Import Android volley to Android Studio

Question

I wanna use the google\'s volley library

I am using Android Studio and I know how to add .jar libraries.

But I could not create a .jar library with the voll

Answer 1

So Volley has been updated to Android studio build style which makes it harder create a jar. But the recommended way for eclipse was using it as a library project and this goes for android studio as well, but when working in android studio we call this a module. So here is a guide to how do it the way Google wants us to do it. Guide is based on this nice tutorial.

1. First get latest volley with git (git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/volley).

2. In your current project (android studio) click [File] --> [New] -->[Import Module].

3. Now select the directory where you downloaded Volley to.

4. Now Android studio might guide you to do the rest but continue guide to verify that everything works correct

5. Open settings.gradle (find in root) and add (or verify this is included):

   include ':app', ':volley'

6. Now go to your build.gradle in your project and add the dependency:

   compile project(":volley")

Thats all there is to it, much simpler and easier than compiling a jar and safer than relying on third parties jars or maven uploads.

Answer 2

step 1:- Download volley.jar file.

step 2:- Go to your project and set the display menu from Android to Project then go to

app -> libs-> paste your volley.jar file here

step 3:- Right click on the volley.jar file and click on "add as library". and its all done.

Answer 3

two things

one: compile is out of date rather it is better to use implementation,

and two: volley 1.0.0 is out of date and syncing project will no work

alternatively in build.gradle add implementation 'com.android.volley:volley:1.1.1' or implementation 'com.android.volley:volley:1.1.+' for 1.1.0 and newer versions.

Answer 4

Add this dependency in your gradle.build(Module:app)file

compile 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0'

And then sync your gradle file.

Answer 5

it also available on repository mavenCentral() ...

dependencies {
    // https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.android.volley/volley
    api "com.android.volley:volley:1.1.0'
}

Answer 6

Most of these answers are out of date.

Google now has an easy way to import it.. We will continue to see a lot of outdated information as they did not create this solution for a good 2-3 years.

All you need to do is add to your Build.Gradle the following:

compile 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0'

IE

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 25
    buildToolsVersion "24.0.0"
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.foobar.ebay"
        minSdkVersion 23
        targetSdkVersion 25
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
    })
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.1.0'
    compile 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}
