I am new with react native and I am trying to load a Json data containing a categories list and then trying to display their names. This is my code

import categories from '../Categories.json';

render () {
return (
<View>
{categories.map(ctegory => <Text> category.name </Text>)}
</View>

I get this error

undefined is not a function (near '..._Categories2.default.map...')

Do you have an idea on how to solve this?

I am trying to do it with react native, not javascript alone, so no. – j.doe Oct 19 '17 at 14:28
react is a javascript library so Yes. It works just as same. Please try the suggestions before saying _no_ – bennygenel Oct 19 '17 at 14:29
You have a typo in your code. {categories.map(ctegory => category.name )} – palsrealm Oct 19 '17 at 14:41
Still the same problem. undefined is not a function. I am not able to call .map on my object – j.doe Oct 19 '17 at 14:43
show your `categories.json` and how you export the json from it. – Panther Oct 19 '17 at 16:58
