Issue

Thank you for the awesome package!

I was successfully able to install and build in android studio with package'@react-native-firebase/app'.

However, when I follow steps here: https://invertase.io/oss/react-native-firebase/v6/analytics/quick-start,

The sync fails with:

FAILURE: Build completed with 2 failures.

1: Task failed with an exception.

You need to install the alpha package. We're updating the docs at the moment as this is something which a few people are hitting.

yarn add @react-native-firebase/analytics@alpha

[santoshachari]

Thanks, Elliot @Ehesp! On installing the package, this Firebase app import was referenced wrongly:

import io.invertase.firebase.ReactNativeFirebaseAppPackage;

in MainApplication.java, instead of

import io.invertase.firebase.app.ReactNativeFirebaseAppPackage;

[Ayush1011]

how to fix this problem im still getting this

[mikehardy]

@rambo006mm I saw your other issue, my best advice is use v5 - it's the branch to use unless you are interested in testing and able to bust through problems on your own and provide solutions like santoshachari did for the v6 branch

[ahmadi-akbar]

./node_module/@react-native-firebase/analytics/android/build.gradle line 58

replace slash with underscore like this

api project(':@react-native-firebase/app') => api project(':@react-native-firebase_app')

[BunsinNANH]

I also faced this problem How to fix it.

Thank you in advance

[Ayush1011]

For me this problem arise when i run react native link after beating my head i resolve it by making my app build. Gradle msin build.gradle main application java and seeting.gradle to its previous version before react native link by pressing ctrl z its basically naive solution but it can work

[Ayush1011]

If it dont work remove node modules and package. Json and install all modules again

[ddman]

My solution

android/settings.gradle:

include ':@react-native-firebase_app' project(':@react-native-firebase_app').projectDir = new File(rootProject.proj

[cemo]

@ddman can you please write again your solution? It seems it is truncated..

[vstukanov]

@cemo

include ':@react-native-firebase_app'
project(':@react-native-firebase_app').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/app/android')

[cemo]

@vstukanov thanks. My problem was that I need to define "firebase.json" in the android folder. It solved it.

[AnaisGalisson-Mylo]

@cemo Hello,

what do you mean by "define firebase.json" in the android folder?

Thanks !

I had the same problem, because I was installing with "npm", I uninstalled from "npm" and installed via "yarn" and it worked.

yarn add @react-native-firebase/app yarn add @react-native-firebase/auth

At "npm" the auto-link was not happening.

@MahbbRah this is a closed issue, it will probably be best to open a new issue with complete details - and please post text not images, so they are searchable and quotable etc, and work well while mobile

[MahbbRah]

``* What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring project ':@react-native-firebase_auth'.

I was having similar issue. this is probably because of you do not have installed the @react-native-firebase/app Please check your package.json and make sure this is included and installed by yarn otherwise it will throw error like above

[losheredos]

This firebase becoming so messed up.. Like how it can have so many bugs in every release..

[mikehardy]

@losheredos any and all PRs fixing bugs are happily accepted, open source requires contributions from everyone, right? In reviewing your github activity I see only issues created, no PRs, no reviews :thinking: :man_shrugging: it's a big API surface area that moves quickly, help us make it better and it will be better

[losheredos]

@mikehardy of course but I mean even opening issues are kinda contributing dont you think so? Or whenever we have a solution we just share and write it. But to directly work in bugs in open source projects, I dont know how people find time for that, especially if its without being paid?..

[mikehardy]

@losheredos note that this module specifically pays contributors! https://opencollective.com/react-native-firebase

Opening issues is at least a first step, and sharing solutions is huge - the userbase here is pretty good at that.

Other projects, yeah unless it provides personal educational value or direct benefit to a work project hard to argue it's easy to find time, but PRs are what makes open source work, however they are justified.

And you must realize how this

This firebase becoming so messed up.. Like how it can have so many bugs in every release..

sounds to those justifying the work as "makes me feel good to improve quality" ? Doesn't seem like the effect you'd want, on reflection

[losheredos]

@mikehardy Well its like a expression of boredom, since I already opened issue about previous versions in firebase.. Like everytime some package is updated you expect it to have less bugs then before right? But in this case it reveals unexpected bugs, so I just wanted to ask how it can happen this way very often? Plus not everyone have enough knowledge to be able to help in development of huge libraries.

I think we should have a "right" to complain sometimes about these kind of a bit weird situations and maybe you should be enough kind to understand these kind of comments and critics.

[mikehardy]

Complaining is a right in an open source world, sure. Just doesn't seem useful - or more to the point might be counterproductive - to me thus my press for defense of same.

Based on everything I read about the transition from v5 to v6 here I had no expectation it would have fewer issues out of the gate. I do believe it's converging stability though as more people have adopted it and most modules have been sussed out so far.

In the meantime, v5 does still exist.

[mikehardy]

@Bongroth Hello! this is an unrelated issue and by my count 16 people received notifications about your unrelated issue. It is also contains almost none of the information someone would need to troubleshoot it. However guessing at your problem: I think Android Studio just doesn't like the way auto-linking works in react-native 0.60+, and if you run a ./gradlew assembleDebug from the command line in the android folder before you open Android Studio will help, and if not, this would be a general react-native issue and you could ask there

[ivanzotov]

Updating RN from 0.60.4 to 0.60.5 fixed the issue for me

include ':@react-native-firebase_app'
project(':@react-native-firebase_app').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@react-native-firebase/app/android')

This workaround works. But why is still needed? This actually wasn't needed until I ran a yarn upgrade and pod update, while STAYING on RN 0.61.5.

@fungilation there is a new / separate issue with react-native-community/cli altering how it links scoped packages, and it is the source of your problem I believe: #3206 - workaround is to pin CLI at 3.0.3 as mentioned in that issue, until this is sorted out (should be quite soon)
