How to add custom xml layout with expo plugin?

[christocracy]

I don’t know. I guess you’d have to create a custom Expo plug-in to inject your desired xml file into your app.

[pixelkoduje]

You have an idea? As in. inject any file? Is this possible in the expo custom plugin?

[christocracy]

Like I said: “I don’t know”.

google “expo plug-in copy file”

[pixelkoduje]

And how do I inject the file, to a place that does not exist XD Android folder does not exist, so through the "fs" library I am not able to drop the file, to such a place.

[christocracy]

I don’t know. I have little experience with Expo.

@pixelkoduje look to another expo plugins. f.e. here xml file coping from project to android folder

[Kriznar]

This is the solution. Edit your metro.config.js in such a way: let config = getDefaultConfig(__dirname); config.resolver.assetExts.push('xml'); module.exports = config;

This includes xml files in app/src/main/res/layout folder. Then put your template file in this folder and it should work.

@christocracy Maybe this could be added to the documentation so that Expo users can use this.
