React Native

SDK Version

Latest GlobalPass Android SDK version: 2.0.5

Requirements
  • AndroidX
  • API level 23 (Android 6.0) or higher
  • Kotlin 1.7.20 or higher

1. Connect GlobalPass SDK

a. Add this code to the Project level build.gradle file under allprojects -> repositories section:

build.gradle

/* GlobalPass SDK Maven Repository */
maven {
url 'https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/isun-ag/GlobalPassApp-Public/_packaging/GlobalPassAndroidSDK/maven/v1'
}

/* FaceTec SDK Maven Private Repository */
maven {
url 'https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/isun-ag/GlobalPassApp/_packaging/facetecandroid/maven/v1'
name 'facetecandroid'
credentials {
username "isun-ag"
password "<token>"
}
}
info

To get a <token> value used above, please contact GlobalPass support.

b. Add this code to the App level build.gradle file under dependencies:

build.gradle

implementation 'ch.globalpass.sdk:release:2.0.5'

c. Sync gradle

caution

If you use ProGuard in your project you should include these rules:

-keep class ch.globalpass.globalpasssdk.domain.model.** { *; }
-keep class ch.globalpass.globalpasssdk.data.networkmodels.** {*; }
-keep class org.jmrtd.** {*; }

-keep class net.sf.scuba.** {*; }
-keep class org.bouncycastle.** {*; }
-keep class org.spongycastle.** {*; }
-keep class org.ejbca.** {*; }

-dontwarn javax.annotation.Nullable
-dontwarn com.facetec.sdk.**
-keep class com.facetec.sdk.** { *; }

2. Create Native module to communicate with React Native

Official documentation: React Native Native Modules

a. Create interface with functions you need in your module e.g.:

interface GPFacade

interface GPFacade {
@ReactMethod
fun buildKYCProd(token: String, promise: Promise)

@ReactMethod
fun buildKYCDev(token: String, promise: Promise)

@ReactMethod
fun buildIBProd(token: String, promise: Promise)

@ReactMethod
fun buildIBDev(token: String, promise: Promise)
}

b. Create an implementation of your interface. Also, you need to extend

class GlobalPassSDKManager(
reactContext: ReactApplicationContext,
) : ReactContextBaseJavaModule(reactContext), GPFacade {

@ReactMethod
override fun buildKYCProd(token: String, promise: Promise) {
try {
GlobalPassSDK
.create(requireNotNull(currentActivity))
.start(
token = token,
activity = currentActivity!!::class.java,
environment = GlobalPassEnvironment.Prod
)

promise.resolve(token)
} catch (e: Exception) {
promise.reject(e)
}
}

@ReactMethod
override fun buildKYCDev(token: String, promise: Promise) {
try {
GlobalPassSDK
.create(requireNotNull(currentActivity))
.start(
token = token,
activity = currentActivity!!::class.java,
environment = GlobalPassEnvironment.Dev
)
promise.resolve(token)
} catch (e: Exception) {
promise.reject(e)
}
}

override fun buildIBProd(biometricsId: String, promise: Promise) {
try {
GlobalPassSDK
.create(requireNotNull(currentActivity))
.start(
token = biometricsId,
activity = currentActivity!!::class.java,
environment = GlobalPassEnvironment.Prod,
flow = GlobalPassFlow.InstantBiometrics
)
promise.resolve(biometricsId)
} catch (e: Exception) {
promise.reject(e)
}
}

override fun buildIBDev(biometricsId: String, promise: Promise) {
try {
GlobalPassSDK
.create(requireNotNull(currentActivity))
.start(
token = biometricsId,
activity = currentActivity!!::class.java,
environment = GlobalPassEnvironment.Dev,
flow = GlobalPassFlow.InstantBiometrics
)
promise.resolve(biometricsId)
} catch (e: Exception) {
promise.reject(e)
}
}

override fun getName(): String = "GPFacade"
}

c. Implement ReactPackage interface:

public class GlobalPassPackage implements ReactPackage {

@NonNull
@Override
public List<ViewManager> createViewManagers(@NonNull ReactApplicationContext reactContext) {
return Collections.emptyList();
}

@NonNull
@Override
public List<NativeModule> createNativeModules(
@NonNull ReactApplicationContext reactContext) {
List<NativeModule> modules = new ArrayList<>();
modules.add(new GlobalPassSDKManager(reactContext));
return modules;
}
}

d. Add your Package class to MainApplication.java -> getPackages()

packages.add(new GlobalPassPackage())

3. Connect your module with React Native

Define in App.js your modules:

NativeModules

4. Start KYC flow

You can start KYC process by calling one of the functions.

GPFacade.buildKYCDev(screeningToken);
GPFacade.buildKYCProd(screeningToken);

5. Start Instant Biometrics flow

GPFacade.buildIBProd(screeningToken);
GPFacade.buildIBDev(screeningToken);

6. Additional optional parameters in start() function

There are additional optional parameters in start() function:

ParameterDescription
enableFileLoggerEnable Logger to write SDK logs.
widgetModeSelect matching widget mode if Split flow is used.
externalIdSpecify your internal customer identifier to be set on the screening.
languageCodeSpecify SDK language using available langauage options.
typefaceMapCustomize SDK fonts using your own ones.
flowCallbackProviderFlowCallbackProvider instance to observe flow callbacks.
globalPassSdk.start(
// ...
enableFileLogger = true,
widgetMode: WidgetMode = WidgetMode.FULL_MODE,
externalId: String? = null,
languageCode: String = "en",
typefaceMap: Map<FONT_WEIGHT, Typeface?> = null,
flowCallbackProvider: FlowCallbackProvider? = null
)

enableFileLogger

There is an optional Logger that writes logs into a file which could be found in Internal Storage:

File Storage → Android → data → “your app package” → files → logs → logs file

It is optional and false by default. To enable the logger you need to set it to true.

widgetMode

To use Split flow, matching widgetMode must be selected. By default, it is set to FULL_MODE. To select mode you can use sealed class WidgetMode

enum class WidgetMode

enum class WidgetMode(val value: String?) {
SPLIT_IDENTITY_MODE(value = "Identity"),
SPLIT_ADDRESS_MODE(value = "Address"),
FULL_MODE(value = null)
}

externalId

You can provide your own customer ID to be assigned to the screening flow. By default value is null.

languageCode

By default, the SDK is displayed in English. To specify a different SDK display language, you can provide the locale code here.

Available locales:

  • en - English
  • de - German
  • es-MX - Spanish
  • it - Italian
  • lt - Lithuanian
  • pt-BR - Portuguese
  • ru - Russian
  • ar - Arabic
  • zh-CN - Chinese Simplified
note

If an unsupported locale will be provided, the SDK will fallback to English.

typefaceMap

To set the font styles used in the GlobalPass SDK, you can utilize the typefaceMap parameter. Currently GlobalPass SDK allows to define regular and semibold font styles. To provide your own fonts you need to define a map that associates enum class FONT_WEIGHT provided by the SDK with its corresponding typeface.

globalPassSdk.start(
// ...
typefaceMap: Map<FONT_WEIGHT, Typeface?> = createTypefaceMap()
)

private fun createTypefaceMap() : Map<FONT_WEIGHT, Typeface?> = mapOf(
FONT_WEIGHT.REGULAR to ResourcesCompat.getFont(applicationContext, R.font.your_regular_font),
FONT_WEIGHT.SEMI_BOLD to ResourcesCompat.getFont(applicationContext, R.font.your_semibold_font)
)

Parameter typefaceMap is optional and null by default.

flowCallbackProvider

Creating and providing instance of FlowCallbackProvider allows reacting to different widget flow events:

  • onScreenOpened(screenName: String) when widget is opened,
  • onFlowCanceled() when widget flow is canceled (exited) by the applicant without completing it,
  • onFlowFinished() when widget flow is completed.
globalPassSdk.start(
// ...
flowCallbackProvider = FlowCallbackProviderImpl.flowCallbackProvider
)

object FlowCallbackProviderImpl {
val flowCallbackProvider = object : FlowCallbackProvider {
override fun onScreenOpened(screenName: String) {
Log.d("FLOW_CALLBACK_CHECK", "$screenName opened")
}

override fun onFlowCanceled() {
Log.d("FLOW_CALLBACK_CHECK", "Flow was cancelled")
}

override fun onFlowFinished() {
Log.d("FLOW_CALLBACK_CHECK", "Flow was finished")
}
}
}

Parameter flowCallbackProvider is optional and null by default.
