I am trying to make Travis build my Android project. It fails when it tries to download the library for ConstraintLayout
. Do you know what I have to do to make it work?
My .travis.yml
is this:
language: android
jdk:
- oraclejdk8
android:
components:
- platform-tools
- tools
- build-tools-23.0.2
- android-23
- extra-android-support
- extra-android-m2repository
- extra-google-m2repository
My build.gradle
is:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "my.example.bdd"
minSdkVersion 9
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha2'
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2'
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support.test:runner:0.5'
androidTestCompile 'com.android.support:support-annotations:23.4.0'
}
And the error I get on Travis is:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':app:_debugApk'.
> Could not find com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha2.
Searched in the following locations:

file:/usr/local/android-sdk/extras/google/m2repository/com/android/support/constraint/constraint-layout/1.0.0-alpha2/constraint-layout-1.0.0-alpha2.jar
Any idea how to fix this? Is it even possible to build ConstraintLayout
with Travis?
Sadly, adding the licence hashes don't work anymore.
The simplest solution that worked for me (in 2018
I have the same issue with
com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha9
. In my case I directly tried to create the license file in Travis this way:But since I don't have permissions to write on
$ANDROID_SDK
and there is no support forsudo
, I have no idea what to do next.The only option I see is to wait until Google includes it in the license or downgrade to
alpha1
...After the new release of the Support Library version 25.0.0, the Constraint Layout Alpha1 library apparently doesn't work anymore on TravisCI. Using that version was the only workaround at the moment.
Now I found a new workaround to use the new Alpha9 version. In your
.travis.yml
file add:Do not forgot to accept all the licences on the main
android
object:There is an open issue https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=212128
In short,
com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha1
is bundled into Google Repository but1.0.0-alpha2
and later version is only available from gradle plugin which expects a license text being placed in$HOME/.android/license/
(if not found, try$ANDROID_HOME/licenses
).You can copy the license text file from your local machine (after agreed to the license from SDK Manager provided by Android Studio 2.2) to the CI server as mentioned in the issue. Or downgrade to
1.0.0-alpha1
to fix the problem.Workaround to accept the license is no longer required as explained here if you directly accept it:
Full working sample using constraint-layout codelab repository for Android API level 22 to 25.
Your
build.gradle
is attempting to pull incom.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha2
. My SDK Manager only offers me1.0.0-alpha1
(Rev 32 of the Android Support Repository). Perhaps Travis CI also only has1.0.0-alpha1
as well.Since I presume that you have
1.0.0-alpha2
working on your development machine, I am not quite certain what is going on here. There might be a glitch in the distribution packaging of the Android Support Repository or something.
