Converts a project created with react-native init to use CocoaPods with the React pod from node_modules. This preserves compatibility with react-native link. A converted project will still start the Metro packager automatically via a Run Script build phase in the Xcode project. This is an alternative to performing manual surgery on a project in Xcode.

Work in progress

Community utility CLI for React Native projects.

Converts a project created with react-native init to use CocoaPods with the React pod from node_modules. This preserves compatibility with react-native link. A converted project will still start the Metro packager automatically via a Run Script build phase in the Xcode project. This is an alternative to performing manual surgery on a project in Xcode.

Prerequisites

macOS & Xcode required

The react_pod command requires yarn from Homebrew and the react-native-cli. If installing react_native_util from the Homebrew tap, yarn will be automatically installed if not present. The react-native-cli may also be installed from Homebrew if desired:

brew install jdee/tap/react_native_util --with-react-native-cli

If running from RubyGems, please make sure these packages are installed:

brew install yarn
npm install -g react-native-cli

or

brew install react-native-cli

Installation

[sudo] gem install react_native_util

Install from Homebrew tap

brew install jdee/tap/react_native_util

Include react-native-cli from Homebrew:

brew install jdee/tap/react_native_util --with-react-native-cli

Gemfile

gem 'react_native_util'

Fastlane

See https://github.com/jdee/fastlane-plugin-react_native_util

fastlane add_plugin react_native_util

Usage

react_native_util -h
rn -h
rn react_pod -h

react_pod command

Converts a React Native Xcode project to use the React pod from node_modules instead of the projects in the Libraries group. This makes it easier to manage native dependencies while preserving compatibility with react-native link. The command looks for your app's package.json in the current directory and expects your Xcode project to be located under the ios subdirectory and have the name specified for your app in package.json. If a Podfile is found in the ios subdirectory, the conversion will fail.

The React.xcodeproj in the Libraries group of a project created by react-native init automatically starts the Metro packager via a Run Script build phase. When the react_pod command removes the Libraries group from your app project, it adds an equivalent build phase to your app project so that the packager will automatically be started when necessary by Xcode.

Use the -u or --update option to update the packager script after updating React Native, in case the packager script on the React.xcodeproj changes after it's removed from your project.

Options

option description env. var.
-h, --help Print command help
-t, --trace Print a stack trace in case of error
-u, --update Update a previously converted project
--[no-]repo-update Don't update the local podspec repo REACT_NATIVE_UTIL_REPO_UPDATE

Try it out

Convert examples/TestApp.

First install dependencies.

bundle check || bundle install

Then use the Rake task

bundle exec rake react_pod

or the CLI.

cd examples/TestApp
bundle exec rn react_pod

Finally see the changes.

Convert your own app with Rake

From this repo:

bundle exec rake react_pod[/path/to/your/app]

Rake task

Add to Rakefile:

require 'react_native_util/rake'
ReactNativeUtil::Rake::ReactPodTask.new

Customize:

require 'react_native_util/rake'
ReactNativeUtil::Rake::ReactPodTask.new(
  :react_pod,                         # task name
  'Convert project to use React pod', # description
  'Update project',                   # description for :update task
  chdir: '/path/to/rn/project',       # path to project package.json
  repo_update: true                   # optionally disable pod repo update
)

Override chdir at the command line:

rake react_pod[/path/to/another/rn/project]

Convert project:

rake react_pod

Update converted project:

rake react_pod:update

Ruby script

require 'react_native_util/converter'

Dir.chdir '/path/to/rn/project' do
  begin
    converter = ReactNativeUtil::Converter.new(repo_update: true)

    # Convert a project to use the React pod
    converter.convert_to_react_pod!

    # Update a converted project
    converter.update_project!
  rescue ReactNativeUtil::BaseException => e
    puts "Error from ReactNativeUtil::Converter: #{e.message}"
  end
