Cannot build android flavors with a Development build

Summary

I was following this documentation to configure a development/staging/production variants in a bare project, it works fine with iOS but not for android.

As soon as I add the flavors to my build.gradle I can’t run my application on android anymore.

Managed or bare workflow? If you have made manual changes inside of the ios/ or android/ directories in your project, the answer is bare!

bare

Thanks for the extra details @dogfootruler-kr , and for providing a repo. I’ve been able to reproduce the error and track down the source. We should have a fix out in the next release of the expo-dev-client package, but if this is blocking you in the meantime, you can add the fix from #16799 locally using patch-package.

Hello @esamelson , sorry I completely forgot to share the error logs…

My eas.json looks like this:

{
  "cli": {
    "version": ">= 0.47.0"
  },
  "build": {
    "development": {
      "node": "14.19.1",
      "releaseChannel": "development",
      "developmentClient": true,
      "distribution": "internal",
      "android": {
        "gradleCommand": ":app:assembleDevelopmentDebug"
      }
    },
    "staging": {
      "node": "14.19.1",
      "releaseChannel": "staging",
      "distribution": "internal",
      "android": {
        "gradleCommand": ":app:assembleStagingRelease"
      }
    },
    "production": {
      "node": "14.19.1",
      "releaseChannel": "production",
      "android": {
        "gradleCommand": ":app:bundleProductionRelease"
      }
    }
  }
}

and I added the flavors in my app/build.gradle like this:

    flavorDimensions "env"
    productFlavors {
        production {
            dimension "env"
            applicationId 'com.myapp'
        }
        staging {
            dimension "env"
            applicationId 'com.myappstg'
        }
        development {
            dimension "env"
            applicationId 'com.myappdev'
        }
    }

and the error I get after running eas build -p android --profile development --local :
