What happened?

Android seems to be failing to build using latest 5.0 version.

Plugin Code and/or Config

BackgroundGeolocation.ready({
  geolocation: {
    desiredAccuracy: BackgroundGeolocation.DesiredAccuracy.High,
    // distanceFilter: 10,
    // Activity Recognition
    stopTimeout: 5,
    distanceFilter: 10,
  },
  app: {
    stopOnTerminate: false, // <-- Allow the background-service to continue tracking when user closes the app.
    startOnBoot: true, // <-- Auto start tracking when device is powered-up.
  },
  http: {
    autoSync: true,
    url: 'https://background-geolocation-console.---/locations',
  },
  logger: {
    logLevel: BackgroundGeolocation.LogLevel.Verbose,
    debug: false, // <-- enable this hear sounds for background-geolocation life-cycle.
  },
}).then((state) => {
  console.log('- BackgroundGeolocation is configured and ready: ', state.enabled);
});

Relevant log output

Looking into it

[christocracy]

cd android 
./gradlew app:dependencies | grep tslocationmanager

[christocracy]

This one is definitely a bug:

TSLog.logger.debug("[onHeadlessJsTaskFinish] taskId: " + taskId);

But these ones are supposed to be fine:

I've released 5.0.1. Update your version.

[nathan-charles]

Still failing for me, getting even more of the cannot find symbol error for TSLog.d(

[christocracy]

Show me your android/app/build.gradle

[christocracy]

It makes no sense for those symbols to be missing.

Can you create for me a simple HelloWorld app that reproduces this for me.

If you have the authority to grant me access to your app, so I can try building locally, that works too.

[nathan-charles]

Sorry for the delay, i was working on putting together example project this morning but was able to replicate just by creating new blank expo project and adding the following dependencies and running the following commands. Let me know if you still need me to share that example project.

    "react-native-background-fetch": "^4.3.0",
    "react-native-background-geolocation": "^5.0.1",

npx expo prebuild --clean
npx expo run:android

[christocracy]

Yes, I want you to share your simple hello world with me in a public github repo.

[nathan-charles]

https://github.com/nathan-charles/background-geo

[christocracy]

Cloned your repo and launched your app. Everything works for me, as expected.
