FCMPlugin build fail due to version conflict with google gms services

Question

I\'m using this with ionic 2 on Windows for Android. When I add cordova-plugin-fcm plugin, I cannot build the project anymore. Here is the error that I\'m getting:

Answer 1

I solved it.

plugings:

https://github.com/mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation

https://github.com/fechanique/cordova-plugin-fcm

1). remove platform: cordova platform rm android.

2). modify: plugins/cordova-plugin-fcm/src/android/FCMPlugin.gradle

replace:

apply plugin: com.google.gms.googleservices.GoogleServicesPlugin

with:

ext.postBuildExtras = {
    apply plugin: com.google.gms.googleservices.GoogleServicesPlugin
}

3) add platform: cordova platform add android.

4) modify: platforms/android/project.properties

change the "+" for "11.4.2":

com.google.firebase:firebase-core:+
com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:+
com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:+

should look like this:

com.google.firebase:firebase-core:11.4.2
com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.4.2
com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.4.2

that's all :).
