React Native Error: The component for route 'Home' must be a React component

I have a big problem with my code at the moment, and I know, there is a lot of request with the same issue as mine. I tried a lot of the solutions, but NOTHING helped.
Maybe someone can help me :)
I get the issue in the Title mentionend:
Error: The component for route 'Home' must be a React component. For
example:
import MyScreen from './MyScreen'; ... Home: MyScreen, }
You can also use a navigator:
import MyNavigator from './MyNavigator'; ... Home: MyNavigator, }
This is my code in the specified files:
App.js
import React from 'react'; import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native'; import { createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation'; import { createStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-stack';
import Home from './src/Home'; import Profile from './src/Profile';
const Navigator = createStackNavigator({ Home: { screen: Home }, Profile: { screen: Profile }, }, { initialRouteName: 'Home', });
const App = createAppContainer(Navigator);
export default App;
Home.js
import React from 'react'; import { StyleSheet, View, Button } from 'react-native';
export default class Home extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = {
title: 'Home', };
render() {
const { navigate } = this.props.navigation;
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Button
title="Go to profile screen"
onPress={() => navigate(
'Profile', { name: 'Jane' }
)}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({ container: { flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' } });
Profile.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
export default class Profile extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = ({ navigation }) => {
return {
title: navigation.getParam('name'),
};
};
render() {
const { navigate, state } = this.props.navigation;
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>Hello {state.params.name}</Text>
<Button
title="Go to home screen"
onPress={() => navigate('Home')}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center'
}
});

Please make sure that you are having the following structure in your project:
App.js in your project folder. Home.js and Profile.js in the src folder.
App.js (in ./ folder)
import React from 'react';
import { View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import { createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import { createStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-stack';
import Home from './src/Home';
import Profile from './src/Profile';
const Navigator = createStackNavigator({ Home: { screen: Home }, Profile: { screen: Profile }, }, { initialRouteName: 'Home', });
const App = createAppContainer(Navigator);
export default App;
Home.js (in ./src folder)
import React from 'react'; import { StyleSheet, View, Button } from 'react-native';
export default class Home extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = {
title: 'Home', };
render() {
const { navigate } = this.props.navigation;
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Button
title="Go to profile screen"
onPress={() => navigate(
'Profile', { name: 'Jane' }
)}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({ container: { flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' } });
Profile.js (in ./src folder)
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, View, Text, Button } from 'react-native';
export default class Profile extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = ({ navigation }) => {
return {
title: navigation.getParam('name'),
};
};
render() {
const { navigate, state } = this.props.navigation;
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>Hello {state.params.name}</Text>
<Button
title="Go to home screen"
onPress={() => navigate('Home')}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center'
}
});
If you place all the files correctly, it will WORK.

React Native "TypeError: Object(...) is not a function" Error for react navigation stack

I'm having an issue with my react-navigation-stack, I believe it could be a problem with dependencies, but I'm not sure if that's it. I am simply trying to have some text redirect to another page. If there is code that is irrelevant to the issue, such as a button, I apologize as I am trying to learn react native. The problem is being pointed at homeStack.js at the first import, "import { createStackNavigator } from '#react-navigation/stack';" , but previously I just used react-navigation-stack there, which I believe was a part of old dependencies, but it gave me a module not found error at first, which changed to what I have now when I put #react-navigation/stack instead. I was learning from a video tutorial, but the code from the tutorial was not compiling. I redownloaded react navigation multiple times and have tried some thing that did not work. I will post my code below and would really appreciate help and input as to what can help my problem. Thanks you!

The error says what's wrong -
Object(...) is not a function
createStackNavigator expects a function and you are passing an object to it as a parameter. According to docs
Your code should look like -
import { createStackNavigator } from '#react-navigation/stack';
//import { createAppContainer } from '#react-navigation/native';
//import { createStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-stack';
import { createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import Home from '../screens/home';
import ReviewDetails from '../screens/reviewDetails';
const Stack = createStackNavigator();
function MyStack() {
return (
<Stack.Navigator>
<Stack.Screen name="Home" component={Home} />
<Stack.Screen name="ReviewDetails" component={ReviewDetails} />
</Stack.Navigator>
);
}
export default MyStack; //you need to render this
Now in your root file, It should be something like this (excluding your additional code) -
import { createStackNavigator } from '#react-navigation/stack';
import MyStack from "yourPath";
export default function App() {
return (
<NavigationContainer>
<MyStack />
</NavigationContainer>
);
}

What is the reason for this error in React Native?

I am new to react native and I have been trying to create a header and pull out menu using createDrawerNavigator.
When running my code I get the following error.
Error: The component for route 'Home' must be a React component. For example:
import MyScreen from './MyScreen';
Home: MyScreen,
}
You can also use a navigator:
import MyNavigator from './MyNavigator';
Home: MyNavigator,
}
Here is my app.js file:
import React from 'react';
import { Button, View, Text } from 'react-native';
import { createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import MyDrawerNavigator from './components/MyDrawerNavigator';
const MyApp = createAppContainer(MyDrawerNavigator);
export default class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return <MyApp />;
}
}
My HomeScreen.js file
import React from 'react';
import { Text, Button } from 'react-native';
import LogoTitle from './LogoTitle';
class MyHomeScreen extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = ({ navigation }) => {
return {
headerTitle: <LogoTitle />,
headerLeft: (
<Button
onPress={() => this.props.navigation.navigate('DrawerToggle')}
title={'Menu'}
/>
),
};
};
render() {
return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
<Text>Home Screen</Text>
</View>
);
}
}
export default MyHomeScreen;
My MyDrawerNavigator.js file
import React from 'react';
import { Button, Platform, Image, View, Text } from 'react-native';
import { createDrawerNavigator } from 'react-navigation-drawer';
import MyHomeScreen from './HomeScreen';
import DetailsScreen from './DetailScreen';
const MyDrawerNavigator = createDrawerNavigator(
{
Home: MyHomeScreen,
Details: DetailsScreen,
}, {
drawerPosition: 'right',
contentOptions: {
activeTintColor: '#000',
},
});
export default MyDrawerNavigator

The are 2 problems here:
1) You are not exporting your MyDrawerNavigator just add:
export default MyDrawerNavigator
to your MyDrawerNavigator.js file
2) You are not exporting your HomeScreen. You'll have to create a separate file for it, like you did with DetailsScreen.
The HomeScreen.js file would look like:
class MyHomeScreen extends React.Component {
static navigationOptions = ({ navigation }) => {
return {
headerTitle: <LogoTitle />,
headerLeft: (
<Button
onPress={() => this.props.navigation.navigate('DrawerToggle')}
title={'Menu'}
/>
),
};
};
render() {
return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
<Text>Home Screen</Text>
</View>
);
}
}
You NEED to add a render inside of your screens

Issue with Navigation in React Native - Organizing properly

Am trying to start playing with React Native now. And I come from web development field.
Since start, am trying to organize my folder structure so that it would be easy for me to understand and make modifications later.
Right now the folder structure is as follows:
/screens
HomeScreen.js
ProfileScreen.js
/navigation
MainNavigation.js
App.js
... etc
Am using Expo CLI as this is my first time working on React Native.
/navigation/MainNavigation.js
import React from 'react';
import { createStackNavigator, createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import HomeScreen from '../screens/HomeScreen';
import ProfileScreen from '../screens/ProfileScreen';
const RootStack = createStackNavigator(
{
Home: HomeScreen,
Profile: ProfileScreen,
},
{
initialRouteName: 'Home',
}
);
const AppContainer = createAppContainer(RootStack);
export default class Navigation extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<AppContainer />
);
}
}
/screens/HomeScreen.js
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View, Button, TouchableOpacity } from 'react-native';
export default function HomeScreen() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<TouchableOpacity style={styles.blue_btn} onPress={() => this.props.navigation.navigate('Profile')}>
<Text style={styles.white_text}>Profile</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
<Text>Open up App.js to start working on your app!</Text>
</View>
);
}
HomeScreen.navigationOptions = {
header: null,
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#fff',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
},
blue_btn: {
backgroundColor: '#13baa8',
padding: 10,
},
white_text: {
color: 'white',
}
});
/screens/ProfileScreen.js
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View, Button } from 'react-native';
export default function ProfileScreen() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>Open up App.js to start working on your app!</Text>
</View>
);
}
ProfileScreen.navigationOptions = {
title: 'Profile',
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#fff',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
},
});
App.js
import React from 'react';
import Navigation from './navigation/MainNavigation';
export default class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<Navigation />
);
}
}
When I click on the Profile button in the HOME Screen, it is showing this message:
undefined is not an object(evaluating '_this.props.navigation')
Thank you

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { createStackNavigator, createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import ScreenOne from './ScreenOne';
import ScreenTwo from './ScreenTwo';
const NavStack = createStackNavigator({
ScreenOne: {
screen: ScreenOne,
},
ScreenTwo: {
screen: ScreenTwo,
},
});
const App = createAppContainer(NavStack);
export default App;

React native: How to change state of root component from child component wihin react-navigaion compoent DrawerNavigator

I have recently started out with React native and stuck with this.
I wanted to make a login system so I used conditional rendering to render Login Screen and App's Main screen separately based on LoggedInStatus State.
root component:
import React, {Component} from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Platform, Image, Text, View, ActivityIndicator, AsyncStorage } from 'react-native';
import firebase from 'react-native-firebase'; import SQLite from 'react-native-sqlite-storage'; import Login from './src/screens/Login'; import Home from './src/screens/Home'; import SplashScreen from 'react-native-smart-splash-screen' var db = SQLite.openDatabase({name: 'test.db', createFromLocation:'~sqlite.db'})
export default class App extends Component { constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
loggedInStatus: false}; };
componentWillMount(){
//SplashScreen.close(SplashScreen.animationType.scale, 850, 500)
SplashScreen.close({
animationType: SplashScreen.animationType.fade,
duration: 450,
delay: 500,
})
db.transaction((tx) => {
tx.executeSql('SELECT * FROM users', [], (tx, results) => {
console.log("Query completed");
var len = results.rows.length;
console.log(len);
if (len > 0) {
console.log("User is Logged in");
this.setState({ loggedInStatus: true });
}
else{
console.log("User is Logged out");
this.setState({ loggedInStatus: false });
}
});
}); };
render() {
if (this.state.loggedInStatus === true) {
return <Home logoutProp={{ LoggedOut: () => this.setState({ loggedInStatus: false }) }}/>
}
else if (this.state.loggedInStatus === false){
return <Login screenProps={{ isLoggedIn: () => this.setState({ loggedInStatus: true }) }}/>
}
return (
<View>
<Text>This is SpashScreen</Text>
</View>
); } }
Now, If user is logged in then Home component is rendered, Home component is a Drawer navigator with Main screen and Drawer screen:
Home Component:
import React from 'react';
import {
DrawerNavigator,
StackNavigator,
TabNavigator
} from 'react-navigation';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';
import Main from '../src/tabs/Main';
// import Settings from './src/tabs/Settings';
// import Profile from './src/screens/Profile';
import Modal from '../src/screens/Modal';
import Drawer from '../src/components/Drawer';
export default DrawerNavigator({
Home: {
screen: Main,
}
},{
contentComponent: props => <Drawer {...props} />
});
My Drawer Component has a logout button, I need to call logoutProp of the root component onclick of logout button of the Drawer component, how can I achieve this?
Drawer Component:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
Button,
StyleSheet,
Text,
View
} from 'react-native';
import SQLite from 'react-native-sqlite-storage';
var db = SQLite.openDatabase({name: 'test.db', createFromLocation:'~sqlite.db'})
export default class Drawer extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.header}>
</View>
<View style={styles.body}>
<Button
title="Log Out"
onPress={this.logout}
/>
</View>
</View>
);
}
logout(){
//Need some method to call logoutProp of root component
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#F5F5F5',
},
header: {
flex:1,
backgroundColor: '#1d337d'
},
body: {
flex:3,
}
});
Any help will be appreciated, Thanks :)
