Feature Request: Natively Support MagicLink in React Native v5 SDK

[brien-crean]

While attempting to upgrade our project to 0.74.5 we get a Gradle build error due to an older version of expo-application (5.8.3) which is installed as a dependency of @thirdweb-dev/react-native.

Is there a plan to update expo-application along with other outdated expo dependencies to support react native 0.74 and 0.75?

hey @brien-crean, you have 2 options:

1. use yarn resolutions to override the dependency version
2. upgrade to thirdweb@5 react native docs react migration guide

---

I would HIGHLY recommend 2) but in a pinch / if u urgently need a solution 1) will do the trick

[brien-crean]

@jnsdls thanks for the quick reply! I tried option 1) but it seemed to create more dependency problems as we also use a few other thirdweb dependencies.

We use thirdweb for MetaMask login but we also created an AbstractClientWallet adapter to connect to magic-link hence these extra dependencies below.

Is it still possible to connect to magic link with a custom wallet with v5? We have existing users that have magic link wallets back when thirdweb natively supported magiclink.

"@thirdweb-dev/chains": "0.1.72",
"@thirdweb-dev/react-core": "4.4.8",
"@thirdweb-dev/react-native": "0.7.5",
"@thirdweb-dev/react-native-compat": "0.7.5",
"@thirdweb-dev/wallets": "2.4.10",

@jnsdls can you confirm if it is still possible to connect to magic link with a custom wallet with v5? We have existing users that have magic link wallets back when thirdweb natively supported magiclink. Thanks!

[brien-crean]

@jnsdls can I use thirdweb@5 along with the account interface to login with a custom wallet such as magic link as per this comment?

Any help is much appreciated as this is blocking us from upgrading react native.

Hey @brien-crean, sorry for the delay on this issue. We don't natively support MagicLink in v5, but we'd like to soon. I'll keep you updated as this feature gets built.
