Each and Every version really matters. This may be done other way for another version. But for Mac High Sierra follow this:
My System:
High Sierra 10.13.3
XCode 9.4
Node 8.11.1
react-native-cli#2.0.1
watchman 4.9.0
react-native#57.8
android studio 3.6.3
Android Emulator: Pixel API 28 : Android Pie 9
Also Tested: Genymotion 3.1.0 : Samsung Galaxy S10 Android 10
Iphone Emulator 11.3
Xcode Build location Unique: xcode -> Preference->Locations -> Advanced
[If you do not installed nvm then uninstall node completely then install it through nvm. It is not required but highly recommended]
nvm install 8.11.1
THIS VERSION DOES NOT REQUIRE yarn. So I deleted yarn cause later version was making trouble for yarn,
You may try with yarn if it is already installed but for this build not required
brew uninstall yarn
brew install watchman
do not use npx rather you are going toward particular version
npm install -g react-native-cli#2.0.1
add react-native to .bash_profile:
export PATH="/Users/hasan/.nvm/versions/node/v8.11.1/bin/:$PATH"
*if you have used oracle java over version 8, uninstall that with the following:
sudo rm -rf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk
Install openJDK8:
brew tap AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk
brew cask install adoptopenjdk8
ALWAYS USE VERSION NUMBER. REACT NATIVE DOESN'T FIX ANYTHING MAGICALLY
react-native init RealmProject --version 0.57.8
Install android sdk:
http://reactnative.dev/docs/0.57/getting-started
Add the following to .bash_profile:
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/hasan/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
After above complete successfully:
react-native run-android
react-native run-ios
if you had any error MAKE SURE you delete all caches:
watchman watch-del-all && rm -rf $TMPDIR/react-* && rm -rf node_modules/ && npm cache verify && npm install && npm start -- --reset-cache
up to this point there will be no problem but to make it more protected:
Change gradle-wrapper.properties 4.4 to 4.9 under Project>android>gradle>wrapper>gradle-wraper.properties:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.9-all.zip
android>build.gradle plugin version change to 3.2.1
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
Cheers and Happy Coding!
