Introduction

FuriganaTextView is a Textview for Android that supports rendering of furigana characters above Japanese kanji. The TextView currently supports two xml attributes app:contains_ruby_tags" which is a boolean value and tells the FuriganaTextView that the text which is set contains <ruby> tags. The second attribute app:furigana_text_color takes a color and can be used to color the furigana separately from the main text.

Examples

Using FuriganaTextView in a Xml layout file.

   <se.fekete.furiganatextview.furiganaview.FuriganaTextView
       android:layout_width="match_parent"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:text="サンシャイン６０の&lt;ruby&gt;展望台&lt;rt&gt;てんぼうだい&lt;/rt&gt;&lt;/ruby&gt;が&lt;ruby&gt;新&lt;rt&gt;あたら&lt;/rt&gt;&lt;/ruby&gt;しくなる"
       android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Title"
       android:textColor="@color/colorAccent"
       app:contains_ruby_tags="true"
       app:furigana_text_color="@color/colorPrimary" />

Using FuriganaTextView in a Kotlin or Java file.

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        
        val furiganaTextView = findViewById(R.id.text_view_furigana) as FuriganaTextView?
        furiganaTextView!!.setFuriganaText("サンシャイン６０の<ruby>展望台<rt>てんぼうだい</rt></ruby>が<ruby>新<rt>あたら</rt></ruby>しくなる")
    }
}
