Auth0 gradle dependency error

Question

I am trying to work with Auth0 in my project and when I try to include it in the build.gradle file I get an error. I've tried adding the following:

compile 'com.auth0.android:auth0:1.10.0'

and

compile 'com.auth0.android:auth0:1.+'

I get the following error:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
> Manifest merger failed with multiple errors, see logs

I ran gradlew build --stacktrace and got this:

14:31:51.285 [ERROR] [org.gradle.internal.buildevents.BuildExceptionReporter] * What went wrong:
14:31:51.285 [ERROR] [org.gradle.internal.buildevents.BuildExceptionReporter] Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.

What am I doing wrong?

Update

Opened AndroidManifest.xml and found this message in the Merged Manifest

Merging Errors: Error: Attribute data@host at AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution but no value for <auth0Domain> is provided. app main manifest (this file) Error: Attribute data@scheme at AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution but no value for <auth0Scheme> is provided. app main manifest (this file)

Answer 1

Answering my own question here: The merged manifest had the error

Attribute data@host at AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution but no value for <auth0Domain> is provided. app main manifest (this file) Error: Attribute data@scheme at AndroidManifest.xml requires a placeholder substitution but no value for <auth0Scheme> is provided. app main manifest (this file)

Basically saying that auth0Domain and auth0Scheme needed values declared.

I needed to enter the line

manifestPlaceholders = [auth0Domain: "@string/com_auth0_domain", auth0Scheme: "demo"]

in the build.gradle file and then it compile just fine.

Basically follow through instructions before deciding that you're stuck, those instructions were here.
