how do I include native module (not installed from npm) in my react-native application

I am writing a native module (Android) for a react-native application I am working on. I am not publishing it to npm. This will be used locally in my application. I am trying to understand how I can include the native module, which won't be in node_modules directory, in the javascript code?

Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

If you are only going to use your module in that one app, you could simply put it in your projects android/app/ directory. Making your native module accessible to JavaScript works exactly the same: extend ReactContextBaseJavaModule and ReactPackage then create an instance of your package in your MainActivitys getPackages method.

If you want to re-use your module you could also make it a separate project and put a local path or private git repo in your package.json
