notifee: cannot find symbol NotifeeApiModule.java:245 REQUEST_CODE_NOTIFICATION_PERMISSION

Hello, Thanks a lot for your awesome library. I just installed the 6.0.0 because I wanted to be compliant with the permissions on android 13 but I am facing a problem.

Indeed it looks like something is missing in the notifee library, when building I have the error :

node_modules/@notifee/react-native/android/src/main/java/io/invertase/notifee/NotifeeApiModule.java:245: error: cannot find symbol
        Notifee.REQUEST_CODE_NOTIFICATION_PERMISSION,
               ^
  symbol:   variable REQUEST_CODE_NOTIFICATION_PERMISSION
  location: class Notifee

From my package.json :

"react-native": "0.68.3",
"@notifee/react-native": "6.0.0",

From my build.gradle:

        buildToolsVersion = "33.0.0"
        compileSdkVersion = 33
        targetSdkVersion = 33

dependencies {
        classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.1.1")

Thanks !

is your compileSdkVersion set to 33?

No, currently it’s like that

buildToolsVersion = "31.0.0"
minSdkVersion = 21
compileSdkVersion = 31
targetSdkVersion = 31

Should I update?

EDIT Thanks @helenaford, I updated my compileSdkVersion and worked!!!

@helenaford I updated to 7.0.1 and I’m getting this error now:

node_modules/@notifee/react-native/android/src/main/java/io/invertase/notifee/NotifeeApiModule.java:244: error: cannot find symbol
        new String[] {Manifest.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS},
                                         ^
  symbol:   variable POST_NOTIFICATIONS
  location: class permission

Before update I already had this error and the one described by @CharlieBreval.

Do you know if they’re related?

This error occurs when I run npx react-native run-android

Had gotten this issue, but upgrading compileSdkVersion = 33 solved it in 7.0.1, thanks @helenaford

@helenaford I’m using v7.0.1 and compiledSdkVersion =33 but still getting a similiar error buildscript { ext { buildToolsVersion = “33.0.0” minSdkVersion = 21 compileSdkVersion = 33 targetSdkVersion = 33

    // We use NDK 23 which has both M1 support and is the side-by-side NDK version from AGP.
    ndkVersion = "23.1.7779620"
}
repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
    classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle")
    classpath("com.facebook.react:react-native-gradle-plugin")
   //add firebase
    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.15'
}

}

Thank you, @helenaford. Setting compileSdkVersion = 33 fixed the issue

Yes, as part of that later versions in the 5.x.x series, we removed the requirement to alter your build.gradles and add the local directory as a maven repository. Without the directory added in build.gradle, the core aar file cannot be found until that change https://notifee.app/react-native/docs/release-notes - 5.3.0 and a fix in 5.7.0
