Ignite: react-native-cli must be installed globally?

[vinogradov]

./node_modules/.bin/ignite new PizzaApp
Missing react-native-cli. Install with npm i -g react-native-cli and try again.

Well, what if I don't want to install react-native-cli globally? I have different versions of react native for every project. So having the globally installed react-native/react-native-cli doesn't make any sense for me.

react-native-cli will dispatch the commands to your project’s react-native cli. You should be fine to set it up globally.

We only use it for the init command though.

How do you set up new React Native projects on your end without a global install?

@skellock thanks for the response.

How do you set up new React Native projects on your end without a global install?

yarn add react-native-cli
./node_modules/.bin/react-native-cli init

I don't create new projects every day usually. So it's totally fine to add extra ./node_modules/.bin/

My point is that if a package depends on another package this dependency should be declared explicitly (in package.json)

[skellock]

I didn't realize you could create the projects like that. Interesting. I'm on mobile atm, but I'll give that a shot. If it's supported by react-native, then we can problem add support for this too.

Interesting.

Install globally using following command

yarn global add react-native-cli
yarn global add ignite-cli

[kevinvangelder]

Globally installing react-native-cli is the official way to initialize a react-native project. At this point it is unlikely that we will support this abnormal use-case, unless someone wants to submit it as a pull request.

react-native is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file
