What's the shadow plugin? Can you find it in https://mvnrepository.com/? — pal, Jul 17 '17 at 22:00
@pal It's a very common library. https://github.com/johnrengelman/shadow — OneCricketeer, Jul 17 '17 at 22:12

Looks like you only have mavenCentral() in your repositories based on the search paths provided.

You need JCenter instead.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
