Kotlin 2 build error when building Android with Expo 52

[sfriedman-stripe]

I upgraded to v0.45.0. No issues were found on iOS, but the Android compilation failed with an error like this: "node_modules/@stripe/stripe-react-native/android/src/main/java/com/reactnativestripesdk/utils/Mappers.kt:1043:29 Class 'kotlin.Unit' was compiled with an incompatible version of Kotlin. The actual metadata version is 2.1.0, but the compiler version 1.9.0 can read versions up to 2.0.0."
Currently, I'm using Expo 52, and it seems that it doesn't support upgrading to Kotlin 2.0.0 yet. What other solutions are there?

The Stripe Android SDK requires the Kotlin Gradle plugin version 2.x. When using Expo SDK 52 or React Native version 0.77 and below you will need to make these changes to support it.

Expo

Install expo-build-properties if you do not have it already. Make sure to use version 0.13.3 or later.

npx expo install expo-build-properties

In app.json set kotlinVersion to 2.0.21 or later using the expo-build-properties plugin.

+          }
+        }
+      ]
+    ]

React Native

In android/build.gradle make the following changes:

• In the buildscript.ext section add kotlinVersion = '2.0.21'.
• In the buildscript.dependencies section change classpath('org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin') for classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlinVersion").

i am getting same error in sdk 53:

A problem occurred configuring project ':stripe_stripe-react-native'.

[janicduplessis]

Hello @aahilalwani25, is there anywhere in your project where you specify a kotlin version lower than 2.0? From my testing it should work fine on sdk 53.

[aahilalwani25]

@janicduplessis Yes. I am using kotlin version 1.9.25. I have tried to convert to 2.0.21, and it is building successfully by using ./gradlew clean, but when i try to to EAS build using eas build --platform android --profile development, it is giving me error:

[janicduplessis]

@aahilalwani25 Can you try passing --clear-cache to the eas build command? Maybe it is a caching issue.

@aahilalwani25 Can you try passing --clear-cache to the eas build command? Maybe it is a caching issue.

@janicduplessis I have figured out the solution.
I am not sure about the EAS build but the steps that I have followed:

1. run the command npx expo install --fix
2. update the package 0.45 to 0.38.6 ("@stripe/stripe-react-native": "0.38.6"), it does not require kotlin v2.0 support
3. Then built APK using npx expo run:android

I am not sure about EAS build, but if anyone who wants to test the google pay by building APK, then this might help.
I have used these steps as an option for testing google pay.

PS: I am using free account of EAS, so I don't want to waste my build creds

This saved me. I didn't have the stripe issue but react-native-reanimated required this kotlin version in order to build for Android. thx

In my project, the new architecture is enabled for iOS, while the old architecture is still used for Android. After modifying some code, it ran successfully. Here is my patch. I hope it will be useful to you.

Also try to fix StripeSdkPackage but out of my knowledge and look like it related to new architecture implementation, i'm using react-native 0.73.x btw.
So i think update kotlin version to 2.x will not recommend for react-native < 0.75 due to new architecture availability
