React Native Zip Archive - Migration to New Architecture

[sultanmyrza]

Description

When running the command:

eas build --local --platform android --profile preview

I encountered the following warning:

[RUN_EXPO_DOCTOR] Advice: Use 'npx expo install --check' to review and upgrade your dependencies.
[RUN_EXPO_DOCTOR] The following issues were found when validating your dependencies against React Native Directory:
[RUN_EXPO_DOCTOR] Untested on New Architecture: react-native-zip-archive

Temporary Solution

As a temporary workaround, based on https://docs.expo.dev/guides/new-architecture/#third-party-libraries-and-the-new-architecture I added the following configuration to my package.json:

"expo": {
  "doctor": {
    "reactNativeDirectoryCheck": {
      "exclude": ["react-native-zip-archive"],
      "listUnknownPackages": false
    }
  }
}

This change suppresses the warning, but it is not a long-term solution.

Request for Migration

A better approach would be to migrate react-native-zip-archive to the New Architecture. Migrating Your React Native Library to the New Architecture.

Thank you for the feedback. I completely agree that upgrading to a new architecture is essential, and I believe AI tools can significantly ease the process.
