# Contributing to React Native WebView
|
||
|
|
||
|
First off, _thank you_ for considering contributing to the React Native Community. The community-supported packages are only possible because of amazing people like you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Secondly, we'd like the contribution experience to be as good as possible. While we are a small all-volunteer team, we are happy to hear feedback about your experience, and if we can make the docs or experience better please let us know.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## How to test changes
|
||
|
|
||
|
After you fork the repo, clone it to your machine, and make your changes, you'll want to test them in an app.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In a new `react-native init` project, do this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
$ yarn add ../react-native-webview
|
||
|
$ react-native link react-native-webview
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You may run into a problem where the `jest-haste-map` module map says react-native was added twice:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
Loading dependency graph...(node:32651) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: jest-haste-map: Haste module naming collision:
|
||
|
Duplicate module name: react-native
|
||
|
Paths: /Users/myuser/TestApp/node_modules/react-native/package.json collides with /Users/myuser/TestApp/node_modules/react-native-webview/node_modules/react-native/package.json
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Just remove the second path like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
$ rm -rf ./node_modules/react-native-webview/node_modules/react-native
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
And then re-run the packager:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
$ react-native start --reset-cache
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
When you make a change, you'll probably need to unlink, remove, re-add, and re-link `react-native-webview`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
$ react-native unlink react-native-webview && yarn remove react-native-webview
|
||
|
$ yarn add ../react-native-webview && react-native link react-native-webview
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
- We use Flow types. TypeScript types will probably be added at a later date.
|
||
|
- We don't intend to support UIWebView and will remove it soon.
|
||
|
- After pulling this repo and installing all dependencies, you can run flow on iOS and Android-specific files using the commands:
|
||
|
- `yarn test:ios:flow` for iOS
|
||
|
- `yarn test:android:flow` for Android
|
||
|
- If you want to add another React Native platform to this repository, you will need to create another `.flowconfig` for it. If your platform is `example`, copy the main flowconfig and rename it to `.flowconfig.example`. Then edit the config to ignore other platforms, and add `.*/*[.]example.js` to the ignore lists of the other platforms. Then add an entry to `package.json` like this:
|
||
|
- `"test:example:flow": "flow check --flowconfig-name .flowconfig.example"`
|
||
|
- Currently you need to install React Native 0.57 to be able to test these types - `flow check` will not pass against 0.56.
