evaluating RNPushNotification.getInitialNotification is not an object

Hi all,

I have installed React native push Notification and following the installation guide correctly but I faced this error: TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'RNPushNotification.getInitialNotification ').

import PushNotification from “react-native-push-notification”; import PushNotificationIOS from “@react-native-community/push-notification-ios”; import {Platform} from “react-native”; NotifService.js:

export default class NotifService {
  configure = () => {
    PushNotification.configure({
      // (optional) Called when Token is generated (iOS and Android)
      onRegister: function(token){
        console.log("[Notification Service] on register token:", token);
      },

      // (required) Called when a remote or local notification is opened or received
      onNotification: (notification) => {
        console.log("[Notification Service] onNotification:", notification);
    
        // process the notification
    
        // required on iOS only (see fetchCompletionHandler docs: https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-push-notification-ios)
        notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData);
      },
      senderID: "----",

      permissions: {
          alert: true,
          badge: true,
          sound: true,
      },
      popInitialNotification: true,
      requestPermissions: true,
    });
  }
}

MyComponent.js:

componentDidMount() {
    this.localNotif = new NotifService();
    this.localNotif.configure();
  }

Any help/Ideas please?!

Did you tried: #1335 (comment) ?

Yeah tried that too !

Edit : I reset the cache and deleted the build folder and now the error is gone but I am not getting the notification 😐

Edit 2. : I forgot to create a channel and after reading the changelog I did it properly and now it works perfectly and fine !

The possible fix for this issue is

reset the cache and delete the build folder and now the error will be gone
