The dApp Store provides a deep-linking scheme that you can use to directly link users to your app’s listing page, where users can see the description, preview media, and more, and then install the app.
Deep-link scheme
To create the link, you need to know the app’s fully qualified package name, which is declared in the app’s manifest file (e.g com.solanamobile.mintyfresh). For Expo apps, it can be found in the android field of your app.json.
solanadappstore://details?id=<package_name>
solanadappstore://details?id=com.solanamobile.mintyfresh
Linking from an Android app
You can also link to your dApp Store listing page from an Android app.
This can be useful, for example, when your user’s app is out-of-date and you want to link them to the listing page to update the app.
import { Linking } from "react-native";
// Use the React Native `Linking` library to open the URL
const linkToListing = () => {
const url = "solanadappstore://details?id=com.solanamobile.mintyfresh";
Linking.canOpenURL(url)
.then((supported) => {
if (supported) {
Linking.openURL(url);
} else {
console.error("Unable to link to dApp Store");
}
})
.catch((err) => console.error("An error occurred", err));
};
Update the AndroidManifest.xml to include queries.<manifest
<queries>
<intent>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:host="details"
android:scheme="solanadappstore" />
</intent>
</queries>
...
</manifest>
// Create an Android intent to navigate to the listing page
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = Uri.parse("solanadappstore://details?id=com.solanamobile.mintyfresh")
// Make sure there's an activity that can handle this intent
resolveActivity(packageManager)?.let {
startActivity(this)
}
}
