Build of Android APK failed with Push Notification and Badge in project

Hello,

I’ve added to ionic2 application project Push Notification:

$ ionic cordova plugin add phonegap-plugin-push
$ npm install --save @ionic-native/push

Which successfully builds android apk:

$ ionic cordova build

but if I add Badge:

$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-badge
$ npm install --save @ionic-native/badge

and Camera plugin:

$ npm install @ionic-native/camera --save
$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-camera

I got error with previous Push Notification installs in project, otherwise if I add it to separate project without Push Notification, it also successfully builds android apk, but with both in one project I got this:

Execution failed for task ‘:app:transformDexArchiveWithDexMergerForDebug’.

com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: com.android.dex.DexException: Multiple dex files define Lme/leolin/shortcutbadger/impl/LGHomeBadger;

Not sure what can be cause, advice would be helpful:

hi , check your Config:

Hello,

Not sure if it is solution with Ionic2 application, but I found this guide on Adroid Studio: Enable Multidex for Apps with Over 64K Methods.

I’ve added :

    minSdkVersion 21
    targetSdkVersion 26
    multiDexEnabled true

inside platform/android/app/build.gradle:


android {

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 26
        multiDexEnabled true

        versionCode cdvVersionCode ?: new BigInteger("" + privateHelpers.extractIntFromManifest("versionCode"))
        applicationId privateHelpers.extractStringFromManifest("package")

        if (cdvMinSdkVersion != null) {
            minSdkVersion cdvMinSdkVersion
        }
    }
...

and compile ‘com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1’ at the end:

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
    // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES START
    implementation(project(path: ":CordovaLib"))
    compile "com.android.support:support-v13:26.+"
    compile "me.leolin:ShortcutBadger:1.1.17@aar"
    compile "com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.6.2"
    compile "com.android.support:support-v4:24.1.1+"
    compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
    // SUB-PROJECT DEPENDENCIES END
}

but this line automatically removes during build and now error is:

same error please help me

@bhuvana022

Hello,

Try first

$ cordova clean

and then

$ ionic cordova build

You could try to use Capacitor: https://capacitor.ionicframework.com/

already tried but same error display.

@bhuvana022

In my case this particular error was fixed only with $ cordova clean before $ ionic cordova build.

Try to add at the end of your build.gradle yourApp/platforms/android/app/build.gradle and in this case also don’t forget $ cordova clean before $ ionic cordova build.:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
        def requested = details.requested
        if (requested.group == 'com.android.support') {
            if (!requested.name.startsWith("multidex")) {
                details.useVersion '26.0.0'
            }
        }
    }
}

but same error show

It seems like it is not the same error, you have to look for Execution failed for task ‘:app:transform DexArchiveWithMultidexlistForDebug’ as particular error, not Execution failed for task ‘:app:transform DexArchiveWithDexMergerForDebug’ as it was in my case. Or maybe you have to check, if the error changed after adding of configurations.all { ... } to build.gradle.

Have you tried to reinstall android:

$ ionic cordova platform remove android --save
$ ionic cordova platform add android --save

Also possible, it is dependency issue with your project, some library is problematic.

In addition check this guide: https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex

thank you!

this code is worked

 defaultConfig {
	  minSdkVersion 21
      targetSdkVersion 26
      multiDexEnabled true
}

but this code not worked

defaultConfig {
      minSdkVersion 19
      targetSdkVersion 26
      multiDexEnabled true
}
