Android : Unable to build app #25293

NweThazin · 2019-06-18T07:22:31Z

TL;DR:

Google released a new Major version of their Google Play services and Firebase
this new version has BREAKING CHANGES (release notes)
some third-party libraries used in react-native projects have loose dependencies on said services, most likely in the :+ form in their gradle configuration
this is causing Gradle buils to fail because of those BC mentioned above
to fix, you need to set the dependency to a precise version instead of the :+
you can find out which libraries are "pulling in" this new version by running gradlew app:dependencies and searching the output for androidx (more details here)

Please refer to this comment (and the follow ups) for more details on how to fix - in particular, for debugging, read this comment.

React Native version: 0.58.0
Platform : android

Here are android version:
buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 19
compileSdkVersion = 26
targetSdkVersion = 26
supportLibVersion = "26.1.0"

Building app on android before today is working fine.
and suddenly got this issue in android manifest file
.......\android\app\build\intermediates\manifests\full\debug\AndroidManifest.xml:46:
AAPT: No resource identifier found for attribute 'appComponentFactory' in package 'android'

divyanshupathak94 · 2019-06-18T08:06:16Z

@MR03web any idea how to resolve this ?

nyur321 · 2019-06-18T08:09:38Z

Same issue. This happened a few hours ago. RN version 0.59.8

nghiant96 · 2019-06-18T08:22:37Z

I am update all dependencies (skip react and react-native). It working for me.

Chi-AnTai · 2019-06-18T08:36:12Z

I guess the problem is google play service and firebase just released
https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases

MR03web · 2019-06-18T08:42:53Z

update:
The root cause is related to androidx, google play service...
try upgrade project to androidx

This problem seems to be triggered by the version of react-native-device-info?
2.1.2 constrain play services dependency to pre-AndroidX 16.1.0
react-native-device-info

yarn upgrade react-native-device-info@2.1.2
cd android && gradlew clean
react-native run-android

It working for me.

richieroldan · 2019-06-18T08:45:10Z

This works for me.

Upgrade your project to androidx
https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate

And you need to update your dependencies to androidx as well.

Here's a gist to update all dependencies automatically to androidx

@richieroldan cheers mate

How did you upgrade to androidx by refactoring on androis studio or setting

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

in gradle.properties ?

sorry I'm not using firebase right now.

How to solve this without migrating to AndroidX?

developerashish01 · 2019-06-18T09:10:30Z

@richieroldan yes i am using firebase, it was working very well till yesterday

TomBallagh · 2019-06-18T09:46:38Z

@Chi-AnTai referred to this earlier and this is the answer. Just follow steps on google dev website. Confirmed working for us now.

https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases

Happy building.

Chi-AnTai · 2019-06-18T09:54:33Z

OK, thanks @MR03web

What solve my problem is first upgrade react-native-device-info@2.1.2 follow @MR03web

then change android build.gradle
compileSdkVersion to 28
buildToolsVersion to 28.0.3

change gradle-wrapper.properties
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4-all.zip to 4.6

upgrade Android Studio and from Android Studio Refator => Migrate to AndroidX (before AS upgrade the migration said my android version is not 28 even though my build.gradle is really 28, after upgrade the AS ask me to configure project and the configuration window said my android version is a variable instead of a real number so I change it to 28 and finally I can migrate)

I am not sure every step is necessary, I just list what I have done and hope this can help someone.

The process is very similar to https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases, I guess I fail this at first because my Android Studio is not upgrade.

Thanks https://github.com/MR03web that solved my problem!

Without the need to migrate to AndroidX!

react-native-device-info@0.13.0 use com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:+ library triggered my problem.

Update app/build.gradle:

implementation(project(":react-native-device-info"),  {
  exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
})
implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.0.0"

ENV

React Native version: 0.57.5
Platform : android

buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 16
compileSdkVersion = 27
targetSdkVersion = 26
supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"

@quarryman the versions are wrong..find out why com.google.firebase:firebase-iid requested version is 19.0.0.. this is the latest version as of yesterdays update.. https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases

Here you can see the dependencies of firebase-messaging 17.0.0. (firebase-iid 16.0.0)
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.firebase/firebase-messaging/17.0.0

@Otik133040040 I would look in every plugin in node_modules android/build.gradle and find if the plugin is using a new version listed in the release note..then I would make the changes suggested by nodece and kelset

I hope it helps..

mikehardy · 2019-06-18T13:41:00Z

As the current maintainer of react-native-device-info we did have a loose ('+') dependency in our build.gradle, but it also checked if you specified a version in android/build.gradle first. You should ALWAYS specify your versions like that in android/build.gradle so that you are not subject to 3rd party module defaults (which may either be loose ('+') or just some incompatible version.

Hope everyone gets their gradle files sorted out and has successful builds today

thodubois · 2019-06-18T14:21:54Z

A better way to fix asap is to fix google dependencies versions.

The issue come from your project dependencies. They may implement google dependencies with a :+.
This lead to add some AndroidX dependencies. Your app can only implement support or androidx. Since new versions are compatible androidx, it create issues.

Search in your node_modules if a package implement things like com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:+.

See : https://developers.google.com/android/guides/releases

I use react-native-device-info and react-native-google-analytics-bridge and both check a googlePlayServicesVersion variable for a version.

I add googlePlayServicesVersion = '16.+' in android/build.gradle :

buildscript {
    ext {
        googlePlayServicesVersion = '16.+'

And it works for me.

Is it possible to overwrite some dependencies from the root project?

calintamas · 2019-06-18T14:30:37Z

If using zo0r/react-native-push-notification,
specify exact versions in android/build.gradle:

buildscript {
    ext {
        ...
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.1.0"
        firebaseVersion = "17.3.4"
       ...
    }
}

hrachqyutukyan · 2019-06-18T14:36:16Z

try change in your android/build.gradle file

buildscript {
    ext {
        ...
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.0.0"
        firebaseVersion = "17.3.4"
       ...
    }
}

@kelset Thanks for the workaround! For anyone else that is still having issues, please pay special attention to kelset's comment above:

you have other libraries (not device-info) that depend on latest, and you need to debug/find out which ones

I had another third-party dependency (react-native-google-analytics-bridge) which specified in its build.gradle file the following: com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:+. Taking a look over at the Google Android APIs release notes page, there were breaking updates to the whole com.google.android.gms group of APIs on 17th June 2019. To fix my issue, I added the following to my android/app/build.gradle file:

implementation(project(":react-native-google-analytics-bridge`"),  {
  exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
})
implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:16.0.8"

Make sure to check through all your third-party dependency android/build.gradle files and to look in particular for any com.google.android.gms:<API-name>:+ patterns, which will be pulling the latest APIs. Then head over to the Google APIs release notes page and find the latest 16.x.x update, which should hopefully fix any issues.

kelset · 2019-06-18T15:21:25Z

Thanks @bonesyblue for the write up, it's way more clear than mine 😅🙇‍♂️

Given that this issue sort of spinned out of control a bit, I'll lock it for now to keep your comment as the one people will land on 👍
