How to link react-native-vector-icons to project

I am getting a build error with the react-native-icons. I did the linking command from the installation instructions from their github site. the message said the icons were already linked to the project.

We have updated the docs of Native Starter Pro. Please check the first question under FAQs

http://strapmobile.com/docs/native-starter-pro/faqs/

Probabilities:

  • This might be the problem if you have 'npm3' installed in your system.
  • Make sure you have installed 'npm2'.
  • Linking the Vector Icons repo in XCode will solve the issue

Solution 1: Drag-drop to link RN Vector Icons files:

  • In your finder / computer, navigate to (project folder) -> node_modules -> react-native-vector-icons
  • Drag the RNVectorIcons.xcodeproj to the Libraries in the sidebar as explained in the image below enter image description here

Solution 2: Manually link the RN Vector Icons files:

  • Go to 'Build Phases' in Xcode
  • Link Binaries with Libraries by clicking on '+'
  • Click on 'Add Other'
  • Navigate to 'NativeStarter' (project folder) -> node_modules -> react-native-vector-icons
  • Select 'RNVectorIcons.xcodeproj'
  • Clean Build
  • Build Again
