Element type is invalid: expected a string

[pdavid0]

import {AutoGrowInputText} from "react-native-auto-grow-textinput";

<AutoGrowInputText
        placeholder="placeholder"
        maxHeight={120}
    />

ExceptionsManager.js:63 
Element type is invalid: expected a string (for built-in components) 
or a class/function (for composite components) but got: undefined.
Check the render method.

R : 0.41.2
RN : 15.5.4

@pdavid0 Tnx for issue!

Same thing here.

Just importing it and using <AutoGrowInputText placeholder='Some text here' />.

[rusfearuth]

@joshuapinter Could you show part of code?
How did you import library?

if you use import AutoGrowTextInput from 'react-native-auto-grow-textinput'; , it won't work.

[joshuapinter]

Gotcha! Because it's not the default, you have to put curly braces around it, like:

import {AutoGrowTextInput} from 'react-native-auto-grow-textinput';

I'll try that right now and report back.

[joshuapinter]

@rusfearuth Nope, same problem.

[marlti7]

i have the same problem

[rusfearuth]

@joshuapinter could you share some code?

[rusfearuth]

Guys, Could you write RN versions? I've checked 1.1.2 on RN 0.43.x. It's work fine.

[joshuapinter]

@rusfearuth Not much code to share. It's about as basic as it gets.

import { AutoGrowInputText } from 'react-native-auto-grow-textinput';

// In my render#return()
<AutoGrowInputText />

Versions

"react-native-auto-grow-textinput": "1.1.2"
"react-native": "0.42.3"

[rusfearuth]

@joshuapinter Hm.. It's really strange. I can't repeat your case. Do you use flow for checking your code?

[joshuapinter]

@rusfearuth No, but it's isolated to just including <AutoGrowInputText />. I know how difficult it is dealing with issues that you can't reproduce so when I find more time I'll dig in deeper and try and find the root cause myself.

Let's leave this Issue open for now as a reminder, though.

Some here, try both import AutoGrowInputText from 'react-native-auto-grow-textinput'; and import {AutoGrowInputText} from 'react-native-auto-grow-textinput'; but none works
