I tried to get the plugin running with a fresh RN 0.72.x install the other day and can confirm that the app won't build.

Hi,

The project and its dependencies are getting too old. We will have to update the project but it requires to support both new and old RN architecture. It is not an easy upgrade. Also, Swift is still not supported with the new architecture (unless on 0.72.2 and xcode 14.3) and native part is unfortunately in Swift. We don't plan to migrate to objective-c because it looks like a backward development.

I am currently focusing on upgrading one of api.video RN library. I will start to work on this, when I will have the time.

[soemarko]

Any workaround for this? Can I just downgrade RN for now? Which version should I set it to?

[Veryinheart]

any update on this? I get this error on RN version 0.72 and api.video version 1.2.4.

[ThibaultBee]

Hi,

We are currently in the process of upgrading to 0.73 (and support new architecture). See https://github.com/apivideo/api.video-reactnative-live-stream/pull/67 instead.

Hi,

We are currently in the process of upgrading to 0.73 (and support new architecture). See #67 instead.

Hi, I see it is in the process. do you have ETA of this? how long does it take to be fixed? many thanks

[ThibaultBee]

The dev is done. I will tackle a last issue with the Android preview.

But... the release is not ready yet. We are expecting feedbacks/tests from the community before releasing. See https://github.com/apivideo/api.video-reactnative-live-stream/pull/67

[ThibaultBee]

Could you test with 2.0.0?

[soemarko]

Missing type definition?

Could not find a declaration file for module '@api.video/react-native-livestream'. '/Users/s/App/Livestream/node_modules/@api.video/react-native-livestream/lib/commonjs/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  Try `npm i --save-dev @types/api.video__react-native-livestream` if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts) file containing `declare module '@api.video/react-native-livestream';

And it used to have LiveStreamMethods for ref type, is it gone now?

[ThibaultBee]

Hi, Type have been renamed ApiVideo..... LiveStreamMethods has been renamed ApiVideoLiveStreamMethods. It is in the CHANGELOG.md

[soemarko]

Gotcha, but the type definition is still missing?

[ThibaultBee]

Yes. But fixed in https://github.com/apivideo/api.video-reactnative-live-stream/pull/77

[ThibaultBee]

I am closing this issue as the initial issue is resolved with 2.0.0.
