Android Installation

Please follow this guide to integrate the Android SDK in your React Native Application.

Android SDK Setup​

In order to use LuraPlayer with android, it is necessary to copy the provided android release builds in the MCP > Play Services > Player SDK's into the <project_root>/android/app/libs/ folder. Besides our android sdk, you need to put the third party sdks you want to use to the libs folder.

Here are some example libraries

  • AnvatoAndroidSDK.aar
  • adobeMobileLibrary.jar
  • android_accessenabler.jar
  • libAndroidMediaAnalytics.jar
  • NBZ-moat-mobile-app-kit.aar
  • play-services-pal.aar
  • VideoHeartbeat.jar
