[kidx5452]

yeahh.. i am not being able to use this library because of RN 0.60+. Please update 'rnpm' props in packages.json

@Sunhat would it be possible to release new version of the package to the npm?

[andreifilip123]

Any upcoming release ? Or we should use the master branch ?

[iamandiradu]

Release?

[nathantaal]

[christheyounger]

[a-tokyo]

Can you please Release? 💪

[Sunhat]

Dead project. Nobody should use this.

[rafalolszewski94]

@Sunhat any recommendations on alternatives?

[ziyaddin]

@rafalolszewski94 have you found any alternatives?

@ziyaddin I use this for now https://github.com/pluralcom/react-native-extra-dimensions-android

{
    "react-native-extra-dimensions-android": "https://github.com/pluralcom/react-native-extra-dimensions-android",
}

[Sunhat]

If Airbnb do not need this, then I'm going to say nobody else does either

[Sunhat]

Please provide me with an argument as to why this is necessary?

Example usecase:

  if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
    const ExtraDimensions = require('react-native-extra-dimensions-android');
    const STATUSBAR_HEIGHT = ExtraDimensions.get('STATUS_BAR_HEIGHT');
    const WINDOW_HEIGHT =
      ExtraDimensions.get('REAL_WINDOW_HEIGHT') -
      STATUSBAR_HEIGHT -
      ExtraDimensions.get('SOFT_MENU_BAR_HEIGHT');
    return { STATUSBAR_HEIGHT, WINDOW_HEIGHT };
  }

NOTE: Different existing RN projects ALREADY use this repo, which means that upgrading RN would be an issue just because of RNPM issues that can be maintained.

Yes, I fail to see why accepting a PR and creating a release tag is too big a burden. The package is otherwise functional, just needs an occasional update that others in the community can provide. You just need to create a tag.

@ziyaddin I use this for now https://github.com/pluralcom/react-native-extra-dimensions-android

{
    "react-native-extra-dimensions-android": "https://github.com/pluralcom/react-native-extra-dimensions-android",
}

This is not working. Since in package.json has files defined and it does not have react-native.config.js in it. So npm does not fetch react-native.config.js file

If anyone is using https://github.com/pluralcom/react-native-extra-dimensions-android and would like us to publish an NPM release instead of just github, please let me know 👍🏻

NPM is more reliable since using github link simply refers to the latest version and not an exact version
