the pathwaysI'm having a lot of trouble moving source code from github to Android Studio and I think a big part of the problem is with the gradle build tool files. I have never worked with android studio before and don't have a whole lot of coding experience in general. The gradle sync error I'm getting right now is

Error:(57,0) Plugin with id 'com.android.library' not found. 

I feel like part of the problem might be the way in which i added the actionbarsherlock library. I had to add a lot of folders and so my pathways might be causing problems. Is that a possibility? I can include screenshots if that may be more helpful.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application' dependencies { compile fileTree(include: '*.jar', dir: 'libs') compile project(':library') } android { compileSdkVersion 19 buildToolsVersion "25.0.1" sourceSets { main { manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml' java.srcDirs = ['src'] resources.srcDirs = ['src'] aidl.srcDirs = ['src'] renderscript.srcDirs = ['src'] res.srcDirs = ['res'] assets.srcDirs = ['assets'] } // Move the tests to tests/java, tests/res, etc... instrumentTest.setRoot('tests') // Move the build types to build-types/<type> // For instance, build-types/debug/java, build-types/debug/AndroidManifest.xml, ... // This moves them out of them default location under src/<type>/... which would // conflict with src/ being used by the main source set. // Adding new build types or product flavors should be accompanied // by a similar customization. debug.setRoot('build-types/debug') release.setRoot('build-types/release') } buildTypes { debug{ debuggable = true } } 

}
