Tried adding babel-plugin-module-resolver, but that didn't help. Need to figure out how Expo does this behind the scenes and adapt it to when paths for the share extension target are resolved.

potential solution: https://github.com/expo/fyi/blob/main/absolute-path-expo-modules.md

@MaxAst

Hi @MaxAst, besides the error on the aliases, does the build through EAS work? have you already tried a compilation?

Thanks in advance

@Remeic

Hey @Remeic, yes, besides the alias error EAS works like a charme with this plugin

@MaxAst

@MaxAst seconding this issue

@MaxAst

@MaxAst actually, I figured out a solution here. Made this change to my metro.config.js:

// Learn more https://docs.expo.io/guides/customizing-metro
// const { getSentryExpoConfig } = require("@sentry/react-native/metro");
const { getDefaultConfig } = require("expo/metro-config");
const path = require("path");

/**
 * Add support for share.js as a recognized extension to the Metro config.
 * This allows creating an index.share.js entry point for our iOS share extension
 *
 * @param {import('expo/metro-config').MetroConfig} config
 * @returns {import('expo/metro-config').MetroConfig}
 */
function withShareExtension(config) {
  config.resolver.resolveRequest = (context, moduleName, platform) => {
    // Checking if module name starts with '@'
    if (moduleName.startsWith("@/")) {
      // Replacing '@' with absolute path
      moduleName = moduleName.replace("@", path.resolve(__dirname));
    }
    return context.resolveRequest(context, moduleName, platform);
  };

  config.transformer.getTransformOptions = () => ({
    resolver: {
      sourceExts: [...config.resolver.sourceExts, "share.js"], // Add 'share.js' as a recognized extension
    },
  });

  return config;
}

module.exports = withShareExtension(
  getDefaultConfig(__dirname, {
    // [Web-only]: Enables CSS support in Metro.
    isCSSEnabled: true,
  }),
);

@chris-sark

nice @chris-sark! I'll give this a try later

@MaxAst

@MaxAst sounds good! if you could provide any insight into how to use .env variables that would be extremely useful as well: #45

@chris-sark

@chris-sark Thanks for that alias fix. Worked great for me.
