headless-demo

Experimental feature!

Flipper can run plugins in a headless mode - expose their API over the wire. This is a simple example of how it might look like.

Quick start

  1. Run yarn from this repo to install dependencies
  2. Start Flipper Server: from desktop folder run yarn flipper-server
  3. Start an Android device
  4. Run yarn start from this repo

What happens under the hood

  1. This script connects to Flipper via WebSockets
  2. It fetches a list of devices
  3. It fetches a list of available headless plugins for the Android device
  4. It activates headless-demo plugin
  5. It sends increment command to the plugin
