Android Gradle plugin 0.7.0: “duplicate files during packaging of APK”

Question

Using Android Gradle plugin 0.7.0 with the following build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependenci         


        

Answer 1

It's more than one error

Under apply plugin: 'android-library'

add this ::

android {
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/ASL2.0'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
    }
}

In case of duplicate files it's easy, look inside the JAR under the META-INF dir and see what's causing the error. It could be multiple. In my case Couchbase Lite plugin. As you add more plugins, you will need more exceptions
