@zbdpay/ramp-react-native

React Native wrapper for ZBD Ramp widget that enables Bitcoin Lightning Network payments in React Native applications.

Features

• ✅ React Native Optimized: Built specifically for React Native with WebView
• ✅ TypeScript Support: Full type safety with comprehensive TypeScript definitions
• ✅ Cross-Platform: Works on iOS and Android
• ✅ Ref API: Access to WebView methods and ramp instance
• ✅ Hook Support: useZBDRamp hook for programmatic usage

Installation

npm install @zbdpay/ramp-react-native react-native-webview
# or
yarn add @zbdpay/ramp-react-native react-native-webview

iOS Setup

1. Install CocoaPods dependencies:

cd ios && pod install

2. Add Privacy Permissions to Info.plist:

Add the following entries to your ios/{YourAppName}/Info.plist:

<!-- Essential permissions for ZBD Ramp WebView -->
<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>ZBD Ramp needs camera access for document verification and identity verification processes.</string>

<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>ZBD Ramp needs microphone access for liveness detection during identity verification.</string>

<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>ZBD Ramp needs photo library access to upload documents for verification purposes.</string>

<key>NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription</key>
<string>ZBD Ramp may save verification photos to your photo library.</string>

Note: These permissions are required for the ZBD Ramp widget to access device features like camera (document verification) and microphone (liveness detection) within the WebView context. You can customize the permission descriptions to match your app's language and privacy policy.

Android Setup

Add the following permissions to your android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<!-- Essential permissions for ZBD Ramp WebView -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

These permissions are required to prevent permissions_unavailable errors that can occur when the ZBD Ramp widget tries to access device features (camera for document verification, microphone for liveness detection, etc.) within the WebView context.

Quick Start for Development

1. Clone and Setup

# Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd ramp-iframe/ramp-react-native

# Install package dependencies (for the wrapper package)
npm install

# Navigate to example React Native app
cd example

# Install example app dependencies
npm install

# For iOS - install pods
cd ios && pod install && cd ..

2. Run Example App

The repository includes a complete React Native example app in the example/ folder:

# Navigate to example app
cd example

# Install example dependencies
npm install

# For iOS - install pods
cd ios && pod install && cd ..

# Start Metro bundler (in separate terminal)
npm start

# iOS (in another terminal)
npm run ios

# Android (in another terminal)
npm run android

The example app provides:

• Session Token Creation: Built-in API integration to create session tokens
• Debug Logging: Real-time logging of widget events and interactions
• Full Integration: Complete ZBDRamp component with all event handlers
• Error Handling: Comprehensive error display and logging

3. Alternative: Create Your Own App

To integrate ZBD Ramp into your existing React Native app:

# Install the package
npm install @zbdpay/ramp-react-native react-native-webview

# For iOS - install pods
cd ios && pod install && cd ..

Then import and use in your app:

import { ZBDRamp } from '@zbdpay/ramp-react-native';

<ZBDRamp
  sessionToken="your-session-token"
  onSuccess={(data) => console.log('Success:', data)}
  onError={(error) => console.error('Error:', error)}
  style={{ flex: 1 }}
/>

Quick Start

1. Create Session Token

First, create a session token using the built-in initRampSession function:

import { initRampSession, QuoteCurrencyEnum, BaseCurrencyEnum } from '@zbdpay/ramp-react-native';

// Using email authentication
const response = await initRampSession({
  apikey: 'your-zbd-api-key',
  email: '[email protected]',
  destination: 'lightning-address-or-username',
  quote_currency: QuoteCurrencyEnum.USD,
  base_currency: BaseCurrencyEnum.BTC,
  webhook_url: 'https://your-webhook-url.com',
});

// Or using access token authentication
const response = await initRampSession({
  apikey: 'your-zbd-api-key',
  access_token: 'user-access-token',
  destination: 'lightning-address-or-username',
  quote_currency: QuoteCurrencyEnum.USD,
  base_currency: BaseCurrencyEnum.BTC,
  webhook_url: 'https://your-webhook-url.com',
});

const sessionToken = response.data.session_token;

2. Use ZBDRamp Component

import React from 'react';
import { View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import { ZBDRamp } from '@zbdpay/ramp-react-native';

function App() {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <ZBDRamp
        sessionToken="your-session-token"
        onSuccess={(data) => console.log('Success:', data)}
        onError={(error) => console.error('Error:', error)}
        onStepChange={(step) => console.log('Step:', step)}
        style={styles.webview}
      />
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
  },
  webview: {
    flex: 1,
  },
});

Debug and Development

Enable debugging by adding logging callbacks and WebView event handlers:

<ZBDRamp
  sessionToken="your-session-token"
  onLog={(log) => {
    console.log(`[${log.level.toUpperCase()}] ${log.message}`, log.data);
  }}
  webViewProps={{
    // Enable debugging
    onLoadStart={() => console.log('WebView load started')}
    onLoadEnd={() => console.log('WebView load ended')}
    onError={(error) => console.error('WebView error:', error)}
  }}
/>

Access Token Refresh

If you're using access token authentication, you can refresh expired tokens using the refreshAccessToken function:

import { refreshAccessToken } from '@zbdpay/ramp-react-native';

const handleRefreshToken = async () => {
  try {
    const response = await refreshAccessToken({
      apikey: 'your-zbd-api-key',
      access_token_id: 'user-access-token-id',
      refresh_token: 'user-refresh-token',
    });
    
    if (response.success) {
      const newAccessToken = response.data.access_token;
      const newRefreshToken = response.data.refresh_token;
      // Store the new tokens securely
      console.log('Token refreshed successfully');
    } else {
      console.error('Token refresh failed:', response.error);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error refreshing token:', error);
  }
};

  const unmountWidget = () => {
    rampRef.current?.unmount();
  };

  const destroyWidget = () => {
    rampRef.current?.destroy();
  };

  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <View style={styles.controls}>

        </TouchableOpacity>
        
        <TouchableOpacity style={styles.button} onPress={destroyWidget}>
          <Text style={styles.buttonText}>Destroy</Text>
        </TouchableOpacity>
      </View>
      
      <ZBDRamp
        ref={rampRef}
        sessionToken="your-session-token"
        onSuccess={(data) => console.log('Success:', data)}
        onError={(error) => console.error('Error:', error)}
        style={styles.webview}
      />
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
  },
  controls: {
    flexDirection: 'row',
    justifyContent: 'space-around',
