How to add .aar dependency in library module?

Question

I am having one .aar file of one library module.
I want to use it as a library or dependency in my other project's library module.
How do I do it?

I tried options provided at below links:

It works only if I add .aar reference in my project's application module. But not working in library module.

Thanks.

Follow this setting and you will able to add .aar dependency to library module

build.gradle (Project: ....)

allprojects {     repositories {         jcenter()         mavenCentral()         flatDir {             dirs 'libs'             dirs project(':library_module').file('libs')         }     } } 

build.gradle (Module: app)

dependencies {     ...     compile project(':library_module') } 

build.gradle (Module: library_module)

dependencies {     ...     compile(name:'aar_file_name', ext:'aar') } 

settings.gradle (Project Settings)

include ':app', ':library_module'
