Summary: This replaces `glob@^7.0.0` with `tinyglobby@^0.2.15`. `glob@7` has been deprecated for a while and some versions after had security notices released for them. The plan is to backport this PR to `0.81.x` and onwards. > [!NOTE] > This is a stopgap solution until `fs.glob` becomes generally available with the EOL of Node v20 Succeeds: - https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/54669 - https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/48875 ## Changelog: [GENERAL] [SECURITY] - Replace `glob@^7.0.0` with `tinyglobby@^0.2.15` Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/54737 Test Plan: - Ran all modified commands manually and `pod install in `rn-tester` - NOTE: `ios-prebuild`-related scripts haven't been run manually yet Reviewed By: robhogan Differential Revision: D88069145 Pulled By: huntie fbshipit-source-id: 0c455342a4c6d1d6605fd09fe47b418e5d751491

TypeScript build pipeline for React Native's JavaScript API.
Overview
yarn build-types is a custom build pipeline for translating React Native's Flow source code to TypeScript.
Specifically, it reduces the runtime JavaScript API of react-native into two outputs:
- Generated TypeScript types
Public user types for react-native, shipped to npm
packages/react-native/types_generated/ - Public API snapshot
Snapshot file of the public API shape, used by maintainers
packages/react-native/ReactNativeApi.d.ts
Dependencies
yarn build-types makes use of the following dependencies, composed with other pre/post transformation steps and dependency resolution.
- Flow → TypeScript conversion: flow-api-extractor
- TypeScript → (initial) API rollup: @microsoft/api-extractor
Usage
Build generated types + API snapshot
Maintainers should run this script whenever making intentional API changes.
# Build types + API snapshot
yarn build-types [--validate]
# Build types without API snapshot
yarn build-types --skip-snapshot
Diff API snapshot compatibility
This script is run by CI to compare changes to ReactNativeApi.d.ts between commits.
# Compare two versions of the API snapshot
yarn js-api-diff <before.d.ts> <after.d.ts>

}
Configuration
Sparse configuration options are defined and documented in scripts/js-api/config.js.
About the two output formats
Generated TypeScript types
types_generated/
Directory providing TypeScript user types for the react-native package, distributed via npm.
- Gitignored.
- Scoped to the
index.d.tsentry point viapackage.json#exports. - Preserves
unstable_andexperimental_APIs. - Preserves doc comments.
- Preserves source file names (for go to definition).
Public API snapshot
ReactNative.d.ts
Provides a human-readable, maintainable reference of the React Native's public JavaScript API, optimized for developers and diff tooling.
- Committed to the repo.
- Strips
unstable_andexperimental_APIs. - Strips doc comments.
- Strips source file names (types are merged into a single program).
- Versions exported APIs with an 8 char SHA hash, which will be updated when any input type dependencies change shape.
