I have a React Native version 0.60.4 app where i have installed react-native-firebase version "^5.2.3". Now when i give the react-native run-android it shows the following error:
I can not link react-native-firebase as it is not supported in react-native 0.60.4. I have tried running cd android && gradlew clean && cd .. && react-native run-android but no luck. Here's my android/app/build.gradle :
apply plugin: "com.android.application"

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Try to remove implementation project(':react-native-firebase') from build.gralde file. According to new Auto-linking process there is no need to implement project in app/build.gradle.
And also make sure no modules linked in settings.gradle like this:
rootProject.name = 'MyApp'
apply from: file("../node_modules/#react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle"); applyNativeModulesSettingsGradle(settings)
include ':app'
If there is any try to unlink module through react-native unlink react-native-firebase if you are using react-native >= 0.60

Answer 2

My solution is install again
npm i react-native-firebase#5.2.3
You need to check react-native-firebase exist or not in folder node_modules

Answer 3

this may happen when you deleted the package from the node-modules folder or you made a wrong declaration of react-native-firebase in package.json.
to resolve this problem :
delete react-native-firebase from package.json file.
delete the react-native-firebase package from node-modules(if you want to keep your node modules packages clear ).
reinstall your dependency again:
npm I react-native-firebase
.
make sure you have no duplicated packages with the same rule in your node-module folder .
