Unable to import project into android studio

I am trying to use this library

I added

compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library: 2.0@aar '

depending on.

My top level build file

 // Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules. buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.8.+' } } allprojects { repositories { mavenCentral() } }

And this gives me the error "failed to update the gradle project" with reference to the project I'm trying to import.

This library is not located on central Maven as aar.

Check here:

http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cnet.rdrei.android.dirchooser is an apklib format.

I checked the snapshot repository and here you can find this library.

https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/net/rdrei/android/dirchooser/library/

To use repo binding you have to change your script:

 repositories { mavenCentral() maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" } }

Then add a depencency parameter like

 compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:2.1-SNAPSHOT'

The answer provided by @unify @GabrieleMariotti and @AndyJoiner is correct. However, this is confused, since we have two gradle files - the gradle project level and the internal gradle (where you write your dependencies). The solution is to add the code suggested by @AndyJoiner inside the internal gradle .

Since I was confused as to where to add the code, which took me an hour to understand, I do not want this to happen to others. So, I am sending my both gradle files.

Gradle project level

 buildscript { repositories { jcenter() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.0.0' } } allprojects { repositories { jcenter() } }

Inner gradle

 apply plugin: 'com.android.application' android { compileSdkVersion 21 buildToolsVersion "21.1.2" defaultConfig { applicationId "com.itcse.materialdesignsearchviewlikegoogleplay" minSdkVersion 15 targetSdkVersion 21 versionCode 1 versionName "1.0" } buildTypes { release { minifyEnabled false proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro' } } // Add the code for repositories here repositories { mavenCentral() maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" } maven { url 'http://guardian.github.com/maven/repo-releases' } } } dependencies { compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3' // Add the dependencies here compile 'com.quinny898.library.persistentsearch:library: 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT@aar ' }

Hope this helps others in the future.

This worked for me:

 repositories { maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots' }

Here you can find the repository https://oss.sonatype.org/#nexus-search;quick~dirchooser

Having tried Gabriele's answer and digging a little more, it worked for me

 repositories { mavenCentral() maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" } maven { url 'http://guardian.github.com/maven/repo-releases' } } dependencies { compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library: 2.2-SNAPSHOT@aar ' }
