How to compile forked library in Gradle?

Question

I want to compile the following library in my project in build.gradle:

https://github.com/theDazzler/Android-Bootstrap

It is forked from https:/

Answer 1

This fork isn't published in the maven central repo.

Then you can't use an import like compile com.theDazzler:androidbootstrap:+

You have to: - clone this library locally as a module in your project Clone the https://github.com/theDazzler/Android-Bootstrap/tree/master/AndroidBootstrap folder in your root/module1 folder.

  root:
      module1
        build.gradle
      app
        build.gradle
      settings.gradle

• Change your settings.gradle file in

  include ':module1' include ':app'

In your app/build.gradle file you have to add:

dependencies {
    // Module Library
    compile project(':module1')
}

Finally in your module1/build.gradle you have to check the level used for gradle plugin.

EDIT 31/10/2015:

You can use another way to add a dependency with a github project,using the github repo and the jitpack plugin
In this case you have to add this repo tp your build.gradle

repositories {
        // ...
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }

and the dependency:

dependencies {
        compile 'com.github.User:Repo:Tag'
    }
