[Problem/Question]
Using Sendbird uikit react native for messaging in our app is running into TS issues and console errors due to a very old version of Firebase messaging.
[UIKit Version]
3.9.6 (but I have verified this is still a problem on the latest version)
[Reproduction Steps]
Using @react-native-firebase/messaging
version >22.* the namespace has been deprecated and has migrated to using the modular query system. The Sendbird lib has the current firebase messaging package locked at 14 which is very old and unsupported. Firebase removed the namespace in v23 so we can’t even migrate to that until this is completely fixed.
As an aside, the library locks the RN version at 0.74.3
which is over a year old and everything is moving on to the new arch anyway. That should be updated soon.
[Frequency]
Whenever you open the app.
[Current impact]
Restraining development from advancing to other third party packages that might be needed for our development.
