-----------------------
BUILD SYSTEM
-----------------------
System: MacOS High Sierra 10.13.1
Android Version: 7.1.2
react-native-cli version: 2.0.1
react-native version: 0.54.2
react-native-camera: 1.0.2 [https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-camera] 

-----------------------
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
-----------------------

1. $ react-native init "camTest"

2. $ cd camTest

3. -> Connect your android device with USB debugging on. I read somewhere in the documentation of react-native-camera module that it does not work on emulator

4.  [Optional] $ react-native run-android
=> Just to test if everything is working fine

5. $ npm install react-native-camera

6. $ react-native link react-native-camera

7. $ react-native run-android
=> Building the project again after linking the library
