Cordova-plugin-firebase: Build Error: Failed to execute aapt

In the same boat. We've been trying to fix this for 6 hours now.

Firebase team made braking changes again on June 17 update
https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#update_-_june_17_2019

Presumably this caused the problem..

Same problem

I am also having the same issue, last minute I couldn't build my android application, I lost my whole day to find this Cordova firebase plugin is raising the issue.

I tried add
com.google.gms.googleservices.GoogleServicesPlugin.config.disableVersionCheck = true
to build.gradle but new issue occur :(

error: resource android:attr/fontVariationSettings not found.

error: resource android:attr/ttcIndex not found.

@https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase/issues/1083#issuecomment-503224816

this work for me!

ionic cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-firebase
ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase#GH-1057-April-05-android-build-issue
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-android-adapter
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova platform add [email protected]

This has solved my issues for today, most likely because it uses an older version of the firebase plugin

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error [ERR_UNHANDLED_ERROR]: Unhandled error. (The platform “android” does not appear to be a valid cordova platform. It is missing API.js. android not supported.)

I am getting above error while running build for cordova android 8.

I am getting above error while running build for cordova android 8.

rsi

Works for me, thanks! but "ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-android-adapter" doesn't exists
this is what i've done

1. ionic cordova platform rm android
2. ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-firebase
3. ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase#GH-1057-April-05-android-build-issue
4. ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx
5. ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter
6. ionic cordova platform add android
   Anyway, thanks!

Give this a try https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib/releases

I can not add the April version:

Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.

@herduin give this a try https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib/releases

We are maintaining a fork and we have fixed this issue for both cordova-android 7.x & 8.x.

I resolved with this commands:

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-firebase
npm install cordova@9
ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase#GH-1057-April-05-android-build-issue
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

Just changing "compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:+'" to "compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.2.1'" works fine too. Thanks.

Guys thanks for working fast on this one. The build is succeeded but no APK is generated.
Any ideas pls ?

Actually got an error

A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.

Could not read script '/platforms/android/cordova-plugin-firebase/starter-build.gradle ' as it does not exist.

Anybody else has same error ?

I checked, the file actually exists , not sure why it cannot read it

Something needs to be worked on the attr/fontVariationSettings and attr/ttcIndex in values.xml. Is this related to compileSDK 28? Looks like we can't update to SDK 28 which puts other errors, but keeping 27 will search for the values in values.xml which is not there!

Command failed with exit code 1 Error output: <home_path>/.gradle/caches/transforms-1/files-1.1/customtabs-27.1.1.aar/3dce91a2380bf657ee372a601e1fa4bb/res/values/values.xml:7:5-71: AAPT: error: resource android:attr/fontVariationSettings not found.

My bad. I had cordova 8. Upgrading to Cordova CLI : 9.0.0 ([email protected]) fixed however something is changed the way firebase is being called I think

I am doing
import { Firebase } from '@ionic-native/firebase'
or even
import { Firebase } from 'firebase'

but it is giving error like
Property 'initializeApp' does not exist on type 'typeof'
firebase.initializeApp(config);

Any ideas ?

@accerpcom when you are writing import { Firebase } from 'firebase', 'firebase' is actually the official JS library of Google Firebase.

While @ionic-native/firebase is the Typescript wrapper over the JS code of this cordova plugin. So you are mixing up two things.

So here is the reason it broke:

Hi! I solved the error with the following steps:

cordova: 8.0.0
node: 8.11.0
ionic: 3.20.0
android: 8.0.0
targetBuild: 28

FIRST

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-firebase

remove folder node_modules

IN SEQUENCE

npm i
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebase-lib
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter
ionic cordova platform add android@8

Resolved 100% for me. I was there 2 days ago with this problem and this was the solution.
APP build successful 100%. APK running successfully as well.

Hope this helps

Works for me, thanks! but "ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-android-adapter" doesn't exists
this is what i've done

1. ionic cordova platform rm android
2. ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-firebase
3. ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase#GH-1057-April-05-android-build-issue
4. ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx
5. ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter
6. ionic cordova platform add android
   Anyway, thanks!

I followed all these steps and still, I am not able to get the build to create/run. Build Fails with Following Error:

Hey @viniciusbarbosa, by using your solution and a tweaking little bit in Intercom plugin configuration Which has the following under platform/android/cordova-plugin-intercom/app-intercom.gradle.
`
dependencies {

    // classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.+'

    if (pushType == 'fcm') {

        // classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.2.0'

    }
}

`
After commenting them out I am able to create build successfully. but When I run it in device, app crash before starting without any error. Any Idea what is happening?

Hi, @JeetuChoudhary!

When you ran: ionic cordova platform add android @ 8, have all the plugins been installed successfully?

The androidx-adapter plugin should solve all compatibility problems and internal dependency of other plugins.

To test, remove the cordova-plugin-intercom plugin from package.json, repeat all the steps and see if the build succeeds.

I took a look at the cordova-plugin-intercom and it cites to be compatible with ionic 1 and 2, what version of its ionic? And what version of the plugin are you using?

yes, all the plugins are installed successfully and then I removed platform, plugin, node_module, and package-lock.json. Then repeated the steps you provided.

I have "cordova-plugin-intercom": "7.0.0", with "@ionic-native/intercom": "^5.8.0". IOS requires the latest version of intercom to create the build otherwise it causes the problem and it works well in IOS with Ionic 3. It also works in android with ionic 3 if you have android version >[email protected] with Ionic 3. I have it in one of other project but that doesn't have firebase plugin so it works fine.

I will also test after removing the cordova-plugin-intercom plugin from package.json,

This firebase plugin is breaking my Two projects and making it hard for me. In one of my another project by using your steps, it still doesn't create the build. And that project doesn't have intercom but have analytics.
In that project, it gives the following error while building.

`BUILD FAILED in 8s

or use tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)`
and I have added the minSdk version to android/app/build.gradle. but no luck

Thanks for your time and help

Try again the described steps, however note, if your android version is 7.1.4, then you should use: cordova plugin add [email protected]

See more details here: https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib

Try and tell me what happens

@viniciusbarbosa Build is successfull but Android SDK is failing with the below message

move minsdkversion to build files and sync project

@nsksaisaravana When you run it from the android studio it asks to do that. Run through command line it will work

hello....

cordova plugin firebasex-lib
cordova plugin androidx
cordova plugin androidx-adapter

..

i had tried solution in github almost but i failed.

please help

Hi, @toFreshMilk.

If you use the 3 plugins at the same time you will have problems.
cordova plugin firebase
cordova plugin firebasex
cordova firebasex-lib plugin

The attempt I succeeded, was with the cordova plugin firebasex-lib.
It is important to follow the order I have described here (https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase/issues/1084#issuecomment-505420901),
more details here (https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib).

MinSdk = 19 and TargetSdk = 28
cordova: 8.0.0
node: 8.11.0
ionic: 3.20.0
android: 8.0.0
targetBuild: 28

Hope this helps

minsdkversion

Hi, @nsksaisaravana!
MinSdk = 19 e TargetSdk = 28.

Try with this

Is it possible to use this library (cordova-plugin-firebasex-lib) in ionic2 using typescript? How would this import look? Sorry for the question. 😕

ionic cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-firebase
ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase#GH-1057-April-05-android-build-issue
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-android-adapter
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova platform add [email protected]

This has solved my issues for today, most likely because it uses an older version of the firebase plugin

Are you using ionic2? How to import js plugin into typscript?

Hi, @toFreshMilk.

If you use the 3 plugins at the same time you will have problems.
cordova plugin firebase

Yes, you can use this. Can you confirm your cordova environment versions

Hi, @leodiano!

You need to replace the cordova-plugin-firebase plugin with cordova-plugin-firebase-lib, and also use androidx and androidx-adapter.
Please follow my instructions for this comment: https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase/issues/1084#issuecomment-505420901)

According to your version of the android android, see the version of firebase-lib that you should install. Follow here: https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib

Try exactly the steps outlined in my quoted comment and you will succeed. I went through this for 2 days after the Google update and finally found this solution stable. I've been able to replicate it several times.

Try and tell me. If you have questions just say it.

@viniciusbarbosa I sent an invitation to your linkedin. Leonardo Calazans. If you can help me. I'm 3 days into it.

@viniciusbarbosa By uninstalling the intercom, it works. So now I have removed the intercom plugin and manually configured it in android.
Thanks for your help and time!

So here is the reason it broke:
https://github.com/arnesson/cordova-plugin-firebase/blob/5a3c08d4e2e9d372894d778ca8c8c3d7c3d72d0d/src/android/build.gradle#L20

Google Firebase Update - June 17, 2019
https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android#version_1621

The following libraries are updated with this release:
Authentication version 18.0.0

We found a way to resolve this, and remain on target SDK version 27.

1. hard clean: delete platforms/android
2. ionic cordova build android (fails)
3. update platforms/android/project.properties:

cordova.system.library.3=com.google.android.gms:play-services-tagmanager:16.0.8
cordova.system.library.4=com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8
cordova.system.library.5=com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0
cordova.system.library.6=com.google.firebase:firebase-config:16.4.1
cordova.system.library.7=com.google.firebase:firebase-perf:16.2.4

1. update platforms/android/app/build.gradle (dependencies ~ln 266)

    compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-tagmanager:16.0.8"
    compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.8"
    compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.5.0"
    compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-config:16.4.1"
    compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-perf:16.2.4"

1. update platforms/android/cordova-plugin-firebase/cloud-build.gradle (in dependencies)

    compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.2.1'

1. ionic cordova build android
   OR
   cd platforms/android
./gradlew build

this works me tnx!!

@viniciusbarbosa @JeetuChoudhary I followed you guys recommended steps, it is building fine in Android but notification is not working.

I build it in IOS, it skipped the plugin (cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebase-lib) and it is expecting the cordova version 9.0.

@nsksaisaravana what's your cordova version?
if your cordova <= 8.1.1, then use cordova plugin add [email protected].
See more in https://github.com/wizpanda/cordova-plugin-firebase-lib/

@viniciusbarbosa Thanks for your immediate info, unfortunately, it is not working. I have upgraded the Cordova to 9 as well but no luck.

Notification is not working.

Cordova-plugin-firebasex

Thank you! I tried @ChronouSphere https://github.com/ChronouSphere
steps first but I was still on [email protected] and when I installed
android@8 the build completed successfully 😄

Did not work for me :(, another idea?

@viniciusbarbosa Thanks a for your great help. I was checking in the Android SDK, it was not working properly but I deployed in the store and it is working properly.

You saved me many days. @viniciusbarbosa

@nsksaisaravana You could try https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-plugin-firebase instead of firebase-lib

@nsksaisaravana

Look at a version of your Cordova-ios and check which version of the plugin you should install

So here is the reason it broke:
