I am trying to work on an android app using Android Studio and I want to use the SlidingMenu github project in my app. This github project appears to be related to Maven (Disclosure: I've never used Maven before).

I want to be able to reference its classes in my Android Studio project. I tried to create a new module, but that it creates its own directory structure. I want to just import the existing file structure of this github project (so I don't change anything related to it).

Can anyone tell what is the recommended way to do this. Thanks.

if this library can be found in maven central search, you can just go to

  • file

  • project structure

  • while selected in the left "app" under modules go to Dependecies tab

  • click + button on the right and choose library dependency and search for your lib.(there is another sliding menu lib then yours i think)

  • use it in your code

otherwise:

if you want to add the library you posted, download it and go to

  • file
  • project structure
  • click + button (top left corner this time)
  • in the new window select "import gradle project " choose the folder of your lib (if it will not do this, choose the library folder inside it(idk this lib)). i think it will import your lib
  • then go to dependencies tab

  • click + button and choose add module dependency this time choose your lib and your done

  • use it in your code

have fun
