how to upgrade react-native-cli?

Check current react native CLI version

react-native -v
react-native-cli: 1.0.0
react-native: 0.61.5

I use the following commands to upgrade global react-native-cli verison

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli
npm install -g react-native-cli

but now check current react native cli version, it's still v1.0.0

react-native -v
react-native-cli: 1.0.0
react-native: 0.61.5

Since you are using react-native 0.61.5 you need to install react-native-cli version 3.0.0 or above according to Compatibility of React Native CLI.

If you have already installed a version of react-native CLI, uninstall it using

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

Then try to install react-native CLI as below,

npm install [email protected]

Hope this will help you.

Note: This may not work with react-native-cli version 4.0.0 or above.

🍺 The Homebrew way🍺

Remove globally first if needed

npm uninstall -g react-native-cli

or

yarn remove react-native-cli

Install brew

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Install it with brew

brew install react-native-cli

Upgrade in future

brew upgrade react-native-cli
