[Android] Requiring unknown module "react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons"

I followed every step in the installation guide. But I keep getting this error. I have already read #32 and could not solve the issue. I also tried to change MaterialIcons to FontAwesome but no joy.

Usage in my file:

var Icon = require('react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons');

What am I missing?

That’s an npm/packager issue for sure. Close all terminal windows, delete your node_modules folder, run npm cache clean and npm install. That should fix it 😃

I don’t know exactly but I think npm cache clean and npm install fixed it. Funny thing is that this error occurs only in case of requiring react-native-vector-icons. Other packages never seem to throw the same error. Anyways, thanks for the help.
