react-native-get-sms-android

Module that gets all the messages from android

$ yarn add react-native-get-sms-android

Usage

List SMS Messages

import SmsAndroid  from 'react-native-get-sms-android';

/* List SMS messages matching the filter */
var filter = {
    box: 'inbox', // 'inbox' (default), 'sent', 'draft', 'outbox', 'failed', 'queued', and '' for all
    // the next 4 filters should NOT be used together, they are OR-ed so pick one
    read: 0, // 0 for unread SMS, 1 for SMS already read
    _id: 1234, // specify the msg id
    address: '+1888------', // sender's phone number
    body: 'How are you', // content to match
    // the next 2 filters can be used for pagination
    indexFrom: 0, // start from index 0
    maxCount: 10, // count of SMS to return each time
};

SmsAndroid.list(JSON.stringify(filter), (fail) => {
        console.log("Failed with this error: " + fail)
    },
    (count, smsList) => {
        console.log('Count: ', count);
        console.log('List: ', smsList);
        var arr = JSON.parse(smsList);

        arr.forEach(function(object){
            console.log("Object: " + obj);
            console.log("-->" + obj.date);
            console.log("-->" + obj.body);
        })
    });

/*

Delete SMS Message

Delete an sms with id. If the message with the specified id does not exist it will fail with error: SMS not found

import SmsAndroid  from 'react-native-get-sms-android';

SmsAndroid.delete(_id, (fail) => {
    console.log("Failed with this error: " + fail)
}, (success) => {
    console.log("SMS deleted successfully");
});

Send SMS Message (automatically)

Send an sms directy with react without user interaction.

import SmsAndroid  from 'react-native-get-sms-android';

SmsAndroid.autoSend(phoneNumber, message, (fail) => {
    console.log("Failed with this error: " + fail)
}, (success) => {
    console.log("SMS sent successfully");
});

Event listeners

An event will be thrown when the sms has been delivered. If the sms was delivered successfully the message will be "SMS delivered" otherwise the message will be "SMS not delivered"

    import { DeviceEventEmitter } from 'react-native';

     DeviceEventEmitter.addListener('sms_onDelivery', (msg) => {
      console.log(msg); 
    });
