In order to use android push notifications (FCM) it is necessary to configure Firebase dependencies.

1. Create firebase project in google + get google-services.json file, and place it in the "android/app" folder.

2. My ext settings in android/build.gradle

ext {
		buildToolsVersion = "28.0.2"
		minSdkVersion = 16
		compileSdkVersion = 28
		targetSdkVersion = 27
		supportLibVersion = "26.1.0"
		googlePlayServicesVersion = "15.0.0"
		firebaseVersion = "15.0.2"
}

3. My dependencies in android/build.gradle

dependencies {
		classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
		classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.2'
}

4. Import following projs in android/app/build.gradle (under dependencies):

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:${rootProject.ext.googlePlayServicesVersion}"

implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:${rootProject.ext.firebaseVersion}"

5. Add apply to the end of the file in android/app/build.gradle

RNAndroidPushNotifications.init(
		options,
		(token) => {
				alert("token" + token)
		},
		(err) => {
				alert(err)
		});


// In order to "invalidate" a token
// This can happen when user logs out from your app.
RNAndroidPushNotifications.unregister(
		() => {},
		() => {}
);
