undefined is not an object (evaluating '_datetimepicker.DateTimePickerAndroid.open' (android)

[AchrafBn]

I display DateTimePicker using the imperative API , it was working before , and today it throws the following error

`TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating '_datetimepicker.DateTimePickerAndroid.open')
at node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Core/ExceptionsManager.js:104:6 in reportException

Code

import DateTimePicker, {
  DateTimePickerAndroid,
} from "@react-native-community/datetimepicker";

 const handleShowPicker = (f: string) => {
      DateTimePickerAndroid.open({
        themeVariant: "dark",
        value:new Date()
        mode: "date",
        display: "spinner",
        onChange: (event, date) => handleDateOnChange(event, date, f),
      });
  };

       <Box>
                   <TextLink
    
               
                  onPress={() => {
                    handleShowPicker();
                  }}
                TextLink/>
</Box>

And EsLint show error when Importing "DateTimePickerAndroid" Module '"@react-native-community/datetimepicker"' has no exported member 'DateTimePickerAndroid'. Did you mean to use 'import DateTimePickerAndroid from "@react-native-community/datetimepicker"' instead?ts(2614)

I tried to upgrade to latest version but expo keep showing warning

Some dependencies are incompatible with the installed expo package version:
 - @react-native-community/datetimepicker - expected version: 4.0.0 - actual version installed: 6.4.0

Hello and thanks for reporting, did you check in node_modules if the DateTimePickerAndroid.open method is there? I guessing that the problem is that you're probably using a very old version. I recommend you upgrade to the latest version (you can use expo prebuild) and make sure that the method you're calling exists in the sources. Thank you 🙂
