Migrating from v4 to v6
Migrating from v4 to v6
If you are migrating to
rive-react-native note the following changes below. Since there were not any minor/patch versions released on v5, we're consolidating the migration guidance from v4 to v5 and v5 to v6, which we recommend migrating to stay up-to-date.No breaking API changes!
We updated the
react-native and react devDependencies to support the following versions:- React:
18.2.0 - React Native:
0.72.3
Out of an abundance of caution, we've bumped a major version on
rive-react-native to account for any discrepancies that arise from going from v0.66.4 -> v0.72.3.We also bumped the rive-android runtime dependency from
v5.1.5 to v8.1.0 to support the Rive follow-path feature and Text feature. A slight bundle size increase may be seen as it introduces a Text Engine dependency.If you run into issues building, you may try setting a higher NDK version.
The
rive-android NDK version defines the ndkVersion in build.gradle at "25.1.8937393"You may want to consult the
rive-react-native example app included in the repository to see an example configuration to follow if you run into issues.We also bumped the rive-ios runtime dependency from
v4.0.5 to v5.0.1 to support the Text feature. A slight bundle size increase may be seen as it introduces a Text Engine dependency.Starting in
v6.0.0, rive-react-native has support for not only displaying Rive graphics that include Rive Text, but the ability to set text dynamically via the Rive ref.Last modified 3mo ago
