What is react-native-keychain?

The react-native-keychain package provides a secure way to store and retrieve sensitive information such as passwords, tokens, and other credentials in a React Native application. It leverages the native keychain services on iOS and the Keystore system on Android to ensure data is stored securely.

What are react-native-keychain's main functionalities?

Storing Credentials

This feature allows you to securely store a username and password in the device's keychain or keystore.

import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';

async function saveCredentials(username, password) {
  await Keychain.setGenericPassword(username, password);
}

Retrieving Credentials

This feature allows you to retrieve stored credentials from the device's keychain or keystore.

import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';

async function getCredentials() {
  const credentials = await Keychain.getGenericPassword();
  if (credentials) {
    console.log('Credentials successfully loaded for user ' + credentials.username);
  } else {
    console.log('No credentials stored');
  }
}

Resetting Credentials

This feature allows you to reset or delete the stored credentials from the device's keychain or keystore.

import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';

async function resetCredentials() {
  await Keychain.resetGenericPassword();
}

Storing Internet Credentials

This feature allows you to securely store internet credentials (e.g., server, username, password) in the device's keychain or keystore.

import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';

async function saveInternetCredentials(server, username, password) {
  await Keychain.setInternetCredentials(server, username, password);
}

Retrieving Internet Credentials

This feature allows you to retrieve stored internet credentials from the device's keychain or keystore.

import * as Keychain from 'react-native-keychain';

async function getInternetCredentials(server) {
  const credentials = await Keychain.getInternetCredentials(server);
  if (credentials) {
    console.log('Internet credentials successfully loaded for server ' + server);
  } else {
    console.log('No internet credentials stored for server ' + server);
  }
}
