Example
// See ./example folder for details
import React from 'react'
import { StyleSheet, View } from 'react-native'
import LinkedInModal from 'react-native-linkedin'
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#fff',
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
},
})
export default class AppContainer extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<LinkedInModal
clientID="[ Your client id from https://www.linkedin.com/developer/apps ]"
clientSecret="[ Your client secret from https://www.linkedin.com/developer/apps ]"
redirectUri="[ Your redirect uri set into https://www.linkedin.com/developer/apps ]"
onSuccess={token => console.log(token)}
/>
</View>
)
}
}
Security
Please note that you should give your linkedin client id and you secret key to the component. You should be aware that key can be found if you store it directly to your code. I strongly recommand to not declare both on your code but found a way to keep it secret (ie. get it from server, encrypt it, ...)
Roadmap & TODOs
- Better style for modal: border, padding, transparency
- Button to close the modal
- Better catch of error into login url
- Add gif example in README
