I found this command online that apparently tells you if there is bitcode in your library: otool -l yourlib.a | grep bitcode. I ran this command on the three libraries in the Twilio projects: libcrypto.a, libssl.a, libTwilioClient.a and it does not appear that these libraries have bitcode in them. Since these are precompiled libraries I don't know of a way to have them recompiled

[rogchap]

Those libraries come straight from Twilio, I can't compile them either. Maybe try opening an issue with Twilo?

[EricWithCare]

Ok, I will open one with them and see how they respond. Just curious, how are you building your app? Do you have Bitcode Enabled? Are you limiting to just a single architecture?

[EricWithCare]

Update It appears there was an update on Mar 30 2016 to the Twilio Library that adds Bitcode support. Twilio Client iOS SDK Changes I tried dropping the newest version in. My app is now able to Archive but it still isn't able to be submission to the App Store. It's seen as a Generic Xcode Archive.

Still working on issue.

I was able to resolve the issue. I had to do two things to the RCTTwilio library project in order for it to work.

1. Update the Twilio Client SDK files with newest version
2. In the RCTTwilio project, go to Build Settings -> set Skip Install to 'YES' This allowed me to archive the project and submit it to the App Store.

This is not a long term solution since the changes need to be made in the package itself. If you think this is the right solution, do you think you can update the library?

UPDATE Made a mistake in the instructions, Skip Install should be set to 'YES'

Good investigative work @EricWithCare Can you put together a PR?

[EricWithCare]

Ok, I will try to do that. Just so you know though, the newer version of libTwilioClient.a is larger than 100mb (above the github limit). So I plan on using the git lfs extension. Let me know if this would be a problem.

[rogchap]

Are you able to zip it (tar) to make it under 100MB, we use a prepublish command to unzip when you npm install. Have a look at the package.json scripts

I'm not too familiar with how the npm and package.json works, but I don't see anything related to what you're talking about regarding the prepublish script. What am I missing?

[rogchap]

My bad!! It was for another one of my OOS. But we should add the same concept for this project:

https://github.com/kayla-tech/react-native-card-io/blob/develop/package.json#L11

Basic Idea is to store in git a zip version of the lib, and by adding this script in the package.json it will unzip on install.

I've created the Pull Request with the necessary changes HERE. I hope everything passes. When do you think you will merge the changes and publish a new version to npm. I'm in need of it within the next week.

Thanks
