When using compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2@aar', I get the following error:

I have to use compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2 instead.

[lampione]

Same happens to me, with the differnce that using compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2' won't compile.

I am too experiencing this issue. Seems like this issue has repeated, follow this answer in an older issue to resolve this issue -

https://github.com/passy/Android-DirectoryChooser/issues/65#issuecomment-202602924

Just make sure that you are adding repository URL to your top level gradle file's "allprojects" part.

[Yazon2006]

@rohannexialabs Actually not only repository URL should be added but also com.gu:option dependency.

[kojeomstudio]

I have the same problem. :(

[ghost]

me too. I just downloaded the lib and included it and I think I was okay.

[greysonp]

Copying the comment @rohannexialabs referred to:

repositories {
    maven { url 'http://guardian.github.com/maven/repo-releases' }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.gu:option:1.3'
    compile 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2@aar'
}

This fixed it for me.

[weity]

check out the option project manually is also a way.

[jaredsburrows]

Any update on this?

[passy]

No update from my end. Until the guardian decides to publish this library elsewhere or someone ports this to another compatible library we'll probably be stuck with the manual declaration.

[jaredsburrows]

Why rely on this then? Can you use either another library or no library?

Another library should be fine. This was the only one that was around back then, I'm sure there are other ones now. Happy to take a look at a PR about this.

From previous answers but with an https url and implementation instead of compile:

repositories {
    maven { url 'https://guardian.github.io/maven/repo-releases/' }
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.gu:option:1.3'
    implementation 'net.rdrei.android.dirchooser:library:3.2@aar'
}
