Android Studio is using Gradle cached version of React-Native

I have a forked version of React Native that lives in node_modules.

However, Android Studio is still using the React Native installation found in ~/.gradle/caches. I know this because if I do an import like:

import com.facebook.react.modules.core.DefaultHardwareBackBtnHandler;

and I command+click on the last part of it, the file it opens live in ~/.gradle/caches, and it's a very old version of React Native (0.20.1)

If I delete the cache, and rebuild the project, the same version is downloaded automatically.

How can I get Android Studio to look in my node_modules directory and not the cached directory for React Native?

In settings.gradle:

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

In app/build.gradle

...

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile project(':react-native-android')
}

configurations.all {
    exclude group: 'com.facebook.react', module: 'react-native'
}

In build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
        classpath 'de.undercouch:gradle-download-task:3.1.2'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenLocal()
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
        }
    }
}

Ok, here's what helped:

./gradlew :ReactAndroid:assembleDebug

Then:

./gradlew :ReactAndroid:installArchives
