Migrating to Gradle Plugin 3.0

I am migrating our project to the Gradle 3.0 plugin, I am going error by error a I am new in Gradle.
Now, I am facing this issue:
Error:Could not determine the dependencies of task ':ComponentsLib:mergeProdReleaseResources'.
> Could not resolve all task dependencies for configuration ':ComponentsLib:prodReleaseRuntimeClasspath'.
> Could not resolve project :Datastore.
Required by:
project :ComponentsLib
> Project :ComponentsLib declares a dependency from configuration 'releaseCompile' to configuration 'prodRelease' which is not declared in the descriptor for project :Datastore.
Here is the gradle.build for ComponentLib module:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
android {
flavorDimensions "default"
publishNonDefault true
compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.minSdkVersion
targetSdkVersion rootProject.ext.targetSdkVersion
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
multiDexEnabled true
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
}
}
productFlavors {
internal {
minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.debugMinSdkVersion
}
prod {
}
}
dexOptions {
preDexLibraries = false
javaMaxHeapSize "2g"
}
lintOptions {
quiet false
warningsAsErrors true
abortOnError true
checkReleaseBuilds false
textReport = true
htmlReport = false
xmlReport = false
ignore(rootProject.ext.lintIgnore as String[])
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
debugCompile project(path: ':Datastore', configuration: 'internalDebug')
releaseCompile project(path: ':Datastore', configuration: 'prodRelease')
}
And here is the gradle.build for Datastore module:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
android {
flavorDimensions "default"
publishNonDefault true
compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.minSdkVersion
targetSdkVersion rootProject.ext.targetSdkVersion
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
multiDexEnabled true
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
}
}
productFlavors {
internal {
minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.debugMinSdkVersion
}
prod {
}
}
dexOptions {
preDexLibraries = false
javaMaxHeapSize "2g"
}
lintOptions {
quiet false
warningsAsErrors true
abortOnError true
checkReleaseBuilds false
textReport = true
htmlReport = false
xmlReport = false
ignore(rootProject.ext.lintIgnore as String[])
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
debugCompile project(path: ':Core', configuration: 'internalDebug')
releaseCompile project(path: ':Core', configuration: 'prodRelease')
}
The modules are build in order -> ':Core', ':Datastore', ':ComponentsLib', ':Push',....
Any idea what is happening here?
Thanks.

I finally fixed it.
Porblem was that I had to rewrite
debugCompile project(path: ':Datastore', configuration: 'internalDebug')
releaseCompile project(path: ':Datastore', configuration: 'prodRelease')
to
instalation project(':Datastore')
because the new Gradle 3.0 plugin manages build process in the different way.

Before I generate signed APK to upload for google play store , I want to execute command line code. And by using that command line program i want to do some pre release activity like disable logs of NDK, change url to live website and etc. So how can I execute it before assembleLive or assembleRelease ? I don't want to execute that command line code before "assembleDebug". I want to execute it only before "assembleLive or assembleRelease".

I added below code to my gradle file and it works like a charm.
task prelivetask (type: Exec) {
commandLine 'cmd','/C', 'start', 'change.cmd'
}
tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->
if (task.name == 'assembleRelease' || task.name == 'assembleLive') {
task.dependsOn prelivetask
}
}

How to fix Manifest merger failed

I imported GoogleMapsV2WithActionBarSherlock eclipse project and encountered
Error:Execution failed for task ':googleMapsV2:processDebugManifest'.
Manifest merger failed : Attribute meta-data#com.google.android.gms.version#value value=() from
[GoogleMapsV2WithActionBarSherlock:androidmapsutils:unspecified]
AndroidManifest.xml:8:13-29 is also present at
[com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:11.0.2]
AndroidManifest.xml:20:66-119
value=(#integer/google_play_services_version). Suggestion: add
'tools:replace="android:value"' to element at
AndroidManifest.xml:6:9-8:32 to override.
Is anybody has a clue on what it is and how can I fix it?

Check your build.gradle(app) minSdkVersion 14 and
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:11.0.2'

add tools:replace="android:value" to your manifest to the end of <application> tag

Please help to sort it out! :(

At first you should add
defaultConfig
{
// Enabling multidex support.
multiDexEnabled true
}
Open Module:app .You missing multiDexEnabled true in here .
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.eje_c.rajawalicardboard"
minSdkVersion 16
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
multiDexEnabled true
}
Read Official Document about MultiDex

The option 1 was adding multiDexEnabled true
But you told it didn't work at all, you can try excluding group group: 'com.android.support', module: 'multidex' now which means in the compilation for example change
compile project(':rajawalicardboard')
To
compile project(':rajawalicardboard'){
exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'multidex'
}
Don't only try on this, do the same in compile project(':lib_panorama_max') if only the changes above didn't work. Try removing compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1' too.
