Same here, the problem seems to be with react-native-parsed-text, react-native-lightbox and react-native-invertible-scroll-view (using old React.PropTypes & React.createClass) :

undefined is not an object (evaluating '_react2.default.PropTypes.shape')

How can i fix this issue?

[ptfly]

You have to manually fix it by npm i -S prop-types and then go to every dependency which is using React.PropTypes notation or import React, {PropTypes} from 'react' and replace with import PropTypes from 'prop-types

Same issue here..and I hope there will be a better fix than manually updating

[matejkramny]

@ptfly can't be serious.. there are 27 files just in this repo that would need manual updating

[jamesnoosh]

Since this is blocking issue, can someone fix this and check in code? Thank you in advance.

This problem vanished for me like magic when I changed the dev machine from an Ubuntu one to my local Mac. Don't know the reason at all. node version is on both machines 6.11.2, npm 3.10.10. Somehow node_moduleswere messed up. I solved the whole problem by uploading the node_modules folder from my Mac to the Ubuntu machine and problem was gone there too!

[jamesnoosh]

For me, node version is 8.2.1 and npm version is 5.3.0. Are these versions are too new to cause such issue?

This is what I got when I run jest

    TypeError: Cannot read property 'propTypes' of undefined

    Warning: PropTypes has been moved to a separate package. Accessing React.PropTypes is no longer supported and will be removed completely in React 16. Use the prop-types package on npm instead. (https://fb.me/migrating-from-react-proptypes)
