'RCTEventEmitter.h' file not found

[FrenchBully]

Getting this error on build
'RCTEventEmitter.h' file not found

I've tried replacing with:
'React/RCTEventEmitter.h'

Does 'React/RCTEventEmitter.h' work for you then? In terms of the import paths, it all depends on the RN version that you're running.

[FrenchBully]

I'm running RN 0.49.3, and React/RCTEventEmitter.h doesn't work

[yinghang]

Try <React/RCTEventEmitter.h>. Also, did you set up header search paths the right way?

[FrenchBully]

thanks, yea I tried <React/RCTEventEmitter.h> with no luck. Header Search Path set has $(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native-background-timer/ios non-recursive

[yinghang]

You'd prob want something like $(SRCROOT)/../node_modules/react-native/ too since RCTEventEmitter.h would live inside the react-native folder. And try setting it to a recursive search.

[FrenchBully]

no luck still.

[FrenchBully]

has anyone been able to get this working?

Try to add below dependency to your Podfile (to the top of your target section - before pod 'react-native-background-timer' line):

pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [
    'BatchedBridge', # Required For React Native 0.45.0+
    'Core',
    # Add any other subspecs you want to use in your project
]

Then run pod install and see if it works now.

Hi guys, this solution works!

Add lines to ios/Podfile

pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native'
pod 'yoga', :path => '../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga'
pod 'react-native-background-timer', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-background-timer'
...

"react-native": "0.51.0",
"react-native-background-timer": "^2.0.0",

#import <React/RCTBridgeModule.h>
