Description

When I call await Clipboard.getString() the promise will not be resolved (ever)

This happens if your metro configuration is:

/**
 * Metro configuration for React Native
 * https://github.com/facebook/react-native
 *
 * @format
 */

module.exports = {
  transformer: {
    getTransformOptions: async () => ({
      transform: {
        experimentalImportSupport: false,
        inlineRequires: true,
      },
    }),
  },
};

If you flip inlineRequires to false, then promise in this library starts working again. Because this is issue only with this package I believe there is some conflict, but for now I do not have deeper knowledge why is that, just reporting it here as it may help someone...

What is interesting though that this repository has the flag turned to true, I believe it will be issue just with "published / build" package.

There is similar issue opened in react-native repo: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/31558

Reproducible Demo

inlineRequires: true works fine for me. I'm using RN 0.66.3 and clipboard 1.9.0

module.exports = {
  transformer: {
    getTransformOptions: async () => ({
      transform: {
        experimentalImportSupport: false,
        inlineRequires: true,
      },
    }),
  },
};

I've been using @react-native-clipboard/clipboard and it's been working great but suddenly I notice today that getString() is now returning empty. And I have not changed this code. Anyone know what is going on?

I had the same problem, I solved it by changing inlineRequires: true to inlineRequires: false
