Troubleshooting
Unexpected behavior
If you have unexpected behavior, please create a clean project with the latest versions of react-native and react-native-svg
bashreact-native init CleanProject cd CleanProject/ yarn add react-native-svg cd ios && pod install && cd ..
Make a reproduction of the problem in App.js
bashreact-native run-ios react-native run-android
Adding Windows support
npx react-native-windows-init --overwritecd windows\<AppName>- Open
<AppName>.vcxproj
RN 0.68+
- Scroll to the bottom until you find:
xml
<ItemGroup> <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Windows.CppWinRT" Version="X.X.XXXXXX.X" /> </ItemGroup> - Add the following to that
<ItemGroup>xml<PackageReference Include="Win2D.uwp" Version="1.26.0" />
Pre RN 0.68
-
Scroll to the bottom until you find:
xml<ImportGroup Label="ExtensionTargets"> -
Add the following to that
<ImportGroup>xml<Import Project="$(SolutionDir)\packages\Win2D.uwp.1.26.0\build\native\Win2D.uwp.targets" Condition="Exists('$(SolutionDir)\packages\Win2D.uwp.1.26.0\build\native\Win2D.uwp.targets')" />
Opening issues
Verify that it is still an issue with the latest version as specified in the previous step. If so, open a new issue, include the entire App.js file, specify what platforms you've tested, and the results of running this command:
bashreact-native info
If you suspect that you've found a spec conformance bug, then you can test using your component in a react-native-web project by forking this codesandbox, to see how different browsers render the same content: https://codesandbox.io/s/pypn6mn3y7 If any evergreen browser with significant userbase or other svg user agent renders some svg content better, or supports more of the svg and related specs, please open an issue asap.
