The version should match the git version tag, or the most recent version noted in the changelog. An example dependency declaration is:

repositories {
   maven { url "https://appboy.github.io/appboy-android-sdk/sdk" }
   ...
}

dependencies {
   compile 'com.appboy:android-sdk-ui:3.1.+'
   ...
}

To install the UI library as an AAR file to your local maven repository, run the install task with ./gradlew install. You can reference it with groupId com.appboy and artifactId android-sdk-ui. The version should match the git version tag, or the most recent version noted in the changelog. An example dependency declaration is:

repositories {
   mavenLocal()
   ...
}

dependencies {
  compile 'com.appboy:android-sdk-ui:3.1.+'
}

1. Make sure the ANDROID_HOME environment variable is set to the location of your installed SDK or you have a local.properties file which defines the sdk.dir property. You can check this by running echo $ANDROID_HOME, or echo %ANDROID_HOME% in Windows.
2. To assemble the UI library and the Droidboy APK, run ./gradlew assemble (use gradlew.bat on Windows). You can find assembled files in the build/ subdirectories of the android-sdk-ui and droidboy projects. You can also use the installDebug task if you have a device or emulator connected to adb and want to run Droidboy or Hello-Appboy. You can see other available tasks by running ./gradlew tasks.
