Here is my videocall screen:

import React from 'react';
import { View } from 'react-native';
import JitsiMeet, { JitsiMeetView } from 'react-native-jitsi-meet';

class VideoCallScreen extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.onConferenceTerminated = this.onConferenceTerminated.bind(this);
    this.onConferenceJoined = this.onConferenceJoined.bind(this);
    this.onConferenceWillJoin = this.onConferenceWillJoin.bind(this);
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    setTimeout(() => {
      // this.setState({data:this.props.navigation.state.params.data});  
      const url = this.props.navigation.state.params.callUrl;
      var isAudio = this.props.navigation.state.params.isAudio;

      console.log("VideoCallScreen url: " + url+" & isAudio: " + isAudio);

      if(isAudio){
        JitsiMeet.audioCall(url);
      } else {
        JitsiMeet.call(url);
      }
      /* You can programmatically end the call with JitsiMeet.endCall() */
    }, 1000);
  }

  onConferenceTerminated(nativeEvent) {
    /* Conference terminated event */
    console.log('onConferenceTerminated');
  }

  onConferenceJoined(nativeEvent) {
    /* Conference joined event */
    console.log('onConferenceJoined');
  }

  onConferenceWillJoin(nativeEvent) {
    /* Conference will join event */
    console.log('onConferenceWillJoin');
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <View style={{ backgroundColor: 'black',flex: 1 }}>
        <JitsiMeetView onConferenceTerminated={this.onConferenceTerminated} onConferenceJoined={this.onConferenceJoined} onConferenceWillJoin={this.onConferenceWillJoin} style={{ flex: 1, height: '100%', width: '100%' }} />
      </View>
    );
  }
}
export default VideoCallScreen;

Here is the code of button click:

var url = "https://my.url.app/" + finalName;
var {navigate} = this.props.navigation;
navigate('VideoCallScreen', {callUrl:url, isAudio:this.state.isAudioEnable})

Please help me where I am going wrong. Any help will be appreciated.

EDIT

Now, according to react-native-jitsi-meet manual installation guidelines, I added below code to my app/build.gradle:

project.ext.react = [
    entryFile: "index.js",
    bundleAssetName: "app.bundle",// This line
]

Added this code to MainApplication.java:

@Override
          protected @Nullable String getBundleAssetName() {
              return "app.bundle";
          }

Now, app is always crashes on start with this logs:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to load script. Make sure you're either running a Metro server (run 'react-native start') or that your bundle 'app.bundle' is packaged correctly for release.

Any solution for this error?

Answer 1

As we have provided bundleAssetName: "app.bundle" . I have used the following script on my package.json and the error is resolved.

"debug-build": "react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/app.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res/ && cd android && ./gradlew assembleDebug && cd .. && rm -rf android/app/src/main/res/drawable-* && rm -rf android/app/src/main/res/raw/* && rm -rf android/app/src/main/assets/*",

Project dependencies:

"react": "16.11.0", "react-native": "0.62.2", "react-native-jitsi-meet": "^2.1.1"
