Command line tools that ship with react-native in form of the @react-native-community/cli package.
It exposes

This monorepository contains tools and helpers for React Native projects in form of a Command Line Tool (or CLI). This CLI is used directly by the react-native package and is not intended for use directly. We update it independently of React Native itself.
Run the following command in your terminal prompt:
npx react-native init MyAppOnce you're inside an existing project, a local react-native binary will be available for you to use. Feel free to use Yarn to call it directly.
Example running start command in terminal:
yarn react-native start
# or:
npx react-native startYou can also add npm scripts to call it with whichever package manager you use:
{
"scripts": {
"start": "react-native start"
}
}React Native CLI is a dependency of react-native, which makes it a transitive dependency of your project. It happens that you may be locked on a version without fixes for bugs that may affect you. Here's how to get it sorted:
-
If you use lock files (
yarn.lockorpackage-lock.json) - find all the@react-native-community/cliprefixed entries, remove them, runyarn install/npm installonce again. Here's an example usingyarn.lock. Notice how whole@react-native-community/clientries are removed. Make sure to delete all of them:diff --git a/yarn.lock b/yarn.lock index 073309f..0bb8c4b 100644 --- a/yarn.lock +++ b/yarn.lock @@ -843,26 +843,6 @@ "@types/istanbul-reports" "^1.1.1" "@types/yargs" "^13.0.0" -"@react-native-community/cli-debugger-ui@^3.0.0": - version "3.0.0" - resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/@react-native-community/cli-debugger-ui/-/cli-debugger-ui-3.0.0.tgz#d01d08d1e5ddc1633d82c7d84d48fff07bd39416" - integrity sha512-m3X+iWLsK/H7/b7PpbNO33eQayR/+M26la4ZbYe1KRke5Umg4PIWsvg21O8Tw4uJcY8LA5hsP+rBi/syBkBf0g== - dependencies: - serve-static "^1.13.1" - -"@react-native-community/cli-platform-android@^3.0.0": - version "3.1.2" - resolved "https://registry.yarnpkg.com/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/-/cli-platform-android-3.1.2.tgz#313644fba81b5d673cc803009e1eddc930b9618c" - integrity sha512-H30a00LLigsTh4eO0kc2YtaIkOJKrValWOU6n2VES3ZGS31qDx9GhZIwMCMcdzcSnypAyMAfauVatEmBSQZU7Q== - dependencies: - "@react-native-community/cli-tools" "^3.0.0" - chalk "^2.4.2"

If you don't use lock files – remove
node_modulesand runyarn install/npm installagain. -
Run
yarn list --pattern @react-native-community/cliornpm list @react-native-community/cliand verify you're on the latest version.
After performing these steps you should be on the latest CLI version. Feel free to do it once in a while, because we release often.
