@more-tech/react-native-libsodium

React Native bindings to Libsodium matching the libsodium-wrappers package API

Supported Platforms:

- iOS
- Android
- Web

Currently only a subset of the libsodium-wrappers exposed functionality is implemented. For missing functionality we welcome pull-requests or you can sponsor the development. Get in touch with us at hi@serenity.re.

Installation Expo (dev-client)

This package support the Expo plugin system and can be used together with the Expo dev-client.

``sh
npm install @more-tech/react-native-libsodium
`

Extend app.config.js with the following plugins entry:

`js
export default {
expo: {
…
plugins: [["@more-tech/react-native-libsodium", {}]],
}
}
`

Installation React Native

`sh
npm install @more-tech/react-native-libsodium
cd ios && pod install
`

React Native Web

For the web platform the constants and functions from the libsodium-wrappers package is exposed. This also means you need to wait for the ready Promise to be resolved before using any constant or function.

Certain constants and functions e.g. crypto_pwhash are only available in the libsodium-wrappers-sumo package. To load this package instead for web you can call loadSumoVersion right after importing the package.

`ts
import { loadSumoVersion, ready } from '@more-tech/react-native-libsodium';

loadSumoVersion();
`
