im having the same error when i added nativescript-firebase-plugin on my nativescript-vue project

[cristianmiranda]

I'm having the same issue with firebase. Any updates?

[cristianmiranda]

UPDATE: I was having this issue with Android API 23, I tested on 26 and everything worked fine.

[cristianmiranda]

UPDATE 2: I ended up having the same issue on another pc while trying to run the same project on the same Android API emulator. I finally fixed it adding this in my app.gradle:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.0.0'
}

Hope it helps!

Thanks @cristianmiranda ! I was struggling with the same issue for the past week and your suggestion worked perfectly!

I've successfully ran the demo, so going to close this. Issues with dependencies and different native libs being loaded via gradle is a tricky situation and has to be handled case by case unfortunately. You can get into some very complex gradle logic to handle these scenarios even.
