Answer 1

This is working for me, Please follow the below steps:-

1) Stop Running Gradle

 $ cd RectNatoveProjectName & cd android  (Open your project and go to android folder)  
 $ ./gradlew --stop (Run this command to stop old running Gradle service )

2) Update the android app build gradle

project.ext.react = [
        nodeExecutableAndArgs : ["/usr/local/bin/node"]
];

3) Get Node details

$ which node 

> (Result will be like "/usr/username/.nvm/versions/node/v10.7.0/bin/node")

4) Link node (very imp step copy the above result in step 3)

- ln -s /usr/username/.nvm/versions/node/v10.7.0/bin/node /usr/local/bin/node

5) If Step - 4 return file exist - then to go the folder /usr/local/bin/ and delete the "node" file and perform the step -4 again.

6) If Step - 4 run successfully then this node issue will be resolved.

I had the same problem, the solution was :

cd to yourApp/android folder

run this

./gradlew --stop

and then

./gradlew assembleRelease

This gonna build your app.

After build is done, go to see your application(apk).

android\app\build\outputs\apk\release

I had the same problem. In my case, after a few hours, I saw this on GitHub: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-react-native/issues/578#issuecomment-503428032. I had renamed the project on Sentry. If you renamed the project on, update the android/sentry.properties and ios/sentry.properties file.

defaults.url=https://sentry.io/
defaults.org=yourorg
defaults.project=newprojectname
auth.token=                                                                    

                                                        
            

Answer 4

For me the creating the bundle failed, but I noticed this comment by Sahin Elidemir:

just ./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleReleaseJsAndAssets saved me.

It almost worked for me. What worked at the end was (notice the app:, which for me it fails without, and a clean for good measure):

./gradlew clean app:assembleRelease -x bundleReleaseJsAndAssets

Answer 5

The steps above really helped.

Here's the scripts that work for us with react-native 0.55.3.

Run the android-build command locally or CI to generate an APK.

/packages.json (react-native):

"android-bundle": "react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res",
"android-release-fix": "node ./android-release-gradle-fix.js",
"android-build": "yarn killbin && yarn android-clean && yarn android-release-fix && yarn android-bundle && cd android && ./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleReleaseJsAndAssets --info",
"android-clean": "cd android && ./gradlew clean",
"killbin": "rm -rf ./node_modules/.bin",

android-release-gradle-fix.js:

const fs = require('fs')

// Fix issues with Android resources like duplicate files
// CI: run install with --unsafe-perm option
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47084810/react-native-android-duplicate-file-error-when-generating-apk
try {
        var curDir = __dirname
        var rootDir = process.cwd()

        var file = `${rootDir}/node_modules/react-native/react.gradle`
        var dataFix = fs.readFileSync(`${curDir}/android-react-gradle-fix`, 'utf8')
        var data = fs.readFileSync(file, 'utf8')

        var doLast = "doLast \{"
        if (data.indexOf(doLast) !== -1) {
            throw "Already fixed."
        }

        var result = data.replace(/                \/\/ Set up inputs and outputs so gradle can cache the result/g, dataFix);
        fs.writeFileSync(file, result, 'utf8')
        console.log('Done')
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error)
    }

doLast {
    def moveFunc = { resSuffix ->
        File originalDir = file("${resourcesDir}/drawable-${resSuffix}")
        if (originalDir.exists()) {
            File destDir = file("${resourcesDir}/drawable-${resSuffix}-v4")
            ant.move(file: originalDir, tofile: destDir)

I now this is late. may be this will help somebody.

For me it i had to upgrade to latest react-native-sentry.

apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native-sentry/sentry.gradle"

was causing problem
