react-native-mapbox-gl/android/install.md

Step 1 - NPM Install

Run with --ignore-scripts if you don't want to download the iOS SDK, as well.

npm install --save react-native-mapbox-gl --ignore-scripts

Step 2 - Use with Gradle

Option A - Automatically

react-native link

Option B - Manually

Edit the following files:

// file: android/settings.gradle
...

include ':reactnativemapboxgl'
project(':reactnativemapboxgl').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-mapbox-gl/android')

// file: android/app/build.gradle
...

dependencies {
    ...
    compile project(':reactnativemapboxgl')
}

// file: android/app/src/main/java/com/yourcompany/yourapp/MainApplication.java
import com.mapbox.reactnativemapboxgl.ReactNativeMapboxGLPackage; // <-- import
...
/**
   * A list of packages used by the app. If the app uses additional views
   * or modules besides the default ones, add more packages here.
   */
    @Override
    protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
      return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
        new MainReactPackage(),
        new ReactNativeMapboxGLPackage());  // <-- Register package here
    }

Step 3 - Add Mapbox to AndroidManifest.xml

Add the following permissions to the <manifest> root node of your AndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Also, add the Mapbox analytics service to the <application> node:

<service android:name="com.mapbox.mapboxsdk.telemetry.TelemetryService"/>

Step 4 - Add to project, see example

Troubleshoot

You may get com.android.dex.DexException: Multiple dex files define Lokhttp3/internal/ws/WebSocketReader$FrameCallback error when building the android app. You can solve it by adding this.

// file: android/app/build.gradle
...

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
        force "com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.4.2"
        force "com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp-ws:3.4.2"
    }
}
