Duplicate module name: react-native-vector-icons about nachos-ui

[batjko]

Same with RN 0.50 (via the create-react-native-app cli, which uses Expo).

No work on this for half a year and there are also two other issues open for what seems to be the same issue. Given the CRNA popularity, is it fair to say this issue won't be fixed, or the project is no longer being maintained?

I tried it with react-native v0.39, v0.40 and v0.41. It is working only with version 0.40. The latest stable version is 0.41, so I had to install rninit package to set up a project with a correct version of react-native.
Can you please make it compatible with newer versions? Thank you.

I've just tried to update the React Native to v0.41, downgrade to v0.39, and both versions work. It looks like a different issue from what I see on StackOverflow and Github - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38885760/react-native-packager-failure-duplicate-module-name

@casperle I changed the package.json to accept newer versions of React Native (https://github.com/avocode/nachos-ui/blob/master/package.json#L41). Can you try it out, please?

[casperle]

@petrbrzek did you published the changes into npm? Because it is installing the version before your changes.

[casperle]

@renekopcem I tried all the variants and I get the same error all the time. There is a collision between versions of react-native in the dependency of nachos-ui and what I am using in my project.

[petrbrzek]

@casperle I didn't, thanks. Published now as 0.1.1.

RN 0.38, Nachos 0.1.1 same problem

So here is the answer. If you have installed the same version of RN as the dependency in nachos-ui (>=0.40.0), everything works fine. I tried every scenario with a new project, not downgrade or upgrade.
@petrbrzek Now it is working fine, because npm is not installing the other version of RN as a dependency in nachos-ui, but it is using the installed one.

For me it is not working with lower version of RN as 0.40.0. In that scenario there is always an error with version mismatch or naming collision. It is not only in react-native-vector-icons, but also in other packages where is not the same version.

@petrbrzek I think there is two ways to fix it. First, you can delete the dependency of RN from package.json and warn people that they have to install RN as a dependency of their project - I don't exactly know how it will work when they want to use it on web of with lower version of RN. The second opinion is that you can make a notice somewhere that people can use nachos-ui only with newer versions of RN as v0.40.0 included.

[petrbrzek]

@casperle Thanks for your message. As there is a breaking change in RN 0.40.0, I'll probably choose the second option and add a notice that this kit requires RN >=0.40.0.
