React Native node and native dependency updates

[cranberyxl]

Is there a way to have cocoapods and gradle update in the same PR as a react native node dependency?

[rarkins]

Use packageRules to match the packages you want and then add a groupName

[cranberyxl]

How do I go from groupName to updating the Podfile.lock? Can you point to an example?

[rarkins]

Please create a sample repo to demonstrate what you mean.

[cranberyxl]

I created a basic react-native app here: https://github.com/cranberyxl/RenovateReactNativeExample

I've intentionally added an older version of react-native-video to package.json. As part of that I also run pod install in the ios directory to set the Podfile.lock se this commit: cranberyxl/RenovateReactNativeExample@74456bf

Renovate will eventually open an update to package.json for the node dep. As part of that the Podfile.lock will need to be updated. I've been doing this manually, but if there's a way for renovate to understand to update both npm and cocoapods, that would be great. Additionally, we will start making gradle updates.

[rarkins]

Thanks, I understand better what you mean now. Will answer in a new thread as grouping is not really the solution here.

[rarkins]

Based on the above thread, it seems that your Podfile.lock (and maybe also your Gradle?) depends on the contents of package.json/yarn.lock so needs refreshing if they change. Unfortunately we do not support this concept today - Podfile.lock is only updated if Podfile is updated.

If you self-host, you could make use of postUpgradeTasks to run any custom command after an upgrade, including pod ones.

So then we need debug logs, so add LOG_LEVEL=debug to your env and share the sanitized logs

[jarnove]

For the moment my postUpgradeTasks looks like this:

"postUpgradeTasks": {
    "commands": [
      "sudo gem install bundler",
      "bundle",
      "bundle exec pod install --project-directory=ios",
      "./scripts/maintenance/generate-licenses.sh"
    ],
    "fileFilters": ["ios/Podfile.lock", "android/app/src/main/assets/oss-licenses.json"]
},

Looks good? It complains about the bundle command without sudo but when I add sudo, it complains that I don't need it.

Check your logs, it's the generate-licenses.sh command which fails

[jarnove]

Indeed, that command is also failing, locally it works, but the pods aren't updated either because that command is also failing.

[viceice]

Please read your log files,: Can't find libcurl or curl/curl.h it clearly says that some deps are missing, which need to be installed before running bundler.
