Unable to update gradle dependency for a library

Question

This is what i originally had in my build.gradle file.

    dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.1'
    compile 'de.hdodenhof:circleimageview:2.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.6.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.amulyakhare:com.amulyakhare.textdrawable:1.0.1'
    compile 'com.github.clans:fab:1.6.1'
    compile 'joda-time:joda-time:2.8.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.afollestad:material-dialogs:0.7.9.1'
    compile 'com.wdullaer:materialdatetimepicker:1.5.3'
    compile 'com.android.support:palette-v7:23.0.1'
}

The library Material Dialog has been updated so i am trying to reflect the same in my gradle file.The library says i should add it like this.

    dependencies {
    compile('com.afollestad.material-dialogs:core:0.8.1.0@aar') {
        transitive = true
    }
}

So i tried this but it refuses to rebuild the project when i try this,with an error saying "failed to resolve:com.afollestad.material-dialogs:core:0.8.1.0"

    dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.1'
    compile 'de.hdodenhof:circleimageview:2.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.6.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.amulyakhare:com.amulyakhare.textdrawable:1.0.1'
    compile 'com.github.clans:fab:1.6.1'
    compile 'joda-time:joda-time:2.8.2'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.wdullaer:materialdatetimepicker:1.5.3'
    compile 'com.android.support:palette-v7:23.0.1'
    compile('com.afollestad.material-dialogs:core:0.8.1.0@aar') {
        transitive = true
    }
}

Could someone tell me what i am doing wrong here.

Answer 1

It should be like this

App build.gradle

dependencies {
    compile('com.afollestad.material-dialogs:core:0.8.1.0@aar') {
        transitive = true
    }
}

Project build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.3'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }
}
