Conflicting 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:' with react-native maps

[chetnadaffodil]

Hi,
I am trying to use your package along with react-native-maps but the creation of the build is failing
due to conflicting 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location' in both packages.

Here is a picture of the error thrown

[chetnadaffodil]

Your build.gradle file

dependencies {
compile 'com.facebook.react:react-native:+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:8.4.0'
}

React Native Maps build.gradle file
dependencies {
compile 'com.facebook.react:react-native:+'
compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:9.4.0"
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:9.4.0'
}

There is a mismatch of the versions for com.google.android.gms package
Please upgrade it to 9.4.0

@chetnadaffodil I've updated com.google.android.gms to 9.4.0 and added compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:9.4.0' but it seems somethins still off. There is no conflict anymore but got fallowing error:

Looks like the play services places library has been moved since the 8.4.0 version referenced in react-native-google-place-picker.

I was able to workaround by forking and updating react-native-google-place-picker's dependency.

See my forked change: geordasche@85abf5c

try npm install github:geordasche/react-native-google-place-picker to see if that works for you.

Hope this helps. Remember to reset your npm cache and clean/sync your build as well.

Closed and reopened this issue as it's impossible keep dependencies always be compatible with other libraries.
If there is conflict, please refer to @chetnadaffodil or @geordasche 's comment, modify the build.gradle from either side manually to resolve it.
