React Native Unable to find a matching configuration of project (Build only)

Question

My react native build works fine when running react-native run-android or cd android && ./gradlew assembleDebug. But I'll get the following for all every react native package I have installed when running ./gradlew assembleRelease

> Could not resolve project :react-native-fbsdk.

Upon getting more details by running ./gradlew assembleRelease --info I found that this message is printed for all of my problematic packages:

file or directory '/path/to/my/project/node_modules/react-native-fcm/android/libs', not found

Looking in this folder, there is no "libs" folder, and settings.gradle does not tell it to point to a "libs" folder.

include ':react-native-fcm'
project(':react-native-fcm').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-fcm/android')

Should something be generating this folder? I do have compile fileTree(dir: "libs", include: ["*.jar"]) in my app/build.gradle.

For reference here are some important files:

Update: I created a clean project with react-native init and ran the build and it created the same problem, so I guess it's something specific to my environment or there is some kind of temporary problem with the dependencies.

Update: Built everything on a Windows machine. Same problem.

Update: I have been able to get certain versions of this working, but not the main project. It might be due to these warnings:

Configuration 'compile' in project ':react-native-code-push' is deprecated. Use 'implementation' instead.
WARNING: The specified Android SDK Build Tools version (23.0.1) is ignored, as it is below the minimum supported version (26.0.2) for Android Gradle Plugin 3.0.1.
Android SDK Build Tools 26.0.2 will be used.
To suppress this warning, remove "buildToolsVersion '23.0.1'" from your build.gradle file, as each version of the Android Gradle Plugin now has a default version of the build tools.

Answer 1

Upgrade Gradle and add matchingFallbacks to your non-standard build type. Your libraries do not know what build type to match.

Eg.

buildType {       ...       mySpecialRelease {           ...           matchingFallbacks = ['release', 'debug']       } } 

Answer 2

Upgrade your gradle to a vesion 4 or above

How to update gradle in android studio

then copy paste

 matchingFallbacks = ['release', 'debug'] 

in

android {     ...     }     buildTypes {         release {             minifyEnabled false             matchingFallbacks = ['release', 'debug']             proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'          }     } } 

Answer 3

in my case, the problem solved by the following steps:

1. npm i

2. react-native link

hope this help anyone facing this issue.

Answer 4

It was all working fine suddenly I started getting this error on android -

Unable to find a matching configuration of project :react-native-fbsdk: None of the consumable configurations have attributes.

For some reason, I am not sure what had happened but under node_modules -> react-native-fbsdk -> android. There were no files in it.

Running npm install react-native-fbsdk solved the issue for me.
