Load Android Gradle Plugin conditionally (#459)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This wraps the Android Gradle plugin dependency in the buildscripts section of android/build.gradle in a conditional.
The Android Gradle plugin is only required when opening the project stand-alone, not when it is included as a dependency. By doing this, the project opens correctly in Android Studio, and it can also be consumed as a native module dependency from an application project without affecting the app project (avoiding unnecessary downloads/conflicts/etc).

for more info, you can refer to [this thread](facebook/react-native#25569) and especially [this comment.](facebook/react-native#25569 (comment)).
