AppRegistry is the JS entry point to running all React Native apps. App root components should register themselves with AppRegistry.registerComponent, then the native system can load the bundle for the app and then actually run the app when it’s ready by invoking AppRegistry.runApplication.

import {Text, AppRegistry} from 'react-native';

const App = () => (
  <View>
    <Text>App1</Text>
  </View>
);

AppRegistry.registerComponent('Appname', () => App);

To “stop” an application when a view should be destroyed, call AppRegistry.unmountApplicationComponentAtRootTag with the tag that was passed into runApplication. These should always be used as a pair. AppRegistry should be required early in the require sequence to make sure the JS execution environment is setup before other modules are required.

Methods

`getAppKeys()`


static getAppKeys(): string[];

Returns an array of strings.

`getRegistry()`


static getRegistry(): {sections: string[]; runnables: Runnable[]};

Returns a Registry object.

`getRunnable()`


static getRunnable(appKey: string): : Runnable | undefined;

Returns a Runnable object. Parameters:

Name	Type
appKey Required	string

`getSectionKeys()`


static getSectionKeys(): string[];

Returns an array of strings.

`getSections()`


static getSections(): Record<string, Runnable>;

Returns a Runnables object.

`registerCancellableHeadlessTask()`

static registerCancellableHeadlessTask(
  taskKey: string,
  taskProvider: TaskProvider,
  taskCancelProvider: TaskCancelProvider,
);

Register a headless task which can be cancelled. A headless task is a bit of code that runs without a UI. Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
taskKey Required	string	The native id for this task instance that was used when startHeadlessTask was called.
taskProvider Required	TaskProvider	A promise returning function that takes some data passed from the native side as the only argument. When the promise is resolved or rejected the native side is notified of this event and it may decide to destroy the JS context.
taskCancelProvider Required	TaskCancelProvider	a void returning function that takes no arguments; when a cancellation is requested, the function being executed by taskProvider should wrap up and return ASAP.

`registerComponent()`

static registerComponent(
  appKey: string,
  getComponentFunc: ComponentProvider,
  section?: boolean,
): string;

Parameters:

Name	Type
appKey Required	string
componentProvider Required	ComponentProvider
section	boolean

`registerConfig()`


static registerConfig(config: AppConfig[]);

Parameters:

Name	Type
config Required	AppConfig[]

`registerHeadlessTask()` Android

static registerHeadlessTask(
  taskKey: string,
  taskProvider: TaskProvider,
);

Register a headless task. A headless task is a bit of code that runs without a UI. This is a way to run tasks in JavaScript while your app is in the background. It can be used, for example, to sync fresh data, handle push notifications, or play music. Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
taskKey Required	string	The native id for this task instance that was used when startHeadlessTask was called.
taskProvider Required	TaskProvider	A promise returning function that takes some data passed from the native side as the only argument. When the promise is resolved or rejected the native side is notified of this event and it may decide to destroy the JS context.

`registerRunnable()`


static registerRunnable(appKey: string, func: Runnable): string;

Parameters:

Name	Type
appKey Required	string
run Required	function

`registerSection()`

static registerSection(
  appKey: string,
  component: ComponentProvider,
);

Parameters:

Name	Type
appKey Required	string
component Required	ComponentProvider

`runApplication()`


static runApplication(appKey: string, appParameters: any): void;

Loads the JavaScript bundle and runs the app. Parameters:

Name	Type
appKey Required	string
appParameters Required	any

`setComponentProviderInstrumentationHook()`

static setComponentProviderInstrumentationHook(
  hook: ComponentProviderInstrumentationHook,
);

Parameters:

Name	Type
hook Required	function

A valid hook function accepts the following as arguments:

Name	Type
component Required	ComponentProvider
scopedPerformanceLogger Required	IPerformanceLogger

The function must also return a React Component.

`setWrapperComponentProvider()`

static setWrapperComponentProvider(
  provider: WrapperComponentProvider,
);

Parameters:

Name	Type
provider Required	ComponentProvider

`startHeadlessTask()` Vega Not Available

static startHeadlessTask(
  taskId: number,
  taskKey: string,
  data: any,
);

Only called from native code. Starts a headless task. Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
taskId Required	number	The native id for this task instance to keep track of its execution.
taskKey Required	string	The key for the task to start.
data Required	any	The data to pass to the task.

`unmountApplicationComponentAtRootTag()`


static unmountApplicationComponentAtRootTag(rootTag: number);

Stops an application when a view should be destroyed. Parameters:

Name	Type
rootTag Required	number
