[SOLVED] Problems updating from React 15.6.2 to 16.7.0

react

EDIT: Updating to react-mixin@5.0.0 and react-codemirror@1.0.0 did the trick!

I’m on Meteor 1.8 and am having problems updating to a newer version of React. I’m hoping someone here can help me figure out what the conflict might be.

Running meteor npm outdated:

Does your terminal log something? I had trouble with react prop types and had to add a package concerning them alone…

Double check the upgrade section just in case: https://reactjs.org/blog/2017/09/26/react-v16.0.html#upgrading

Also check your Meteor packages that there not some that require React. As @sewbot mentioned prop-types is a new package that you should use for prop types. Other than that nothing sticks out, but I’m not familiar with most of those packages, so you should consult their readmes and changelogs to see if there aren’t some specific restrictions.

Posting the exact errors will help.

Also, do you use react-mixins? If yes, use version 5.0 for the deprecated lifecycles of react 16

Bingo! Came here to report back that after an hour of installing and uninstalling various packages, eventually found react-mixin was the culprit.
