Platform Setup

Complete the platform-specific setup to enable DOTA updates in your app.

Android Setup​

In order to integrate DOTA into your Android project, perform the following steps:

  1. Edit android/settings.gradle and add the DOTA module:
// ...
include ':app', ':d11_dota'
project(':d11_dota').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@d11/dota/android/app')
  1. In android/app/build.gradle, add the dependency:
dependencies {
    // ...
    implementation project(':d11_dota')
    // ...
}
  1. In android/app/build.gradle, apply the DOTA build tasks at the end of the file:
// ...
apply from: "../../node_modules/@d11/dota/android/codepush.gradle"
// ...
  1. Update MainApplication to use DOTA:
// 1. Import the plugin class.
import com.microsoft.codepush.react.CodePush

class MainApplication : Application(), ReactApplication {
  override val reactNativeHost: ReactNativeHost =
    object : DefaultReactNativeHost(this) {
      // ...

      // 2. Add DOTA package for manual linking
      add(
        CodePush.getInstance(
          resources.getString(R.string.CodePushDeploymentKey),
          applicationContext,
          BuildConfig.DEBUG
        )
      )

      // 3. Let DOTA determine the JS bundle location on each start
      override fun getJSBundleFile(): String {
        return CodePush.getJSBundleFile()
      }
    }
}
  1. Add the deployment key and server URL to strings.xml:
<resources>
    <!-- ... -->
    <string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushDeploymentKey">DeploymentKey</string>
    <string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushServerUrl"><server-url></string>
</resources>
Deployment Key

  1. Disable autolinking for @d11/dota by creating react-native.config.js at the app root:
module.exports = {
  dependencies: {
    '@d11/dota': {
      platforms: {
        android: null,
      },
    },
  },
};
