implementing react-native-fbsdkshare
I have followed the guide written on https://github.com/facebook/react-native-fbsdk to install and use the react-native-fbsdk module. However, when I click the "Share" button it throws the following error:
'Error: undefined is not an object (evaluating \'FBSDKShareDialogInterface.show\')
Also 3 warnings appear when I run the app:
'Warning: Native component for "RCTFBSDKShareButton" does not exist' 'Warning: Native component for "RCTFBSDKSendButton" does not exist' 'Warning: Native component for "RCTFBSDKLikeControl" does not exist'
This is the code that I use:
var FBSDKShare = require('react-native-fbsdkshare');
var { FBSDKShareDialog, FBSDKShareDialogInterface, FBSDKShareLinkContent, FBSDKShareShareButton } = FBSDKShare;
shareOnFacebook() {
var linkContent = new FBSDKShareLinkContent('https://facebook.com', 'Wow, check out this great site!', 'Facebook.com', null);
// Share the link using the native share dialog.
FBSDKShareDialog.show(linkContent, (error, result) => {
if (!error) {
if (result.isCancelled) {
alert('Share cancelled.');
} else {
alert('Thanks for sharing!');
}
} else {
alert('Error sharing.');
}
});
<TouchableHighlight style={[itemStyles.itemButtonShare,itemStyles.itemButtonShareFacebook]} onPress={() => this.shareOnFacebook(item)}><Text>Share On Facebook</Text></TouchableHighlight>
(I have FBSDKCoreKit.framework, FBSDKLoginKit.framework and FBSDKShareKit.framework already installed and framework search path is set.) Anyone can help with this error please? thanks

Ok finally I decided to create a native method and call it from react side. If anybody faces this problem this is the alternate solution:
Create 2 files, FacebookShareManager.h and FacebookShareManager.m :
The content of FacebookShareManager.h should be:
#import "RCTBridgeModule.h"
@interface FacebookShareManager : NSObject <RCTBridgeModule>
@end
and the content of the FacebookShareManager.m :
#import "FacebookShareManager.h"
#import "FBSDKCoreKit/FBSDKCoreKit.h"
#import "FBSDKShareKit/FBSDKShareKit.h"
@implementation FacebookShareManager
RCT_EXPORT_MODULE();
RCT_EXPORT_METHOD(showDialog: (NSDictionary *)params callback:(RCTResponseSenderBlock)callback ) {
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
FBSDKShareLinkContent *content = [[FBSDKShareLinkContent alloc] init];
NSURL * shareUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:params[@"contentUrl"]];
NSURL * shareImageUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:params[@"contentImageUrl"]];
NSString * shareTitle = [NSString stringWithString:params[@"contentTitle"]];
NSString * shareDescription = [NSString stringWithString:params[@"contentDescription"]];
content.contentURL = shareUrl;
content.imageURL = shareImageUrl;
content.contentTitle = shareTitle;
content.contentDescription = shareDescription;
[FBSDKShareDialog showFromViewController:nil
withContent:content
delegate:nil];
});
};
@end
Now you we need to call this method from our react-native component:
First include the manager at the top of your react-native component class file:
var FacebookShareManager = require('NativeModules').FacebookShareManager;
Now inside your component class add this method:
shareOnFacebook(item) {
var params = {"contentUrl": item.url,"contentImageUrl": item.pictureUrl,"contentTitle": item.title,"contentDescription":item.description};
FacebookShareManager.showDialog(params, (info)=> {
// do something you need...
});
}
I had exactly the same problem, and it turned out that I had facebook sdk v4.7.1. So
- I removed the previous and downloaded the latest v4.8.0.
- Then I followed again all steps starting from installing JavaScript packages
- Then manually added files to xcode.
After I used share dialogs from example on github and everything works fine now.
