React Native : Facebook SDK Login Button
<FBLogin />
provides a React Native component wrapping the native Facebook SDK login button and manager.
Note: Demo above includes debug text to confirm login (i.e. user name, email and access token). <FBLogin />
, by default, will only display the native blue 'Log in with Facebook' button.

Usage
FBLogin
Provides a React Native component which wraps the Facebook SDK FBSDKLoginButton
.
Defaults
var FBLogin = require('react-native-facebook-login');
var Login = React.createClass({
render: function() {
return (
<FBLogin />
);
}
});
Exhaustive
var FBLogin = require('react-native-facebook-login');
var FBLoginManager = require('NativeModules').FBLoginManager;
var Login = React.createClass({
render: function() {
var _this = this;
return (
<FBLogin style={{ marginBottom: 10, }}
permissions={["email","user_friends"]}
loginBehavior={FBLoginManager.LoginBehaviors.Native}
onLogin={function(data){
console.log("Logged in!");
console.log(data);
_this.setState({ user : data.credentials });
}}
onLogout={function(){
console.log("Logged out.");
_this.setState({ user : null });
}}
onLoginFound={function(data){
console.log("Existing login found.");
console.log(data);
_this.setState({ user : data.credentials });
}}
onLoginNotFound={function(){
console.log("No user logged in.");
_this.setState({ user : null });
}}
onError={function(data){
console.log("ERROR");
console.log(data);
}}
onCancel={function(){
console.log("User cancelled.");
}}
onPermissionsMissing={function(data){
console.log("Check permissions!");
console.log(data);
}}
/>
);
}
});
Login Behavior
You can change the FBSDK login behavior of the button by including the loginBehavior
prop on the FBLogin
component.
FBLoginManager.LoginBehaviors.Native
: This is the default behavior, and indicates logging in through the native Facebook app may be used. The SDK may still use Safari instead.FBLoginManager.LoginBehaviors.Browser
: Attempts log in through the Safari or SFSafariViewController, if available.FBLoginManager.LoginBehaviors.SystemAccount
: Attempts log in through the Facebook account currently signed in through the device Settings.FBLoginManager.LoginBehaviors.Web
: Attempts log in through a modal UIWebView pop up.
FBLoginManager
Wraps features of the native iOS Facebook SDK FBSDKLoginManager
interface.
See example/components/facebook/FBLoginMock.js for an example using only the exposed native methods of the FBLoginManager to recreate the native FBSDKLoginButton
.
Usage
var FBLoginManager = require('NativeModules').FBLoginManager;
FBLoginManager.loginWithPermissions(["email","user_friends"], function(error, data){
if (!error) {
console.log("Login data: ", data);
} else {
console.log("Error: ", data);
}
})
FBLoginManager.Events
A variety of events are emitted across the React Native bridge back to your javascript components. This means you can take advantage of the RCTDeviceEventEmitter.addListener
method to listen, and create subscribers that will execute, for each action. In fact, this is how the onEvent handlers are implemented for the FBLogin component (see FBLogin.ios.js).
Usage
var RCTDeviceEventEmitter = require('RCTDeviceEventEmitter');
var FBLoginManager = require('NativeModules').FBLoginManager;
...
var subscriber = RCTDeviceEventEmitter.addListener(
FBLoginManager.Events["Login"],
(eventData) => {
console.log("[Login] ", eventData);
}
);
...
// Be sure to remove subscribers when they are no longer needed
// e.g. componentWillUnmount
subscriber.remove();
Setup
npm install --save react-native-facebook-login
- Run
open node_modules/react-native-facebook-login
- Drag
RCTFBLogin.xcodeproj
into yourLibraries
group - Select your main project in the navigator to bring up settings
- Under

Note: If your build fails, you most likely forgot to setup the Facebook SDK
Facebook SDK
Facebook : Quick Start for iOS
Adding the Facebook SDK
- Run
open node_modules/react-native-facebook-login/FacebookSDK
- Select all the
.framework
files and click drag them into your project - Be sure to configure your .plist file
- Import statements for FBSDK kits
#import <FBSDKCoreKit/FBSDKCoreKit.h>
#import <FBSDKLoginKit/FBSDKLoginKit.h>
- Modify the application methods to return FBSDKApplicationDelegate before the
@end
.
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
// ...
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds];
UIViewController *rootViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
rootViewController.view = rootView;
self.window.rootViewController = rootViewController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
// return YES;
return [[FBSDKApplicationDelegate sharedInstance] application:application
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
}
- Add the following new methods after the application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method above, before the
@end
.
// Facebook SDK
- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application {
[FBSDKAppEvents activateApp];
}
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)url sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication annotation:(id)annotation {
return [[FBSDKApplicationDelegate sharedInstance] application:application
openURL:url
sourceApplication:sourceApplication
annotation:annotation];
}
