The library was created in order to provide new animations for activities on Android. Using the ViewDragHelper class, it is possible to create smooth animations that allow full control of the view by the user.
This new component has been created using some concepts described on Flavien Laurent Blog and Denevell Blog.
This library can works on API 10 (but not tested yet).
You can use this library like a view, you just need to do the following:
-
- Add ''DraggerView'' view to your root layout and add two layouts inside it. You can add a shadow view if you want (the first one) and it needs to be invisible.
<com.github.library.DraggerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
dragger_layout:drag_view_id="@+id/drag_view"
dragger_layout:shadow_view_id="@+id/shadow_view"
dragger_layout:drag_position="top">
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/shadow_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/transparent"
android:visibility="invisible"/>
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/drag_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</com.github.library.DraggerView>
In your ''styles'' file, you need a config like this:
<style name="YourTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
<item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@null</item>
</style>
And your ''manifest'':
<activity
android:name="com.github.dragger.BaseActivity"
android:theme="@style/YourTheme"/>
Or, if you need it to be fast:
public class YourActivity extends DraggerActivity {
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setShadowView(R.layout.custom_shadow); //No necessary, use if you want.
setContentView(R.layout.layout_content);
}
}
This library uses nineoldandroids:2.4.0 and appcompat-v7:21.0.3, you have to provide these dependencies from your local artifact repository or from maven central repository.
One day I will release on MavenCentral, I haven't much time and had to deploy on jitPack
Into your build.gradle:
repositories {
maven {
url "https://jitpack.io"
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.ppamorim:Dragger:2324e5f2a5'
}
This was only possible because Pedro Vicente Gómez Sánchez helped me and I am very grateful for that! Thank you. :)
