Removes tar. It's no longer used after updating ancestor dependencies tar, fsevents and react-native-scripts. These dependencies need to be updated together.

Removes tar

Updates fsevents from 1.2.4 to 1.2.13

Release notes

Sourced from fsevents's releases.

Release v1.2.13

Only build on Mac-OSX

Release v1.2.11

Removing node-pre-gyp so that building fsevents becomes easier and enabled without the download of binaries.

The credentials to the AWS store have been lost. Releasing to AWS is both insecure and no longer possible due to the lost credentials.

Intermediate Release

Updates react-native-scripts from 1.14.0 to 2.0.1

Changelog

Sourced from react-native-scripts's changelog.

2.0.1 - 2018-09-21

This release merges Create React Native App with Expo CLI.

  • Expo CLI is a tool based on CRNA, made by the same team
  • It has all the same features, plus some additional benefits
  • Like CRNA, Expo CLI does not require an Expo user account
  • The create-react-native-app command will continue to work

The separate react-native-scripts package is now deprecated: new projects created with create-react-native-app will use Expo CLI instead of react-native-scripts. In addition to everything provided by CRNA, Expo CLI includes these extras:

  • Web-based user interface: in addition to the CLI, there's a GUI where you can view logs, launch the app on your devices or simulators, and publish updates.
  • Standalone app builds: you can build IPA and APK packages for deploying to App Store and Play Store without using Xcode or Android Studio.
  • Publishing: you can push updates to your deployed apps and optionally publish your app to Expo.io.
  • Tunnel: your physical device doesn’t need to be in the same wi-fi as your computer to be able to develop using it.
  • Optional user accounts: logging in allows listing all your projects in development in the Expo app without having to scan any QR codes and enables additional features like standalone builds. However, just like CRNA, Expo CLI can also be used without a user account.

Why are we bringing these two tools together?

  • Just one tool to learn: previously developers would start with CRNA and then switch to exp or XDE for additional features like standalone builds. Expo CLI is as easy to get started with as CRNA, but also supports everything previously offered by these separate tools.
  • Less confusing options: CRNA apps have always been loaded using the Expo app and able to use the Expo APIs in addition to the core React Native APIs. Users are sometimes confused about the differences between plain React Native, CRNA and Expo apps created with tools like exp or XDE. Installing the expo-cli package will make it clearer the additional functionality is provided by Expo.
  • Developer experience: Expo CLI is ahead of CRNA in terms of features and developer experience, and we’re continuously improving it.
  • Maintenance: having these two projects as separate codebases requires more maintenance and CRNA has previously falled behind because of this. A single codebase helps us keep it up to date and fix issues as fast as possible.
