React-hot-loader: react-

Question

I updated some npm packages in my Gatsby project and now I\'m seeing this warning in console:

React-hot-loader: react-

Answer 1

Per my comment above, it's looking like react-hot-loader wants the @hot-loader/react-dom package instead of standard react-dom:

• https://github.com/gaearon/react-hot-loader#react--dom
• https://github.com/hot-loader/react-dom

Personally I'm a little concerned with swapping that out though since react-dom is a core part of any react-based application. Also it seems based on some of the linked issues and code comments that maybe this is just a short-term workaround to support new react features like hooks.

So I guess there's two options:

• Wait a little longer to see if they drop that requirement (and maybe run into a few edge cases for hot loading).
• Follow the instructions to get rid of the warning.

Update

You can disable the warning like so:

import { hot, setConfig } from 'react-hot-loader'

setConfig({
    showReactDomPatchNotification: false
})
