How to include dagger 2?

I am trying to use Dagger 2 for dependency injection. Currently I am adding the depenecies like this.

In build.gradle

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'
}

In app/build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'


dependencies {
    testCompile 'junit:junit:
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.2.0'
    apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.2'
    compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.2'
    provided 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'
}

The problem is, We are creating a SDK (module), which will be included by other apps so I don't want to include the dependency in build.gradle. Because of this, I will have to tell the other apps to include Dagger2 dependency in their main build.gradle file.

Also, let me know if there is any way to include dagger library using jar.

Thanks in advance :)

Try this

add this to your build.gradle

dependencies {
 // other classpath definitions here
 classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'
}

Then in your app/build.gradle:

 apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'

 dependencies {
    // apt command comes from the android-apt plugin
   apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.2'
   compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.2'
   provided 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'
 }

Note that the provided keyword refers to dependencies that are only needed at compilation.

Hope this helps
