How do I import material design library to Android Studio?

I want to import this library to my project in Android Studio v1.0.0 rc2:

https://github.com/navasmdc/MaterialDesignLibrary

But there is a problem. When I add this library as a module, this error appears:

Error:Dependency MyApplication.libraries:MaterialDesign:unspecified on project app resolves to an APK archive which is not supported as a compilation dependency. File: C:\ADTBundle\StudioWorkspace\MyApplication\libraries\MaterialDesign\build\outputs\apk\MaterialDesign-release-unsigned.apk

What would be a step-by-step guide to solve this problem? Or what would be a gradle dependency for this library?

If u are using Android X: https://material.io/develop/android/docs/getting-started/ follow the instruction here

when last edited the latest library version was

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.11.0'

Update : Get latest material design library from here https://maven.google.com/web/index.html?q=com.google.android.material#com.google.android.material:material

For older SDK

Add the design support library version as same as of your appcompat-v7 library

You can get the latest library from android developer documentation https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/packages#design

implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'

you can add latest libraries support to old project by putting all these inside app:level gradle.build like this

    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    
    
   // rest code

    dependencies {
        implementation("com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:4.10.0")
        implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.4.2'
        implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.6.1'
        implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.1.4'
        implementation 'androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:1.0.0'
        testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.13.2'
        androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.3'
        androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.4.0'
    }
}

First, add the Material Design dependency.

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:<version>'

To get the latest material design library version. check the official website github repository.

Current version is 1.2.0.

So, you have to add,

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.2.0'

Then, you need to change the app theme to material theme by adding,

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.DarkActionBar">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>

in your style.xml. Dont forget to set the same theme in your application theme in your manifest file.

If you are using Android Studio:

  • You can import the project as a module and change the following in the build.gradle file of the imported module.

  • Change apply plugin: com.android.application to apply plugin: com.android.library remove applicationId and set minSdkVersion to match your project minSdkVersion.

  • And in your project build.gradle file compile project(':MaterialDesignLibrary'), where MaterialDesignLibrary is the name of your library project or you can import the module by File -> Project Structure -> Select your project under Modules -> Dependencies -> Click on + to add a module.
