Expo

Healkite works with Expo SDK 50 and newer through a config plugin. You don't edit native code.

Install

sh
npx expo install @healkite/react-native

Add the plugin

json
{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      ["@healkite/react-native", {
        "cdnUrl": "https://cdn.healkite.com",
        "channel": "production-…",
        "manifestKey": "MFkw…",
        "publicKey": "MFkw…"
      }]
    ]
  }
}
Option
cdnUrlCDN base URL (required)
channelChannel key (required)
runtimeVersionDefaults to the app version
publicKeyYour bundle-signing public key
manifestKeyServer manifest key (dashboard → Settings)
cdnFallbackUrlBackup CDN, used when the primary is unreachable

Then rebuild: npx expo prebuild or an EAS Build. The plugin writes the values and makes release builds load the OTA bundle (ExpoReactHostFactory on SDK 55+, MainApplication on older SDKs, AppDelegate on iOS).

Sync

Same as bare React Native: call Healkite.sync() after your first screen. See React Native SDK.

Releasing

healkite release detects Expo projects and bundles with npx expo export:embed, so the same commands work:

sh
npx healkite release -p ios -c <channel-key> -r 1.0.0 --sign healkite-signing.pem --guarded

expo-updates

Use one OTA system per app. The plugin warns when expo-updates is also installed. To switch, see Migrate from expo-updates.
