React-native: native_modules.gradle file is not downloading

[eriffat896]

I have created an app in react native for my project. When I copy my projects file in the app folder then run the app it said that in node_module react-redux is not exist then I installed react-redux using npm install [email protected] in my app folder after that when I run run-android command in command prompt for this project it is telling that -
Could not read script 'E:\AppFolder\MyApp\node_modules\@react-native-community\cli-platform-android\native_modules.gradle' as it does not exist. .

After that, I wiped the data of emulator and run run-android, but it is still giving me the same error and app is not installing in the emulator.

Here is the error which command prompt is displaying :

```info Starting JS server...

I got similar issue when android-cli part wasn't installed.
> Could not read script 'my-code-path\node_modules\@react-native-community\cli-platform-android\native_modules.gradle' as it does not exist.

I had to manually install the Android cli package.
npm i @react-native-community/cli-platform-android

Same issue here. Freshly installed.

Same issue here when first initiating Android Studio on project:

Could not read script '/Users/danale/Projects/NFIBEngage/node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle' as it does not exist.

When I looked inside node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android, sure enough there was no native_modules.gradle file.

I also found I had to manually npm i @react-native-community/cli-platform-android and then it worked.
