In my quest to implement a third party push notification system, I'm trying to implement Google's Firebase plugin and system. I'm able to incorporate the Firebase Cordova plugin into my project, but their instructions say to load their google-services.json file at the cordova root in order to implement the plugin on the Android side.
I pursued a path of exporting the Android Studio Project and adding the file at the Cordova root. But I'm finding the Appery Android Studio Project export doesn't work entirely. My goal was to build the APK from Android Studio, but I've run into a myriad of issues (my current error message is "Gradle sync failed: Could not find method registerResGeneratingTask() for arguments [task ':processDebugGoogleServices'...".
Is there an easy way to load the google-services.json file at the cordova root from the Appery UI and build the APK with the Appery interface? What process would you recommend to accomplish this?
I'm a newbie with Android Studio and would prefer a method that didn't require me to build the APK with it.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
