RN 0.59.5 with RN-vector-icons 6.4.2 throwing BackAndroid is deprecated and has been removed from this package. Use BackHandler instead

问题

I just installing newer react native with RNVI and i get this error when using RNVI,

BackAndroid is deprecated and has been removed from this package. Use BackHandler instead

but everything is fine when i remove import FontAwesome from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome'; and <FontAwesome name="icon_name"/>

I've tried to search BackAndroid using vscode and even on RNVI github repo, but I can't find any BackAndroid

How can i fix this issue?

回答1:

BackAndroid is Deprecated

Don't Worry we have Backhandler instead of BackAndroid

Use "react-native-vector-icons": "^6.2.0",

Use Case : 

import { BackHandler } from 'react-native'

componentDidMount() {
    BackHandler.addEventListener('hardwareBackPress', this.handleBackPress);
  }

  componentWillUnmount() {
    BackHandler.removeEventListener('hardwareBackPress', this.handleBackPress);
  }

  handleBackPress = () => {
    this.goBack(); // works best when the goBack is async
    return true;
  }
