Configuring dependency validation

There may be circumstances where you want to use a version of a package that is different from the version recommended by npx expo install. In this case, you can exclude specific packages from version checking by using the expo.install.exclude property in your project's package.json.

Important

Using different versions than recommended may cause your app to not work properly in Expo Go. Consider using Development Builds instead.

install.exclude

The following commands perform a version check for the libraries installed in a project and give a warning when a library's version is different from the version recommended by Expo:

  • npx expo start and npx expo-doctor
  • npx expo install (when installing a new version of that library or using --check or --fix options)

By specifying the library under the install.exclude array in the package.json file, you can exclude it from the version checks:

{
  "expo": {
    "install": {
      "exclude": ["expo-updates", "expo-splash-screen"]
    }
  }
}

See the package.json configuration guide for more options.
