I cloned the repository and I tried to open it with Android studio and got nowhere, what is a proper way to open this project with android studio 3.1.3?

@abdurahmanadilovic I am also using Studio 3.1.x but (obviously) I can't see the same problem. Please provide more information, otherwise I think this is an issue with your machine/configuration.

I tried to clone the project with and without android studio with no effect.

In the project explorer if I select android nothing shows up if I select Project view this is only what appears in the explorer

I guess the build.gradle.kts might cause this issues since android studio is looking for build.gradle without the .kts extension?

Oh, that's because you didn't import it from Gradle properly. Ctrl + E to get to the Gradle sidebar. Then click the + button to add the root module and start a sync. If that doesn't work, close the project and delete the .idea folder. Then choose import from existing sources and go through the Gradle flow.

So this happens if I try to import a gradle project. It detects multiple android / java modules and none of them are runnable. If I understood you correctly I should select import project then select gradle, instead of "Open an existing Android Studio project"?

In the second step, you should have clicked the Import project from external model option. Be sure to delete the .idea folder again before importing.

I managed to build the project by selecting "import project from external model", now everything works, thanks for helping me out.

FYI: I am using AS 3.2C18 and since there is an existing repo-based file within the .idea directory:

  • .idea/codeStyleSettings.xml

Importing via Gradle fails to import the project properly.

Deleting the .idea directory and re-importing from external model works fine

And then, of course, doing to git checkout -- .idea/codeStyleSettings.xml to get the code styles back.

What worked for me was

On Android Studio

Open the settings.gradle file

include your project

include ':myproject'

@ashomokdev

To open the project you need to have Gradle installed on your PC. Then
Download repo FirebaseUI-Android from github.
In your Android Studio File -> New -> Import Project -> FirebaseUI-Android-master Path -> Import project from external model -> Gradle (!) -> Use local gradle distribution

If it not helps, add local.properties file to the root of FirebaseUI-Android-master with next line (edited for you) sdk.dir=/home/yuliia/Android/Sdk

Thanks for the recent update @ashomokdev ! I've followed your steps and am unfortunately running into the following build error message.

@abdurahmanadilovic, unfortunately this is still an issue for my machine on Android Studio 3.2.1 as well as others. May you please re-open this ticket.

@sugoireed , where in the directories can you find the name of the project name to include in the settings.gradle?

Implementation

  1. git clone git@github.com:firebase/FirebaseUI-Android.git
  2. Android Studio: File > New > Import Project > FirebaseUI-Android path > Import project from external model > Gradle > Use local gradle distribution > Select Yes to override existing .Idea file > Select Configure when Android framework is detected dialog is displayed.
  3. Once I received the build error above, I followed your advice and added the local.properties file to the root FirebaseUI-Android directory. I found the Android SDK path in terminal and used the pwd command to retrieve the path: sdk.dir=/Users/adamhurwitz/Library/Android/sdk
  4. I attempted re-importing after adding the local.properties file with the same build error.

Attempted Solutions

I've also attempted the following variations in the import process:

  1. Deleting the .idea file before importing as well as overwriting the file.
  2. All of the below variations were tested with both file paths 1) File > New > Import Project > FirebaseUI-Android path > ... and 2) File > New > Import Project > app path > ....
  3. File > New > Import Project > file_path > Create project from existing sources > ...
  4. File > New > Import Project > file_path > Import project from external model > Android Gradle > ... (different build error message).

Doing a simple 'sync with gradle files' solved my problem :D

Close your project on Android Studio, then delete .idea folder, then open open your project.

Same problem: lost gradle, github is useful to me about interesting code here, but the projects implementation and cloning is very complicate, I see this in multpipe github blogs like this, sorry Microsoft

# FirebaseUI for Android — UI Bindings for Firebase

[![FirebaseOpensource.com](https://img.shields.io/badge/Docs-firebaseopensource.com-orange.svg)](
https://firebaseopensource.com/projects/firebase/firebaseui-android
)
[![Actions Status][gh-actions-badge]][gh-actions]

FirebaseUI is an open-source library for Android that allows you to
quickly connect common UI elements to [Firebase](https://firebase.google.com) APIs.

A compatible FirebaseUI client is also available for [iOS](https://github.com/firebase/firebaseui-ios).

1. [Dependencies](#dependencies)
   1. [Compatibility](#compatibility-with-firebase--google-play-services-libraries)

   1. [Installing](#installing-locally)
   1. [License agreements](#contributor-license-agreements)
   1. [Process](#contribution-process)

## Usage

FirebaseUI has separate modules for using Firebase Realtime Database, Cloud Firestore,
Firebase Auth, and Cloud Storage. To get started, see the individual instructions for each module:

* [FirebaseUI Auth](auth/README.md)
* [FirebaseUI Firestore](firestore/README.md)
* [FirebaseUI Database](database/README.md)
* [FirebaseUI Storage](storage/README.md)

## Installation

FirebaseUI is published as a collection of libraries separated by the
Firebase API they target. Each FirebaseUI library has a transitive
dependency on the appropriate Firebase SDK so there is no need to include
those separately in your app.

In your `app/build.gradle` file add a dependency on one of the FirebaseUI
libraries.

```groovy
dependencies {
    // FirebaseUI for Firebase Realtime Database
    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-database:8.0.2'

    // FirebaseUI for Cloud Firestore
    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-firestore:8.0.2'

    // FirebaseUI for Firebase Auth
    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:8.0.2'

    // FirebaseUI for Cloud Storage
    implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-storage:8.0.2'
}
```

If you're including the `firebase-ui-auth` dependency, there's a little
[more setup](auth/README.md#configuration) required.

After the project is synchronized, we're ready to start using Firebase functionality in our app.

### Upgrading

If you are using an old version of FirebaseUI and upgrading, please see the appropriate
migration guide:

* [Upgrade from 7.2.0 to 8.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-8.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 6.4.0 to 7.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-7.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 5.1.0 to 6.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-6.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 4.3.2 to 5.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-5.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 3.3.1 to 4.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-4.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 2.3.0 to 3.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-3.0.md)
* [Upgrade from 1.2.0 to 2.x.x](./docs/upgrade-to-2.0.md)

## Dependencies

### Compatibility with Firebase / Google Play Services libraries

FirebaseUI libraries have the following transitive dependencies on the Firebase SDK:
```
firebase-ui-auth
|--- com.google.firebase:firebase-auth
|--- com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth

firebase-ui-database
|--- com.google.firebase:firebase-database

firebase-ui-firestore
|--- com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore

firebase-ui-storage
|--- com.google.firebase:firebase-storage
```

You can see the specific dependencies associated with each release on the 
[Releases page](https://github.com/firebase/FirebaseUI-Android/releases).

### Upgrading dependencies

If you would like to use a newer version of one of FirebaseUI's transitive dependencies, such
as Firebase, Play services, or the Android support libraries, you need to add explicit
`implementation` declarations in your `build.gradle` for all of FirebaseUI's dependencies at the version
you want to use. Here are some examples listing all of the critical dependencies:

#### Auth

```groovy
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:$X.Y.Z"

implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-extensions:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.browser:browser:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.cardview:cardview:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "com.google.android.material:material:$X.Y.Z"
```

#### Firestore

```groovy
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:$X.Y.Z"

implementation "androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:$X.Y.Z"
```

#### Realtime Database

```groovy
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-database:$X.Y.Z"

implementation "androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:$X.Y.Z"
implementation "androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:$X.Y.Z"
```

#### Storage

```groovy
implementation "com.google.firebase:firebase-storage:$X.Y.Z"

implementation "androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:$X.Y.Z"
```


## Sample app

There is a sample app in the [`app/`](app) directory that demonstrates most
of the features of FirebaseUI. Load the project in Android Studio and
run it on your Android device to see a demonstration.

Before you can run the sample app, you must create a project in
the Firebase console. Add an Android app to the project, and copy
the generated google-services.json file into the `app/` directory.
Also enable [anonymous authentication](https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/android/anonymous-auth)
for the Firebase project, since some components of the sample app
requires it.

If you encounter a version incompatibility error between Android Studio
and Gradle while trying to run the sample app, try disabling the Instant
Run feature of Android Studio. Alternatively, update Android Studio and
Gradle to their latest versions.

A note on importing the project using Android Studio: Using 'Project from 
Version Control' will not automatically link the project with Gradle 
(issue [#1349](firebase/FirebaseUI-Android#1349)). 
When doing so and opening any `build.gradle.kts` file, an error shows up: 
`Project 'FirebaseUI-Android' isn't linked with Gradle`. To resolve this 
issue, please `git checkout` the project manually and import with `Import 
from external model`.

## Snapshot builds

Like to live on the cutting edge?  Want to try the next release of FirebaseUI before anyone else?
FirebaseUI hosts "snapshot" builds on oss.jfrog.org.

Just add the following to your `build.gradle`:

```groovy
repositories {
  maven { url "https://oss.jfrog.org/artifactory/oss-snapshot-local" }
}
```

Then you can depend on snapshot versions:

```groovy
implementation 'com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:$X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT'
```

You can see which `SNAPSHOT` builds are avaiable here:
https://oss.jfrog.org/webapp/#/artifacts/browse/tree/General/oss-snapshot-local/com/firebaseui

Snapshot builds come with absolutely no guarantees and we will close any issues asking to troubleshoot
a snapshot report unless they identify a bug that should block the release launch. Experiment
at your own risk!

## Contributing

### Installing locally

You can download FirebaseUI and install it locally by cloning this
repository and running:

```sh
./gradlew :library:prepareArtifacts publishToMavenLocal
```
