Layoutlib Bridge initialization failed

See original GitHub issue

Description I was not able to use the Paparazzi in my projects. I’m always getting the same error, it seems like Paparazzi is crashing during the rendering of my Composables. I’ve tried different types of combinations changing CompileSDK and lib version, but I’m always getting the same error.

Steps to Reproduce

Using compose version 1.1.1 and testing a simple button.

class PaparazziLinkButtonTest {
    @get:Rule
    val paparazzi = Paparazzi()

    @Test
    fun TestingSnap() {
        paparazzi.snapshot(name = "simpleLinkButton") {
            LinkButton(
                text = "Testing Paparazzi",
                onClick = {}
            )
        }
    }
}

It fails when I try to run the test with the message SEVERE: broken: Layoutlib Bridge initialization failed

Additional information:

  • Paparazzi Version: 1.0.0
  • OS: OS: MacOS 12.4.0
  • Compile SDK: 31
  • Gradle Version: 7.3.3
  • Android Gradle Plugin Version: 7.2.1
  • Compose version: 1.1.1

For the compileSdk 32 issue, you can backport Paparazzi to use earlier platform versions in snapshot tests, like so:

    environment = detectEnvironment().copy(
      platformDir = "${androidHome()}/platforms/android-32",
      compileSdkVersion = 32
    ),

Yep I’m stumped, it’s not a minimal reproducible project but here is my setup: https://github.com/AdamMc331/TOA/pull/146
