Element Type Is Invalid
React Native error: Element type is invalid: expected a string or a class/function but got: object
I received an error message from React Native and I tried to fix it. The message said, “There is an issue on the main page, so please find out what it is.” However, I found the issue from the Expo setting code.
If you want to import SVG in React Native, you need to add this code to Expo code metro.config.js:
const { getDefaultConfig } = require("expo/metro-config");
module.exports = (() => {
const config = getDefaultConfig(__dirname);
const { transformer, resolver } = config;
config.transformer = {
...transformer,
babelTransformerPath: require.resolve("react-native-svg-transformer"),
};
config.resolver = {
...resolver,
assetExts: resolver.assetExts.filter((ext) => ext !== "svg"),
sourceExts: [...resolver.sourceExts, "svg"],
};
return config;
})();
