v1.1.0 - Modern EventEmitter & Thread-Safe Operations

🎉 What's New in v1.1.0

This release brings significant improvements to @pushpendersingh/react-native-otp-verify, focusing on modernizing event handling, adding thread-safety, and improving overall reliability and debuggability.

✨ Key Features

1. Modern Event Handling Pattern

• Migrated to TurboModule's native EventEmitter - Moved from legacy NativeEventEmitter to CodegenTypes.EventEmitter<SmsMessage>
• Better Performance - Reduced overhead in event emission path
• Type-Safe Events - Full TypeScript support with proper type definitions
• Improved Reliability - Better integration with React Native's new architecture

2. Thread-Safe Receiver Management

• ReentrantLock - Thread-safe receiver registration/unregistration
• AtomicBoolean - Concurrent-safe state tracking
• @volatile Annotations - Cross-thread visibility guarantees
• Race Condition Prevention - Eliminates potential concurrency issues

3. Enhanced Logging & Debugging

• Comprehensive Debug Logs - Track SMS receiver operations
• Warning Logs - Identify edge cases and potential issues
• Error Logs with Stack Traces - Easier troubleshooting and debugging
• Better Developer Experience - More visibility into what's happening

4. Code Quality Improvements

• KDoc Comments - Comprehensive inline documentation
• Better Error Handling - Graceful handling of edge cases
• Cleaner Dependencies - Removed unnecessary dependencies
• Improved Code Organization - More maintainable codebase

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed potential race conditions in receiver registration/unregistration
• Improved cleanup in error scenarios
• Better handling of already-registered receivers
• Proper thread synchronization for concurrent operations

📈 Performance Improvements

• Reduced event emission overhead
• More efficient thread-safe operations
• Better memory management with proper cleanup
• Reduced risk of memory leaks from unregistered receivers

🔄 Breaking Changes

None! This is a fully backward-compatible update. All existing code continues to work without any modifications required.

📦 Installation

npm install @pushpendersingh/react-native-otp-verify@1.1.0

or

yarn add @pushpendersingh/react-native-otp-verify@1.1.0

🚀 Migration Guide

No migration needed! Your existing code will work as-is:

import { addSmsListener, startSmsRetriever } from '@pushpendersingh/react-native-otp-verify';

// This code works exactly the same, but now with better performance
const subscription = addSmsListener((message) => {
  console.log('SMS received:', message);
});

await startSmsRetriever();
