This seems to have happened out of the blue today and have been unable to build my project since then.

Is there any code involved?

the issue is not with this plugin but maybe with the cli or @nativescript/android. try to update them or ask on discors

[ketuvin]

@msl2000 Please let me know when you manage to fix it. Updating the cli and @nativescript/android did not solve the problem for me.

[farfromrefug]

@ketuvin @msl2000 The issue is on the cli. You can fix it by installing npm i -g nativescript@next. Hope it wont break anything else...

@farfromrefug it seems to be related so I am not creating a separate issue, but with the new cli using gradle 7+ I am getting:

Script '.../node_modules/@nativescript-community/ui-material-core/platforms/android/include.gradle' line: 7
A problem occurred evaluating script.
Could not find method compile() for arguments [androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.2.0] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.

Command ./gradlew failed with exit code 1

@nikoTM makes sure all.plugins are up to date and clean everything

Getting potentially same issue as well.

have ran update on all plugins etc and still error appears

[farfromrefug]

@liamcharmer must be a clean issue. It is working fine with gradle 7.

The issue is with NS cli. here is the workaround without updating anything else.

1. Go to ns cli installation directory
2. Search for getRuntimeGradleVersions method in android-plugin-build-service.js
3. add runtimeGradleVersions = yield this.getGradleVersions(projectRuntimeVersion); line just after const projectRuntimeVersion = platformData.platformProjectService.getFrameworkVersion(projectData);. e.g.

    getRuntimeGradleVersions(projectDir) {
        return __awaiter(this, void 0, void 0, function* () {
            let runtimeGradleVersions = null;
            if (projectDir) {
                const projectData = this.$projectDataService.getProjectData(projectDir);
                const platformData = this.$platformsDataService.getPlatformData(this.$devicePlatformsConstants.Android, projectData);
                const projectRuntimeVersion = platformData.platformProjectService.getFrameworkVersion(projectData);
		runtimeGradleVersions = yield this.getGradleVersions(projectRuntimeVersion);
                this.$logger.trace(`Got gradle versions ${JSON.stringify(runtimeGradleVersions)} from runtime v${projectRuntimeVersion}`);
            }
            if (!runtimeGradleVersions) {
                const latestRuntimeVersion = yield this.getLatestRuntimeVersion();
                runtimeGradleVersions = yield this.getGradleVersions(latestRuntimeVersion);
                this.$logger.trace(`Got gradle versions ${JSON.stringify(runtimeGradleVersions)} from the latest runtime v${latestRuntimeVersion}`);
            }
            return runtimeGradleVersions || {};
        });
    }

Additional info (For windows)

1. NS installed globally- android-plugin-build-service.js path for windows- %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\nativescript\lib\services
2. In case you are maintaining the Node version via NVM then search under %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\nvm

@rmn81 thanks for the workaround. Wouldn't that mean that your CLI is not up to date?

[rmn81]

@farfromrefug Yep, my CLI is not up to date. First I tried to update CLI but after updating it, there were some build issues. So, right now I can't use the latest CLI.

[NathanWalker]

Possible to share any detail on the build issue with latest cli?
