Amazing! I have one question though. I have an aar that contains important resources. If I use jarOnly would the resources be filtered out?

#23

Are those .XML ones ? :thinking:

Hello @WatermelonIce ,

Yes, the support for library files is limited to .jar files, for AARs, extension developers commonly extracts and uses its classes.jar file, which contains the classes for the .aar, currently it’s not possible in appinventor ( or any of its distros ) to use the android resources which an .aar file bundles. Some maven artifacts which is being downloaded by this library is possibly an .aar file, and since it’s not supported for extensions, the library would only use the .aar's classes.jar, and exclude other unsupported files, such as the resources, from the library.

Thanks. So it seems I will have to wait for aar support. I think someone did a PR a year ago but they still haven’t merged it.

i think your dep resolver should also support jitpack.io

Hello @luv.ak.tech ,
Yes, it’s good to support by default, i would consider it in a next update. However, you can always import it as a custom repository.
In the GUI, check Home → Options → Custom Repositories
In the CLI, see the add-repository command.

Hey @Mohamed_Tamer this is a really awesome and helpful tool. Thanks a lot for this. I have one suggestion. As you know that there are progaurd rules in aar files. Would be great if the tool collects and stores those rules from aar files and creates a single text file with all of those rules.
