`Usage
1. In your React Native javascript code, bring in the native module:
`javascript`
import FilePickerManager from 'react-native-file-picker';
2. Use it like so:
When you want to display the picker:
`javascript
FilePickerManager.showFilePicker(null, (response) => {
console.log('Response = ', response);
if (response.didCancel) {
console.log('User cancelled file picker');
}
else if (response.error) {
console.log('FilePickerManager Error: ', response.error);
}
else {
this.setState({
file: response
});
}
});
