Gradle sync failed: Plugin with id 'com.google.android.gms:play-services' not found

In one of my projects I need to use GoogleMaps and Firebase for notifications but the libraries of the service and the Firebase in place do not want to work.

change this:

to this:
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
check this for more info: https://developers.google.com/android/guides/google-services-plugin

You need to use
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

You have 2 errors:
In your buildscript block use the right plugin:
dependencies {
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.1.1'
// ...
}
Instead of classpath 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0'
Then at the bottom you have also to change the name of the plugin:
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
instead of:
apply plugin: 'com.google.android.gms:play-services'
Also don't use 2 buildscript blocks.
Just remove this block, and add the repository and the plugin in the previous block:
buildscript {
repositories {
maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
}
dependencies {
classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
}

DuplicateFileException in apk build using Kotlin

I am trying to build a basic app using Kotlin/Anko but I am getting the following duplicate file exception
Execution failed for task

}
}
allprojects {

task clean(type: Delete) {

And this is the basic code for the MainUI file
class MainUI : AnkoComponent<MainActivityKotlin> {
override fun createView(ui: AnkoContext<MainActivityKotlin>): View = with(ui) {
coordinatorLayout {
verticalLayout {
// maybe put some content here
}
floatingActionButton {

onClick {
ui.owner.startActivityForResult<MainActivityKotlin>(1)
}
}.lparams {
gravity = Gravity.BOTTOM or Gravity.END
}
}
}
}
And the content is set on MainActivityKotlin file using the method MainUI().setContentView(this) in its onCreatemethod.
I have tried deleting the gradle cache and building the project again but nothing works. Please let me know where am I going wrong?

Remove compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-android-extensions:$kotlin_version" from your gradle
Remove also all buildscript section from you app level gradle

Try this one:
compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"
compile ("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-android-extensions:$kotlin_version") {
transitive = false
}
Also you don't need the android-extensions dependency anymore, as it's bundled into the plugin. Just having the apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions' in your gradle is enough.

How to override android tests path with Gradle?

For historical reason instrumentation tests are not stored in androidTests directory as required and i can't change directories structure (actually whole app is tests for the library used). I was able to build and install apk with gradle, but no tests were found:
:app-tests:connectedDebugAndroidTest
Tests on test_avd(AVD) - 4.1.2 failed: Instrumentation run failed due to 'java.lang.ClassNotFoundException'
com.android.builder.testing.ConnectedDevice > No tests found.[test_avd(AVD) - 4.1.2] FAILED
No tests found. This usually means that your test classes are not in the form that your test runner expects (e.g. don't inherit from TestCase or lack #Test annotations).
:app-tests:connectedDebugAndroidTest FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app-tests:connectedDebugAndroidTest'.
> There were failing tests. See the report at: file:///Users/asmirnov/Documents/dev/src/project/app-tests/build/reports/androidTests/connected/index.html
Actually the tests are in src folder, written correctly and can be built/runned using Ant:
public abstract class BaseTest extends AndroidTestCase
{
...
public class AppInfoTest extends BaseTest
{
#Test
public void testAllProperties()
{
...
...
How can i make Gradle process src folder as android (instrumentation) tests?
Here is my current build.gradle file (it uses the experimental Android Gradle plugin version 0.7.2 because we have an NDK library):

Not completely sure this will work for your scenario, but you can update the root of the androidTest sourceSet like this
android {
sourceSets {
androidTest.setRoot('src')
}
}
There is also a test source set if it's just Java code, nothing Android specific.
You could also play around with the java.srcDir setting...
The above setting will look at these locations for your files.
<project>/<module>/src/AndroidManifest.xml
<project>/<module>/src/java
If you'd like to move both into the /src directory, you can use
sourceSets {
androidTest {
setRoot 'src'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
}
}
More Android Gradle details can be read at Configuring the Structure
You are welcome to debug these settings yourself with this setup
sourceSets {
androidTest {
setRoot 'src'
java.srcDirs = ['./src']
}
println "androidTest.manifest.srcFile = ${androidTest.manifest.srcFile}"
println "androidTest.java.srcDirs = ${androidTest.java.srcDirs}"
}
When you just clean the project, you'll see those lines being printed to the console

Instead of sources {} you should use sourceSets {} and the androidTest source set to customize the test source code location:
model { // Required for experimental plugin.
android {
sourceSets {
androidTest {
manifest.srcFile '../AppTest/AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['../AppTest/src']
res.srcDirs = ['../AppTest/res']
assets.srcDirs = ['../AppTest/assets']
}
}
}
}
Note that this not not apply to unit test. For unit test (like with Robolectric), use the test source set.

It was tricky solution: to use experimental gradle plugin to compile native code with NDK and regular gradle plugin for test app.
build.gradle:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
// experimental gradle plugin for the library to compile native code with NDK
classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle-experimental:0.7.2"
// regular gradle plugin for the tests
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2'
}
}
subprojects {
task listAllDependencies(type: DependencyReportTask) {}
}
library gradle (experimental):
apply plugin: 'com.android.model.library'
...
model {
android {
...
ndk {
moduleName = "library-jni"
cppFlags.add("-std=c++11")
cppFlags.add("-fexceptions")
stl = "c++_static"
abiFilters.addAll(['armeabi-v7a', 'x86']) // supported abis only
}
...
}
...
}
app/build.gradle (regular):
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
}
}
repositories {
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 16
buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "app.tests"
minSdkVersion 9
targetSdkVersion 16
versionCode 359
versionName "1.3"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
}
androidTest {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
jni {
dependencies {
project ":library"
}
}
}
}
}
dependencies {
androidTestCompile project(':library')
androidTestCompile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
}

issue with actionbarpull's gradle file

I have some build.gradle file this
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.5.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
compile 'com.github.chrisbanes.actionbarpulltorefresh:library:+'
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 18
buildToolsVersion '18'
defaultConfig {
targetSdkVersion 18
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
}
}
}
that throws this error :
A problem occurred configuring root project 'NewsFeeder'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':_DebugCompile'.
> Could not find any version that matches com.github.chrisbanes.actionbarpulltorefresh:library:+.
Required by:
:NewsFeeder:unspecified
But, this reference to chrisbanes's actionbarpulltorefresh seems to be correct : https://github.com/chrisbanes/ActionBar-PullToRefresh/wiki/QuickStart-Stock. How can it be since in this project is available in [maven central repo][1] ?
For information, I set in some local.propertiesfile sdk.dir=/home/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130522/sdk, which is the same that what echo $ANDROID_SDK returns

You need to tell gradle where it can look to find the dependency. If you want gradle to use the mavenCentral repository then add this to your build.gradle file:
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
The buildscript repositories is just for the build script dependencies, not project dependencies. You want to add the repositories entry at the outer most, or project, level.
Your build.gradle would look like:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.5.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
compile 'com.github.chrisbanes.actionbarpulltorefresh:library:+'
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 18
buildToolsVersion '18'
defaultConfig {
targetSdkVersion 18
}
sourceSets {
main {
manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
java.srcDirs = ['src']
res.srcDirs = ['res']
}
}
}

Is your Foo project in /Foo or /foo folder (note the upper case)? You may need to correct the include 'foo' to 'Foo'?
If that doesn't work, please paste the info or debug output of your Gradle build. If you're running AndroidStudio and don't have any output, go to the root of your project and run gradlew.bat assembleDebug --info (on Wins) or ./gradlew assembleDebug --info (on Linux/Mac) or --debug and paste the output here so we can see what went wrong exactly.
