I'm trying to link a custom react native library which has a pod installed. When I install the pod in the custom library, xcworkspace is generated and I need to use the workspace there after, and I'm able to access the pods there. But, this custom library is linked as a xcodeproj to the ios project. So, it is unable to recognize the pod headers when it is linked.
Is there a way to link this custom library which has pods installed?
Goal: In a react-native project, I'm using react-native-firebase v5.6 and because im using Firebase's authentication, I need to include "Firebase/Auth" in the pod file so react-native-firebase's bindings can use it.
Problem: Once pod "Firebase/Auth" is added and saved to podfile, and pod install is successfully run, the project build fails when compiling RNFirebaseAuth.m. I haven't added any auth related code, just simply installed the pod and clean&ran build. Sidenote, other react-native-firebase setup/integration has been successful to this point.
Failing Error:
/path/to/project/node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios/RNFirebase/auth/RNFirebaseAuth.m:1184:36: error: no known class method for selector 'credentialWithProviderID:IDToken:rawNonce:'
credential = [FIROAuthProvider credentialWithProviderID:#"apple.com" IDToken:authToken rawNonce:authTokenSecret];
Have I just missed an installation step or what? How do I fix build?
According to mikehardy on GitHub, react-native-firebase v5.6 has a minor breaking change that enforces the use of firebase pods with at least version 6.13.
I ran pod update and that was all that was needed to fix the build
I have installed library using pod file.
used this library
https://github.com/ivpusic/react-native-image-crop-picker
image selection from gallery working fine when I run code from x-code , but got above error when I run 'react-native run-ios'.
Any solution will be helpful.
Reason for this error:
The xcode could find the library in pods you need to install pods in order to make it work on iOS.
try running
pod install
I've been developing an App using React Native and when I switched to a Mac environment to set up the configurations for ios, after all the setup has been done, the app opens very quickly and closes after the installation, showing that powered by react native screen. I noticed that in my packager screen, the line from the bundle which shows a progress of how much has been loaded does not appear, as if it has never been loaded. Same thing happens if I try to run the code from Xcode.
Here is the screen I'm talking about, for a test project I started for comparisson purposes:
And here is the same screen for my App, without the progress indicator being displayed:
I tried following some solutions provided by the comunity for similar issues but none of them worked. Note that no error message is displayed in my terminal window, as if the build and installation has been succesfull.
Can someone help me with this one? I've been strugling with this App for quite some time, as react native always seems to crash and display error messages for me. Any help would be much appreciated :)
Edit: forgot to mention that I'm trying to run the app on the simulator since I don't have an actual device.
Exactly this problem happened to me yesterday when I too installed react-native-firebase. I ran react-native run-ios and the app closed as soon as it opened without any specific errors.
I decided to run the app from Xcode, so I opened the Xcode project. To be more precise I opened the <Project>.xcworkspace because I installed CocoaPods. And there inside the logs I when trying to run the app I found the error. It said that the GoogleService-Info.plist was not found. And as I was looking through the Xcode workspace I did not see the file there, although it existed under /ios/<Project>/ in my IDE (VSCode). So maybe just a syncing problem.
So basically I added the file in Xcode as well, re-run and app was running fine.
Of course, I have no idea if I can find some sort of credible sources about this, but this exact issue happened to me under the exact same circumstances as yours.
Some solutions ...
If you are in latest react version then try to downgrade it.
Re-start your application and try to run again.
Delete node modules folder and run using npm install.
Try to open project using XCODE and build through it.
Most probably the problem is with your react version. Try to downgrade to stable react version and try
Check the log for errors, run react-native log-ios on the terminal and monitor it for errors.
or you can enable Debug JS Remotely option from the simulator by pressing command+D and check the console for errors.
Try to use adb logcat *:E, this will be helpful when you trying to find issues not related js.
I depends on the version of your react-native, if you are using its latest version , 0.56.0 (for now) it has a known issue, which you can see here, and it is suppose to be fixed in next version 0.57.0
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/19953
although the issue raised for android version, but it has similar issue in ios
(the latest comment, provides more info about the error)
for now the possible fix is to downgrade to 0.55.4 or 0.55.0
if this couldn't solve your issue, Please provide more information about your app with adding package.json and build.gradle info to the question
Add firebase crashlytics or open again and again that app, so it navigates to the log screen to find the issue. Mainly it caused by the misconfigured pod settings. So please check your Podfile. because all the other errors are comes in app's internal error console. I'm attaching the Non error formed Podfile for your reference. It's only the example
Podfile
require_relative '../node_modules/react-native/scripts/react_native_pods'
require_relative '../node_modules/#react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'
platform :ios, '12.0'
target 'iospodapp' do
config = use_native_modules!
use_react_native!(
:path => config[:reactNativePath],
# to enable hermes on iOS, change `false` to `true` and then install pods
:hermes_enabled => false
)
permissions_path = '../node_modules/react-native-permissions/ios'
pod 'Permission-LocationAlways', :path => "#{permissions_path}/LocationAlways.podspec"
pod 'Permission-LocationWhenInUse', :path => "#{permissions_path}/LocationWhenInUse.podspec"
pod 'Permission-MediaLibrary', :path => "#{permissions_path}/MediaLibrary.podspec"
pod 'Permission-Notifications', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Notifications.podspec"
pod 'Permission-PhotoLibrary', :path => "#{permissions_path}/PhotoLibrary.podspec"
pod 'YogaKit'
pod 'Firebase/Performance'
pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
pod 'RNVectorIcons', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-vector-icons'
pod 'react-native-orientation', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-orientation'
pod 'RNFS', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-fs'
target 'iospodappTests' do
inherit! :complete
# Pods for testing
end
# Enables Flipper.
#
# Note that if you have use_frameworks! enabled, Flipper will not work and
# you should disable the next line.
use_flipper!()
post_install do |installer|
flipper_post_install(installer)
installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
target.build_configurations.each do |config|
config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '12.0'
end
end
end
end
Note:
If you're using the firebase, don't forget to add the GoogleService-Info.plist into your ios directory through xcode.
If you're using firebase analytics that also makes the crash. because it needs too more configurations to avoid the crash. so check your build without firebase analytics first. If everything is fine, you can add the analytics later
If it occurs without any major changes
close Terminal, Emulator and any other application related.
clean the project
clean cache
npm start -- --reset-cache
clean and Install pod file
Cd IOS && podinstall
Rebuild the project.
I'm experiencing the same issue since yesterday, the app Im working on is old we are using "react": "16.8.3", "react-native": "^0.59.10", although the app used to work for me properly before, I cloned a fresh copy of the app from the github repo and it worked for the first time, then I again issued the same command npx react-native run-android and after installing the app should open while opening it starts to crash with no error, I see similar metro bundler screen as has been shared in the question. I tried to run the android folder via android studio I could see one issue which Im not able to resolve since yesterday
/node_modules/#react-native-community/netinfo/android/gradle.properties
(Operation not permitted)
which Im not able to figure out how to solve.
In the installation instructions for iOS, it says to run
react-native link
After completion I see:
However, compiling immediately fails with the error React/RCTViewManager.h not found:
When looking at the integration instructions on Facebook's website, it has us using a Podfile. When you use a Podfile, your project looks like this:
Comparing this to the react native sample project, I can see that in fact, it does not appear to use a Podfile to integrate react native at all; instead all React components are included as libraries:
Thus, I suspect that the integration instructions for react-native-video are not compatible with the integration instructions found here.
Can anyone suggest how to integrate react-native-video when using Podfiles to integrate react-native?
What version of react native are you using? This looks like it's due to the breaking change for RN version >0.40.
The short fix for this issue is if you see #import React/$(filename) in the native code, replace it with #import "$(filename)", but if you can update to RN >0.40 that would be preferable.
To answer your question about pods, you should be able to add something like pod 'react-native-video', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-video' to your podfile and run pod install (if the relative path from your Podfile to the library root is incorrect replace it with the correct one). Looking at the github page for react-native-video, it does have a podspec so it probably supports cocoapods installation
