How can we add local jar file dependency to build gradle file

Question

So I have tried to add my local .jar file dependency to my build.gradle file. But I did not succeed. Can anyone guide?

Answer 1

You can refer the below code if you need to take that .jar from a local directory, 

Add next to your module gradle (Not the app gradle file):

repositories 

{
   flatDir 

   {
       dirs 'libs'
   }
}


dependencies 

{
   compile name: 'gson-2.2.4'
}
