Initialise a new bridge from a module

[jacobp100]

I'm trying to get a WebWorker package to work under the new arch. It used to work by initialising a new bridge, then transferring messages between.

Assuming this is still an okay approach, how do I get the module registry working?

https://github.com/jacobp100/react-native-webworker/blob/master/ios/RCTWebWorkerModule.m#L69-L72

I'm assuming I need the #if RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED stuff from AppDelegate.m. Without it, I get a lot of errors about modules not being found.

However, when I do add it, I get the message 'React/RCTCxxBridgeDelegate.h' file not found

Any pointers?

Hi @jacobp100!
We recently shared this repo with the community.

Mir contains two branches, one that could guide you through the creation of a backward compatible TurboModule and one for a Fabric Component. In your case, the TurboModule will be more appropriate.

You should also have a look at the The New Architecture guide in the website. It contains a bunch of steps that are mandatory to prepare both your library and the receiving app. To support in that, there is this other repo that contains sample migrations from the old architecture to the new one.

I hope these resources can help you!

Thanks for the links! I think my issue is quite specific - so it wasn't covered anywhere in the links.

Do you get this message in the App that tries to use your module or in the Module itself?

I've got a setup here (iOS only so far)

My workflow is using the fabric example and editing the package contents under the Pods directory.

I'm suspecting I'm missing a dependency in my podspec, but cannot for the life of me figure out what dependency I need

This is resolved now - I had to add some private headers (https://github.com/jacobp100/react-native-webworker/blob/master/react-native-webworker.podspec#L28)
