See this link (as I suspected) has the POM file and no jar.
Important Notes:
- I am using latest version of react native ... v0.57.3 and also latest version of react-native-cli ... v2.0.1 at this time.
- I have Java 11 installed in my computer.
- I am using latest gradle release at this time ... v4.10.2
- I am using Mac OSX Mojave
The distribution url is:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.2-all.zip
Here is the error
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'AwesomePlacesApp'.
> Could not resolve all artifacts for configuration ':classpath'.
> Could not find aapt2-proto.jar (com.android.tools.build:aapt2-proto:0.3.1).
Searched in the following locations:
https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/aapt2-proto/0.3.1/aapt2-proto-0.3.1.jar
It seems like AAPT2(Android Asset Packaging Tool 2) is available in Google's maven repository.
You need to include google() under repositories in build.gradle file as shown:
buildscript {
repositories {
google() // here
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0-alpha12'
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
google() // and here
jcenter()
}
Take a look at this link for more in detail.
Note: Order also matters, if jcenter() is above google() it fails.
This seems to be a jCenter issue. Until the issue is fixed you can temporarily change Android Gradle Plugin version to 3.1.0
within root build.gradle
file:
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0'
// other imports here...
}
I changed the order of this file: android/build.gradle
For me is working with this order:
buildscript {
ext {
buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
minSdkVersion = 16
compileSdkVersion = 27
targetSdkVersion = 26
supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
}
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
google()
jcenter()
maven {
url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
}
}
}
task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
gradleVersion = '4.4'
distributionUrl = distributionUrl.replace("bin", "all")
}
Project -> Open Module Setting -> "Project Structure - Project"
Check your Android Plugin Repository and Default Library Repository.
Note: google(), jcenter - its default value in my project.
You have to add google() to repositories in build.gradle file and put it at first position:
...
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
...
In my case the problem was the repository order.
This question's answer In build.gradle change position of google() and place it first:
This is how it was before, if you don't have google() add it as the first one in the buildscript:
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
google()
}
change to,
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
