how to get offline bunduling of ios in react native

Anyone could you please explain how to generate offline bundle of ios application from \'react native\' code.

Already I tried \"How to generate .ipa file for react-nat

Answer 1

I am assuming you wish to run the app on a ios device without deploying it into the app store. If that is the case then:

First I would make sure I have ios-deploy installed.

You can do so by running npm install -g ios-deploy

Then connect the iphone you want the app to be installed in into your mac.

Then run

react-native run-ios --device "XYZ’s iPhone" --configuration=release

This would create a offline js bundled app and install it onto the iphone.

PS: If it errors out saying

Signing for "" requires a development team. 
Select a development team in the project editor.

Then open up the project inside ios/ in Xcode and Select the target -> General Tab Under signing choose the signing team and choose automatically manage signing.

Then save and re-run the command.
