I’ve been working with Ionic’s Capacitor js as a replacement for Cordova. One thing I just stumbled over is trying to setup a development enviornment for a plugin.
I was getting errors from android studio similar to:
android studio cannot resolve symbol com.getcapacitor.Plugin
and when running ./gradlew build
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Could not determine the dependencies of task ':verifyReleaseResources'.
> Could not resolve all task dependencies for configuration ':releaseRuntimeClasspath'.
> Could not resolve project :capacitor-android.
Required by:
project :
> No matching configuration of project :capacitor-android was found. The consumer was configured to find a runtime of a component, as well as attribute 'com.android.build.api.attributes.BuildTypeAttr' with value 'release' but:
- None of the consumable configurations have attributes.
The trick was to run npm install in the plugin directory
