KotlinAndroidViewBindings

Bindings for properties with Kotlin types (Boolean, String) to layout traits (visibility, text).

Library allows to bind properties of basic types (String, Int, functional) to view element properties. Example:

var email: String by bindToTextView(R.id.emailView)
val emailRequestFocus: ()->Unit by bindToRequestFocus(R.id.emailView)
var emailErrorId: Int? by bindToErrorId(R.id.emailView)

This allows to make clear and simple MVP. Example:

LoginView.kt

interface LoginView {
    var progressVisible: Boolean
    
    var email: String
    val emailRequestFocus: ()->Unit
    var emailErrorId: Int?
 
    var password: String
    val passwordRequestFocus: ()->Unit
    var passwordErrorId: Int?
    
    var loginButtonClickedCallback: ()->Unit
}

LoginActivity.kt

class LoginActivity : AppCompatActivity(), LoginView {
    
    override var progressVisible by bindToLoading(R.id.progressView, R.id.loginFormView)
    
    override var email by bindToTextView(R.id.emailView)
    override val emailRequestFocus by bindToRequestFocus(R.id.emailView)
    override var emailErrorId by bindToErrorId(R.id.emailView)
    
    override var password by bindToTextView(R.id.passwordView)
    override val passwordRequestFocus by bindToRequestFocus(R.id.passwordView)
    override var passwordErrorId by bindToErrorId(R.id.passwordView)
    
    override var loginButtonClickedCallback by bindToClick(R.id.loginButton)
    
    //...
}

Presenter.kt

class LoginPresenter(val view: LoginView) {

    fun onCreate() {
        view.loginButtonClickedCallback = { attemptLogin() }
    }
    
    //...
}

This makes presenters fully unit-testable while keeping Activities short and simple. Full example here. Library usage in wider context here.

Installation

To add KotlinAndroidViewBindings to the project, add to build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.MarcinMoskala:KotlinAndroidViewBindings:0.12'
}

While library is located on JitPack, remember to add to module build.gradle (unless you already have it):

repositories {
    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}

• Still MVP or already MVVM?
