react-native: Build on IOS failed

@cipolleschi I’ve resolved it:

According to Firebase docs:

What I did:

• cd ios and added to the top in Podfile: use_frameworks! :linkage => :static
• in Podfile - commented :flipper_configuration => FlipperConfiguration.enabled
• pod install --repo-update

And it is working for me 😉

Hi there, the same issue for me.

I faced same problem. It appeared after installing Firebase SDK and running pod install (faced error message that I need to use use_modular_headers! in Podfile).

After that I can’t build app.

0.71.1 same issue

//fix which works for me: in AppDelegate.mm i’ve changed #import “ReactNativeConfig.h” into #import “RNCConfig.h”

Could you try the following commands, from your app root:

1. cd ios
2. rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock <your_app_name>.xcworkspace build
3. bundle install (if you haven’t already run this)
4. bundle exec pod install
5. cd ..
6. npx react-native run-ios

The first 2 commands will clean up the dependencies for the iOS project The second 2 will reainstall them (notice that bundle will require you to use Ruby 2.7.5, so you may have to install a ruby version manager and update Ruby… You can read more here) The last two will try to build your app again.

So… as far as I can see, you are using a Cocoapods plugin that allow you to mix Static Frameworks and static libraries.

This is not required anymore. To simplify the setup, please remove the lines:

- use_frameworks!    # added by developer

# ...

- $static_framework = ['FlipperKit', 'Flipper', 'Flipper-Folly',
-     'CocoaAsyncSocket', 'ComponentKit', 'DoubleConversion',
-     'glog', 'Flipper-PeerTalk', 'Flipper-RSocket', 'Yoga', 'YogaKit',
-     'CocoaLibEvent', 'OpenSSL-Universal', 'boost-for-react-native']

- pre_install do |installer|
-     Pod::Installer::Xcode::TargetValidator.send(:define_method, :verify_no_static_framework_transitive_dependencies) {}
-     installer.pod_targets.each do |pod|
-         if $static_framework.include?(pod.name)
-           def pod.build_type;
-             Pod::BuildType.static_library
-           end
-         end
-       end
-  end

Now, there is the react-native-video framework that is causing problems. Let’s try to add the following line:

+ pod 'react-native-video', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-video', :modular_headers => true
target 'vidhyadhanTests' do

I’m not 100% confident that it will work, but it should.

Also, if you can prepare a small repro (new app with just the dependencies that creates this problem) I can investigate better.

Thank you so much.

Any solution for this? I’ve done everything, still nothing. I am getting exact same issue for some packages such as like react-native-nfc-manager,react-native-video.ie (in target ‘react-native-nfc-manager’ from project ‘Pods’),(in target ‘react-native-video’ from project ‘Pods’) for almost every packages in my project. I have tried a lot of things such as reinstalling pod file, deleting derived data, updating Xcode. Still no change. Any help?

Thanks for your support but it turns out to be an error caused RNFirebase. I found out by opening the project.xcworkspace on Xcode and going through what seems to be failing my build. I noticed that the RNFirebase was failing my build so I tried uninstalling it and it worked. My project was up and running again. Anyway, thank you guys for the help and support ❤️

Hi there, I’m looking into the issue. In order to investigate this properly, could you tell me what’s the proper setup?

• Are you using the New or the Legacy Architecture?
• Are you using Hermes or JSC as default engine?

I just downloaded the template npx react-native init --version 0.69.3 and then npx react-native run-ios

And it worked fine.

Could you prepare a repro (a github repo would work) with your setup?

@olegtech We know that there are some incompatibilities between RN and Firebase and we are working on trying to solve them. Could you prepare a repro (a github repo would work) with your setup so I can test it out?

@cipolleschi Created a repo: https://github.com/olegtech/pod-issue-repo/tree/main/TestRepo

First of all I’m using version of RN: 0.70.1

What I did:

• npx react-native init TestRepo
• cd ./TestRepo/ios && pod install
• in ios folder - bundle install
• pod install
• return to root folder and run yarn add @react-native-firebase/app
• return to ios folder and run pod install (got an error about use_modular_headers! in Podfile)
• return to root folder and run yarn ios (as npx react-native run-ios)
