Property 'HMRClient' doesn't exist about repack

[jbroma]

@mikeFromUDig @vinhmdev @peterbd found the root issue.

to resolve the error in question please adjust the path of @callstack/repack inside of module.rules in webpack.config.mjs like this:

diff --git a/templates/webpack.config.mjs b/templates/webpack.config.mjs
index 18313be..e702a00 100644

Sorry, but I resolved it by disabling HMR -_-,

In the ‘webpack.config.mjs’ file, replace:
hmr: devServer && devServer.hmr, -> hmr: false

hi @mikeFromUDig

I don't have access to a Windows machine atm, but I have an idea what might be happening, can you try doing the following:

In webpack.config please replace

entry: [
  ...Repack.getInitializationEntries(reactNativePath, {
    hmr: devServer && devServer.hmr,
  }),
  entry,
],

with

entry: [
  ...Repack.getInitializationEntries(reactNativePath, {
    hmr: false,
  }),
  path.resolve('@callstack/repack/modules/WebpackHMRClient.js'),
  entry,
],

Please see if that works. The path to WebpackHMRClient might need some adjusting though.
