To Reproduce
Use targetSdkVersion 34 in your app/build.gradle file and run flutter build apk
NOTE: Did you try our example app? If not, then stop try our example app and try to reproduce with it? If your app is failing and not the example app then it might be something related to your app. If the example app also fails then it is more likely for us to help you.
Expected behavior
The app should build without requiring to add :
implementation 'com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-chinese:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-devanagari:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-japanese:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-korean:16.0.0'
Note : adding the above lines allow me to build with API 34, but also add an extra 30MB size to the app that i don't need.
Platform (please complete the following information):
- OS: Android 10
- Device: Motorola
- Flutter/Dart Version : 3.13.5
- Plugin version :
google_mlkit_text_recognition: 0.10.0
@Tom3652 Adding the following to /android/app/proguard-rules.pro fixed the error for me:
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.chinese.ChineseTextRecognizerOptions$Builder
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.chinese.ChineseTextRecognizerOptions
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.devanagari.DevanagariTextRecognizerOptions$Builder
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.devanagari.DevanagariTextRecognizerOptions
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.japanese.JapaneseTextRecognizerOptions$Builder
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.japanese.JapaneseTextRecognizerOptions
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.korean.KoreanTextRecognizerOptions$Builder
-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.korean.KoreanTextRecognizerOptions
@IAmJulianAcosta While I appreciate your fix, I was wondering what this does? Why are there suddenly missing files and why do we need to manually add those lines to this file? Is this safe? Can we revert this in the future? What is this all about?
@gerken-tss I don't remember where did I get it, IIRC, what it does is telling the compiler? that it's fine if it doesn't find the files so the build doesn't break
Faced this issue. Without adding those languages it should compile. For now adding the dontwarn in progruard works, but we do need a fix for this.
after applying @IAmJulianAcosta 's steps, it still gave the error for me. Adding minifyEnabled true and proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro' inside android>buildTypes>release fixed it!
android {
buildTypes {
release {
// TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
// Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
signingConfig = signingConfigs.debug
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
@Tom3652 Adding the following to
/android/app/proguard-rules.profixed the error for me:-dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.chinese.ChineseTextRecognizerOptions$Builder -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.chinese.ChineseTextRecognizerOptions -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.devanagari.DevanagariTextRecognizerOptions$Builder -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.devanagari.DevanagariTextRecognizerOptions -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.japanese.JapaneseTextRecognizerOptions$Builder -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.japanese.JapaneseTextRecognizerOptions -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.korean.KoreanTextRecognizerOptions$Builder -dontwarn com.google.mlkit.vision.text.korean.KoreanTextRecognizerOptions
finding a solution to this. 💡
@Tom3652 I add implementation("com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-chinese:16.0.0") implementation("com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-devanagari:16.0.0") implementation("com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-japanese:16.0.0") implementation("com.google.mlkit:text-recognition-korean:16.0.0") above lines in build.gradle.kts and make apk like "flutter build apk --release". Apk size is 106MB. What do you think is it really big??
