0.61.5 Discussion

[grabbou]

Conversations on this thread are limited to 0.61 releases major issues and backport (cherry-pick) requests from commits that are already on master.

An example of a good such request is a bug fix for a serious issue that has been merged into master but did not make the 0.61.5 cut.

In other words, if you cannot point to a particular commit on master, then your request likely belongs as a new issue in http://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues.

can we pick the new cli version?

react-native-community/cli#768

to improve support to monorepos on android?

@sibelius you don't need to wait for a new release for that, you can use yarn resolutions in your package.json as such:

  "resolutions": {
    "@react-native-community/cli-platform-android": "3.0.3",
    "@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios": "3.0.0",
    "@react-native-community/cli-tools": "3.0.0",
    "@react-native-community/cli-types": "3.0.0",
    "@react-native-community/cli": "3.0.4",
}

You don't really need to do anything I guess. react-native depends on ^3.0.0, so it will get all the latest CLIs anyway, without any resolutions needed.

hermesCommand in react.gradle uses wrong path. That's when you use a custom folder structure and do a release build with Hermes enabled. The issue comes from this line:

https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/0e4bcaa2960a2b1aa42dbe716fc6a35652aa7207/react.gradle#L33

I opened a new issue, but I think it's also relevant to mention here, as I read that this issue was fixed in the past, and might be returning.
