Seem doesn't get Facebook SDK resource when using Facebook Android SDK in IntelliJ IDEA 12

Question

According to the article Add facebook SDK to IntelliJ Android project?, I choose to add the \"facebook.jar\" file as a Module in the \"Dependencies<

Answer 1

A much simpler approach is to import the Facebook SDK as an AAR library in your Android app's Gradle build. For doing so, I suggest not to reinvent the wheel and use the facebook-api-android-aar project (see https://github.com/mente/facebook-api-android-aar) instead. As explained on this project's documentation (in the README.md file) the simple way is to use a pre-built Maven artifact of the Facebook SDK, by adding the following code in your application's build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:+'
    }
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
    maven {
        url "http://mente.github.io/facebook-api-android-aar"
    }
}

apply plugin: 'android'
dependencies {
    compile ('com.facebook:facebook-android-sdk:+@aar') {
        transitive = true
    }

    // other dependecies definition here
}

android {
   //android build setup
} 

That's it. Note that this tool support version 3.0.2, 3.5.0, 3.5.2, 3.6.0, 3.7.0, 3.8.0, 3.14.1, 3.15.0, 3.16 of the Facebook SDK.
