Can't find Android Support Repository in SDK M

Question

I am following this: https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/adding-packages.html At step 2, I can't seem to find an option to download Android Support Repository in the Extras folder.

In the extras folder, you can see there's no option to download it. Am I doing anything wrong?

Answer 1

Under Tools, select Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Platform-tools and update.

Once updated, restart your SDK Manager. Android Support Repository will now be available under Extras.

Answer 2

1) On the menu bar, select Packages and check obsolete packages

2) Now check for the support library

Answer 3

Now, it looks like the supporter library have been simply removed.

Tools installed

Extra library

In consequence, Bazel / Android support is now broken.

Answer 4

In my case it was renamed. But once I updated it just change the name.

Please follow this link

Answer 5

From the Android developers website: "The support libraries are now available through Google's Maven repository. We no longer support downloading the libraries through the SDK Manager, and that functionality will be removed soon..."

The support libraries can be found here: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.android.support

Once you find the library you want, download the .aar file then use the steps provided by rsp1984 in THIS post to convert the .aar file into the library.

Answer 6

kehers answer worked before but now that library has been renamed to:

Local Maven repository for Support Libraries and its also under Extras.
