@turnkey/sdk-react-native


The @turnkey/sdk-react-native package simplifies the integration of the Turnkey API into React Native applications. It provides secure session management, authentication, and cryptographic operations.

---

Installation

- Install the following dependencies in your React Native project:
- react-native-keychain
- react-native-inappbrowser-reborn
- react-native-passkey
- @turnkey/api-key-stamper
- @turnkey/crypto
- @turnkey/http
- @turnkey/react-native-passkey-stamper
- @turnkey/sdk-react-native (this package)
- Ensure your app is properly configured for secure storage and authentication.
- You must polyfill random byte generation to ensure generateP256KeyPair from @turnkey/crypto works properly by importing react-native-get-random-values at the entry point of your application:

``tsx
import "react-native-get-random-values";
`

⚠️ Android InAppBrowser Bug (Fix Required)

If you're using react-native-inappbrowser-reborn on Android, you may encounter the following build error:

`
Dependency 'androidx.browser:browser:1.9.0-alpha05' requires libraries and applications that
depend on it to compile against version 36 or later of the Android APIs.
`

This is a known issue: GitHub Issue #475

$3

#### For plain React Native:

In your android/build.gradle, add the following:

`groovy
buildscript {
ext {
androidXBrowser = "1.8.0"
}
}
`

#### For Expo:

Run:

`bash
npx expo install expo-gradle-ext-vars
`

Then update your app.json (or app.config.js) to include:

`json
{
"plugins": [
[
"expo-gradle-ext-vars",
{
"androidXBrowser": "1.8.0"
}
]
]
}
`

Usage

$3

`tsx
import { TurnkeyProvider } from "@turnkey/sdk-react-native";
import { useRouter } from "expo-router";
import React from "react";

export const AppProviders = ({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) => {
const router = useRouter();

const turnkeyConfig = {
apiBaseUrl: "https://api.turnkey.com",
organizationId: "",
onInitialized: () => {
console.log("Context initialized");
},
onSessionEmpty: () => {
console.log("No active session on app launch");
},
onSessionCreated: (session) => {
console.log("Session Created", session);
},
onSessionSelected: (session) => {
console.log("Session Selected", session);
router.replace("/dashboard");
},
onSessionExpired: (session) => {
console.log("Session Expired", session);
router.push("/");
},
onSessionCleared: (session) => {
console.log("Session Cleared", session);
router.push("/");
},
onSessionExpiryWarning: (session) => {
console.log("Session is expiring in 15 seconds", session);
},
};

return {children};
};
`

Session Storage

To enable secure authentication, the following storage keys are used:

- @turnkey/embedded-key: Stores the private key that corresponds to the public key used when initiating the session request to Turnkey.
- @turnkey/session: Default session storage key, storing the session credentials, including the private key, public key, and expiry time, which are decrypted from the credential bundle after a session is created.
- @turnkey/session-keys: Stores the list of stored session keys.
- @turnkey/selected-session: Stores the currently selected session key.

---

Functions Provided by the Turnkey Provider

$3

- createEmbeddedKey({ storageKey?, isCompressed? }): Generates a new embedded key pair and securely stores the private key.
- If storageKey is provided, the embedded key will be stored under that key in secure storage.
- If isCompressed is set to true, the compressed public key is returned; otherwise, the uncompressed public key is returned.
- This allows for creating different embedded keys for different sessions, which is useful when initiating multiple authentication flows simultaneously.
- createSession({ bundle, expirationSeconds?, sessionKey?, embeddedStorageKey? }): Creates a session. (API Docs)
- If sessionKey is provided, the session will be stored under that key in secure storage.
- If embeddedStorageKey is provided, the session will use the embedded key stored under that service name instead of the default. This allows creating sessions from different embedded keys.
- If no session exists, the first session created is automatically selected.
- If a session with the same sessionKey already exists in secure storage, an error is thrown.
- createSessionFromEmbeddedKey({ subOrganizationId, embeddedKey?, expirationSeconds?, sessionKey? }): Creates a session directly using the embedded private key. (API Docs)
- If embeddedKey is provided, it will be used directly; otherwise, the embedded key will be retrieved from secure storage.
- If sessionKey is provided, the session will be stored under that key in secure storage.
- If embeddedStorageKey is provided, the session will use the embedded key stored under that service name instead of the default. This allows creating sessions from different embedded keys. This is only used if embeddedKey is not provided
- If no session exists, the first session created is automatically selected.
- If a session with the same sessionKey already exists in secure storage, an error is thrown.
- refreshSession({ expirationSeconds?, sessionKey? }): Refreshes and extends the expiration time of an existing session.
- Uses the current session to create a new session with an updated expiration time.
- If sessionKey is not provided, the currently selected session is refreshed.
- If expirationSeconds is not provided, the default expiration time is used.
- setSelectedSession({ sessionKey }): Selects a session by its key (Used when handling multiple sessions).
- clearSession({ sessionKey? }): Removes the specified session from secure storage. If no sessionKey is provided, the currently selected session is removed.
- clearAllSessions(): Clears all sessions from secure storage.

---

$3

- updateUser({ email?, phone? }): Updates the user's email and/or phone number. (API Docs)
- refreshUser(): Fetches the latest user data. (API Docs)

---

$3

- createWallet({ walletName, accounts, mnemonicLength? }): Creates a wallet. (API Docs)
- importWallet({ walletName, mnemonic, accounts }): Imports a wallet. (API Docs)
- exportWallet({ walletId }): Exports a wallet mnemonic. (API Docs)

---

$3

- signRawPayload({ signWith, payload, encoding, hashFunction }): Signs a payload. (API Docs)

---

$3

- handleGoogleOAuth({ clientId, redirectUri, nonce, scheme, onIdToken }): Handles the Google OAuth authentication flow.

---

Handling Multiple Sessions

Most users won't need multiple sessions, but if your app requires switching between multiple sessions, here’s what you need to know:

This SDK supports multiple sessions, allowing you to create and switch between different session keys using setSelectedSession({ sessionKey }). When a session is selected, the client, user, and session information are updated accordingly, so that all subsequent function calls (like updateUser or createWallet) apply to the selected session.

- Creating a Session with a Custom Id: You can pass a sessionKey when calling createSession. If provided, the session will be stored in secure storage under that ID, allowing for multiple sessions.
- Switching Sessions: Use setSelectedSession({ sessionKey }) to switch between stored sessions. The client, user, and session information will automatically update.
- Session Expiry Management: Each session has an expiry time, and expired sessions will be automatically cleared.
- Callbacks for Session Events:
- onInitialized: Called once context initialization is complete.
- onSessionEmpty: Called when there is no active session on app launch.
- onSessionCreated: Called when a session is created.
- onSessionSelected: Called when a session is selected.
- onSessionExpired: Called when a session expires.
- onSessionCleared: Called when a session is cleared.
- onSessionExpiryWarning`: Called 15 seconds before a session expires, giving you an opportunity to refresh the session or notify the user.

When are multiple sessions useful?

Using multiple sessions can be beneficial when enabling different authentication methods for various operations. For example, you might authenticate a user with OTP for login while using a passkey-based session for signing transactions.
