feathers-react-native-chat

A React Native example chat app using Feathers that talks with the feathers-chat server.

Getting Started

1. Make sure you have NodeJS and npm installed.

2. Clone down the repository

3. Install react native CLI

   npm install -g react-native-cli
   

4. Install your dependencies

   cd path/to/feathers-react-native-chat; npm install
   

5. Start the feathers-chat server.

6. Start the iOS app

   react-native run-ios
   

7. Start the Android app

   react-native run-android
   

For IOS, alternatively run npm start on react native app (start React packager), then open+run the native app from Xcode (to launch on simulator or whichever device you like).

If you run into issues starting the apps please refer to the React Native docs. It's most likely a problem with your environment.

Database

You can clear the database on the server by running rm data/*.db from the root folder of feathers-chat. This will remove all messages and users and give you a fresh start.
