Usage
In XML
To set up a typeface you must specify the parameter robotoTypeface:
<com.devspark.robototextview.widget.RobotoTextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:robotoTypeface="roboto_light_italic"/>
or specify a set of parameters robotoFontFamily, robotoTextWeight and robotoTextStyle:
<com.devspark.robototextview.widget.RobotoTextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:robotoFontFamily="roboto"
app:robotoTextWeight="light"
app:robotoTextStyle="italic"/>
Set up typeface in code:
In Code
Using parameter typeface:
RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context);
RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(
textView,
RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACE_ROBOTO_LIGHT_ITALIC);
Using parameters fontFamily, textWeight and textStyle:
RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context);
RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(
textView,
RobotoTypefaces.FONT_FAMILY_ROBOTO,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_WEIGHT_LIGHT,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_STYLE_ITALIC);
With Span
Using parameter typeface:
RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(
context,
RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACE_ROBOTO_LIGHT_ITALIC);
Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text");
spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
Using parameters fontFamily, textWeight and textStyle:
RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(
context,
RobotoTypefaces.FONT_FAMILY_ROBOTO,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_WEIGHT_LIGHT,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_STYLE_ITALIC);
Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text");
spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
Roboto Inflater
To apply roboto typeface for original TextView (like a Calligraphy) you must attach inflater in your Activity class in the #onCreate() method.
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
RobotoInflater.attach(this);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
and specify the typeface in xml:
<TextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:robotoTypeface="roboto_light_italic"
tools:ignore="MissingPrefix"/>
Note: Popular IDE's (Android Studio, IntelliJ) will likely mark this as an error despite being correct. You may want to add tools:ignore="MissingPrefix" to either the View itself or its parent ViewGroup to avoid this. You'll need to add the tools namespace to have access to this "ignore" attribute. xmlns:tools=" http://schemas.android.com/tools". See https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=65176.
Gradle
If you intend to use is not all fonts, the extra fonts can be removed.
android.applicationVariants.all{ variant ->
variant.mergeAssets.doLast {
File fonts = file("$variant.mergeAssets.outputDir/fonts")
if (fonts.exists()) {
for (File file : fonts.listFiles()) {
if (file.getName().contains("RobotoSlab")) {
println("delete " + file.getName() + " font")
file.delete()
}
}
}
}
}
