Nothing happened when job is finished

[rafalkowalewski]

When I run my taskts and look for any console response, I see only this:

06-09 23:27:06.986 25351 25351 D BackgroundTask: Committing job schedule
06-09 23:34:37.407 25351 26893 D BackgroundTask: Job is running

and nothing happened.
AsyncStorage is empty, console log were not triggered...

Any idea?

Android 9,

the same

I added this permission and it started working :)
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />

didnt work for me even after adding the permission, so the thing is that the define() method is never triggered.

For those facing this issue, there is a PR that fixed this for Android 8.0+
#64

The fix in #64 did not solve the issue for me. I am still seeing this behavior.

I call BackgroundTask.define directly in index.js on root level and BackgroundTask.schedule from inside a Compontent. The job should save a dummy value in AsyncStorage. Which it doesn't. Any ideas or any progress on that?
