<Image /> Local URL not working

[rickheere]

Hi everyone,

In the docs it is mention that bundled assets can be targeted by path starting with ./:
Local URL: eg ./profile.png. This image must be bundled as an asset in the mobile app.

But this doesn't work.

I had a look at the code and it looks like the ./ path gets normalized with the server url and then passed in as imageProps.source = { uri: source };.

From what I can see in the React Native docs local assets need to be required() and can be assigned to the source prop right away.

Thanks for flagging, we will look into it since it seems like a regression and local URLs should work as documented.
