Hi guys,
We have an android app that we're attempting to use Firebase in, but a dependency we use is using protobuf-java causing conflicts with Firebase and it's inclusion of protobuf-javalite.
We've found some suggestions but nothing really consistent.
We can get the application to build and run using this block in the android block of the apps build.gradle file:
configurations {
implementation.exclude module:'proto-google-common-protos'
implementation.exclude module:'protolite-well-known-types'
implementation.exclude module:'protobuf-lite'
implementation.exclude module:'protobuf-javalite'
}
Is there a better way (short of eliminating the dependency that uses protobuf-java) to ensure compatibility?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you tell what version of protobuf firebase is pulling in? I wonder if we can get one or the other updated?

Have you tried reaching out to firebase to see if they can release a version w/ updated deps? They are pretty far behind.

I did. But it's not a version number issue, its a lite vs full issue.

Ah right, I see.
OK, yeah your best option is to get the other dependency to move to lite or drop it. If this is a mobile project you'll definitely wanna stay with lite for performance reasons.
