Hi there, I'm having trouble getting themes to work:

I have this component:

export default class App extends Component<*, State> {
    render() {
        return (
            <StyleProvider theme={{}}>
                <SafeAreaView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
                    <Test/>
                </SafeAreaView>
            </StyleProvider>
        );
    }
}

That tries to use the Test component:

class _Test extends React.Component<{
    style: Object
}> {
    render() {
        const styles = this.props.style;

        return <View style={styles.test}>
            <Text>TEST</Text>
        </View>;
    }
}

const Test = connectStyle('test', {
    test: {
        backgroundColor: 'red'
    }
})(_Test);

As is, the element gets rendered with a red background.

When I try to change the theme's color, nothing happens:


export default class App extends Component<*, State> {
    render() {
        return (
            <StyleProvider theme={{
                'test': {
                    test: {
                        backgroundColor: 'green'
                    },

                    backgroundColor: 'green'
                }
            }}>
                <SafeAreaView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
                    <Test/>
                </SafeAreaView>
            </StyleProvider>
        );
    }
}

What am I doing wrong? I've followed everything the docs said.
