error: "utf8.decode is not a function"

[MillerGregor]

For anyone else getting this error:

There's a naming collision between the "utf8" package and react-native's internal utf8 library.

@eacbkk forked utf8 to rename it:
https://github.com/eacbkk/utf8.js

I've forked redux-persist-fs-storage and forked @tianling536's fork of react-native-fs to avoid the utf8 error and get RN 0.5x.x support:

https://github.com/Gregor1971/redux-persist-fs-storage
https://github.com/Gregor1971/react-native-fs

Thanks for your report! This looks like an issue of react-native-fs. Could you file an issue there?

[MillerGregor]

Yes, I meant to do that. Here's a link: itinance/react-native-fs#422

Obviously, you can close this. I just wanted something to turn up when people search.

The RN team knows about this: facebook/react-native/pull/17146

This is fixed in upstream: facebook/react-native#17146
