Fix multidex on Android

[odnamrataizem]

This should fix #30.

The script is currently setting every package inside com.android.support to the SDK version number. Some of them, like the Multidex ones, are on a different version number, but #28 only partially addressed this: there are more Multidex packages whose version numbers differ from the SDK one, e.g. multidex-instrumentation, so I made a slight change to the way the script looks for them.

We'll go with PR #32

Published as v1.0.2

sorry for the delay

@DickSmith @shiv19 -

Seems like it fails to build (debug and release).

this is the error I get:

Failed to build plugin nativescript-imagecropper :

@shabib3 Yeah, that's been the trouble with these, there doesn't seem to be a way to make the setup compatible for both 3.x and 4.x. Either 4.x works and 3.x has conflicts; or 3.x works and 4.x is missing dependencies.

Based on your error, I'm guessing you're on {N} 4.x.

In speaking with @shiv19 , the easiest solution may be to let the current package be the last 3.x-compatible, and then push a new build that is compatible with 4.x-only.

Trying to get this to work for both results in having to do very convoluted stuff, which then led to the multidex issues, and potentially many others too.

For now locally you can change it to:

dependencies {
  implementation 'com.github.yalantis:ucrop:2.2.2-native'
}

Ok so I'll try to add this to app.gradleand see if it works. Let me know if there is any update about the issue solution :)

@DickSmith -

Adding implementation 'com.github.yalantis:ucrop:2.2.2-native' to my app.gradle didn't do any change...

[DickSmith]

@shabib3 Sorry, what I meant was to edit the node_module file directly and see if that works.
