Problem with installation

[Angelk90]

Hi @prscX ,

I'm trying to install the module. But I'm having some problems. I created the file res / values / color.xml

build.gradle

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"

        compileSdkVersion = 27
        targetSdkVersion = 26
        supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
    }

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

@386sx @AibiTi @Angelk90 I had the same problem and I don't know why ( and i don't want to know why) But after i added this line to ./android/app/build.gradle It got fixed:

implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.0'

Hope it helps you.

@386sx But when open the component and after allow permissions app will close without any warning

[ricbermo]

Hello, I could get it working. So far I've just tested on Android, this is what I have:

_openFileChooser = async () => {
    try {
      const granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request(
        PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
        {
          title: 'Title',
          message: ' Access your files',
        }
      );
      if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
        RNFileSelector.Show({
          title: 'Select File',
          onDone: path => {
            alert(path);
            this.props.navigation.navigate('LoanUploadPreview');
          },
          onCancel: () => {
            alert('cancelled');
          },
        });
      }
    } catch (e) {
      console.log(e);
    }
  };

In android/app/build.gradle (part of it)

repositories {
    maven {
        url  "http://dl.bintray.com/lukaville/maven"
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(':react-native-file-selector')
    implementation fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1'
    implementation "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:${rootProject.ext.supportLibVersion}"
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.0.2'
    implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"  // From node_modules
}

In colors.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <color name="primary_dark">#000000</color>
    <color name="colorPrimary">#3F51B5</color>
    <color name="colorPrimaryDark">#303F9F</color>
    <color name="colorAccent">#FF4081</color>
</resources>

I also added <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> in my AndroidManifest but I'm not sure if that is actually needed.

I hope this helps, thank u!

@386sx But when open the component and after allow permissions app will close without any warning

Did you manage to fix it? I'm having same issue

use this <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> @shrolr

[tomasNajun]

Thanks to @cybercoder @ricbermo I fixed the issue following cybercoder comment and ricbermo comment. To resume:

1. I added this line implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1' in ./android/app/build.gradle So build.gradle looks like:

repositories {
    maven {
        url  "http://dl.bintray.com/lukaville/maven"
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(':react-native-file-selector')
    implementation fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"])
    implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1'
    implementation "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:${rootProject.ext.supportLibVersion}"
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.0.2'
    implementation "com.facebook.react:react-native:+"  // From node_modules
}

2. In android/app/src/main/res/values I created colors.xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <color name="primary_dark">#000000</color>
    <color name="colorPrimary">#3F51B5</color>
    <color name="colorPrimaryDark">#303F9F</color>
    <color name="colorAccent">#FF4081</color>
</resources>

3. And added permission <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> in AndroidManifest

1. And added permission <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> in AndroidManifest

I did what has been mentioned, still getting same error

[SunAnle]

I getting on your step, but still had same error.
