onBackgroundEvent in react-native v0.76.3 !!

[wael-fadlallah]

Hello,

Is notifee.onBackgroundEvent supported in React Native v0.76 with the bridgeless architecture?

I’m new to background tasks, so I’m unsure if the issue is that it’s not working at all or if I’m not verifying it correctly. For example, console.log doesn’t seem to work in the headless JS context.

Could someone clarify this for me?

I've been doing almost nothing but looking into headlessJS in background events with react-native 0.76 in bridgeless and old architecture modes. It is all supposed to work. You may not be verifying it correctly.

here's my reproducer on the newArch branch --> https://github.com/mikehardy/old-arch-android-receiver-boot-crash/tree/notifee-integration-issue47570-repro/ReproducerApp

newArchEnabled on android:

background handler for notifee set, you should see it's output:

follow the instructions in the readme to see it work

You'll want notifee v9.1.4+ though, took a while to get everything fixed
