Couldn't locate lint-gradle-api-26.1.2.jar for Flutter project

I'm new to Flutter and trying to run the example project when you create a new one. When trying to run it, I have this issue:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

I understand it's trying to get the file "lint-gradle-api-26.1.2.jar" from the jcenter repository but when following the link I get this:

{
  "errors" : [ {
    "status" : 404,
    "message" : "Could not find resource"
  } ]
}

So I added the Google repository in my build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://dl.google.com/' }
        google()
        jcenter()
    }

...and I also succeed to get the file by following this link:

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/lint/lint-gradle-api/26.1.2/lint-gradle-api-26.1.2.jar

...but I'm still getting the same error when trying to run my project, whether it is by using Visual Studio Code, Android Studio or with the CLI.

How do I force Gradle to download the file from the link I've found?

Here's how my build.gradle file looks like:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        //maven { url 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/lint/lint-gradle-api/26.1.2/lint-gradle-api-26.1.2.jar' }
        repositories {
            google()
            maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
            mavenCentral()
            jcenter()
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.2'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }
}

repositories {
    google()
    maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
    mavenCentral()
    jcenter()
}

....
Solution

  • I solved the problem by moving:

    maven {
    url 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2'
}

    in the top of:

    jcenter()

    in the file: .flutter/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/flutter.gradle:

        buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2'
        }
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.2'
    }
}
