[Image] No suitable image URL loader found for

[Mokto]

Hi guys,

I'm stuck by an issue when updating to react-native@0.12.0-rc : "No suitable image URL loader found for".

This issue seems to be occurring when image uri is not correct (non existing images).

Thanks !

Please let me know if you need anything else.

@Mokto - iOS or Android?

[Mokto]

Sorry, i forgot to mention this.

IOS only !

Thanks.

Could you post a short snippet of your image JSX to show what code can cause this bug? Nonexistent image can mean a couple different things.

[Mokto]

Sure !

<Image
        source={{uri: album.cover}}
/>

You have to know that sometimes album.cover is an empty string. In this case, the message "No suitable image URL loader found for" is occuring. (only in 0.12.0-rc, not in 0.11.0).

I will be more accurate next time.

Thanks for the detail!

Maybe a simple invariant would've been enough for this? @ide

[ide]

I'd prefer a warning since the failure is obvious in a lot of cases (you don't see your image) and breaking the app is harsh for such a recoverable mistake. My current belief is that it should be hard to accidentally break RN at the JS level and hard to intentionally break it at the native level. That will require more work on our part but lead to better UX and DX with this forgiveness.

[grabbou]

Yeah, sorry, meant warning but wrote invariant automatically.

What I did now is rendering a View with the same style whenever an empty uri is encountered, couldn't think of something better.

@javache @ide react-native 0.14.2
No suitable image URL loader found for http://localhost:8081/assets/ReactNative/images/icon_arrow@2x.png?platform=ios&hash=c9eb04f153e31bb617334f96267a0f22. You may need to import the RCTNetworking library in order to load images

my code:
require('../../../images/icon_service_center.png')

I am pretty sure that the image icon_arrow@2x.png is in http://localhost:8081/assets/ReactNative/images/ directory and also have imported RCTNetworking library

I know this is old but for me adding 'http://' to localhost:3000/ image path solved the problem.
