@nrwl/expo:prebuild

Create native iOS and Android project files for building natively.

Options can be configured in project.json when defining the executor, or when invoking it. Read more about how to configure targets and executors here: https://nx.dev/reference/project-configuration#targets.

The prebuild command generates native code before a native app can compile.

project.json:

{
  "name": "mobile",
  //...
  "targets": {
    //...
    "prebuild": {
      "executor": "@nrwl/expo:prebuild",
      "options": {}
    }
    //...
  }
}

nx run mobile:prebuild

Examples

The platform option allows you to specify the platform to generate native code for (e.g. android, ios, all).

      "executor": "@nrwl/expo:prebuild",
      "options": {
        "platform": "android"
      }
