## react-native-orientation
Listen to device orientation changes in react-native and set preferred orientation on screen to screen basis.

### Installation

#### via rnpm

Run `rnpm install react-native-orientation`

> Note: rnpm will install and link the library automatically.

#### via npm

Run `npm install react-native-orientation --save`

### Linking

#### Using rnpm (iOS + Android)

`rnpm link react-native-orientation`

#### Using [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org) (iOS Only)

`pod 'react-native-orientation', :path => 'node_modules/react-native-orientation'`

Consult the React Native documentation on how to [install React Native using CocoaPods](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/embedded-app-ios.html#install-react-native-using-cocoapods).

#### Manually

**iOS**

1. Add `node_modules/react-native-orientation/iOS/RCTOrientation.xcodeproj` to your xcode project, usually under the `Libraries` group
1. Add `libRCTOrientation.a` (from `Products` under `RCTOrientation.xcodeproj`) to build target's `Linked Frameworks and Libraries` list

**Android**

1. In `android/setting.gradle`

```
...
include ':react-native-orientation', ':app'
project(':react-native-orientation').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-orientation/android')
```

2. In `android/app/build.gradle`

```
...
dependencies {
...
compile project(':react-native-orientation')
}
```

3. Register module (in MainApplication.java)

```
import com.github.yamill.orientation.OrientationPackage; // <--- import

public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
......

@Override
protected List getPackages() {
return Arrays.asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new OrientationPackage() <------- Add this
);
}

......

}
```

### Configuration

#### iOS

Add the following to your project's `AppDelegate.m`:

```objc
#import "Orientation.h" // <--- import

@implementation AppDelegate

// ...

- (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window {
return [Orientation getOrientation];
}

@end
```

## Usage

Whenever you want to use it within React Native code now you can:
`var Orientation = require('react-native-orientation');`

```javascript
_orientationDidChange: function(orientation) {
if (orientation == 'LANDSCAPE') {
//do something with landscape layout
} else {
//do something with portrait layout
}
},

componentWillMount: function() {
//The getOrientation method is async. It happens sometimes that
//you need the orientation at the moment the js starts running on device.
//getInitialOrientation returns directly because its a constant set at the
//beginning of the js code.
var initial = Orientation.getInitialOrientation();
if (initial === 'PORTRAIT') {
//do stuff
} else {
//do other stuff
}
},

componentDidMount: function() {
Orientation.lockToPortrait(); //this will lock the view to Portrait
//Orientation.lockToLandscape(); //this will lock the view to Landscape
//Orientation.unlockAllOrientations(); //this will unlock the view to all Orientations

Orientation.addOrientationListener(this._orientationDidChange);
},

componentWillUnmount: function() {
Orientation.getOrientation((err,orientation)=> {
console.log("Current Device Orientation: ", orientation);
});
Orientation.removeOrientationListener(this._orientationDidChange);
}
```

## Events

- `addOrientationListener(function(orientation))`

orientation can return either `LANDSCAPE` `PORTRAIT` `UNKNOWN`
also `PORTRAITUPSIDEDOWN` is now different from `PORTRAIT`

- `removeOrientationListener(function(orientation))`

- `addSpecificOrientationListener(function(specificOrientation))`

specificOrientation can return either `LANDSCAPE-LEFT` `LANDSCAPE-RIGHT` `PORTRAIT` `UNKNOWN` `PORTRAITUPSIDEDOWN`

- `removeSpecificOrientationListener(function(specificOrientation))`

## Functions

- `lockToPortrait()`
- `lockToLandscape()`
- `lockToLandscapeLeft()`
- `lockToLandscapeRight()`
- `unlockAllOrientations()`
- `getOrientation(function(err, orientation)`

orientation can return either `LANDSCAPE` `PORTRAIT` `UNKNOWN` `PORTRAITUPSIDEDOWN`

- `getSpecificOrientation(function(err, specificOrientation)`

specificOrientation can return either `LANDSCAPE-LEFT` `LANDSCAPE-RIGHT` `PORTRAIT` `UNKNOWN` `PORTRAITUPSIDEDOWN`

## TODOS

- [x] Add some way to allow setting a preferred orientation on a screen by screen basis.
- [x] Make API Cleaner to Orientation Locking
- [x] Android Support
