TypeError: _FontAwesome.default.getImageSource is not a function. #1452

Open mmg-mike opened 2 years ago

Environment

macOS Monterey Version 12.4 react-native: 0.68.2 react-native-vector-icons: ^9.2.0 expo: ~45.0.0

Issue

When trying to use getImageSource I get the following error:

TypeError: _FontAwesome.default.getImageSource is not a function. (In '_FontAwesome.default.getImageSource('circle', 15, '#fff')', '_FontAwesome.default.getImageSource' is undefined)

Code

import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome';

const [icon, setIcon] = useState();

useEffect(() => {
    Icon.getImageSource('circle', 15, '#fff').then(setIcon)
}, []);

Notes

I'm not sure if using functional components instead of classes could be the issue, but I'm not sure why that would matter.

Also, here's the link to the docs showing it's usage: https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons#usage-as-png-imagesource-object
