Support put device token to life cycle events

Hi guys, My react native app need to implement push notifications that required put device token to segment life cycle events. Does segment react-native lib support to add device token to life cycle events?

Something like this: https://segment.com/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/mobile/ios/#how-do-i-use-push-notifications
https://segment.com/docs/connections/destinations/catalog/customer-io/#device-token-set-up

@quyentran-agilityio I have the same issue.

The iOS native library auto-adds it, we use this middleware for android

import {
  Notification,
  Notifications,
  Registered,
} from 'react-native-notifications';

// global to store token
let deviceToken: string | null = null;

// called at startup
export const registerforPN = () => {

  if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
    Notifications.registerRemoteNotifications();
    Notifications.events().registerRemoteNotificationsRegistered(
      (event: Registered) => {
        deviceToken = event.deviceToken;
      },
    );
  }
};

// middleware for this library
export const pnMiddleware: Middleware = payload => {
  const {next, context} = payload;
  if (Platform.OS === 'android' && deviceToken !== null) {
    if (!context.device) {
      context.device = {token: deviceToken};
    }
  }
  next(context);
};

@adamjuhasz that is a VERY clever work around, I dig it. We're gonna make this easier though.

    }
  }
  next(context);
};

This is only working for custom events. Is there any wayout to set data in context for default lifecycle events?

I'm having a same issue. In our set up we have trackAppLifecycleEvents: true set up when creating the client. I'm not sure how I could add the middleware on the default lifecycles events.

Any idea?
