CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Objective-C, which automates and simplifies the process of using 3rd-party libraries like BlinkID in your projects.
- If you wish to use version v1.4.0 or above, you need to install Git Large File Storage by running these comamnds:
brew install git-lfs
git lfs install
- Be sure to restart your console after installing Git LFS
From react-native 0.60 CocoaPods are now part of React Native's iOS project.
Go to NameOfYourProject/ios
folder and install Pods
pod install
Our blinkid-react-native

pod so it will be installed automatically.
To run iOS application, open NameOfYourProject.xcworkspace, set Your team for every Target in General settings and add Privacy - Camera Usage Description key to Your info.plist file and press run

Step by step guide how to start blinkid-reactnative demo app. A tutorial flows from cloning repository via git clone to successfully deployed demo application on Android and iOS device with real-time screen mirroring. Application demo contains the simple use of USDL recognizer with Ontario drivers license card.
This video tutorial describes how to use documentVerificationOverlay with UsdlCombinedRecognizer. DocumentVerificationOverlay is overlay for RecognizerRunnerFragment best suited for combined recognizers because it manages scanning of multiple document sides in the single camera opening and guides the user through the scanning process. It can also be used for single side scanning of ID cards, passports, driver’s licenses, etc
To use the module you call it in your index.android.js or index.ios.js file like in the example app. Available recognizers and API documentation is available in JS API files.
Can I create a custom UI overlay?
Yes you can, but you will have to implement it natively for android and ios, you can see native implementation guides here(Android) and here(ios).
