Packaging error

[Kingjosh007]

I tried androidjs b -f, but I got this error...
stderr: provided apk path or file '...path-to-project\dist\app.apk' does not exist

May be there are some issues inandroidjs-builder@1.0.7.
We'll fix this issues ASAP,
For now you can downgrade to older version 1.0.6 follow these steps:

npm uninstall -g androidjs-builder
npm install -g androidjs-builder@1.0.6

Please report us if you find any other error or bug : )

Thank you. Downgrading...

I see the same issue. Downgrading did allow me to continue.

Yeah I think there are few bugs in 1.0.7 😅, we'll fix it ASAP.
We are making Android JS to compatible with react-native and flutter as well to provide Node JS runtime environment in react native and flutter . stay tuned for updates.

And when you done with your app, that you build with Android JS, you can make a pull request on app-showcase to add your app on Android JS homepage :)

Using Windows 8.1x64
AndroidJS Version : 1.0.6

I'm getting error when I build a project which I created using the command
android g

The error is that after installing, when I launch the app, it starts but after staying for 2-3 seconds, the app closes itself(I could still see it on the task-manager). But the same problem keeps repeating whenever I try to open it/bring it to foreground from task-manager.

But if I build any of the projects which are in the examples, all of them just work fine

This is problem just because may be all the dependencies are not installed

Run npm install command to install dependencies into the project folder

If the dependencies are missing, then the apk shouldn't even build(I think).

Nvm, previously I was using yarn for fetching the modules. Will check with npm & then report.

Btw, this project is good! Thanks 😄

When the application crashes, there is always be a run time exception that can't be checked at compile time.
App crash always happend because of mostly node js code so it always better to check all the required modules you have in node_modules and code you have written is correct.

And if you like the project could you please share it to make it more rechable to the community 😉

NOTE : Only for the case of androidjs-builder version 1.0.6

Ok, I caught the error.

When I use the command
androidjs g
All example files are generated except main.js

I included this file(which I left empty) & now everything worked like a charm

Have the same issue, downgrading works.

I've noticed:

The line 'build process exited with code 1'
I assume that means some error occured during the build process, however no info about the error is given.

[danbulant]

1.0.9 still the same error, looks like the build proces fails, but no error given

1.0.9 still the same error, looks like the build proces fails, but no error given

We didn't released 1.0.9 yet, How did you get that ?

Run the build command again and make sure you are connected to internet, this error occurs sometimes when your internet connection is slow and get the payload with size 0 ; P
