Mipmap/icon not found

Environment:

• Plugin version: “3.0.0-alpha.50”,
• Platform: Android (Ionic 4)
• OS version: 8.0+
• Device manufacturer and model: any
• Running in Simulator: No
• Cordova version (cordova -v): 9.0.0 (cordova-lib@9.0.1)
• Cordova platform version (cordova platform ls): android 8.0.0
• Plugin configuration options: default
• Link to your project: private

Context:

I get failure when I try to release the apk for publishing, I get the following error:

Expected Behavior

Compile without errors in cordova 9.0

Actual Behavior

I get failure for mipmap/icon not found.

Possible Fix

It’s happening because on latest cordova versions the icon isn’t compiled anymore for mipmap/icon.png but for mipmap/ic_launcher.png.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create an application using Ionic 4 (latest)
2. Add this plugin to the application
3. Run: ionic cordova build android --release

Debug logs

@n0minal Hi, I reopen this issue because your fix is just insanely time consuming.

For the app to work you need to change what is causing the problem (aka the mimap ressource)

So as you wrote it :

--variable ICON="@mipmap/ic_launcher" \
--variable SMALL_ICON="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

1. The file to change is in : projectRoot/platforms/android/android.json

2. Here find the line “res/xml/authenticator.xml”

3. now change the @mipmap/icon for @mipmap/ic_launcher there (needs 2 modifications only in the xml object line)

change :

"xml": "<account-authenticator android:accountType=\"@string/mauron85_bgloc_account_type\" android:icon=\"@mipmap/icon\" android:label=\"@string/app_name\" android:smallIcon=\"@mipmap/icon\" xmlns:android=\"http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android\" />",

to :

"xml": "<account-authenticator android:accountType=\"@string/mauron85_bgloc_account_type\" android:icon=\"@mipmap/ic_launcher\" android:label=\"@string/app_name\" android:smallIcon=\"@mipmap/ic_launcher\" xmlns:android=\"http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android\" />",

It should work, also this should be fixed in the plugin directly.
