Error occurs in manifests after the unity project as library and android project

Question

I have exported an android gradle from Unity. Then I created an Empty Activity; I called it "Tester". Then I clicked File > New > New Module > Import Gradle Project. Then I edited the build.gradle file of the gradle I exported from Unity. Here's how it looks now

    // GENERATED BY UNITY. REMOVE THIS COMMENT TO PREVENT OVERWRITING WHEN EXPORTING AGAIN
buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0'
    }
}

allprojects {
   repositories {
      flatDir {
        dirs 'libs'
      }
   }
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27
    buildToolsVersion '28.0.1'

    defaultConfig {
        targetSdkVersion 27
    }

    lintOptions {
        abortOnError false
    }

    aaptOptions {
        noCompress '.unity3d', '.ress', '.resource', '.obb','bin/data/sharedassets0.resource'
    }


    buildTypes {
        debug {
            minifyEnabled false
            useProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-unity.txt'
            jniDebuggable true
        }
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            useProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-unity.txt'
            signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
        }
    }

}

Also, in my setttings.gradle of Tester

include ':app', ':AISAMPLE'

Lastly, In my app.gradle

    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 27
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.teameut.tester"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 27
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(":AISAMPLE")
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
}

Then I get an error after building:

Manifest merger failed with multiple errors, see logs

Answer 1

In the Manifest of the app check the start of the code and add xmlns:tools and tools:replace

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    package="com.insuide.tarak.iaunitydemo4">

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        tools:replace="android:icon,android:theme"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

I hope it helps. It helped me!

Answer 2

In android studio, Open the manifest file of the main app, not the library but the app's manifest. After opening it, you will see a merge manifest at the bottom. Just hit the Merge Manifest and see that there are errors at the right side. Click it and android studio will help you solve it :D
