Notice & Help Request Regarding RN 0.29 Support

[avishayil]

In RN 0.29 fb changed the way RN libraries should be included in Android, and listen to application life cycle. I'm working right now on a solution for the migration, but I'd be happy to get some help from Android experts around here.

Version 1.1.9 would include all features and will support RN version < 0.29, while version 1.2.0 and up will support RN 0.29 and up. New features will be supported only on RN 0.29 and up once we'll figure a solution to migrate the library according to the new changes.

@avishayil Can you link their doc?

The OneSignal native code is designed to handle either an Activity or Application Context already.

@avishayil
You can use getApplicationContext() instead.

Yeah, I'm trying that but I have problem using the notificationOpenedHandler, can't get it to work using the new life cycle.

Couldn't seem to listen to Application lifecycle properly...

[avishayil]

Nailed it.

Note that listening to lifecycle events and getCurrentActivity has been supported in RN for quite a few versions. So it's not a breaking change for you.

Thanks @satya164 !, i'll definitely take a look on this.
