Create Aar File in Android Studio

Create aar file in Android Studio

If your library is set up as an Android library (i.e. it uses the apply plugin: 'com.android.library' statement in its build.gradle file), it will output an .aar when it's built. It will show up in the build/outputs/aar/ directory in your module's directory.

You can choose the "Android Library" type in File > New Module to create a new Android Library.

If you are still not seeing your aar file, select Build > Rebuild Project.

How to create new Android AAR in Android Studio

After days of unsuccessful head-banging with the IDE, I found an astoundingly simple solution in some Google results, namely:

1. Manually edit project/app/build.gradle
2. Change apply plugin: 'com.android.application' to apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
3. Remove the line specifying applicationId.
4. Build->Clean Project and Build->Rebuild Project.

Voila! New library app-debug.aar appears in project/app/build/outputs/aar/

I don't know where the name app-debug came from, but you can rename it afterwards if you like.

UPDATE 7/2/18

I omitted precursor steps to this procedure. They are

1. Create a base project however you normally do.

2. Delete classes and other stuff you don't need in the aar.

3. Follow the steps above.
