Gradle Dependency

[CDandu16]

Does the Gradle Dependency not work? It doesn't seem to recognize the source.

It doesn't work. You have to import the project as a module in Android Studio. You may have to make some changes to the projects gradle file to get the import to be successful.

@cbdonohue Any insight into what needs to be updated in the gradle file? Glad to help figure out what needs fixing here.

Any luck with the gradle dependency? I have been trying to add this API to my project and can't seem to get it to work. If the gradle dependency doesn't work, is there a way to make this an Android library instead of a project?

Clone or download the project into a directory. Then create a new Android project and import the soda-android-sdk module.

I had to make the following changes to the build.gradle for the soda-android-sdk module:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'http://repo1.maven.org/maven2' }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

dependencies {
    compile files('libs/android-async-http-1.4.2-66-g4b6eb97.jar')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.1.0'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:10.0.1'
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 25
    buildToolsVersion '25.0.1'

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 19
        targetSdkVersion 25
        testApplicationId "com.socrata.android.tests"
    }
}

You may also have to add the following to the Application tag of your manifest so it merges manifests correctly:

xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:replace="android:icon"

In your new application's build.gradle you will have to include the other module as a dependency: compile project(':soda-android-sdk')

I'm using Android Studio 2.3 Beta 1
