I followed the instructions on the react-native-config package but Im getting the following error:
Native module RNCConfig Module tried to override RNCConfigModule. Check the getPackages() method in MainApplication.java , it might be that module is being created twice.
If I just install the package and don't do the native steps, it doesn't break like this but my Config on android is empty.
Through trial and error of commenting out different combinations of the native instructions and doing many gradlew cleans and reset cache (and ultimately having to delete my android/.gradle folder and click Sync Project with Gradle files in Android Studio to remove a persistent ghostly remnant of react-native-config after completely removing the package and code, I was encouraged by this thread: https://github.com/lugg/react-native-config/issues/741#issuecomment-1676199644
I ended up only adding this to my app/build.gradle file and didn't add any of the other native Android parts as they listed in the instructions. This is how the top of it looks now:
apply plugin: "com.android.application"
apply plugin: "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android"
apply plugin: "com.facebook.react"
apply from: project(':react-native-config').projectDir.getPath() + "/dotenv.gradle" // I added only this
I'm using "react-native": "0.73.2", "react-native-config": "1.5.1",
