`getAll` is a database intensive process, and can take a long time to complete depending on the size of the contacts list. Because of this, it is recommended you access the `getAll` method before it is needed, and cache the results for future use.

See the full [API](#api) for more methods.
`getContactMatchingString` is meant to alleviate the amount of time it takes to get all contacts, by filtering on the native side based on a string.
### Android permissions
On android you must request permissions beforehand
```es
import { PermissionsAndroid } from 'react-native';
import Contacts from 'react-native-contacts';
Contacts.getContactsMatchingString("filter", (err, contacts) => {
if (err) throw err;
// contacts matching "filter"
console.log(contacts)

PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_CONTACTS,
{
'title': 'Contacts',
'message': 'This app would like to view your contacts.'
}

Contacts.getAll((err, contacts) => {
if (err === 'denied'){
// error
} else {
// contacts returned in Array
}

Update and delete reference contacts by their recordID (as returned by the OS in getContacts). Apple does not guarantee the recordID will not change, e.g. it may be reassigned during a phone migration. Consequently you should always grab a fresh contact list with `getContacts` before performing update and delete operations.

Consequently you should always grab a fresh contact list with `getContacts` before performing update operations.
You can also delete a record using only it's recordID
### Bugs
There are issues with updating contacts on Android:
1. custom labels get overwritten to "Other",
1. postal address update code doesn't exist. (it exists for addContact)
See https://github.com/rt2zz/react-native-contacts/issues/332#issuecomment-455675041 for current discussions.
## Delete Contacts
You can delete a record using only it's recordID
```es
Contacts.deleteContact({recordID: 1}, (err, recordId) => {
if (err) throw err;
if (err) {
throw err;
}
// contact deleted
})
```
Or by passing the full contact object with a `recordID` field.
```es
Contacts.deleteContact(contact, (err, recordId) => {
if (err) {
throw err;
}
// contact deleted
})
```
