How can I upgrade react-native gradle version

I need help. I can't upgrade gradle version of my react-native project.

I try a lot of things, downloaded last version of Android Studio & SDK Tools etc.

I changed this file \android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties, I tried to upgrade using npm install -g react-native-git-upgrade but still I can't upgrade it.

When I react-native eject It's exports "distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip"

Waiting for answers.

Check Gradle Releases: Visit the Gradle releases page (https://services.gradle.org/distributions/) to find a compatible version. Ideally, choose a stable release and avoid RC (release candidate) versions. Opt for versions ending in -all.zip.

Update gradle-wrapper.properties: Open the gradle-wrapper.properties file and edit the distributionUrl property. Replace the existing URL with the one you obtained from the Gradle releases page for your desired version (e.g., distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.5.1-bin/gradle-7.5.1-all.zip).

Update Gradle: Run the following command in your project's root directory (replace 7.5.1 with the actual version you chose):

 ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=7.5.1

I had opened my project in Terminal and ran open -a /Applications/Android\ Studio.app to open Android Studio but so that it can access node to download my gradle version which it did automatically.

Learned from this original post: React Native on Android: Cannot run program "node": error=2, No such file or directory

There are two things

  1. Android Gradle Plugin

    You can see the version of it in android/build.gradle file and update it using Daniel's answer here

  2. Gradle version

    You can see this in android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties file and update it using the answer mentioned here

To know the difference between them refer following links:

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin

difference between android gradle plugin and gradle

you can go to https://services.gradle.org/distributions/ and check that latest -all.zip version of gradle and update the same in your gradle-wrapper.properties file. When you run your react-native app the next time, your gradle will first get upgraded and then run.

From Gradle's site:

https://gradle.org/install/#with-the-gradle-wrapper

Upgrade with the Gradle Wrapper If your existing Gradle-based build uses the Gradle Wrapper, you can easily upgrade by running the wrapper task, specifying the desired Gradle version:

$ ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=6.6.1 --distribution-type=bin Note that it is not necessary for Gradle to be installed to use the Gradle wrapper. The next invocation of gradlew or gradlew.bat will download and cache the specified version of Gradle.

$ ./gradlew tasks Downloading https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.6.1-bin.zip ...

Run these commands in your project's android folder

In {yourProject}\android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties, update:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-{your version}.zip

Find your version of gradle with

gradle --version

You may need to install gradle wrapper if you haven't already.

In android/build.gradle you have to edit this line

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:x.y.z'

Change x.y.z with the version you want. Edit it with Android Studio then click Sync now
