React-native-snap-carousel: ComponentWillReceiveProps deprecated

[subhechhu]

I have been experiencing this warning.
I am currently using react-native: 0.59.6
The current react-native-snap-carousel is 3.8.0

Can you help me out to deal with this one please?

You can use componentDidUpdate and compare actual props with prevProps instead of nextProps :)

The deprecation warning is not fired from consumers code but from the Carousel component itself. Indeed internally it has componentWillReceiveProps defined.

As a temporary solution for my project I explicitly ignored the warning:

// top level index.js
import { YellowBox } from 'react-native';
YellowBox.ignoreWarnings(['Warning: componentWillReceiveProps']);

The Pagination component also has this issue. The package does need an update to replace componentWillReceiveProps.

Hi guys,

@kiarashws was kind enough to submit a PR for that (see #568).

Now I need you to try it in order to make sure that everything is working properly. Once I get enough positive feedback, this will get merged :-)
