I am working on an Image picker on react native. Im getting a warning … Key "uri" in the image picker result is deprecated and will be removed in SDK 48, you can access selected assets through the "assets" array instead. I am getting on both android emulator and IOS How can I overcome this?
const selectImage = async () =>{
try {
const result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
allowsEditing: true,
aspect: [4, 3],
quality: 0.5
});
if(!result.canceled){
setImage(result.uri)
saveToFile();
}else Alert.alert('Delete', 'Are you sure you want to delte the image', [
{text:"Yes", onPress:()=> setImage(null)},{text:"No"} ])
} catch (error) {
console.log("error reading an image")
}
}

setImage(result.assets[0].uri) instead of
setImage(result.uri)
This will solve but will land you in a new problem of promises which I am also figuring out.
I have been trying hard for 3 days but this (result.assets[0].uri) didnt work for me! But suddenly I found this solution below I hope it also works for you:
Just install this in the frontend:
npx expo install expo-image-picker
and I add this in your app.json under expo
"plugins": ["expo-image-picker"],
I hope it works for you too
