External xcframework isn't copied when build

[carlosriveroib]

Description

Hi,

I've made a react native module which needs an external library. I've copied it to the root of the project and then I've added in .podspec file s.vendored_frameworks = "XXXX.xcframework"

This works, but when I do yarn prepare the XXXX.xcframework is not copied and then when I install it in my project the framework is not there and I cannot use it

Packages

• create-react-native-library
• react-native-builder-bob

    ]
  },

but when I do yarn prepare the XXXX.xcframework is not copied

Why should it be copied?

when I install it in my project the framework is not there

Did you add it to the files array in package.json? https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v10/configuring-npm/package-json#files

Sorry for the inconvenience, I didn't know files option in package.json, this solved my problem. Thank you very much, you saved my day.
