JSON value 'auto' of type NSString cannot be converted about react-native-autogrow-textinput

Hey guys,

We updated the component to work with the latest versions of RN which supports auto growing multi line inputs out of the box - unfortunately, this is only the case for iOS.

This was a major version (4) for this package, for older RN versions you can use the previous version (3).

@GioLogist as i've mentioned in the previous comment, in case you're using an older version of RN, you can use version 3 of this package (i.e. specify "react-native-autogrow-textinput": "^3.0.0" in your package.json).

I encountered the same issue. The problem is that the height style property of _renderTextInputIOS() in the file node_modules/react-native-autogrow-textinput/src/AutoGrowingTextInput.js is set to 'auto'.

It seems strange that a style property of { height: 'auto' } would be included in the script when it appears to be causing this problem. The way to prevent this error is to change the property of the height to { height: this.props.initialHeight } and set the height accordingly as props in <AutoGrowingTextInput ... initialHeight: {100} />

Is there a downfall to simply removing the following in the repo itself?

, {height: 'auto'}

I've had to repeat this step whenever I clean my node_modules, as I am not yet able to upgrade RN on that specific build.

@artald ADD + ignorance on my behalf lead me to not read the entire message - hah, thanks! ✊
