Using AAR from source with React Native

[juanamd]

Hi,

I managed to compile SoLoader from source as explained in the readme file, but could not make it work with React Native.
Basically, I cannot tell Gradle to replace the Soloader dependencies from react-native with my local .aar file.
I tried everything I could find with my limited Gradle knowledge, but either:

• the app is built with the default dependency (com.facebook.soloader:soloader) and not my aar
• the build process fails because there are duplicate classes
• the build process cannot find SoLoader
• the app crashes with an error similar to this one

I currently use the latest stable version (0.10.1) by doing
resolutionStrategy { force "com.facebook.soloader:soloader:0.10.1" }

But I could not find how to do the same with a local aar file.

Any help would be welcome.
