An easy Android Edit Text converter that prevent loops made with Kotlin
FieldKonverter is an android edit text converter that can be used for make operations between multiple edit fields. This can be easily used as a currency converter, link inverter, text replacement or any other type of conversion that you want to do with 2 or more fields. The entire project is made in Kotlin and have a small size and footprint.
When you are doing a conversion between two or multiple edit fields you will face this problem: How to prevent the contents between the fields enter in a conversion loop? And what about multiple edit fields?
You could implement from scratch or use this small library that will make your like much more easier. It can be used with kotlin lambdas to make a conversion between 2 fields with only 3 lines of code.
// link inverter
FieldKonverter(editText,editText2) { from, to ->
from?.text.toString().reversed()
}
// translator (I use 3 in this example, but it could be N fields)
FieldKonverter(englishField,portugueseField,spanishField) { from, to ->
when(from.id) {
englishField.id -> {
when(to.id) {
portugueseField.id -> englishToPortuguese(from?.text) //return a string
spanishField.id -> englishToSpanish(from?.text) //return a string
}
}
portugueseField.id -> {
when(to.id) {
englishField.id -> portugueseToEnglish(from?.text) //return a string
spanishField.id -> portugueseToSpanish(from?.text) //return a string
}
}
spanishField.id -> {
when(to.id) {
englishField.id -> spanishToEnglish(from?.text) //return a string
portugueseField.id -> spanishToPortuguese(from?.text) //return a string
}
}
}
}
You can use the CurrencyKonverter
constructor to convert between two fields
CurrencyKonverter(
CurrencyField(editText1, 0.5, 25000.00), //it will convert any content to half of its value
CurrencyField(editText2, 2.0, 50000.00) //it will convert any content to double of its value
)
The third field of the CurrencyField is optional, so you can use something like: CurrencyField(editText1, 2.0)
You can even change the place decimal precision using the CurrencyKonverter
variable decimalPlaces
integer any time.
You can also also get your conversion rule from the backend, sending the content from the field when the text is changed and waiting for the response.
This will handle [ for you.
val asyncFieldConv = AsyncFieldKonverter(
field1, field2,
debounceTimeout = 500L, // this is in milliseconds
beforeDebounce = { _ -> runLoading() }, //run when the user change the field, like a loading
callback = callback()) //where do you will run the requests (it is suspend function)
