A simple library for validating user input in forms using annotations.
Features:
- Validate all views at once and show feedback to user. With one line of code.
- Live validation - check user input as he moves between views with immediate feedback.
- Extensible library - you can add your own validations or adapters for custom views.
With Gradle:
compile 'eu.inmite.android.lib:android-validation-komensky:0.9.4@aar'Manually:
- clone the project
- add it as library project in your IDE
First, annotate your views like this:
@NotEmpty(messageId = R.string.validation_name)
@MinLength(value = 3, messageId = R.string.validation_name_length, order = 2)
private EditText mNameEditText;Now you are ready to:
FormValidator.validate(this, new SimpleErrorPopupCallback(this));You will receive collection of all failed validations in a callback and you can present them to the user as you want.
Or simply use prepared callbacks (like SimpleErrorPopupCallback).
To start and stop live validation, simply call:
FormValidator.startLiveValidation(this, new SimpleErrorPopupCallback(this));
FormValidator.stopLiveValidation(this);Validations supported out of the box:
@NotEmpty(messageId = R.string.validation_name, order = 1)
private EditText mNameEditText;@MinLength(value = 1, messageId = R.string.validation_participants, order = 2)
private EditText mNameEditText;@MinValue(value = 2L, messageId = R.string.validation_name_length)
private EditText mEditNumberOfParticipants;@MinNumberValue(value = "5.5", messageId = R.string.validation_name_length)
private EditText mEditPotentialOfHydrogen;@RegExp(value = EMAIL, messageId = R.string.validation_valid_email)
private EditText mEditEmail;
@RegExp(value = "^[0-9]+$", messageId = R.string.validation_valid_count)
private EditText mEditCount;@DateInFuture(messageId = R.string.validation_date)
private TextView mTxtDate;@DateNoWeekend(messageId = R.string.validation_date_weekend)
private TextView mTxtDate;@Custom(value = MyVeryOwnValidator.class, messageId = R.string.validation_custom)
private EditText mNameEditText;Should you need to use the proguard, copy these rules:
-keepattributes *Annotation*
-keep class eu.inmite.android.lib.validations.form.annotations.** { *; }
-keep class * implements eu.inmite.android.lib.validations.form.iface.ICondition
-keep class * implements eu.inmite.android.lib.validations.form.iface.IValidator
-keep class * implements eu.inmite.android.lib.validations.form.iface.IFieldAdapter
-keepclassmembers class ** {
@eu.inmite.android.lib.validations.form.annotations.** *;
}
Jan Ámos Komenský was a famous Czech educator, father of modern education methods. Teachers tend to correct you, just like this library. You won't miss any errors in the user input.
