React-native-firebase: 'RNFirebaseMessaging.h' file not found

[joegoodall1]

Environment:

Target Platform:
iOS (iOS 9 - iPhone 8)
Development Operating System:
macOS Sierra
Build tools: Xcode
react-native: 0.50.3
"react-native-firebase": "3.1.0"

Everything works fine when the podfile is set up like this:

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'MyApp' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for MyApp
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
  pod 'RNFirebase', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-firebase'
  pod "yoga", :path => "../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga"
  pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [
  'BatchedBridge', # Required For React Native 0.45.0+
  'Core',
  'DevSupport'
  # Add any other subspecs you want to use in your project
  ]
end

I've followed the new instructions for installation and removed RNFirebase & React & Yoga from the podfile so it looks like this...

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'MyApp' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for MyApp
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'

end

...however, this causes XCode to fail with this error

/Users/ios/MyApp/AppDelegate.m:16:9: 'RNFirebaseMessaging.h' file not found

Have tried cleaning project and removing/reinstalling pods and node modules but no luck.

@joegoodall1 could you provide us with the code of your AppDelegate.m file also please, thanks

[joegoodall1]

@Salakar Thanks for the fast response.

Hi @Salakar,

Any update on this?

[joegoodall1]

@Salakar Have now got this working. Following the new install instructions (which have changed slightly from when we first installed react-native-firebase) seems to have sorted it.

[hama]

@joegoodall1 how did you fix it ? i have the same issue.

[brunolemos]

Me too

[chrisbianca]

@hama @brunolemos assuming you are using RN 0.50+, then please take a look at: https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/issues/636

[brunolemos]

@chrisbianca mine is 0.49.5

[chrisbianca]

Do you have RNFirebase listed in your Cocoapods? Or have you used react-native link?

[brunolemos]

I used link.
Tried this comment but didn't help.

@chrisbianca If I rename RNFirebaseMessaging to RNFIRMessaging it works!

[joegoodall1]

Hi @hama,

These are the changes I made to get things working.

1) Run react-native link react-native-firebase
2) Ensure [FIRApp configure]; comes right after NSURL *jsCodeLocation; as mentioned here (previously this was placed further down the file and was being called too late).

[projekt86]

Hi!
I had the same problem. This is how I fixed:
I'm using react-native link not pods.

In Xcode:
1. Libraries/RNFirebase -> Build Phases:
- add to headers RNFirebaseMessaging.h

1. Libraries/RNFirebase -> Build Settings:

2. In packaging section set Public Headers Folder Path debug and release to default (/usr/local/include)

3. Change #import "RNFirebaseMessaging.h" to #import

4. Clean, Build

[drailanjohngss]

@projekt86 how can I add the RNFirebaseMessaging.h in the headers Libraries/RNFirebase -> Build Phases? I can't find it.

[drailanjohngss]

I solved this one by putting
$(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios/RNFirebase/messaging
in to the Header Search paths

[JF-13]

Just making "$(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native-firebase/ios/RNFirebase" recursive worked for me

[GentryRiggen]

@JF-13 has the right answer as it will ensure each module beyond messaging will work. Thanks fam.

[ghost]

If you're using Pods, there's no need to import RNFirebaseMessaging.h or add anything in AppDelegate.m.

[gianpaj]

@calintamasyopeso that's not true. If those files are not imported you get these errors:

▸ Compiling AppDelegate.m
