I am using react-native-qr-code-scanner to add QR scanner functionality in my app. I followed all the instaruction ther & everything works fine on android but when i build my app on ios app is not able to find the RNPermissions library so i manually linked it as suggested on it README. Linked error is now gone and i am getting Invali RMPermission ios.PERMISSION.CAMERA should be one of(). The error is described on the github page of react-native-permissions README PAGE & steps to solve it. it says

Check that you linked at least one permission handler.

I cannot add permission handler as described there to Podfile as it aslo installs the React(0.11.0) verison automatically (but this is not required ) as i already have newest react. what is the way to solve this?

[!]

When i run pod install after adding 

  permissions_path = '../node_modules/react-native-permissions/ios'
  pod 'Permission-Camera', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Camera.podspec"

i get 

Unable to find a specification for `RNPermissions` depended upon by `Permission-Camera`

You have either:
 * out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
 * mistyped the name or version.
 * not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.

I've gotten the issue ios.PERMISSION.CAMERA should be one of() as well, use the following command in podfile will solve your issue. 

  pod 'RNPermissions', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-permissions'
  permissions_path = '../node_modules/react-native-permissions/ios'
  pod 'Permission-Camera', :path => "#{permissions_path}/Camera.podspec"
