React Native

The Spyne Automobile SDK brings the AI-guided vehicle photography experience to React Native apps on both iOS and Android.

React Native does not call the SDK directly — each native SDK presents its own camera UI. A React Native app connects to it through a native module bridge: JavaScript sends the shoot details down, the native SDK runs the guided capture, and shoot lifecycle events are emitted back up to JavaScript.

📘

The shoot itself behaves exactly like the native SDKs. This page documents only the React Native-specific bridge and links to the existing docs for everything else.

💡

Sample project: a complete, executable React Native integration is available on GitHub — spyne-react-native-sample. Clone it to see the native module, events, and JS UI wired up end to end.

Architecture

JavaScript (App.tsx)

  • form UI + VIN validation
  • NativeModules.Spyne.start(...)
  • NativeEventEmitter ← onShootInitiated / Completed / Exit

iOS (Swift) → SpyneModule (RCTEventEmitter) + AWS S3 → SpyneAutomobileSDK (Swift Package Manager)

Android (Kotlin) → SpyneModule (ReactContextBaseJavaModule) → SpyneAutomobileSDK (JitPack / Gradle)

The native module is named Spyne on both platforms, so a single JavaScript API serves iOS and Android. Only the native wiring differs.
