external library does not work in Android

[hanwencheng]

Hi,

Thanks for create such a convenient library for mobile app developing!

I just import the react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome today, and I tried it in iOS, it works perfectly, after I tried it in Android, it did not work, said the import is nil, the iOS and Android platform share almost the same code, and they have not met such problem before. I followed carefully the import guide, so I guess it is the import question here.

I have write it into .re-natal and the import code is like

       (def icons (r/adapt-react-class (js/require "react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome")))

I also following the steps to import font to Android and iOS, due to the assert failed error hint, I believe I did the right so I come to re-natal here.

Hi Hanwen, common suggestion if something does not work is usually to try building a project with lein prod-build and see if that works. If that works the problem is not in your code but somwhere in re-natal, otherwise it is most probably your code or bug in RN or in the library. If I find some time I will try to repro this. Btw, you also could try asking about this in slack, someone might know something about using this lib

After trying lein prod-build, it does not work either. I feel it is quite strange while it works in iOS but not Android. As you suggested, I will ask it on slack, maybe someone has the same problem.

Hi, @drapanjanas inspired by the issue #5, I figure out that the reason production version did not work is due to my own code (I included the IOS component into Android project). Now they works both with figure-wheel and production version, we could close the issue. Thanks for you suggestions.

Glad you work this out!
