React Native: npm link local dependency, unable to resolve module

Question

I am developing a button ui package for react native. I try to build an example project to test this button. The directory structure is as follows:

my-button         


        

Answer 1

For those still looking for a simple solution without other dependency, try this:

yarn --version
1.21.1

npm --version
6.13.4

1. Install in project root

cd my-button
yarn install or npm install

2. register linking in my-button

yarn link or npm link

3. Install example project

cd example
yarn add ../ or npm add ../

4. link to my-button

yarn link my-button or npm link my-button

5. complete pod installation (if necessary)

cd ios
pod install
