Can this be used with Expo?

[deep0410]

I currently have an application build with Expo.
I wanted to look into integrating MDM.

It seems like to install and set up the package, I need to make a change to AndroidManifest.xml. Which I don't have access to since I am using Expo.

Is ejecting from Expo the only way to installing this package?

Hey @deep0410 I faced the same situation and opened this feature request: https://expo.canny.io/feature-requests/p/appconfig-functionality-included-in-expo

So far, the only way is to eject Expo since you have a dependency on the Native Code

@deep0410 @antoniogoulao expo now supports using native modules, as long as they provide some expo specific configuration.

I found this PR on StackOverflow which makes it seem pretty simple.

Hello! I just made a PR to expo/config-plugins with a config plugin that should allow you to use this library in Expo!

expo/config-plugins#228

I made the PR there since there are other libraries that utilize MDM features (namely react-native-emm, and developers may want to implement there own custom solution.

Hopefully this can get merged and allow y'all to use this config plugin!
