Setup mobile client SDK

First, you need to decide what client SDK to use. We support two options:

  • If you use React Native <0.76 and old architecture, you should stay on a Microsoft CodePush client SDK. Read here how to configure Microsoft CodePush SDK.

  • If you need React Native >=0.76, or you need support for New Architecture, you need to use Revopush client SDK. Read here how to configure Revopush SDK.

React Native version(s)Supporting CodePush version(s)
<v0.76Use old Microsoft CodePush client
v0.76, v0.77, 0.78Use Revopush SDK (Support both New and Old Architectures)

After you configure your React Native application go to app settings to get Deployment keys:

Application deployments

Setup deployment key for iOS

Add the CodePushServerURL and CodePushDeploymentKey to the file ios/[ProjectName]/Info.plist

xml
<key>CodePushServerURL</key>
<string>https://api.revopush.org</string>
<key>CodePushDeploymentKey</key>
<string>YOUR_DEPLOYMENT_KEY</string>

Setup deployment key for Android

Add the CodePushServerUrl and CodePushDeploymentKey to the file android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

xml

Configure CLI

After registration, install the Revopush CLI.

shell
npm install -g @revopush/code-push-cli

Login to Revopush CLI using the following command:

shell
revopush login

This will launch a browser, asking you to authenticate with either your GitHub or Google account. This will generate an access key that you need to copy/paste into the CLI (it will prompt you for it). You are now successfully authenticated and can safely close your browser window.

shell
Opening your browser...
Visit https://app.revopush.org/cli-login?hostname=<YOUR_HOST_NAME> and enter the code

Enter your access key:
