react-native-copy-asset


Link and unlink assets to your react-native project with ease!

Advantages

- react-native link only supports font files, this tool supports all assets.
- Unlinking is automatic when you delete an asset, with react-native link, you need to unlink the files manually.
- Proper link (and unlink) for mp3 (to use with react-native-sound) and ttf files.

Usage

- Install
``bash
npm install -g react-native-copy-asset
# or yarn
yarn global add react-native-copy-asset
`
- Add assets to your react-native.config.js as you would with react-native link
`json
...
"assets": [
"./src/font",
"./src/mp3"
]
`
- Run the command and linking + unlinking is automatic!
`bash
react-native-copy-asset
`

Explanation

With react-native link you have to unlink the files manually, which is hard work.
Instead this library writes link-assets-manifest.json to the root of android and ios folders to keep track of the files which it added, for later removing it for you if missing from your assets!
