Error:Module 'com.wu-man:android-oauth-client:0.4.4' depends on one or more Android Libraries but is a jar

[coderbec]

getting this build error in gradle.

one work around is to force it to use the aar by putting

compile 'com.wu-man:android-oauth-client:0.4.4@aar' in the gradle dependecies

What is the solution for this problem? I am facing the same issue

[coderbec]

As above, instead of using the gradle line wuman has in the docs, you need to but @aar in it which forces gradle to pull a valid format. I'm guess wuman hasn't configured the library correctly in the root directory or something.

Putting an @aar in the end resolved the build error, but now what is happening that it did not get all the dependencies of this library like JacksonFactory, ClientParametersAuthentication, etc...
Do I have to add these missing dependencies of this library in my project? or is it the library should have got them.

[coderbec]

Er yeah no idea what's going on with gradle... At this point best option is to download the actual .jar, import it to the libs folder, right click and add as a library ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[akhatriST]

Are you talking about the jar from maven?
Will adding this jar of this library resolve all the dependencies? or still I will need to add those explicitly in my app?

[akhatriST]

Finally I've got it to work.
I ve added the library project provided in the repo to my project as a dependency in my build.gradle
compile project (':library').
and It got all the underlying dependencies of the library as well.

This is what I did to resolve my issue. Thanks to this issue.

    compile 'com.wu-man:android-oauth-client:0.4.5@aar'
    compile('com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:1.20.0') {
        exclude group: 'com.google.android.google-play-services', module: 'google-play-services'
        exclude group: 'junit', module: 'junit'
        exclude group: 'com.google.android', module: 'android'
    }
    compile 'com.google.oauth-client:google-oauth-client-java6:1.20.0'
    compile 'com.google.http-client:google-http-client-jackson:1.20.0'

You can update the versions of the dependencies for this project to newer versions if you'd like. If you are pulling in the @aar for this project, then you will also need to open your AndroidManifest.xml and add the tools namespace xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" and also tools:replace="android:allowBackup" to the <application> tag.
