Setup

import React, {
  DeviceEventEmitter // will emit events that you can listen to
} from "react-native";

import { SensorManager } from "@cureapp/react-native-sensor-manager";

Accelerometer

SensorManager.startAccelerometer(100); // To start the accelerometer with a minimum delay of 100ms between events.
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Accelerometer", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.x
   * data.y
   * data.z
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopAccelerometer();

Gyroscope

DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Gyroscope", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.x
   * data.y
   * data.z
   **/
});
SensorManager.startGyroscope(100);
SensorManager.stopGyroscope();

Magnetometer

SensorManager.startMagnetometer(100);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Magnetometer", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.x
   * data.y
   * data.z
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopMagnetometer();

Orientation

SensorManager.startOrientation(100);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Orientation", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.azimuth
   * data.pitch
   * data.roll
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopOrientation();

Step Counter

SensorManager.startStepCounter(1000);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("StepCounter", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.steps
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopStepCounter();

Thermometer

SensorManager.startThermometer(1000);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Thermometer", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.temp
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopThermometer();

LightSensor

SensorManager.startLightSensor(100);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("LightSensor", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.light
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopLightSensor();

Proximity Sensor

SensorManager.startProximity(100);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener("Proximity", function(data) {
  /**
   * data.isNear: [Boolean] A flag representing whether something is near the screen.
   * data.value: [Number] The raw value returned by the sensor (usually distance in cm).
   * data.maxRange: [Number] The maximum range of the sensor.
   **/
});
SensorManager.stopProximity();
