Crash when using with expo-dev-client ? #166

Closed gkpo closed 2 years ago

gkpo commented 2 years ago

I know this package isn't supposed to work with Expo managed apps. But Expo now has a feature where you can build your app with custom native code (see the documentation: https://docs.expo.dev/workflow/customizing/#developing-apps-with-custom-native-code).

Now my problem is that the app instantly crashes when I call AddCalendarEvent.presentEventCreatingDialog without even leaving a stack trace...

Steps to reproduce:

Install the package in your project: yarn add react-native-add-calendar-event
Build your app for iOS Simulator using eas: eas build --profile local
Install the built app (aka the expo-dev-client) on your iOS simulator
In your code, call AddCalendarEvent.presentEventCreatingDialog
The app crashes here

Any idea why this could be happening ? any help would be very much appreciated!

Fixed this by adding NSCalendarsUsageDescription and NSContactsUsageDescription to app.json: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48157185/info-plist-file-for-react-native-ios-app-using-expo-sdk
