react-native link react-native-oauth fails on Windows

See original GitHub issue

It seems the addition of the prelink and postlink rnpm commands to the json.package prevent Windows users from using this tool. The shell scripts you have written are not windows env compatible and cause rnpm-install to crash. I’ll see if I can write a fix for this.

rnpm-install ERR! It seems something went wrong while linking. Error: spawn UNKNOWN

Removing the following from package.json allows linking to complete succesfuly.

  "rnpm": {
    "commands": {
      "prelink": "node_modules/react-native-oauth/bin/prepare.sh",
      "postlink": "node_modules/react-native-oauth/bin/cocoapods.sh"
    },
    "ios": {
      "project": "ios/OAuthManager.xcodeproj"
    },
    "android": {
      "packageInstance": "new OAuthManagerPackage()"
    }
  },

Not really a solution but a work around for now… I guess. I’m not experienced enough with npm packages to figure out how to run shells from Windows CMD so this library would be more cross compatible.

manually removed this section will cause app failed to generate apk due to verify release resource step failed. I think should update this changes on repo instead of remove it manually.
