Expo SDK 51 support

Description

In a project using Expo SDK 51, the iOS app cannot be built (locally at least, I haven't tried on the eas servers). A flipper-related error is shown, but I believe that the actual problem is the version of @expo/config-plugins required by expo-widgets. Expo-doctor was complaining about @expo/config-plugins, so I overrode its version in package.json, but the error remains anyway.

Most likely, the solution is to update the @expo/config-plugins version in order to support SDK 51.

Hi, did you try this suggestion with the example project?

[ythomop]

No, I haven't.

I've also run into this (on expo 51). I think that the issue is here https://github.com/gitn00b1337/expo-widgets/blob/main/plugin/src/ios/withPodfile.ts#L32-L33 -- this introduces flipper_config to the generated ios/Podfile and afaik flipper is not supported in expo 51.

Manually commenting it out of the generated Podfile results in a clean prebuild.

Does the build also produce widgets? I'll try take a look tonight but it would be great to hear whether that just causes other issues or not

I meant that I got to a clean npx expo prebuild

I didn't get to a clean build after all. I'm currently stuck with

> npx expo run:ios

⚠️  Something went wrong running `pod install` in the `ios` directory.
Command `pod install` failed.
└─ Cause: An error occurred while processing the post-install hook of the Podfile.

I've taken a look today and updated the example project with the latest expo version. The data transfer is not working yet for some reason I need to figure out, but the widget renders and you can design them and get data via api requests. I'll continue figuring out what's broken for expo51 when I can, hopefully at the weekend. For now, there's a beta release - npm i @bittingz/expo-widgets@beta

Anyone that wants to help, see branch expo-51. Cheers

V2 is now available with full support for expo 51. :)
