OS version

General versions

1. react-native: 068.0
2. react: 17.0.2
3. beacon library: 1.1.0
4. pod. 1.11.3
5. npm: 9.2.0

Steps to reproduce

1. react-native init myTestApp --version=0.68.0
2. Add library version 1.1.0 ("react-native-beacons-manager": "git://github.com/MacKentoch/react-native-beacons-manager.git#53c1bda")

const App = ({route, navigation}) => {
    Beacons.requestAlwaysAuthorization();
    Beacons.allowsBackgroundLocationUpdates(true);

    return (
        <View>
          <Text style={{color: 'white', top: 150}}>test</Text>
        </View>
    );
};

export default App;

Expected behavior

The app should be started successfully

Actual behavior

I get the following errors:

Error: Requiring module "node_modules/react-native-beacons-manager/index.js", which threw an exception: Invariant Violation: `new NativeEventEmitter()` requires a non-null argument. 

TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating '_$$_REQUIRE(_dependencyMap[2], "react-native-beacons-manager").Beacons')

I have used the library several times in my projects. But now I get the mentioned error and don't know why. I have even created a minimal example. This is described above. But still I have the error. Does anyone know why?

[sashko9807]

Beacons is default export. Try import Beacons from 'react-native-beacons-manager'; instead of import {Beacons} from 'react-native-beacons-manager';

Hi @iSaBo96 ,

Are you able to make it work?

[iSaBo96]

@gigflex yes, what is your problem with this?

[sangheraajit]

Hi @iSaBo96

we are able to run the code somehow but getting the following error

[CoreBluetooth] XPC connection invalid 2023-03-13 21:48:22.061407+0530 beaconApp[4021:2131472] [javascript] iosPLatform 2023-03-13 21:48:22.062827+0530 beaconApp[4021:2130220] createBeaconRegion with: identifier - uuid 2023-03-13 21:48:22.062945+0530 beaconApp[4021:2130220] [Client] {"msg":"Region is nil"} 2023-03-13 21:48:22.063305+0530 beaconApp[4021:2129927] Failed ranging region: Error Domain=kCLErrorDomain Code=17 "(null)"

beaconsDidRange never fires

[iSaBo96]

Have you linked the library?

You must link the library in XCode under "Libraries". You have to link the binary "RNiBeacon.a" in you project phases

[iSaBo96]

which version do you use?

[sangheraajit]

@iSaBo96 We are using git+https://github.com/MacKentoch/react-native-beacons-manager.git

and ios 13 We are unable to find RNiBeacon.a

[sangheraajit]

Hi @iSaBo96 ,

We are able to see Beacons ranging started succesfully and Beacons monitoring started succesfully

log but beaconsDidRange event never fires

[iSaBo96]

You have to add RNiBeacon.a

I also use "react-native-beacons-manager": "git+https://github.com/MacKentoch/react-native-beacons-manager.git", in my package.json file.

Please follow the path in the screenshot to add the RNiBeacon.a. If you do not found it, do a "pod install" in your ios folder

[iSaBo96]

And you have to link the library manually

And you have to the the following path in the linked library. Go there to "build settings" and add the following:

In your App you have to add the following under "Build settings" > "Header Search Paths"

Hi @iSaBo96

Do you have a working copy if you can share that will be a great help. Thanks

[iSaBo96]

Please tell me which react-native version you are using. I Use 0.70.6. I have a working copy, but i cannot share this, because it is a production code.

From which country you are? Maybe i can offer you a call tomorrow? I come from germany and the current time is 18:45

@sangheraajit, @iSaBo96

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make this library work with RN 0.72.5 on iOS with no luck.

Are you using THIS repo or any of the many forks out here? What version of RN are you successfully using? What iOS version are you successfully using?

Thanks!! Alberto

[iSaBo96]

I use the version i wrote above :)
