    </array>

Next installation steps for Android

  1. Open up android/app/src/main/java/[...]/MainApplication.java
    • Add import com.audioStreaming.ReactNativeAudioStreamingPackage; to the imports at the top of the file
    • Add new ReactNativeAudioStreamingPackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method If you're using Android 23 or above
    • Add new ReactNativeAudioStreamingPackage(MainActivity.class) to he list returned by the getPackages()method instead.
  2. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:
    include ':react-native-audio-streaming'
    project(':react-native-audio-streaming').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir,  '../node_modules/react-native-audio-streaming/android')
  3. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:
      compile project(':react-native-audio-streaming')
  4. If using Proguard then insert the following rules:
    -keep class com.spoledge.aacdecoder.** {
    *;
    }

Usage

Playing sound (similar code used by the player UI)

import { ReactNativeAudioStreaming } from 'react-native-audio-streaming';

const url = "http://lacavewebradio.chickenkiller.com:8000/stream.mp3";
ReactNativeAudioStreaming.pause();
ReactNativeAudioStreaming.resume();
ReactNativeAudioStreaming.play(url, {showIniOSMediaCenter: true, showInAndroidNotifications: true});
ReactNativeAudioStreaming.stop();

For more information see the Example app.

Player UI

import { Player } from 'react-native-audio-streaming';

class PlayerUI extends Component {
  render() {

Since symlink support is still lacking on React Native, I use the wml cli tool created by the nice folks at wix.
