errcode

function requireImpl(id) {
  if (global.ErrorUtils && !inGuard) {
    inGuard = true;
    var returnValue;
    try {
      returnValue = requireImpl.apply(this, arguments);
    } catch (e) {
      global.ErrorUtils.reportFatalError(e);
    }
    inGuard = false;
    return returnValue;
  }

  var mod = modules[id];
  if (!mod) {
    var msg = 'Requiring unknown module "' + id + '"';
    if (__DEV__) {
      msg += '. If you are sure the module is there, try restarting the packager or running "npm install".';
    }
    throw new Error(msg);
  }

var pic = require(item) || require("../../assets/list.png");

You cannot use variables in require. All requires must be statically analyzable. That means you always have to write require('/path/to/file').

@satya164 my assets images in array ,I want to use the array elements require

[satya164]

@ibeeger have the requires in an array instead. e.g. instead of [ 'img1', 'img2' ], you can have [ require('img1'), require ('img2') ]

@satya164 thank you

any other solution if i want require regular image based on some variable ? it costs much time if we have too many image.

[satya164]

@MrPluto Packager needs to be able to statically analyze the images to be able to bundle them into the app automatically. As an alternative, you can bundle the images in your app manually and the use <Image source={{ uri: 'file:///path/to/image' }} /> where variables will work.

I found this answer useful

const images = {
    profile: {
        profile: require('./profile/profile.png'),
        comments: require('./profile/comments.png'),
    },
    image1: require('./image1.jpg'),
    image2: require('./image2.jpg'),
};

export default images;

import Images from './img/index';

render() {
    <Image source={Images.profile.comments} />
}
