`React` pod dependency causes build to fail

Getting:

... tries to require `react-native`, but there are several files providing this module. You can delete or fix them: 

  * `<project_path>/ios/Pods/React/package.json`
  * `<project_path>/node_modules/react-native/package.json`

Any workaround for this issue?

For history, I fixed my issue by manual linking react-native-fast-image (since pod is a real mess with react-native but I need it for firebase…).

After

• deleting node_modules
• deleting ios/Pods
• then npm install
• manual linked the library (to avoid react-link link to update podfile)
• pod update with pod:

# Uncomment the next line to define a global platform for your project
platform :ios, '9.0'

target 'beewhizz' do
  # Uncomment the next line if you're using Swift or would like to use dynamic frameworks
  # use_frameworks!

  # Pods for beewhizz
  pod 'Firebase/Core'
  pod 'Firebase/Auth'
  pod 'Firebase/Firestore'
  pod 'Firebase/Crash'
  pod 'Firebase/Messaging'
end

• then pod update

I had this issue like in stack overflow

To finally fix it I had to:

• delete Developer/xcode/DereivedDatacontent
• clean ios project (xcode clean project)
• delete ios/build entire directory

NOW IT WORKS ✌️

@MacKentoch @n1ru4l – thanks! I was eventually able to make it work using by following the example:

https://github.com/DylanVann/react-native-fast-image/blob/master/ReactNativeFastImageCocoaPodsExample/ios/Podfile

But it was very hard… Had a long struggle! 😃

Using React has a pod dependency was the source of pain on my case
