| 51 | +## 📦 Installation |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +```bash |
8 | 54 | npm install react-native-sensitive-info react-native-nitro-modules |
| 55 | +``` |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +or |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +```bash |
| 60 | +yarn add react-native-sensitive-info react-native-nitro-modules |
| 61 | +``` |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +### Platform Setup |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +**iOS**: Navigate to your iOS project and install pods: |
| 66 | +```bash |
| 67 | +cd ios && pod install |
| 68 | +``` |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +**Android**: Automatically linked via Gradle autolinking. |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +--- |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +## 🚀 Quick Start |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +```typescript |
| 77 | +import { |
| 78 | + getItem, |
| 79 | + setItem, |
| 80 | + removeItem, |
| 81 | + getAllItems, |
| 82 | + clear, |
| 83 | +} from 'react-native-sensitive-info'; |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +// 💾 Store sensitive data |
| 86 | +await setItem('userToken', 'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...'); |
| 87 | +await setItem('apiKey', 'sk-1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'); |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +// 🔍 Retrieve sensitive data |
| 90 | +const token = await getItem('userToken'); |
| 91 | +const apiKey = await getItem('apiKey'); |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +// 📋 Get all stored items |
| 94 | +const allSecureData = await getAllItems(); |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +// 🗑️ Remove specific item |
| 97 | +await removeItem('temporaryToken'); |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +// 🧹 Clear all data (logout scenario) |
| 100 | +await clear(); |
| 101 | +``` |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +--- |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +## 📖 API Reference |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +| Method | Description | Return Type | |
| 108 | +|--------|-------------|-------------| |
| 109 | +| `setItem(key, value)` | Store encrypted data | `Promise<void>` | |
| 110 | +| `getItem(key)` | Retrieve decrypted data | `Promise<string \| null>` | |
| 111 | +| `removeItem(key)` | Delete specific item | `Promise<void>` | |
| 112 | +| `getAllItems()` | Get all stored items | `Promise<Record<string, string>>` | |
| 113 | +| `clear()` | Remove all data | `Promise<void>` | |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +### Examples |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +```typescript |
| 118 | +// Store complex data (stringify first) |
| 119 | +await setItem('userProfile', JSON.stringify({ |
| 120 | + id: 123, |
| 121 | + email: 'user@example.com', |
| 122 | + preferences: { theme: 'dark' } |
| 123 | +})); |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +// Retrieve and parse |
| 126 | +const userProfileStr = await getItem('userProfile'); |
| 127 | +const userProfile = userProfileStr ? JSON.parse(userProfileStr) : null; |
9 | 128 |
|
10 | | -> `react-native-nitro-modules` is required as this library relies on [Nitro Modules](https://nitro.margelo.com/). |
| 129 | +// Handle non-existent keys |
| 130 | +const token = await getItem('nonExistentKey'); // Returns null |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +// Process all stored data |
| 133 | +const allData = await getAllItems(); |
| 134 | +Object.entries(allData).forEach(([key, value]) => { |
| 135 | + console.log(`${key}: ${value.substring(0, 20)}...`); |
| 136 | +}); |
11 | 137 | ``` |

| 244 | + |
| 245 | +### Migration Checklist |
| 246 | + |
| 247 | +- [ ] Install `react-native-sensitive-info` |
| 248 | +- [ ] Create migration helper for existing data |
| 249 | +- [ ] Update authentication flows to use new API |
| 250 | +- [ ] Test on both platforms |
| 251 | +- [ ] Remove `react-native-keychain` dependency |
| 252 | +- [ ] Update CI/CD if needed |
| 253 | + |
| 254 | +--- |
| 255 | + |
| 256 | +## 🎯 Common Use Cases |
| 257 | + |
| 258 | +### Authentication & Session Management |
| 259 | +```typescript |
| 260 | +// Login flow |
| 261 | +const handleLogin = async (credentials: LoginCredentials) => { |
| 262 | + const response = await api.login(credentials); |
| 263 | + |
| 264 | + // Store tokens securely |
| 265 | + await setItem('accessToken', response.accessToken); |
| 266 | + await setItem('refreshToken', response.refreshToken); |
| 267 | + await setItem('userSession', JSON.stringify({ |
| 268 | + userId: response.user.id, |
| 269 | + expiresAt: Date.now() + (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000) |
| 270 | + })); |
| 271 | +}; |
| 272 | + |
| 273 | +// Session validation |
| 274 | +const isSessionValid = async (): Promise<boolean> => { |
| 275 | + const sessionStr = await getItem('userSession'); |
| 276 | + if (!sessionStr) return false; |
| 277 | + |
| 278 | + const session = JSON.parse(sessionStr); |
| 279 | + return Date.now() < session.expiresAt; |
| 280 | +}; |
| 281 | + |
| 282 | +// Logout flow |
| 283 | +const handleLogout = async () => { |
| 284 | + await clear(); // Remove all sensitive data |
| 285 | +}; |
| 286 | +``` |
| 287 | + |
| 288 | +### API Keys & Configuration |
| 289 | +```typescript |
| 290 | +// Store environment-specific configs |
| 291 | +await setItem('apiEndpoint', process.env.API_ENDPOINT); |
| 292 | +await setItem('encryptionKey', generateEncryptionKey()); |
| 293 | +await setItem('clientSecret', process.env.CLIENT_SECRET); |
| 294 | + |
| 295 | +// Retrieve for API calls |
| 296 | +const makeSecureRequest = async (endpoint: string) => { |
| 297 | + const apiKey = await getItem('apiKey'); |
| 298 | + const baseUrl = await getItem('apiEndpoint'); |
| 299 | + |
| 300 | + return fetch(`${baseUrl}${endpoint}`, { |
| 301 | + headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${apiKey}` } |
| 302 | + }); |
| 303 | +}; |
| 304 | +``` |
| 305 | + |
| 306 | +--- |
| 307 | + |
| 308 | +## 🔧 Troubleshooting |
| 309 | + |
| 310 | +### Android Issues |
| 311 | +- **StrongBox not available**: Library automatically falls back to regular Keystore |
| 312 | +- **Build errors**: Clean and rebuild with `cd android && ./gradlew clean` |
| 313 | + |
| 314 | +### iOS Issues |
| 315 | +- **Simulator limitations**: Some Keychain features limited on simulator, use real device |
| 316 | +- **CocoaPods issues**: `cd ios && rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock && pod install` |
| 317 | + |
| 318 | +--- |
| 319 | + |
| 320 | +## 📋 Requirements |
| 321 | + |
| 322 | +- **React Native**: 0.70.0+ |
| 323 | +- **iOS**: 11.0+, Xcode 14.0+ |
| 324 | +- **Android**: API 23+, Target API 33+ |
| 325 | +- **Expo**: ❌ Not compatible (requires native modules) |
