Package Exports
- react-native-device-rotation
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-native-device-rotation) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
react-native-device-rotation
Get updates about a phones attitude in three axis. Values are in degrees and are roll, pitch and azimuth. Works for android and iOS. From my testing the differences are: pitch degrees are flipped for android and iOS, north (azimuth = 0) is the top of the phone in android and the right og the phone in iOS.
TODOS:
- it's an early version of the package, so theres room for improvements
- make sure values are the same on ios and android
- method to check availability of the sensors
Getting started

to the imports at the top of the file - Add
new RNDeviceRotationPackage()
to the list returned by thegetPackages()
method
- Add
- Append the following lines to
android/settings.gradle
:include ':react-native-device-rotation' project(':react-native-device-rotation').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-device-rotation/android')
- Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in
android/app/build.gradle
:compile project(':react-native-device-rotation')
Usage
import RNDeviceRotation from 'react-native-device-rotation';
componentDidMount() {
// only does stuff in iOS currently
RNDeviceRotation.setUpdateInterval(0.2)
const orientationEvent = new NativeEventEmitter(RNDeviceRotation)
this.subscription = orientationEvent.addListener('DeviceRotation', event => {
log('DeviceRotation', event)
this.setState({
roll: event.roll,
pitch: event.pitch,
azimuth: event.azimuth,
})
})
RNDeviceRotation.start()
}
componentWillUnmount() {
if (this.subscription) {
this.subscription.remove()
}
RNDeviceRotation.stop()
}

- I found some older libraries for either android or iOS. I was greatly influenced by these solutions:
- react-native-sensor-manager
- RNDeviceAngles
