What exactly is the error? What's not working properly?

node_modules/react-native-linear-gradient/android/src/main/java/com/BV/LinearGradient/LinearGradientPackage.java:20: error: method does not override or implement a method from a supertype

Setting the @shoutem/ui/package.json react-native-linear-gradient to ^2.0.0 instead of ~2.0.0 will resolve this. We're still working on full compatibility with React Native 0.47.2.

Alternatively you can also drop your React Native version down to one that's compatible with 2.0.x react-native-linear-gradient.

Hi Vladimir,

I changed "react-native-linear-gradient": "^2.0.0", but still get the error. What else should I do after making this change?

And if I downgrade React Native, which version should I go to?

Thanks
Gary

Most likely you still need to do react-native link and/or react-native upgrade.

If choose you downgrade, the most stable version of the UI toolkit that we've tested most extensively is 0.43.4.

Thank you for the quick response Vladimir,
I had done react-native link, it did not help. By the way, I cloned your whole ui and when I tried to run RestaurantsApp

, it failed as well.

below is my package.json
{
"name": "app",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js start",
"test": "jest"
},
"dependencies": {
"@shoutem/ui": "^0.21.3",
"mobx": "^3.2.2",
"mobx-react": "^4.2.2",

"react-native": "0.48.0",
"react-native-linear-gradient": "^2.3.0",
"react-native-router-flux": "^4.0.0-beta.21"
},
"devDependencies": {
"babel-jest": "20.0.3",
"babel-plugin-transform-class-properties": "^6.24.1",
"babel-plugin-transform-decorators-legacy": "^1.3.4",
"babel-preset-react-native": "3.0.2",

Here's a workaround for react-native-linear-gradient if you want to use it with higher versions of React Native.

1. Install @shoutem/ui - npm install @shoutem/ui --save
2. Open MyApp/node_modules/@shoutem/ui/package.json
3. Edit line 63 from: "react-native-linear-gradient": "~2.0.0" to:
   "react-native-linear-gradient": "^2.0.0"
4. Remove the current installation of react-native-linear-gradient by deleting:
   MyApp/node_modules/react-native-linear-gradient directory.
5. Run npm install from root project directory to install the new version of react-native-linear-gradient

Using these steps with React Native 0.48.1 resolved react-native-linear-gradient issues when building for Android.

We will look for a solution in the UI toolkit, we're working on making it out-of-the-box compatible with higher versions of React Native, for now the most stable version is 0.43.4, any higher than that and we can't guarantee out-of-the-box compliance.

@Vladimir-Vdovic any hope for a better fix ?

[Definitely-Not-Vlad]

We will address this in a future version of the UI toolkit along with other improvements, fixes and features.

Instead of making modifications to @shoutem package.json one can simply yarn add react-native-linear-gradient --save from the project folder.

[Awadhesh31]

run react-native link and react-native upgrade inside you project then run
react-native run-android/ios

it worked!!!!!!1

But still have some issues with ShoutEm

In my case (react native) was a problem with node_modules. I just remove it and made yarn install. Probably, they were installed with sudo so xcode hasn't permissions.
