Build an application into Android system with Android.bp instead of Android.mk

I need help with Android.bp script used by the new Soong application build system in AOSP.

I can't build simple HelloWorld application for Android Oreo, with new build scripts Android.bp my script:

android_app {
   name: "AmpTest",
   certificate: "platform",
   manifest: "app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml",
   srcs: [
       "app/src/main/java/**/*.java"
   ],
   android_resource_dirs: [
       "app/src/main/res"
   ],
   enabled: true
}

but i see errors:

FAILED: out/soong/build.ninja 
out/soong/.bootstrap/bin/soong_build  -t -b out/soong -d 
out/soong/build.ninja.d -o out/soong/build.ninja Android.bp

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

i tried add libs: [] static_libs: []

but no luck

Question is: how to create APK with Android.bp?

It looks like Soong requires knowledge of it's modules dependencies.

That is, if those other modules are in mk files, Soong will not have knowledge of them, and for the moment there doesn't seem to be a way to expose them.

Hope this links clarifies the answer's source.

Looks like it's better to stick to mk files for the moment.
