createParam seems to be bundling Next.js in native app

Hello!

Thank you for the work you put in around the React Native community! Really an inspiration.

I'm maintaining this template: https://github.com/criszz77/luna

What I'm trying to achieve is a React Native + Next.js in one app, no monorepo. In my opinion the monorepo adds a lot of complexity and a number of fairly new React Native developers stumble across this while working with Solito for their first time.

I'm playing around with processModuleFilter from Metro bundler which helps us discard specific modules from the output. Of course, I'm trying to discard Next.js from native and here are the results:

Either clone 🌘 Luna or install a new app with

npx react-native init MyAppName --template @criszz77/luna

Copy this serializer option in your metro.config.js:

module.exports = {
transformer: {
...
},
serializer: {
processModuleFilter: module => {
  console.log('module', module);
  return !module.path.includes('/node_modules/next/');
},
},
};

Run yarn start && yarn ios
In the console.logs, not only you will see that Next.js seems to be bundled in the Native app, but also the app will crash.

EDIT:

Or if you try to use Solito in a bare react native app:

nandorojo / solito
