does not work with CRNA / Expo

[Morriz]

Hi, any idea why I can't seem to import your module with a fresh CRNA install?

import SInfo from 'react-native-sensitive-info'

console.log('SInfo: ', SInfo)

console output:
SInfo: undefined

I use:

"dependencies": {
    "expo": "^21.0.0",
    "react": "16.0.0-alpha.12",
    "react-native": "^0.48.4",
    "react-native-sensitive-info": "^5.1.0"
  }

Hi @Morriz! Did you get this behavior on Android or iOS? Usually when a module with native code returns undefined it's because it was not linked properly with the native projects, you can try running react-native link react-native-sensitive-info again or linking it manually. I'm not very familiar with expo though, not sure how it handles external native dependencies.

I did that already, but to no avail. It would be awesome if your module would work with CRNA out of the box, but you probably have to do some tweaking. I would reach out to the CRNA ppl if I were you.

I always test on physical device btw

Yes, that would be nice given the popularity of CRNA. I will look into it this weekend, maybe @mCodex can give it a try too

@Morriz thank you for letting us know about this problem. I'll take a look :)

You cannot use any modules that require linking (i.e. native modules) with expo. This is not an issue with react-native-sensitive-info. You must either detach to ExpoKit or eject completely. See this.

Please note that Expo SDK 21 already has a SecureStore.

Thanks for clarifying @Palisand!

[Morriz]

Yes, tnx! That new SecureStore is exactly what I need :)

[mCodex]

Thanks @Palisand 👍 I'll close this issue for now since @Morriz found the solution 👍

I encountered the same issue with react-native init project on ios. The auto linking did not work. I had to manually link to get this working. My project is not using 'pods'

@marudhupandiyang could you please open a new issue for that and provide more detail (RN version, iOS version etc.)?
