How to add android library dependency to a kotlin module?

Question

I have a simple project that contains two modules within android my app. One is a kotlin module and another an android library. I would like to add the android library as a dependency to the kotlin module. However when I try I get an error Could not resolve project :androidlibrary.

Is there any way to implement an android library into a kotlin module?

kotlin module Build.gradle

plugins {
    id 'java-library'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm'
}

java {
    sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_7
    targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_7
}

dependencies {
    implementation(project(":androidlibrary"))
}

android library Build.gradle

plugins {
    id 'com.android.library'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'
}

android {
...
}

dependencies {
...
}

Taken from Gradle could not resolve project :linkedin-sdk

Just change:

implementation(project(":androidlibrary"))

to

compile project(path: ':androidlibrary', configuration: 'default')
