Error implementing @react-native-firebase/messaging on Android

[vallemar]

I am trying to implement @react-native-firebase/messaging, the required RN packages are as follows:

@react-native-firebase/app
@react-native-firebase/messaging

The error I have when building the application is the following:

If you need anything else let me know

@vallemar hey there :wave: react-native-firebase maintainer here. This looks more like https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/35210 then anything else, you might look into your react-native dependency to make sure it is resolving correctly based on the error message.

Hey @vallemar you probably missed doing the following configuration in before-plugins.gradle file: https://github.com/OpenNative/open-native/tree/main/packages/core#android-setup

I think the readme setup is a little confusing right now & will work on improving it hopefully as I get sometime. Thanks @mikehardy for hoping in to help!

Btw right now open-native is missing one api, Headless JS Tasks Service which need to be added before react-native-firebase/@notifee libraries can work with Open Native.

@ammarahm-ed oh! I had not seen this documentation. I had done directly what is in the general Readme.md of the project. If I think it would be good to change this doc and add everything necessary in the general, if not, I think that this will happen to many people. Thank you very much!
