google play services issue w/ other plugins about nativescript-google-maps-sdk

[dapriett]

I have it currently setup to use the latest version installed compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:+'. You can maybe try uninstalling any later versions of the sdk with the Android SDK Manager, then I believe it should use 8.4.0.

Maybe it would be best if they changed their plugins to do the same, that way you're always using the latest installed. Otherwise, I'm not sure the best way to keep them all in sync.

Unfortunately we're building using the Telerik Platform, so we don't have control over the google play service version installed. I'll check w/ the other plugin developers to see if they can use latest version installed.

I was just having this issue between three plugins. admob + push-notifications + google-maps-sdk.

In the include.gradle for each plugin I replaced the previous junk with this:
dependencies {
compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:9.0.0"
}

tns platform remove android
tns run android
Should spin it right!

Looks like this issue is resolved - at least for this plugin.

I added the ability now to set the SDK version - see commit 9a92655.

Hopefully that solve your issues. If so, maybe you can ask the other plugins that depend on Google Play Services to reference the same property.
