🔥 [🐛] Cannot find module './plugin/build' for app-check expo config plugin

[moorekevin]

Issue

Hi, I tried using the "@react-native-firebase/app-check" config plugin for Expo, but when I add it to my app.config.json under "plugins" it gives me an error Cannot find module './plugin/build'. I have installed it using npx expo install @react-native-firebase/app-check.

I think the error makes sense since the app-check plugin folder in node_modules does not have a build directory like @react-native-firebase/app for example does. But I have no idea how to make it create the build directory. I have tried reinstalling and uninstalling the app-check module and even deleting all node_modules

I'm using Expo Managed workflow (no iOS or Android directories). It works fine for "@react-native-firebase/app", and "@react-native-firebase/auth" plugins.

I see that there is a PR addressing this here https://github.com/invertase/react-native-firebase/pull/7704

Indeed - sorry for the slightly rough landing on this config plugin, that PR is running through tests now and I'll merge+release if/when it passes
