android studio导入Maven项目没有gradle

Question

i try include aacdecoder ( https://github.com/vbartacek/aacdecoder-android ) to my project. In decoder readme says my dependency is

<dependency>
        <groupId>com.spoledge.aacdecoder</groupId>
        <artifactId>aacdecoder-lib</artifactId>
        <version>0.8</version>
        <type>apklib</type>
</dependency>

but when i use in my build.gradle like this

compile 'com.spoledge.aacdecoder:aacdecoder-lib:0.8'

it fail when i am try sync it.

After jitpack.io (thanks OleGG), like in image (downside) it isnt apper like exoplayer.

As you can see from maven library definition, it's distributed as <type>apklib</type> , and apklib is unsupported by Gradle.

The easiest solution will be to package this library within your repo. Also you can follow the instructions from this question How to convert apklib to aar , but anyway it'll lead to app repackage.

Also you can try to use https://jitpack.io to package it automatically. In this case you need to add jitpack repo to your root build.gradle file like this:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }
}

and then provide github repo as a dependency in appropriate modules:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.vbartacek:aacdecoder-android:0.8'
}
