Build fails after installing @react-native-community/blur

[angelzbg]

Hello, after installing the dependency my build now fails.
npm install --save @react-native-community/blur
build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven {
            // All of React Native (JS, Obj-C sources, Android binaries) is installed from npm
            url("$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android")
        }
        maven {
            // Android JSC is installed from npm
            url("$rootDir/../node_modules/jsc-android/dist")
        }
        mavenCentral {
            // We don't want to fetch react-native from Maven Central as there are
            // older versions over there.
            content {
                excludeGroup "com.facebook.react"
            }
        }
        google()
        maven { url 'https://www.jitpack.io' }
    }
}

My error:

Jitpack is down, probably it's better to change to a Maven repository.

[angelzbg]

Problem solved. Jitpack was down.

[bryanekong]

Hello @angelzbg how did you solve this problem?

[angelzbg]

@bryanekong, check if jitpack is down. If it's down you can't download the files so all you can do is wait, find an alternative library or write it yourself.

[bryanekong]

How do I check this? This is my first-time running react-native, my app fails to build by throwing compilation error due to @react-native-community/blu

[angelzbg]

Does it say "Could not resolve com.github.Dimezis:BlurView:version-2.0.2."?
