Found item String/google_app_id

[Mystearica]

Expected Behaviour

Should compile the app correctly

Actual Behaviour

The app is not compiling because of this error: Found item String/google_app_id more than one time

Cordova CLI version and cordova platform version

Ionic 2.2.1

Plugin version

1.10.0

Sample Code that illustrates the problem

In the strings.xml (Android platform) when I use ionic run android, it generates another string with the same id.

<string name="google_app_id">@string/google_app_id</string>
<string name="google_app_id" translatable="false">XXXXXXX</string>

I changed the numbers to XXXXXX

Logs taken while reproducing problem

Error: Found item String/google_app_id more than one time

@Mystearica where is the other google_app_id coming from?

[Mystearica]

@macdonst its coming from firebase plugin. Im using ionic2.
I tried removing the addons and addinng them again in different order, but both add google_app_id.

[macdonst]

@Mystearica why do you need to use the Firebase plugin?

[Mystearica]

@macdonst well Ionic 2 documentation says that you need that plugin in order to use firebase in your proyect.

[macdonst]

@Mystearica link to docs please?

[Mystearica]

@macdonst Here: https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/firebase/

[macdonst]

@Mystearica right, well that is an incompatibility between the plugins. It will be solved in the 2.0.0 of this plugin but let me see if there is a way to work around it.

[Mystearica]

@macdonst Thank you! I really need to solve this problem, I hope there is any work around.

[macdonst]

Note for myself.

Use edit-config instead.

Related note: <resource-config> from 6.2.0 is also an interesting suggestion for users.

[macdonst]

Nope, if there is no google_app_id in the manifest then adding the plugin gives this error:

Error: Unable to graft xml at selector "/resources/string[@name='google_app_id']"

It'll have to wait for the 2.0 release.

[macdonst]

In release 2.0.0 there will be no adding of 'google_app_id' in the strings.xml file. The inclusion of the Google Services file will be done with resource-file tag in config.xml.

@macdonst Any idea when this issue would be fixed / ETA on 2.0.0? This is a great plugin! I'd really love to use it with Firebase.

@aswinramakrish

[macdonst]

Yeah, folks can start using the release candidates.
