Topic: Error: Material-UI: react@16.3.0 or greater is required.
mattagape pro asked 5 years ago
Expected behavior
When I do require("mdbreact")
, I expect to get mdbreact
Actual behavior
Instead I get this console error: Error: Material-UI: react@16.3.0 or greater is required.
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
My app is built using Gatsby.js, v1.9.247. This Gatsby version (which I am not able to upgrade without some major refitting) has react v15.6.0
baked into it -- thus I am not able to upgrade my React version to the 16.3.0 version demanded in the console error.
Do I need to downgrade my version of mdbreact
to a version lower than 4.20.0
? (which it is now) If I need to downgrade mdbreact
in order to accommodate my older version of react
, how can I do so? If I try to run...
$ yarn add mdbreact@4.8.0
... I end up with "mdbreact": "4.8.0"
in package.json
which makes my "MDB pro" functionality inaccessible.
Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi @mattagape,
My package.json
file has these dependencies:
"dependencies": {
"@svgr/webpack": "^4.1.0",
"gatsby": "^2.0.76",
"gatsby-image": "^2.0.20",
"gatsby-plugin-manifest": "^2.0.9",
"gatsby-plugin-offline": "^2.0.16",
"gatsby-plugin-react-helmet": "^3.0.2",
"gatsby-plugin-sharp": "^2.0.14",
"gatsby-plugin-svgr": "^2.0.1",
"gatsby-source-filesystem": "^2.0.8",
"gatsby-transformer-sharp": "^2.1.8",
"mdbreact": "4.20.0",
"prop-types": "^15.6.2",
"react": "^16.9.0",
"react-dom": "^16.9.0",
"react-helmet": "^5.2.0",
"react-router-dom": "^5.0.1"
},
And everything works correctly.
If you need we can send you MDBreact with other versions.
it's possible that versions between gatsby and MDBreact should be updated to the newest so that everything doesn't conflict with each other.
Also, we in the next update remove Material-UI
from our package. Maybe the error is from here.
Please copy your repo and then try to set :
"mdbreact": "4.20.0", //or import your pro version
"react": "^16.9.0",
"react-dom": "^16.9.0",
then delete yarn.lock, node modules, and package-lock.json. and run npm i
,
Please tell me if you have news for this issue. Thanks.
Best regards, Konrad.

I couldn't figure it out so I did a...
$ git fetch --all
$ git reset --hard origin/master
...from my repo. I still don't know what the problem was, but at least the error has gone away.

It might be nice if MDBReact could show us how to easily change local versions of it. In my case version
4.8.2
worked, but4.20.0
broke my app.mattagape pro commented 5 years ago
I think my problem was that I'd deleted
yarn.lock
before (while also deleting.cache
&node_modules
folders). Then when I ran$ yarn
, MDBReact automatically installed its latest version of4.20.0
. I guess I need to refrain from deletingyarn.lock
in order to keep my [working]4.8.2
version of MDBReact.
