Including android library in flutter app - Plugin with id 'com.android.library' not found

I'm creating a flutter ebook reader app using a package named epub_viewer that uses Folioreader for reading ebooks. but I need to make some customizations in the main library Folioreader for my project so I've tried to add Folioreader as a library for making my customizations and testing the package.
this is the original ebpub_viewer build.gradle dependencies part:
dependencies {
implementation "com.jideguru:folioreader:0.6.2"
.....
}
So i changed this to :
dependencies {
//implementation "com.jideguru:folioreader:0.6.2"
implementation project(':folioreader')
....
}
And putting the Folioreader inside the project using android studio module import but i got some errors:
Build file '/home/user/Applications/flutter/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/epub_viewer-0.2.5/folioreader/build.gradle' line: 1
A problem occurred evaluating project ':folioreader'.
> Plugin with id 'com.android.library' not found.
Can anybody guide me on how to solve this problem? or maybe a better solution for editing Folioreader from and source and test it in the final flutter app? thanks.

Error:(44, 13) Failed to resolve: org.achartengine:achartengine:1.2.0 [duplicate]

I have to create an application that makes extensive use of charts.
Reading the web I chose achartengine that seems to have everything I need.
I downloaded the jar file, I plugged in the libs folder, I selected "add to library" and I lunch the gradlew clean.
Result in the sources where I do the import of org.achartengine.xxxx I always returned the error that fails to resolve symbols .
Do you have suggestions?
Thank you

I am able to use this library in my Android Studio project, this topic explains how to add AChartEngine repo to your project.
What I did:
Added following to project-wide build.gradle (one from the project root):
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven {
url "https://repository-achartengine.forge.cloudbees.com/snapshot/"
}
}
}
For every module that uses the library, add this to its build.gradle (you may put this to the top-level build.gradle if it should be included in all modules):
dependencies {
...
compile group: 'org.achartengine', name: 'achartengine', version: '1.2.0'
}
Now I can use the library in the project, I see the classes in code assist popups and build runs as succeeds.

It seems like the new version (1.2.0) is not available for download anymore in the http://www.achartengine.org/ site. and that's why the gradle/maven method doesn't work (or the snapshot file was removed).
I succeeded using and adding it to my project by downloading the jar file from here:

How do I use another library in my app?

The title is a little misleading but I honestly don't know how to word it in any other way. This is my project structure:
I want to use the highlighted (fasteranimationscontainer-master) in my current app that I'm working on. I imported it by putting the jar file in my library folder then adding it to my library through Android Studio. But I try to create an object of that imported library, it doesn't show up/import.
I'm still learning how to use android studio so any help would be much appreciated!

1. Library with only the Source Code
To include a library with only the source code (like FasterAnimationsContainer) to your project, you only need to import it as a module from File -> New-> Import Module in Android Studio:
There should be a dialog for the project folder, enter the path where your library reside.
Then you need to add the module to your app build.gradle as a dependency:
android {
...
dependencies {
...
compile project(':fasteranimationscontainer')
...
}
}
Now you can use it in your project.
2. Library from Maven or JCenter
To add dependencies to your project where the library has uploaded to maven or jcenter, you need to modify your app build.gradle file and add extra lines configuring the packages you require. For example, for certain Google or Android, dependencies look like:
android {
...
dependencies {
// Google Play Services
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.+'
// Support Libraries
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.1'
}
}
Try to always read the library README first.
Suggestion:
If you still learning using Android Studio, you can read Using Android Studio. Then read Getting Started with Gradle, because Android Studio is tightly related with Gradle.

Imported module in Android Studio can't find imported class

I recently downloaded the ViewPagerIndicator library and imported it into android studio. After adding it to my project I get a rendering error "The following classes could not be found:" and points to com.viewpagerindicator.IconPageIndicator.
The steps I took were Files->Import Module->'library name', Project Structure -> Dependencies -> + the imported module. Then to my layout xml file I added the <com.viewpagerindicator.IconPageIndicator />, after that I got the missing class problem.
It compiles just fine and I went through all of the build.gradle and settings.gradle files and compared them to what they should be online.
MyApp->build.gradle has compile project(':library') under dependencies
settings.gradle has include ':library' with no build errors.

First of all, you must import your library project by following that path:
File --> New --> Import Module
After you have imported the library project successfully, you must check your build.gradle file inside your project's folder if the following line is present at the "dependencies" section:
implementation project(':NameOfTheLibProject')
Then your project must be built successfully.

I found that my issue was the Android Plugin Version under Project Structure --> Project was different to the version my plugins all used. Once I aligned them to the same version, I could see all my classes from my imported module.
Took me hours :(

I had the same problem. I just did: Invalidate / Restart ..

I too had trouble importing module as it was not appearing in list of modules. And way it worked for me is manually entering it in settings.gradle this way:
include ':app', 'module_name'
And in build.gradle
compile project(':module_name')

In my case, I did add in app gradle:
// Nearly deprecated.
compile project(':NameOfTheLibProject')
// Or
implementation project(':NameOfTheLibProject')
but it only works when I change
compileSdkVersion
minSdkVersion
targetSdkVersion
in app and the other modules are the same.

The following solution worked for me,just two steps.
Go to your project structure on android studio, select project from left side.Change Android plugin version to Gradle version press ok.
If error occurs after synchronization again go to project structure and select project.undo the android plugin version like before.Gradle will align the library and make the class visible to XML files.

The issue in my case was different compile and target SDK version,
mentioned in my main app module and your added lib module.
Once I matched both of them it worked perfectly.
So just open build.gradle file of app-level and lib module-level check for the SDK version.

settings.gradle
dependencies {
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.3.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0'
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.0.4'
implementation project(':wheel') // "Wheel" - you're project path name
}

In case you just changed the name of your project in the pubspec.yaml File, make sure to change the import names as well, because they will stay the same and therefore wont find the new named directory.
Ex. change this to :
import 'package:previousName/backend/connector/userConnector.dart';
to this:
import 'package:newName/backend/connector/userConnector.dart';
As far as i know, there is no terminal command for that, only find-in-files-replace :(
