How to add flurry into android studio project? [duplicate]
Question
How can I add flurry into my android studio project, I haven't done this before, so I am not entirely sure where to add the files? I have FlurryAnalytics.jar
and how to use in my app?
thanx
Solution
Here is how I added Flurry:
Add FlurryAnalytics_3.3.2.jar (or latest) to libs folder (create this directory if necessary)
Add
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
to the dependencies in your project's build.gradledependencies { compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar') }
or Gradle + Jcenter
compile 'com.flurry.android:analytics:6.2.0'
Add appropriate permissions to AndroidManifest.xml:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
Make sure a versionName attribute is specified in AndroidManifest.xml to have data reported under that version name, such as:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:versionName="1.0">
Optionally, add you Flurry API key to a constants file, such as AppConstants.java:
public class AppConstants { public static final String FLURRY_API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"; // where YOUR_API_KEY is your actual API key from FLURRY similar to 1ABCDE23EFGH4IJKLMN5O
Add the Flurry onStartSession and onEndSession to each activity in your app:
@Override protected void onStart() { super.onStart(); FlurryAgent.onStartSession(this, AppConstants.FLURRY_API_KEY); } @Override protected void onStop() { super.onStop(); FlurryAgent.onEndSession(this); }
I still had some issues at this point and selected a hint recommended by Android Studio while viewing my build.gradle file. It changed gradle-1.8-bin.zip to gradle-1.8-bin.zip to gradle-1.8-all.zip in gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties:
distributionUrl=http\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.8-all.zip
After this, my project built successfully and started to log Flurry events. FYI, it takes a few hours to see the logs in Flurry.
This is a good reference for Android Studio and gradle
And of course, Flurry provided the details for much of this as well.
