[Question] Expo compatibility

[fobos531]

Hello - first of all, thanks for the awesome library, I'm using it in multiple projects and it's always worked very reliably for me. I scoured the repo for information on Expo support and noticed that it's suggested to eject from Expo to use this library. While this makes perfect sense, with the advent of Expo dev clients and Expo config plugins, it's been increasingly possible to use previously-incompatible libraries with Expo managed workflow. Is that something you think this project and the ecosystem would benefit from? A similar library - react-native-mmkv - has implemented a way to automate the setup of the library in a way that it makes it compatible with Expo - see mrousavy/react-native-mmkv@d0c6f01

Is that something that would possible here as well?

Thanks in advance!

@fobos531 I will work on this. Seems like this should fix #195

@fobos531 give it a try with an expo project:

install from master:

 https://github.com/ammarahm-ed/react-native-mmkv-storage.git

then run expo prebuild

Thank you for the prompt response! I'm currently a bit busy with real-life stuff but I'll try it as soon as possible

Hello @ammarahm-ed ,

we tried in our project and seems working fine, thank you for your work!
Is there any plan to publish this version to npm?

[ammarahm-ed]

@Wyctus i think the version on npm already published. The master branch is for next release.
