`React/RCTBridgeModule.h` file not found
Getting this error while building a react-native iOS app on xcode.
Started getting this error after npm install and rpm linking react-native-fs library. But after searching online for a solution, I noticed that many people are getting the same error while installing other react native libraries.
A possible solution suggested by many is, Adding the following under "Build Settings" -> "Header Search Paths".
$(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native/React
- (Recursive)
But no luck with this solution, still getting the same error
In my case this particular problem happened when I was trying to archive a 0.40+ react-native app for iOS (solution was found here: Reliable build on ^0.39.2
fails when upgrading to ^0.40.0
).
What happened was that Xcode was trying to build the react-native libraries in parallel and was building libraries with implicit react dependencies before actually building the react library.
The solution in my case was to:
-
Disable the parallel builds:
- Xcode menu -> Product -> Scheme -> Manage Shemes...
- Double click on your application
- Build tab -> uncheck Parallelize Build
-
Add react as a project dependecy
- Xcode Project Navigator -> drag React.xcodeproj from Libraries to root tree
- Build Phases Tab -> Target Dependencies -> + -> add React
Make sure you disable Parallelise Build
and add React
target above your target
