Android build fail

I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this issue for two days now but can’t seem to figure out how to resolve it. I’ve been trying to find any reference related to this error but can’t seem to find any. The following are my configurations:

RN 0.54.4
tipsi stripe 5.2.4

android/app/build.gradle

android {
  compileSdkVersion 27
  buildToolsVersion '27.0.3'

  defaultConfig {
    ...
    targetSdkVersion 27
    ...
  }
  ...
  dependencies {
    implementation project(':tipsi-stripe')
    implementation "com.android.support:support-v13:27.1.1"
    implementation "com.android.support:design:27.1.1"
    implementation "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1"
  }

When I try to run react-native run-android the following error occurs:

> Task :app:transformDexArchiveWithExternalLibsDexMergerForDebug FAILED
D8: Program type already present: com.google.android.gms.internal.zzdlx

How do you resolve this error? Any help is much appreciated.

Hi @isnifer , sorry for the very much delayed response because I had to divert much of my time to other needed feature stories on my app. Fortunately, I fixed the issue by setting up the project-wide properties on top-level build.gradle, just like in the example (which I’ve missed):

ext {
    buildToolsVersion = "26.0.2"
    firebaseVersion = "11.8.0"
    googlePlayServicesVersion = "11.8.0"
}

Nice!
