How do I import material design library to Android Studio?
I want to import this library to my project in Android Studio v1.0.0 rc2:
https://github.com/navasmdc/MaterialDesignLibrary
But there is a problem. When I add this library as a module, this error appears:
Error:Dependency MyApplication.libraries:MaterialDesign:unspecified on project app resolves to an APK archive which is not supported as a compilation dependency. File: C:\ADTBundle\StudioWorkspace\MyApplication\libraries\MaterialDesign\build\outputs\apk\MaterialDesign-release-unsigned.apk
What would be a step-by-step guide to solve this problem? Or what would be a gradle dependency for this library?
Solution 1:
There is a new official design library, just add this to your build.gradle: for details visit android developers page
implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.0.0'
Solution 2:
If you are using Android Studio:
You can import the project as a module and change the following in the
build.gradle
file of the imported module.Change apply plugin:
com.android.application
to apply plugin:com.android.library
removeapplicationId
and setminSdkVersion
to match your project minSdkVersion.And in your project
build.gradle
filecompile project(':MaterialDesignLibrary')
, whereMaterialDesignLibrary
is the name of your library project or you can import the module by File -> Project Structure -> Select your project under Modules -> Dependencies -> Click on + to add a module.
