# react-native-android-wake-lock

Native Module for setting a [wake lock](https://developer.android.com/training/scheduling/wakelock) on an Android device. Utilizes both `PowerManager` and `WifiManager`.

## Installation

**Note:** This package requires React Native >=0.60.

Install with npm/yarn.

```bash
npm install react-native-android-wake-lock --save
// or
yarn add react-native-wake-lock
```

Since this package requires RN 0.60 or higher, this package will be linked automatically. If you run into an issue, you can try `react-native link react-native-android-wake-lock`.

## Usage

Make sure to request the wake lock permission. Add the following inside the project manifest (`android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml`):

```xml

```

This module exposes 2 possible methods for accessing the wake lock: via an interface object or a React hook. Depending on your use case, one or the other should suffice.

```js
import React from "react";
import { WakeLockInterface, useWakeLock } from "react-native-android-wake-lock";

// the interface exposes all 3 (async) methods
const isWakeLocked = WakeLockInterface.isWakeLocked();
// these 2 aren't necessary if you're using the hook
const setWakeLock = WakeLockInterface.setWakeLock();
const releaseWakeLock = WakeLockInterface.releaseWakeLock();

// you can also use the hook to set/release a wake lock on component mount/unmount
const Component = () => {
const [wakeLocked, setWakeLocked] = useState(isWakeLocked);

// you can use the `isWakeLocked` method from the interface to check whether or not the wake lock is set
useEffect(() => {
console.log(wakeLocked);
}, [wakeLocked]);

useWakeLock();

return ;
};
```

## API

The interface has 3 methods:

- **`setWakeLock(): Promise`** - sets both the WakeLock and WifiLock
- **`releaseWakeLock(): Promise`** - releases both the WakeLock and WifiLock
- **`isWakeLocked(): Promise`** - whether or not the wake/wifi locks are held
