Task 'bundleReleaseJsAndAssets' not found in root project

Issue

I am unable to get a successful build with the React Native project in Jenkins. I get this error:

14:41:59 FAILURE: Build failed with an exception. 14:41:59 14:41:59 * What went wrong: 14:41:59 Execution failed for task ':app:bundleDevReleaseJsAndAssets'. 14:41:59 > Process 'command 'node'' finished with non-zero exit value 1 14:41:59

I did find an answer here:

React-Native assembleRelease fails for task ':app:bundleReleaseJsAndAssets'

The problem is when its time to build, the second step:

./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleReleaseJsAndAssets

I get this error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Running gradlew tasks does not provide any insights to me:

✗ gradle tasks

Also, notice I had to run gradle tasks.

The few related articles on SO are either 3 to 5 years old and speaks to versions of

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 16
        compileSdkVersion = 27
        targetSdkVersion = 26
        supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
    }

inside of build.gradle that are not appropriate for my version of RN:

I recently upgraded to version 0.57.8 and followed this guide: https://reactnative.thenativebits.com/courses/upgrading-react-native/upgrade-to-react-native-0.57/

It was explained to me that I needed to run:

✗ ./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleDevReleaseJsAndAssets

and I did and I continue to get the error.

If I then try to follow the step by Kartik Shah: React-Native assembleRelease fails for task ':app:bundleReleaseJsAndAssets'

I get this error:

I ran into this issue three days ago and I thought with the upgrade it would be resolved:

https://github.com/getsentry/react-native-sentry/issues/610

So I upgraded React Native Sentry and the errors I get now are as follows:

The TaskInternal.executer property has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 5.0. There are better ways to re-use task logic, see https://docs.gradle.org/4.4/userguide/custom_tasks.html#sec:reusing_task_logic.

error: failed linking references.

It seems like the offending code is around here:

def bundleTasks = tasks.findAll { task -> task.name.startsWith("bundle") && task.name.endsWith("JsAndAssets") && !task.name.contains("Debug")}
    bundleTasks.each { bundleTask ->
        def shouldCleanUp
        def sourcemapOutput
        def bundleOutput
        def props = bundleTask.getProperties()
        def reactRoot = props.get("workingDir")

Does anyone have any workaround or experience with this for React Native Sentry?

Solution

The only difference I see is that your original error is for task bundleDevReleaseJsAndAssets as opposed to the bundleReleaseJsAndAssets task that failed in the other post that you linked. So possibly try running this instead:

./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleDevReleaseJsAndAssets

Basically as-is you were telling it to exclude a task that might not be part of your project. You have to specify the correct one.
