Upgrade from 0.64.1 to 0.74.1. Do you have a good guide with all necessary steps? #7894

ihar-dambrouski · 2024-07-08T20:26:37Z

What happened?

MainActivity and MainApplication files was changed form java to kt extension.
Java File

Kotlin File

How i should work with kotlin file in this case? As you see i MainActivity was extended NavigationActivity, But Navigation Activivty is Java file....

Ok, i tried to follow the instruction in installation guide running npx rnn-link and get this errors

After i fixed this by chaging this line in react-native-navigation/autolink/postlink/path.js:10:42) from
var mainApplicationJava = glob.sync('/MainApplication.java', ignoreFolders)[0]; to this
var mainApplicationJava = glob.sync('/MainApplication.{java,kt}', ignoreFolders)[0];

.

Anyway i have this error when i run npx rnn-link

npx rnn-link

Thank you for using React Native Navigation!

Could you help me? I am using react native 0.74 . Node v18.20.3, "react-native-navigation": "^7.40.1",

What was the expected behaviour?

No response

Was it tested on latest react-native-navigation?

I have tested this issue on the latest react-native-navigation release and it still reproduces.

Help us reproduce this issue!

Team, any proposals?

Hey folks, the Playground project relies on Java files and is still working fine with RN 0.73, which now requires Kotlin files.

can you share the kotlin file?

I use Java and it still works fine

lucasahlgrenToxic · 2024-07-30T10:15:58Z

The same here. An updated installation guide would be very helpful.

bhagatpratik07 · 2024-07-30T10:28:21Z

I am sharing what worked for me using Kotlin file (MainApplication.kt)

Change this -

import com.facebook.react.defaults.DefaultReactNativeHost
import com.facebook.soloader.SoLoader

To this -

import com.reactnativenavigation.NavigationApplication
import com.reactnativenavigation.react.NavigationReactNativeHost

Change this -
class MainApplication : Application(), ReactApplication {
To this -
class MainApplication : NavigationApplication() {
Change -
object : DefaultReactNativeHost(this) {
To -
object : NavigationReactNativeHost (this) {
Remove this line
SoLoader.init(this, false)

@bhagatpratik07 Thanks for sharing! How does your MainActivity.kt look like?

bhagatpratik07 · 2024-07-30T10:55:59Z

MainActivity.kt

package com.appName

import com.reactnativenavigation.NavigationActivity

class MainActivity : NavigationActivity()

lucasahlgrenToxic · 2024-07-30T10:59:46Z

MainActivity.kt

package com.appName

import com.reactnativenavigation.NavigationActivity

class MainActivity : NavigationActivity()

Great, now it is working for me too! Thanks @bhagatpratik07 🏅

bhagatpratik07 · 2024-07-30T11:01:29Z

You're welcome :)

alpamys-qanybet · 2024-08-04T19:38:16Z

You're welcome :)

I have done what you wrote, but not working.

bhagatpratik07 · 2024-08-05T09:44:00Z

can you share more context about the error you are facing?

alpamys-qanybet · 2024-08-05T21:58:55Z

@bhagatpratik07 There were several issues such as path.js {kt,java}, older android SDK, minsdk version and etc. By the way can you give us full list of your react native version, android Sdk version, app build.gradle and etc. The starter snapshot that we can replay your steps, you see, writing down your code does not help, and I even do not know what trouble I face further.

bhagatpratik07 · 2024-08-06T04:12:45Z

My current app has -

"react-native": "0.74.3",

JDK 17

Android SDK -

 ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "34.0.0"
        minSdkVersion = 23
        compileSdkVersion = 34
        targetSdkVersion = 34
        ndkVersion = "26.1.10909125"
        kotlinVersion = "1.9.22"
        RNNKotlinVersion = kotlinVersion
        supportLibVersion = "28.0.0"
    }

app/build.gradle -

implementation project(':react-native-navigation')

Are you facing issues with just react-native-navigation, or does the entire app need an upgrade?

I usually do not upgrade react-native, I am starting new app from scratch and copy paste all my stuff. So, I am starting fresh app and have problems.

hsjoberg · 2024-08-29T10:53:16Z

With such a big gap between react-native versions I would just create a react-native project from scratch using the cli and then import in all your things into that.

That's what I did when moving from 0.69 to 0.70+.
Yes, it's tedious work, but you'll get a fresh start and you can be sure all the react-native internal code is correct.
