class="markdown"><p>Welcome to Native Modules for Android. Please start by reading the <a href="/docs/native-modules-intro">Native Modules Intro</a> for an intro to what native modules are.</p><h2><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_E4oP" id="create-a-calendar-native-module"></a>Create a Calendar Native Module<a class="hash-link" href="#create-a-calendar-native-module" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h2><p>In the following guide you will create a native module, <code>CalendarModule</code>, that will allow you to access Android’s calendar APIs from JavaScript. By the end, you will be able to call <code>CalendarModule.createCalendarEvent(&#x27;Dinner Party&#x27;, &#x27;My House&#x27;);</code> from JavaScript, invoking a Java method that creates a calendar event.</p><blockquote><p>The React Native team is currently working on a re-architecture of the Native Module system. This new system is called TurboModules, and it will help facilitate more efficient type-safe communication between JavaScript and native, without relying on the React Native bridge. It will also enable new extensions that weren&#x27;t possible with the legacy Native Module system. You can read more about it <a href="https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/issues/40" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>. Throughout these docs we have added notes around parts of Native Modules that will change in the TurboModules release and how you can best prepare for a smooth upgrade to TurboModules.</p></blockquote><h3><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_E4oP" id="setup"></a>Setup<a class="hash-link" href="#setup" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h3><p>To get started, open up the Android project within your React Native application in Android Studio. You can find your Android project here within a React Native app:</p><figure><img src="/docs/assets/native-modules-android-open-project.png" width="500" alt="Image of opening up an Android project within a React Native app inside of Android Studio."><figcaption>Image of where you can find your Android project</figcaption></figure><p>We recommend using Android Studio to write your native code.

Using <code>ReactContextBaseJavaModule</code> will also make it easier to make your native module type-safe in the future.

It then instantiates <code>CalendarModule</code> within the <code>createNativeModules()</code> function and returns it as a list of <code>NativeModules</code> to register. If you add more native modules down the line, you can also instantiate them and add them to the list returned here.</p><blockquote><p>It is worth noting that this way of registering native modules eagerly initializes all native modules when the application starts, which adds to the startup time of an application. You can use <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/master/ReactAndroid/src/main/java/com/facebook/react/TurboReactPackage.java" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TurboReactPackage</a> as an alternative. Instead of <code>createNativeModules</code>, which return a list of instantiated native module objects, TurboReactPackage implements a <code>getModule(String name, ReactApplicationContext rac)</code> method that creates the native module object, when required. TurboReactPackage is a bit more complicated to implement at the moment. In addition to implementing a <code>getModule()</code> method, you have to implement a <code>getReactModuleInfoProvider()</code> method, which returns a list of all the native modules the package can instantiate along with a function that instantiates them, example <a href="https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/8ac467c51b94c82d81930b4802b2978c85539925/ReactAndroid/src/main/java/com/facebook/react/CoreModulesPackage.java#L86-L165" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>. Again, using TurboReactPackage will allow your application to have a faster startup time, but it is currently a bit cumbersome to write. So proceed with caution if you choose to use TurboReactPackages.</p></blockquote><p>To register the <code>CalendarModule</code> package, you must add <code>MyAppPackage</code> to the list of packages returned in ReactNativeHost&#x27;s <code>getPackages()</code> method.

This is because the code that you are writing sits within the native part of your application. While React Native’s metro bundler can watch for changes in JavaScript and rebuild on the fly for you, it will not do so for native code. So if you want to test your latest native changes you need to rebuild by using the <code>npx react-native run-android</code> command.</p><h3><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_E4oP" id="recap"></a>Recap✨<a class="hash-link" href="#recap" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h3><p>You should now be able to invoke your <code>createCalendarEvent()</code> method on your native module in the app. In our example this occurs by pressing the <code>NewModuleButton</code>.

You can follow <a href="https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/am-logcat.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">these steps</a> to view ADB logs in your app. You should then be able to search for your <code>Log.d</code> message (in our example “Create event called with name: testName and location: testLocation”) and see your message logged each time you invoke your native module method.</p><figure><img src="/docs/assets/native-modules-android-logs.png" width="1000" alt="Image of logs."><figcaption>Image of ADB logs in Android Studio</figcaption></figure><p>At this point you have created an Android native module and invoked its native method from JavaScript in your React Native application.

Please avoid using them:</p><ul><li>Integer -&gt; ?number</li><li>int -&gt; number</li><li>Float -&gt; ?number</li><li>float -&gt; number</li></ul></blockquote><p>For argument types not listed above, you will need to handle the conversion yourself. For example, in Android, <code>Date</code> conversion is not supported out of the box. You can handle the conversion to the <code>Date</code> type within the native method yourself like so:</p><div class="mdxCodeBlock_1daz"><div class="codeBlockContent_2es_"><div tabindex="0" class="prism-code language-java codeBlock_27aQ thin-scrollbar"><div class="codeBlockLines_2rCb" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> String dateFormat = &quot;yyyy-MM-dd&quot;;</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(dateFormat);</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> Calendar eStartDate = Calendar.getInstance();</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> try {</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> eStartDate.setTime(sdf.parse(startDate));</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain"> }</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain" style="display:inline-block">

This will no longer be supported with TurboModules, so we encourage the community to switch to the above approach to avoid necessary migration down the line.</p><blockquote><p>That currently constants are exported only at initialization time, so if you change getConstants values at runtime it won&#x27;t affect the JavaScript environment. This will change with Turbomodules. With Turbomodules, <code>getConstants()</code> will become a regular native module method, and each invocation will hit the native side.</p></blockquote><h3><a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" class="anchor enhancedAnchor_E4oP" id="callbacks"></a>Callbacks<a class="hash-link" href="#callbacks" title="Direct link to heading">#</a></h3><p>Native modules also support a unique kind of argument: a callback. Callbacks are used to pass data from Java to JavaScript for asynchronous methods. They can also be used to asynchronously execute JavaScript from the native side.</p><p>In order to create a native module method with a callback, first import the <code>Callback</code> interface, and then add a new parameter to your native module method of type <code>Callback</code>. There are a couple of nuances with callback arguments that will soon be lifted with TurboModules. First off, you can only have two callbacks in your function arguments- a successCallback and a failureCallback. In addition, the last argument to a native module method call, if it&#x27;s a function, is treated as the successCallback, and the second to last argument to a native module method call, if it&#x27;s a function, is treated as the failure callback.</p><div class="mdxCodeBlock_1daz"><div class="codeBlockContent_2es_"><div tabindex="0" class="prism-code language-java codeBlock_27aQ thin-scrollbar"><div class="codeBlockLines_2rCb" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain">import com.facebook.react.bridge.Callback;</span></div><div class="token-line" style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#282C34"><span class="token plain" style="display:inline-block">

Please note that you can only pass serializable data from native code to JavaScript. If you need to pass back a native object you can use <code>WriteableMaps</code>, if you need to use a collection use <code>WritableArrays</code>. It is also important to highlight that the callback is not invoked immediately after the native function completes. Below the ID of an event created in an earlier call is passed to the callback.</p><div class="mdxCodeBlock_1daz"><div class="codeBlockContent_2es_"><div tabindex="0" class="prism-code language-java

A native module can, however, store the callback and invoke it later.</p><p>There are two approaches to error handling with callbacks.

A native module can, however, store the callback and invoke it later.</p></blockquote><p>The JavaScript counterpart of this method returns a Promise.

The module must implement <code>LifecycleEventListener</code>. Then, you need to register a listener in the module&#x27;s constructor like so:</p><div class="mdxCodeBlock_1daz"><div class="codeBlockContent_2es_"><div tabindex="0" class="prism-code language-jsx
