Bare workflow issue after upgrading to RN 0.65.0 — potentially related to splash-screen

Expo Development Tools
1

Hi, everyone,

I just tried upgrading my bare workflow app to React Native 0.65.0 and now have a problem. The app builds fine but when running, I see a red error screen on the iOS Simulator (content below) and in the console, the following message:

No native splash screen registered for given view controller. Call 'SplashScreen.show' for given view controller first.

Here’s the information in the red error screen in the Simulator:

Exception '-[RCTModuleRegistry getAllExportedModules]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x600000854840' was thrown while invoking addProxiedListener on target UMReactNativeEventEmitter with params (
    ExpoNotificationsHandlerModule,
    onHandleNotification
)

For context, I’m using the AppLoading component as follows. Before this RN 0.65.0 upgrade, I was having no problems and the splash screen was working as expected.

App.tsx

// ...

async function _cacheResourcesAsync() {
  await Font.loadAsync({
    Poppins_300Light,
    Poppins_400Regular,
    // ...
  })
}

if (!appIsReady || state.isLoading) {
  return (
    <AppLoading
      startAsync={_cacheResourcesAsync}
      onFinish={() => setAppIsReady(true)}
      onError={(error) => Sentry.Native.captureException(error)}
    />
  )
}

return {
  // ...
}

I’ve tried clearing everything — node_modules, yarn cache, bundler cache, pods, etc. — and still have this issue. I’m hoping that there’s something Expo-related that maybe needs upgrading for the just-released RN 0.65.0 but I’m not sure. If there’s anything else I can share that may help, please let me know and I’d be happy to do so.

Thanks in advance.

From the stack trace, it looks like ExpoNotificationsHandlerModule is actually the problem. What if you uninstall expo-notifications, does it work then?

Hi, Charlie.

Thanks for the message. I just uninstalled expo-notifications (and commented-out any related code) and I still get this console error:

WARN  Possible Unhandled Promise Rejection (id: 0):
Error: No native splash screen registered for given view controller. Call 'SplashScreen.show' for given view controller first.

That said, the stack trace is a little different — this time, it’s mentioning ExpoInAppPurchases:

Exception '-[RCTModuleRegistry getAllExportedModules]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6000038dddc0' was thrown while invoking addProxiedListener on target UMReactNativeEventEmitter with params (
    ExpoInAppPurchases,

Looking at this issue, it seems like the problem is with expo-* packages.

Update: I removed expo-notifications and expo-in-app-purchases and I no longer have any errors or warnings.

Yeah, looks like we need to update some of our packages for RN 65

Thanks for looking into this with me, Charlie.

I know these things take time but do you have even the slightest idea when these packages may be updated? I only ask because I’m relatively close to releasing an app and, ideally, I’d like to be running RN 0.65.0 so I’d potentially hold off a little before if I thought the expo-* packages may be updated soon.

Thanks again. Have a nice day.

Hi. I’m not part of the Expo team, but I believe it would be at least the end of the year before they switch the Expo SDK to be based on RN 0.65.x.

SDK 42 is based on 0.63.2.

And as far as I can tell, SDK 43 (probably due around the end of September) will be based on 0.64.2.

If I were to guess I don’t think SDK 44 would be based on RN 0.65 either.

Maybe it’s possible to update these packages to be compatible with RN 0.65.0 before actually updating the SDK to be based on RN 0.65.x. I don’t know. I suppose if you can narrow down the cause of the issue then maybe you could patch RN 0.65, or else the affected expo packages to get them to work together. And maybe the Expo team would be interested in a PR.

Hi. Thanks for the message — that’s good to know. This is my first app with RN/Expo so I’m learning how these things work as I go. It’s not essential that I use RN 0.65.0 in production but seeing as I had to eject for In-App Purchases, I figured one benefit of that would be that I could keep up with the latest React and React Native updates — so far, that’s been the case. I guess there’s more to it with these expo-* packages, though.

Thanks again.
