react-native run-android failed

Describe your environment

• React-Native version: 0.56.0
• Platform: Android
• Android Device & Simulator have same problem
• react-native-languages version: 2.0.1
• Android Studio version: 3.1.3
• Buildtools version 25.0.3 is installed

How to repeat issue and example

What I did?

• Install and link this library
• Implement the translation and get it works on iOS side running in simulator
• Now on Android, the build is failed with command react-native run-android

Expected

• The build command not failed and be able to run on Android simulator

Actually happen

• The build is failed

What I try to fix?

• Change compileSdkVersion, buildToolsVersion, and targetSdkVersion in android/app/build.gradle and run the command react-native run-android but still gets the same error.

Solution

I think after change compileSdkVersion, buildToolsVersion, and targetSdkVersion to match this library setup would fix the issue, but after change it stills fail. Maybe I need to somehow rebuild Android gradle? (Sorry, I’m not experience with Android).

@zoontek - Upgraded to version 3.0.0 build on Android stills fail but with different error.

I try modify as @amfolio suggests, it fixes the error and be able to build successfully.

Got it to build by upgrading gradle.

// android/build.gradle

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.0-alpha03'
}

// android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties
