How to Generate Jar from Library Project in Android Studio

Question

I had library project in Eclipse and the library project also some libraries dependencies inside it.

Now I migrate Eclipse to Android studio and I would like to build jar from library project.

I successfully generated jar in Android studio but the problem is that inside jar there is not included reference library.

Can you please help How to do reference Some other library inside main library so it will include in Android Studio Generated jar.

I reviewed all link but it is only related to single library. But my question is different.

I have tried following code but not getting classes of dependent library in my jar

task jarTask(type: Jar) {
    baseName="my-sdk-android"
    from 'src/main/java'
}

task createJarWithDependencies(type: Jar) {
    baseName = "my-sdk-android-jar-with-dependencies"

    from {
        configurations.compile.collect {
            it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it)
        }
    }

    with jarTask
}

configurations {
    jarConfiguration
}

artifacts {
    jarConfiguration jarTask
}

I reviewed it but it is only for single library. My question is library inside other reference library. — Mobile Team ADR-Flutter, Sep 09 '15 at 13:29

Such an idea reffers to the gradle build system. You should not include an dependencie library in your actual library project. You should ship it seperately.

As this should be a library module, the end-project has to have a lits of its dependencies.

Anyway...

Add to build.gradle of library project:

// Exec Jar
task bundleJar(type: Jar) {
    from { configurations.compile.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) } }
    with jar
}

So it adds needed classes to the jar file.

My project has reference of a library so when generate jar of my project it should contain all class of that library. – Mobile Team ADR-Flutter Sep 12 '15 at 08:20
