Up, I'm facing the same issue even though I already follow the exact setup from this documentation
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/distribution/codepush/rn-get-started

I had the same issue. Your versions of react-native and the library seem to be incompatible.
Try react-native-code-push v7.0+ for react native v0.65-v0.70

Might be related to #2521.

@emclab , @tommycp96 , would it be possible for you to upgrade RN to 0.71?

[tommycp96]

Hi all 👋

I solved this issue by making the following change in the node_modules/react-native-code-push/android/codepush.gradle file:

// Broken 💥 
def debuggableVariants = config.debuggableVariants.get() ?: ['debug']

// Fixed ✅ 
def debuggableVariants = config.debuggableVariants ?: ['debug']

For managing alterations to npm dependencies that I make locally, I rely on patch-package. Hope this helps! 🚀

@itsabk @rodrigodiasf1984 @bonesyblue
Could you please check if this fix works for you?
Also, could you please confirm what this issue still persist on latest version (8.2.1)?

[pierroo]

FYI the info still persists on v8.2.1 @MikhailSuendukov ;
as a matter of fact I just created an issue on it (which I will close now that I found this one)

although I'm on RN0.69.12
I thought of upgrading code push to latest since it is currently unusable by creating some invalid hook call out of nowhere when getting an update from it (also created an issue on that that got no reply in spite of making it unusable :/)
