Android Support

[cmmouritsen]

I see that Android Support is on your to-do. I was just curious how soon that might be available.

Hopefully by the end of the year....been busy with a few other project. Feel free to submit a PR.

I might be able to devote some time to this. I've never done Android development, but I used to write Java and I have a potential need to use this in a React Native app for both iOS and Android.

Nice, thanks @athaeryn
Take a look at other RN components that have android support for examples.
I recently created a barebones android setup (ie. with no functionality) for another project which might help: rogchap/react-native-twilio@0e740e5

If anyone wants to take a stab at integrating it, the following Android version is functional

Thank @zfedoran Can you put together a PR for this?
We need to keep the RN API the same for both iOS and Android.

Hi,

Are you still working on Android support for this project? Do you have an idea when it could be finished?

Thanks.

Hey @Daniellt1,
We're working directly with the team at PayPal to have a fully cross platform solution. Don't have an exact date on this as the APIs between iOS and Android are quite different and we're still trying to find the best approach.

Any update?

Hey! As this module seems to be unmaintained I wrote a complete and cross-platform component for card.io. Feel free to contribute!

@Kerumen Appreciate you putting together a complete solution.
Would have been good (and better for the open source community) if you had submitted a PR to this repo, rather than creating your own.

@rogchap Honestly I started with a PR but then I also added the implementation of the PaymentViewController on iOS, wrote a complete README and updated some things around so I thought it would be too much for a PR.

And to have my repo is easier for me to add things, fix bugs.. than submitting PRs over PRs.
