  30000,
  {
    channelId: 'com.abc.incomingcall',

    // payload: { name: 'Test', body: 'test' }
  }
);

Hide Notification

The hideNotification function is used to dismiss the current incoming call notification

function hideNotification(): void;

Example Usage:

//example
RNNotificationCall.hideNotification();

Answer Event

The listener to the "answer" event.

`addEventListener` for `answer` Event

The addEventListener function allows listening for an "answer" event when a user answers an incoming call notification.

function addEventListener(eventName: 'answer', handler: (payload: AnswerPayload) => void): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
`eventName`	`'answer'`	The event name, which is set to `'answer'`.	Yes
`handler`	`(payload: AnswerPayload) => void`	Function called when the event is triggered.	Yes

`AnswerPayload` Type

Property	Type	Description	Required
`callUUID`	`string`	Unique identifier for the call.	Yes
`payload`	`string` (optional)	Additional data in JSON string format.	No

Example Usage:

// Listening for the 'answer' event
RNNotificationCall.addEventListener('answer', (data) => {
  RNNotificationCall.backToApp();
});

End Call Event

The listener reacts to the "endCall" event, providing the call's UUID, reason for the call end (e.g., declined by the user or auto-hidden), and any additional data.

`addEventListener` for `endCall` Event

The addEventListener function allows listening for an "endCall" event, triggered when a call ends or is declined.

function addEventListener(eventName: 'endCall', handler: (payload: DeclinePayload) => void): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
`eventName`	`'endCall'`	The event name, which is set to `'endCall'`.	Yes
`handler`	`(payload: DeclinePayload) => void`	Function called when the event is triggered.	Yes

`DeclinePayload` Type

Property	Type	Description	Required
`callUUID`	`string`	Unique identifier for the call.	Yes
`payload`	`string` (optional)	Additional data in JSON string format.	No
`endAction`	`'ACTION_REJECTED_CALL' \| 'ACTION_HIDE_CALL'`	Indicates the reason for the call ending. Possible values are: - `ACTION_REJECTED_CALL`: When the call is declined by the user or through `declineCall` function. - `ACTION_HIDE_CALL`: When the notification hides automatically after a timeout.	Yes

Example Usage:

// Listening for the 'endCall' event
RNNotificationCall.addEventListener('endCall', (data) => {
  const { callUUID, endAction, payload } = data;
});

Remove Event

The removeEventListener function allows you to unlistener an event listener for specific call-related events, such as "answer" or "endCall." This is useful to prevent memory leaks and ensure that listeners are only active when needed.

function removeEventListener(eventName: 'answer' | 'endCall'): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
`eventName`	`'answer'` \| `'endCall'`	Specifies the event to remove: either "answer" or "endCall".	Yes

Example Usage:

// Example
RNNotificationCall.removeEventListener('answer');
RNNotificationCall.removeEventListener('endCall');

Back to App

The backToApp function brings the user back to the app from a call notification screen. This is useful for when the user answers or interacts with a call and needs to return to the app interface.

function backToApp(): void;

Example Usage:

// Example
RNNotificationCall.backToApp();

Decline Call

The declineCall function is used to decline an incoming call notification by its unique identifier. You can also provide an optional payload as a JSON string for additional context or data.

function declineCall(uuid: string, payload?: string): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
`uuid`	`string`	The unique identifier for the call to decline.	Yes
`payload`	`string`	An optional JSON string for additional data.	No

Example Usage:

// Example: Declining a call with a specific UUID and an optional payload
RNNotificationCall.declineCall(
  '22221a97-8eb4-4ac2-b2cf-0a3c0b9100ad', 
  JSON.stringify({ name: 'Test', Body: 'test' })
);

In this example:

The declineCall function is called with a specific UUID representing the call to be declined.
An optional payload is passed as a JSON string, which can be useful for providing additional context about the decline action. Here’s the updated documentation for the "Answer Call" section, formatted for clarity and detail:

Answer Call

The answerCall function is used to answer an incoming call notification by its unique identifier. An optional payload can also be provided as a JSON string for additional context or data.

Function Signature

function answerCall(uuid: string, payload?: string): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Required
`uuid`	`string`	The unique identifier for the call to answer.	Yes
`payload`	`string`	An optional JSON string for additional data.	No

Example Usage:

// Example: Answering a call with a specific UUID and an optional payload
RNNotificationCall.answerCall(
  '22221a97-8eb4-4ac2-b2cf-0a3c0b9100ad', 
  JSON.stringify({ name: 'Test', Body: 'test' })
);

In this example:

The answerCall function is invoked with a specific UUID representing the call to be answered.
An optional payload is passed as a JSON string, which can provide additional context regarding the action of answering the call.

Todos

[] Update the example to be simpler.
[] Customize incoming call notification UI for Android versions below 12.

Troubleshooting

Custom Android notification sound:
- Since Android Oreo / 8 the Notification sound is coming from the Channel and can only be set the first time you add the channel via your channel.setSound(). If you want to change it later on you need to delete the channel and then re-add it to the system.
