react-native-vision-camera: 🐛 Errors when building for simulator, works fine on devices

What were you trying to do?

I’m trying to build my react-native application, it works on devices, but when I try to build on the simulator, it gives me plenty of errors, I’ve already tried the solutions in the troubleshooting guide, didn’t change much.

Reproduceable Code

No response

What happened instead?

When selecting “any iOS Device arm64” it builds without issues, and I can create the IPA file and test on TestFlight, but when trying to test on simulator, regardless of version, it gives me a collection of erros, usually around the MLKIT components and:

This issue is already closed. But I had exactly the same problem and found a solution for it. So maybe it will help somebody in the future, if I share it here:

The build failed only in projects when using the frame processor “react-native-vision-camera”.

When I experienced this issue I developed on an MBP with M1Max Apple Silicon running macOS Monterey and XCode 13.3. I wanted to give it another try with a different macOS / XCode version and did a checkout on my old 2017 Intel based MBP: And everything worked fine. Then I updated my old Intel based MBP to the same versions of node / macOS / XCode and the builds still ran sucessfully.

It seems that the only issue is the hardware platform. Even when working with Rosetta.

So here is a fix that worked on my Apple silicon MPB: Make sure that you add “arm64” as “Excluded Architecture” to your project AND the pod configuration:

post_install do |installer|
  installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
    target.build_configurations.each do |config|
      config.build_settings['EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]'] = "arm64"
    end
  end
end

This is happening to me to:

macbook air m2 xcode 14.1 RN 0.69.7

The workaround on my podfile is to exclude arm64 compilation:

  post_install do |installer|
    react_native_post_install(installer)
    __apply_Xcode_12_5_M1_post_install_workaround(installer)
    
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
      # Prevents dependencies to be compiled under m1
      installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
          config.build_settings['EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]'] = "arm64"
        end
      end

      if target.respond_to?(:product_type) and target.product_type == "com.apple.product-type.bundle"
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            config.build_settings['CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED'] = 'NO'
        end
      end
    end
  end

So I’m aware already that the problem was the new chip and all the headache that comes with it, this solution, where you put the “arm64” at excluded architectures, solves a lot of different issues i’ve been having, in a lot of different libs, but, in this particular case, it didn’t, still, glad to know it worked for you.
