Image not showing when mapping an array and render an image

Question

I have this array of images in my project.

this.state.destinations = [{
    "destinationId": "001",
    "img": "../../assets/img/destinations/001.png"
  },
  {
    "destinationId": "002",
    "img": "../../assets/img/destinations/002.png"
  },
  {
    "destinationId": "003",
    "img": "../../assets/img/destinations/003.png"
  }]
}

I am trying to repeat each of them inside a View in a Image component like this:

render() {

    var {navigate} = this.props.navigation;

    return (
        <LinearGradient 
          colors={['#514A9D', '#24C6DC']} start={[0.0, 0.5]} end={[1.0, 0.5]} locations={[0.0, 1.0]} style={{flex:1}}>
            <ScrollView>
              {
                <View style={{paddingTop: 24}}>
                  {
                    this.state.destinations.map(dest => {
                      return <Image style={{height: 200, width: 600}} key={dest.destinationId} source={require(dest.img)} resizeMode="contain" />
                    })
                  }
                </View>
              }
            </ScrollView>
        </LinearGradient>
    );
  }

But I getting some crazy error in my phone when trying to run:

I trying to run the app in expo and I am just developing it in react-native mode, not react-native-init mode.

Try refactoring your code in the following way, moving your use of require directly to where your data is defined so that the static resource path is evaluated correctly:

this.state.destinations = [{
    "destinationId": "001",
    "img": require("../../assets/img/destinations/001.png")
  },
  {
    "destinationId": "002",
    "img": require("../../assets/img/destinations/002.png")
  },
  {
    "destinationId": "003",
    "img": require("../../assets/img/destinations/003.png")
  }]
}

And then update the way you render <Image /> like so, removing the call to require() and referencing dest.img directly:

this.state.destinations.map(dest => {
  return <Image source={dest.img}
           key={dest.destinationId}
           style={{height: 200, width: 600}} 
           resizeMode='contain' />
})

Hope this helps!
