expo: Error: Permissions module not found. Are you sure that Expo modules are properly linked?

Summary

I updated all the expo dependencies (ink. react-native-unimodules at ver 0.14.1) in my bare react-native app. Since then, I’m having troubles when a module tries to fetch the permissions. " Error: Permissions module not found. Are you sure that Expo modules are properly linked?"

There is no documentation regarding the new module expo-modules-core (also installed). Did I miss something ?

Might have been caused by #12961 @tsapeta

Managed or bare workflow? If you have `ios/` or `android/` directories in your project, the answer is bare!

Thanks @brentvatne bumped react-native-unimodules to 0.14.5 and now works. Thanks

can someone share a minimal reproducible example of this issue?

i believe that there may be a library with an incorrect dependency. we collapsed interfaces into a single package and removed expo-permissions from react-native-unimodules in this release.

you can work around it by installing whatever package is listed as missing, eg: expo install unimodules-permissions-interface and/or expo install expo-permissions. a reproducible example would be helpful for us to resolve the underlying issue, though

Got the same with the imagePicker in my project with unimodules. Tried different things like different versions of the package, unimodules, excluding the expo-permission but the permission interface cannot be found.

Made a test project @brentvatne which return the error on iOS and Android that there is no permission interface: https://github.com/wbroek/permissionTest

We are on version 0.13 of unimodules because of https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/13168 so now 0.13 and 0.14 are not working for us.
