Build error with cordova-plugin-background-fetch

adamrz0 · December 8, 2020, 5:03pm

I’m lost with this build issue I’m seeing and even as a paying customer have yet to hear back from the Ionic team about the issue. Anyone in the community seen this before or have any advice? I’d like to avoid removing the plugin in question.

Thanks in advance

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ‘:capacitor-cordova-android-plugins:bundleDebugAar’.

Direct local .aar file dependencies are not supported when building an AAR. The resulting AAR would be broken because the classes and Android resources from any local .aar file dependencies would not be packaged in the resulting AAR. Previous versions of the Android Gradle Plugin produce broken AARs in this case too (despite not throwing this error). The following direct local .aar file dependencies of the :capacitor-cordova-android-plugins project caused this error: /builds/adamrz/healthkitty/node_modules/cordova-plugin-background-fetch/src/android/libs/tsbackgroundfetch/tsbackgroundfetch-0.4.5.aar

Looks like the plugin maintainers released a fix for this back in June.

# CHANGELOG

## [6.1.1] &mdash; 2020-07-23
[Fixed] Modify `plugin.xml` to copy android `libs` to `platforms/android/libs` rather than referencing from `/plugins/src/android/libs` -- this was not possible with *PhoneGap Build*.

## [6.1.0] &mdash; 2020-06-12
* [Fixed][Android] * `com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0` no longer allows "*direct local aar dependencies*".  Re-package `tslocationmanager.aar` as a maven repo and add `maven url` in `build.gradle`.

## [6.0.8] &mdash; 2020-05-27
* [Fixed] Android could fail to restart events when configured with forceAlarmManager: true.
* [Fixed] Android check `wakeLock.isHeld()` before executing `wakeLock.release()`.

## [6.0.7] &mdash; 2020-05-13
* [Fixed][Android] Update gradle file for Capacitor-detection relative to `$projectDir` instead of `$userDir`.

## [6.0.6] &mdash; 2020-04-09
* [Fixed] [Android] Fixed bug related to `6.0.5` referencing non existent `BackgroundGeolocationHeadlessTask`.  Define class-name as a hard-coded String instead.

## [6.0.5] &mdash; 2020-04-09
* [Changed] Don't install default `BackgroundGeolocationHeadlessTask.java`
