react-native-copy-asset v3.0.2

react-native-copy-asset

Link and unlink assets to your react-native project with ease!

Advantages

• react-native link only supports font files, this tool supports all assets.
• Unlinking is automatic when you delete an asset, with react-native link, you need to unlink the files manually.
• Proper link (and unlink) for mp3 (to use with react-native-sound) and ttf files.

Check out this starter-kit to use your assets with even more simplicity.

Usage

• Install

  npm install -g react-native-copy-asset
  # or yarn
  yarn global add react-native-copy-asset

• Add assets to your react-native.config.js as you would with react-native link

  ...
   "assets": [
      "./src/font",
      "./src/mp3"
    ]

• Run the command and linking + unlinking is automatic!

  react-native-copy-asset

Explanation

With react-native link you have to unlink the files manually, which is hard work.
Instead this library writes link-assets-manifest.json to the root of android and ios folders to keep track of the files which it added, for later removing it for you if missing from your assets!

Parameters

• -p, --path - path to project, defaults to cwd.
• -a, --assets - assets paths, for example react-native-copy-asset -a ./src/font ./src/mp3.
• -ios-a, --ios-assets - ios assets paths, will disable android linking
• -android-a, --android-assets - android assets paths, will disable ios linking.
• -n-u, --no-unlink - Not to unlink assets which not longer exists, not recommanded.
