# tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer

HOLA SOY PIPECHELA...

React-Native plugin for the bluetooth ESC/POS & TSC printers.

This plugin is a fork of react-native-bluetooth-escpos-printer. Because we made changes print picture and print qr code methods.

Any questions or bug please raise a issue.

##Still under developement

#May support Android / IOS

## Installation

### Step 1

Install via NPM [Check In NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer)

```bash
npm i @pipechela/tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer --save
```

Or install via github

```bash
npm install https://github.com/lufke/tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer.git --save
```

### Step2

Link the plugin to your RN project

```bash
react-native link tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer
```

Or you may need to link manually.
//TODO: manually link guilds.

### Step3

Refers to your JS files

```javascript
import {
  BluetoothManager,
  BluetoothEscposPrinter,
  BluetoothTscPrinter,
} from "tp-react-native-bluetooth-printer";
```

## Usage and APIs

### BluetoothManager

BluetoothManager is the module that for Bluetooth service management, supports Bluetooth status check, enable/disable Bluetooth service,scan devices,connect/unpaire devices.

- isBluetoothEnabled ==>
  async function, check whether Bluetooth service is enabled.
  //TODO: consider to return the the devices information already bound and paired here..

```javascript
BluetoothManager.isBluetoothEnabled().then(
  (enabled) => {
    alert(enabled); // enabled ==> true /false
  },
  (err) => {
    alert(err);
  }
);
```

- enableBluetooth ==> `diff + ANDROID ONLY`
  async function, enable the bluetooth service, returns the devices information already bound and paired. `diff - IOS would just resovle with nil`

```javascript
BluetoothManager.enableBluetooth().then(
  (r) => {
    var paired = [];
    if (r && r.length > 0) {
      for (var i = 0; i < r.length; i++) {
        try {
          paired.push(JSON.parse(r[i])); // NEED TO PARSE THE DEVICE INFORMATION
        } catch (e) {
          //ignore
        }
      }
    }
    console.log(JSON.stringify(paired));
  },
  (err) => {
    alert(err);
  }
);
```

- disableBluetooth ==> `diff + ANDROID ONLY`
  async function ,disable the bluetooth service. `diff - IOS would just resovle with nil`

```javascript
BluetoothManager.disableBluetooth().then(
  () => {
    // do something.
  },
  (err) => {
    alert(err);
  }
);
```

- scanDevices ==>
  async function , scans the bluetooth devices, returns devices found and pared after scan finish. Event [BluetoothManager.EVENT_DEVICE_ALREADY_PAIRED] would be emitted with devices bound; event [BluetoothManager.EVENT_DEVICE_FOUND] would be emitted (many time) as long as new devices found.

samples with events:

```javascript
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener(
  BluetoothManager.EVENT_DEVICE_ALREADY_PAIRED,
  (rsp) => {
    this._deviceAlreadPaired(rsp); // rsp.devices would returns the paired devices array in JSON string.
  }
);
DeviceEventEmitter.addListener(BluetoothManager.EVENT_DEVICE_FOUND, (rsp) => {
  this._deviceFoundEvent(rsp); // rsp.devices would returns the found device object in JSON string
});
```

samples with scanDevices function

```javascript
BluetoothManager.scanDevices().then(
  (scannedDevices) => {
    const parsedObj = JSON.parse(scannedDevices);
    this.setState(
      {
        pairedDs: this.state.pairedDs.cloneWithRows(parsedObj.paired || []),
        foundDs: this.state.foundDs.cloneWithRows(parsedObj.found || []),
        loading: false,
      },
      () => {
        this.paired = parsedObj.paired || [];
        this.found = parsedObj.found || [];
      }
    );
  },
  (er) => {
    this.setState({
      loading: false,
    });
    alert("error" + JSON.stringify(er));
  }
);
```

- connect ==>
  async function, connect the specified devices, if not bound, bound dailog promps.

```javascript
BluetoothManager.connect(rowData.address) // the device address scanned.
  .then(
    (s) => {
      this.setState({
        loading: false,
        boundAddress: rowData.address,
      });
    },
    (e) => {
      this.setState({
        loading: false,
      });
      alert(e);
    }
  );
```
