React-native-i18n: Execution failed for task ':react-native-i18n:verifyReleaseResources'

[tregismoreira]

I'm trying to build a release version of my app but I'm getting this error:

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':react-native-i18n:verifyReleaseResources'.
> com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: Failed to execute aapt

I already checked the linked libraries, sdk version etc. Did anyone get this error before?

SDK version: 26
Build tools: 26.0.2

Full stacktrace

Any solution or workaround?

This fix it for me

This usually happen when you are using different compileSDKVersion and BuildToolsVersion in my case i have to change it in the react-native-i18n folder inside the node-modules

Go to node_modules/react-native-i18n/android/build.gradle

Edit the compileSDKVersion and BuildToolsVersion to merge yours in /android/build.gradle

And to @author it will be good to use the constant value in the project like its been done in android/app/build.gradle

for example
compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:${rootProject.ext.supportLibVersion}"
if possible

[gianpaj]

Another workaround is to add this in your root build.grade file:

subprojects { subproject ->
    afterEvaluate{
        if((subproject.plugins.hasPlugin('android') || subproject.plugins.hasPlugin('android-library'))) {
            android {
                compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
                buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
            }
        }
    }
}

@gianpaj Thanks , That work better and also prevent touching the library files

Should be fixed in the last version (allowing android SDK versions customization)

@zoontek I upgraded to 2.0.14 and removed the code above (subprojects...), but got the same error message.

I had to add it again to make a build. Note debug builds don't have this issue, only release builds.
