const filePath = RNFS.DocumentDirectoryPath + '/com.domain.example.apk';
const download = RNFS.downloadFile({
    fromUrl: 'apk file download url',
    toFile: filePath,
    progress: res => {
        console.log((res.bytesWritten / res.contentLength).toFixed(2));
    },
    progressDivider: 1
});

download.promise.then(result => {
    if(result.statusCode == 200){
        AndroidApkInstaller.install(filePath).then(data => {
            console.log("Installation success")
        })
        .catch(error => {
            console.log("Fail to install")
        })
    }
});
