Warning: Accesing view manager configs for getConstants

When using RNGH 1.4.1 with RN 0.60 the following warning appears:

Accessing view manager configs directly off UIManager via UIManager['getConstants'] is no longer supported. Use UIManager.getViewManagerConfig('getConstants') instead.

The stack trace points at createHandler.js:39

Edit, you can now use expo install react-native-gesture-handler. It will take care of everything I listed below. 😁 (Don’t forget to clean your cache with expo start --clear)

For anyone using Expo, brent pointed out a way to fix it. Basically, you need to install the specific versions listed here.

As of writing, the version required is ~1.3.0. Because NPM doesn’t play nice with the tilde (~) you might have to edit it manually in your package.json.

But for those who want a quick fix, here are some commands that you can run to fix it.

// make sure you have the latest expo-cli (if you have >=3.1.0, you can skip this)
$ npm install -g expo-cli@latest

// remove your node_modules and package-lock.json (just to be sure)
$ rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json

// check if you have `react-native-gesture-handler` listed already (if so **remove it**)
$ cat package.json | grep react-native-gesture-handler

// use expo to install the appropriate version
$ expo install react-native-gesture-handler

// start expo with a clean cache
$ expo start --clear

hey guys, just downgrade react-native-gesture-handler to 1.3.0.

You can directly change version in your package.json to ~1.3.0 and run npm i/yarn or remove it and install through expo how described here
