Getting an error when loading component in React Native

I am getting an error when trying to load my component:

Failed to load bundle(http://localhost:8081/index.bundle?platform=ios&dev=true&minify=false) with error:(Unable to resolve module components/Items from /Users/vemundeldegard/AwesomeProject/app/screens/Home.js: Module components/Items does not exist in the Haste module map

This might be related to https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/4968 To resolve try the following: 1. Clear watchman watches: watchman watch-del-all. 2. Delete the node_modules folder: rm -rf node_modules && npm install. 3. Reset Metro Bundler cache: rm -rf /tmp/metro-bundler-cache-* or npm start -- --reset-cache. 4. Remove haste cache: rm -rf /tmp/haste-map-react-native-packager-*. (null))

Trying to load my component in screen which is called screens/home.js, which is then loaded in my app.js.

Added this to the top of the /screens/home.js file:

import Items from 'components/Items';

And calling it in the render like this <Items />

components/items.js looks like this:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
  StyleSheet,
  Text,
  View
} from 'react-native';

const Items = () => {
  return (
    <View>This is now an item</View>
  )
}
export default Items;

Why can't I load a component? Tried doing what the error says.

If the file location is right as you mentioned, import Items from '../components/items'; should be right. But the important thing is after you add new files such as js or image files, you need to restart the node modules.

Try doing import Items from '../components/items', actually your file is named items (without capital i) instead of Items.

Try:

import Items from '../components/Items';
