"npm run example android" is throwing lockfile errors

[sadhan46]

Description

Tried to run "npm run example android" and "yarn example android " for running my android app of react native but it threw an error of
"Internal Error: rn-ocr1-sdk@workspace:.: This package doesn't seem to be present in your lockfile; run "yarn install" to update the lockfile"

so I entered the command "yarn install" and still the yarn.lock file is not generated which according to internet has a workspace in it

I'm new to react native side as i'm try to create a sdk of flutter to trigger from react native side through android files

this where my error logs

sadhan@Sadhans-MacBook-Pro rn-ocr1-sdk % yarn example android

Internal Error: rn-ocr1-sdk@workspace:.: This package doesn't seem to be present in your lockfile; run "yarn install" to update the lockfile

[mariojose96]

When building a new project with npx create-react-native-library you need to do the following steps to initialise your project:

1. cd into the project folder (in your case 'rn-login-sdk')
2. Run yarn
3. Run yarn example android

For further information about the development process follow the "CONTRIBUTING.md" instructions in the project root folder.

Yes, as @mariojose96 said, please take a look at the contributing file that's generated alongside your project. I'm converting this to a discussion since it doesn't seem like an issue with create-react-native-library itself.
