NativePHP Livewire Integration

This skill provides guidance for integrating NativePHP native functionality into Livewire components, including event handling, API usage, and best practices.

Overview

Livewire components are the primary way to build interactive NativePHP Mobile apps. Native events are dispatched via JavaScript injection and can be listened to using Livewire attributes.

Event Listening Pattern

Using #[OnNative] Attribute (REQUIRED)

NativePHP provides a custom #[OnNative] attribute that MUST be used for listening to native events. This is cleaner and more reliable than the raw Livewire #[On] attribute.

use Livewire\Component;
use Native\Mobile\Attributes\OnNative;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Camera\PhotoTaken;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Camera\PhotoCancelled;

class PhotoUploader extends Component
{
    public ?string $photoPath = null;

    #[OnNative(PhotoTaken::class)]
    public function handlePhotoTaken(string $path, string $mimeType = 'image/jpeg', ?string $id = null)
    {
        $this->photoPath = $path;
        // Process the photo
    }

    #[OnNative(PhotoCancelled::class)]
    public function handlePhotoCancelled(bool $cancelled = true, ?string $id = null)
    {
        session()->flash('info', 'Photo capture was cancelled');
    }
}

IMPORTANT: Always use #[OnNative(EventClass::class)] - NEVER use the raw #[On('native:...')] syntax. The OnNative attribute automatically handles the native: prefix and event class resolution.

Complete Camera Example

namespace App\Livewire;

use Livewire\Component;
use Native\Mobile\Attributes\OnNative;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Camera\PhotoTaken;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Camera\PhotoCancelled;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Gallery\MediaSelected;
use Native\Mobile\Facades\Camera;

class AvatarUploader extends Component
{
    public ?string $avatarPath = null;
    public ?string $avatarUrl = null;

    public function takePhoto()
    {
        Camera::getPhoto()
            ->id('avatar-' . auth()->id())
            ->remember()
            ->start();
    }

    public function pickFromGallery()
    {
        Camera::pickImages()
            ->images()
            ->single()
            ->id('avatar-gallery')
            ->remember()
            ->start();
    }

    #[OnNative(PhotoTaken::class)]
    public function handlePhotoTaken(string $path, string $mimeType, ?string $id)
    {
        if (str_starts_with($id, 'avatar-')) {
            $this->processAvatar($path);
        }
    }

    #[OnNative(MediaSelected::class)]
    public function handleMediaSelected(bool $success, array $files, int $count, ?string $error, bool $cancelled, ?string $id)
    {
        if ($success && $count > 0) {
            $this->processAvatar($files[0]['path']);
        }
    }

    #[OnNative(PhotoCancelled::class)]
    public function handlePhotoCancelled()
    {
        // User cancelled - no action needed
    }

    private function processAvatar(string $path)
    {
        // Move to permanent storage
        $filename = 'avatars/' . auth()->id() . '_' . time() . '.jpg';
        Storage::disk('public')->put($filename, file_get_contents($path));

        $this->avatarPath = $filename;
        $this->avatarUrl = Storage::disk('public')->url($filename);

        // Update user record
        auth()->user()->update(['avatar' => $filename]);
    }

    public function render()
    {
        return view('livewire.avatar-uploader');
    }
}

Blade template:

<div>
    <div class="avatar-container">
        @if($avatarUrl)
            <img src="{{ $avatarUrl }}" alt="Avatar" class="avatar">
        @else
            <div class="avatar-placeholder">No Photo</div>
        @endif
    </div>

    <div class="button-group">
        <button wire:click="takePhoto" type="button">
            Take Photo
        </button>
        <button wire:click="pickFromGallery" type="button">
            Choose from Gallery

        }

        $this->pendingAction = '';
    }

    // ... action methods

Geolocation Example

namespace App\Livewire;

use Livewire\Component;
use Native\Mobile\Attributes\OnNative;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Geolocation\LocationReceived;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Geolocation\PermissionStatusReceived;
use Native\Mobile\Facades\Geolocation;

            Item::find($itemId)?->delete();
            session()->flash('success', 'Item deleted');

use Livewire\Component;
use Native\Mobile\Attributes\OnNative;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Microphone\MicrophoneRecorded;
use Native\Mobile\Events\Microphone\MicrophoneCancelled;
use Native\Mobile\Facades\Microphone;

class VoiceNote extends Component

            ->remember()
            ->start();

        $this->isRecording = true;
    }

    public function stopRecording()
    {
        Microphone::stop();
        $this->isRecording = false;
    }

    #[OnNative(MicrophoneRecorded::class)]
    public function handleRecordingComplete(string $path, string $mimeType, ?string $id)
    {
        $this->recordingPath = $path;
        $this->isRecording = false;

        // Save to storage
        $filename = 'recordings/' . auth()->id() . '_' . time() . '.m4a';
        Storage::put($filename, file_get_contents($path));
    }

    #[OnNative(MicrophoneCancelled::class)]

    }
}

Push Notification Enrollment

use Native\Mobile\Facades\PushNotifications;

class NotificationSettings extends Component
{
    public bool $enrolled = false;

    public function enrollForNotifications()
    {
        PushNotifications::enroll()
            ->id('main')
            ->enroll();
    }

    #[OnNative(TokenGenerated::class)]
    public function handleTokenGenerated(string $token, ?string $id)
    {
        // Store token on your server
        auth()->user()->update(['push_token' => $token]);

        $this->enrolled = true;
        session()->flash('success', 'Push notifications enabled');
    }
}

Safe Area in Livewire Layouts

Apply safe area handling in your Livewire layout:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover">
    @livewireStyles
</head>
<body class="nativephp-safe-area">
    {{ $slot }}

    @livewireScripts
</body>
</html>

Best Practices

1. ALWAYS use #[OnNative(EventClass::class)] - This is the required pattern, not #[On('native:...')]. The OnNative attribute from Native\Mobile\Attributes\OnNative automatically handles the native: prefix.

2. Track requests with IDs - Correlate async requests with responses:

   Camera::getPhoto()->id('unique-id')->remember()->start();
   

3. Handle cancellations - Always handle cancelled events gracefully

4. Check permissions first - For location, camera, etc., check/request permissions before use

5. Use session flashing - For user feedback on native operations

6. Clean up temporary files - Move captured media to permanent storage
