React-native-i18n: Undefined is not an object (evaluating 'RNI18n.getLanguages')

[BrettBukowski]

This is the same as https://github.com/AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n/issues/114 and https://github.com/AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n/issues/130, which were closed without a solution.

This appears to be a linking issue, since the 'react-native-i18n module is not correctly linked' warning message is logged to the console.

Steps:

(following the setup instructions from the readme)

React Native - 0.37.0
Xcode 9.1

1. npm install react-native-i18n --save
2. react-native link
3. react-native run-ios
4. Import a file in your project that contains import I18n from 'react-native-i18n';

When manually building the project from Xcode and not through the react native cli, everything works fine.

I think react-native link has been breaking builds recently

[mobihunterz]

For me as well the error occurs. Although build works fine with XCode as mentioned.

This is why native development seems to be best option.

I understand react-native link will modify your Podfile if your dependent packages contain a podspec.

I assume this means the react-native-i18n podspec is broken?

It should be fixed in the new version: https://github.com/AlexanderZaytsev/react-native-i18n/releases/tag/v2.1.0 :)

@zoontek What happened with the version? The link doesn't work and I can't find the version.

[MeKyleH]

So was it fixed? The post by @zoontek says it will be fixed in v2.2.0 but I see the latest version as 2.0.12. Any way we can help to fix?

[zoontek]

The version introduce a regression. The next version was the one linked.

[zoontek]

Are you all using a Podfile?

[MeKyleH]

I'm using Expo, so no Podfiles for me :).

[zoontek]

You can't use this lib with Expo, that's probably why :)
