Xcode 14.3 - Error: Unable to resolve module ./Libraries/Components/DatePicker/DatePickerIOS

[mjmasn]

This issue is now fixed, for more details check out this comment.

Description

Since upgrading to Xcode 14.3 and working around the other new issues i.e. the codegen ios target version issue, there is still a further issue with metro. Getting a lot of these type of errors. It seems to be every time metro logs a log line from iOS (not Android), it then logs the below message as well (full paths redacted).

This seems to cause a memory leak as well, with the metro node process eventually crashing when > 4GB RAM is used.

The error message is interesting for many reasons.

1. Firstly it seems to be trying to resolve a flow type import.
2. Secondly the path does exist, but metro is not checking the platform-specific path i.e. DatePickerIOS.ios.js.
3. Thirdly we don't even use DatePickerIOS in the app.

NOTE that this is not the codegen ios target version issue, I've already worked around that using the patch which has been released as 0.70.8

Newer Version of React Native is Available!

ℹ️

You are on a supported minor version, but it looks like there's a newer patch available. Please upgrade to the highest patch for your minor or latest and verify if the issue persists (alternatively, create a new project and repro the issue in it).

Started going down that rabbit hole too

Xcode v14.3
React Native 0.70.6
Build Target iOS 14.0

Architecture: Apple Silicon (M1 Max)

Had to manually change the iOS Deployment Target of Pods > React-Codegen to iOS 12.4 or otherwise it won't build.

Steps to reproduce:

• Build and run with the aforementioned configuration.
• Navigate around your app.
• Metro eventually produces a memory leak on node (I'm using nvm)
