undefined is not a function(evaluation 'object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(arguments[i])')

[azcodia]

before it went smoothly, but after I made native react a new error occurred,
this is the problem
"undefined is not a function (evaluation 'object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors (arguments [i])')"

even though the code is not I add a little bit of input
and that makes me crazy

[punyasurya]

Same problem

[gabsima-nexapp]

I've updated from react native 0.55 to 0.57 and i get this error on android while on ios everything works fine.

I've updated the dependencies in gradle in order to be able to build but i still get the error..

Same problem here, android only, without reason (it was working few hours ago for me).
But the error disappear if i enable the 'debug JS remotely' option...

@luolin2611 , that is it. I create a complete new project but the error appear at the first time running the project.

Thanks @gabsima-nexapp , I move to iOS project to continue my work first and deal with Android later

restart your computer to solve this problem

I have exactly the same error here. my region is in Indonesia

[PIlepRusel]

restart your computer to solve this problem
does this fix the problem ?

[ken-talkingsource]

restart your computer to solve this problem
does this fix the problem ?

I restarted (my mac) but didn't solve this problem.

[huiruo]

react native undefined is not an object(evaluating 'Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(arguments[i])')

[aldy010]

still no fix yet, tried the above solution

[mohsincox]

I restarted my computer, but did not solve the problem

[GantMan]

I have a terrible fix.

I guessed that the problem was some kind of dependency upgrade, and because React Native does not come locked to working versions, something got published and broke it.

I grabbed a yarn.lock from a project from over the weekend, pasted that into my project's yarn.lock file and then did yarn at the command line to have it automatically prune/lock things back up. Somewhere in that mess, it grabbed the right stuff and now I can use Android again. Not a great fix, but hopefully it helps!

TL:DR;

1. Copy this yarn.lock contents https://gist.github.com/GantMan/347fb4206fa7be141ff7133ba4859afd
2. Past it over your project's yarn.lock contents
3. run yarn in the CLI

[sunnylqm]

@GantMan I just did the same thing. I saw mainly babel update when diffing a working version and a broken version. It is hard to tell what deps cause the break, so the best option is definitely to use a whole working lock file.

[rolignu2]

please , reopen the issue. i have the same problem it probably because the object.getOwnPropertiesDescriptor doesn't exists anymore, the same happended on
react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view, the problem is on

node_modules/@babel/runtime/helpers/objectSpread.js

Object.defineProperties(target, Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(arguments[i]));

but i don't know how i can solve

[ashishmundra]

same issue here

[rolignu2]

Ok guys , i have a temporaly fix ,

go to

node_modules/@babel/runtime/helpers/objectSpread.js

find the LINE OF CODE :

Object.defineProperties(target, Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(arguments[i]));

Replace the line with this code:

     var source = arguments[i] != null ? arguments[i] : {};
      var ownKeys = Object.keys(source);

      if (typeof Object.getOwnPropertySymbols === 'function') {
        ownKeys = ownKeys.concat(Object.getOwnPropertySymbols(source).filter(function (sym) {
          return Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(source, sym).enumerable;
        }));
      }

      ownKeys.forEach(function (key) {
        defineProperty(target, key, source[key]);
      });

I HOPE I CAN HELP US, THIS IS THE UNIQUE METHOD WHAT WORKS

[sunnylqm]

@rolignu2 Thanks for locating the line, so I guess this pr of babel-helpers cause the problem. It forgot to check this function in else branch. Please fix this asap @hzoo @saschanaz

Workaround

Add the following to your package.json:

  "resolutions": {
    "@babel/helpers": "7.2.0",
    "@babel/runtime": "7.2.0"
  }

Then run rm -rf node_modules && yarn && yarn start --reset-cache

[mgwidmann]

@sunnylqm Wow merged 10 hours ago... Sad that the NPM world is like this.

babel/babel#9341

[rolignu2]

@sunnylqm thanks man to apply the revert.
@azcodia please close the issue. everything works well

[Jay-flow]

@rolignu2 Thanks for locating the line
I refer to the project I used before.
It is work for me.
node_modules/@babel/runtime/helpers/objectSpread.js
Replace with the code below in the path above.

var defineProperty = require("./defineProperty");

function _objectSpread(target) {
  for (var i = 1; i < arguments.length; i++) {
    var source = arguments[i] != null ? arguments[i] : {};
    var ownKeys = Object.keys(source);

    if (typeof Object.getOwnPropertySymbols === 'function') {
      ownKeys = ownKeys.concat(Object.getOwnPropertySymbols(source).filter(function (sym) {
        return Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(source, sym).enumerable;
      }));
    }

    ownKeys.forEach(function (key) {
      defineProperty(target, key, source[key]);
    });
  }

  return target;
}

module.exports = _objectSpread;

Thank you, it solved this problems of mine.

[sunnylqm]

Babel just published a hotfixed version. Just remove your yarn.lock and yarn and this issue should be gone.

[bepehr]

@sunnylqm solution worked for me , just add that lines to package.json , and run yarn then run react-native run-android

[XieTongXue]

same problem, i delete the demo and run react-native init AwesomeProject again, fixed.

[raghulvaikundam]

run npm install in the project directory to fix the issue. This command will install the missed dependency for the react native project

[xinchanghao]

run npm install in the project directory to fix the issue. This command will install the missed dependency for the react native project

i tried it, it didn't work...

[xinchanghao]

Retry react-native init name，it's ok!

[raghulvaikundam]

run npm install in the project directory to fix the issue. This command will install the missed dependency for the react native project

i tried it, it didn't work...

maybe u check with your package.json. Tried with latest react-native version 0.57

[Dafa-Alla]

I solve this proplem now

1-Delete the old project and create a new project
 2-Then open the cmd for the project path and type
3-npm istall
Then
4-react-native init AwesomeProject
5- react-native run-android

[kelset]

Hey everyone, looks like this was a Babel issue - they should have published an hotfix on their side already, in the meantime to avoid too much noise I'll lock this issue.

A workaround can be found here - thanks @sunnylqm 👍

EDIT: the breaking change was reverted in babel/babel#9379 and released in: https://github.com/babel/babel/releases/tag/v7.3.1

Anyone facing this issue simply needs to nuke yarn lock etc.
