React Native support?

[ggraciano]

Has anyone been able to get this project to run on react native? I created a project with bun create expo and attempted to install arktype, but was unable to run it due to an 'import.meta' is currently unsupported error message.

Similar issues have been reported with valtio and zustand.

I assume its because it is an ESM module:

There is an ongoing thread in the expo repo about importing ESM modules. A potential solution appears to install the following babel package, but I wanted to confirm that this was the case.

If not, are there any plans to support react native?

Not sure what would be involved specifically in supporting react native, but I have no plans to publish an officially-supported CJS variant of the package at this time given the ecosystem as a whole has generally adopted ESM at this point.

That said, the only place I'm using import.meta is here:

export const initialRegistryContents = {
	version: arkUtilVersion,
	filename: import.meta.filename ?? globalThis.__filename ?? "unknown",
	FileConstructor
}

So I can try wrapping it in a try...catch for the next release and if that is the only issue, it will be resolved.

No worries, that's understandable. I was just curious if anyone had success. Appreciate the response!
