Issue with PIXI filters evaluating undefined.__filters

[ianmcgregor]

On iOS my app is blowing up on this line in the PIXI filters package:

Object.assign(PIXI.filters, this.__filters);

The author is obviously expecting this to resolve to window or global, but in React Native it appears to be undefined.

Commenting put the lines that import pixi-filters fixes the issue:

import * as filters from 'pixi-filters';
PIXI.filters = { ...(PIXI.filters || {}), ...filters };

Anyone know a workaround for 'this'?

I don't quite understand the problem, is your app crashing at this:

expo-pixi/lib/Pixi.js

Line 8 in e95dba3

PIXI.filters = { ...(PIXI.filters || {}), ...filters };

?

Hi @EvanBacon it's actually in the filters package itself, which is imported as a bundle (pixi-filters.cjs.js).

In there it creates a global variable '__filters' and tries to assign PIXI.filters to it.

I worked around it by importing Expo.GLView and PIXI separately (using what I learned from this repo - thanks!)

I will set up a new project with a bare bones crna + expo-pixi to see if it still breaks, in case it was something else I was doing that caused this.
