AttributesDispatcher

It is a lightweight library which helps to create a custom view.

The library is 100% reflection-free.

Usage

AttributesDispatcher introduces a few annotations:

NOTE: Annotated methods and fields must not be private.

Annotation	Required	Description
`@CustomView`	✓	Register Custom View. Annotation @CustomView require package name of application
`@Attribute`		Annotate a method which performs the action that requires one or more attributes
`@BooleanAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @BooleanAttr and a custom boolean format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `false`.
`@ColorAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @ColorAttr and a custom color format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `0`.
`@DimenAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @DimenAttr and a custom dimension format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `0f`.
`@FloatAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @FloatAttr and a custom float format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `0f`.
`@IntAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @IntAttr and a custom integer format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `-1`.
`@ReferenceAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @ReferenceAttr and a custom reference format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `-1`.
`@StringAttr`		Annotate fields or parameters with @StringAttr and a custom string format attribute for Attribute to find and automatically cast the corresponding attribute in your view. By default `""`

Example

1. Create custom declare-styleable

<resources>
    <declare-styleable name="MyCustomView">
        <attr name="custom_text" format="string" />
        <attr name="custom_color" format="color" />
    </declare-styleable>
</resources>

2. In your layout

    <com.ebr163.android.attributesdispatcher.view.MyCustomView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:custom_text="Text1"
        app:custom_color="@android:color/holo_blue_light" />

3. Attach annotations

@CustomView("com.ebr163.android.attributesdispatcher")
public class MyCustomView extends EditText {

    @StringAttr("custom_text")
    protected String text;
    
    @ColorAttr(value = "custom_color", defaultValue = Color.GREEN)
    public int color;

    public MyCustomView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }
    
    @Attribute
    protected void setCustomAttr(@ColorAttr("custom_color") int color) {
        this.setTextColor(color);
    }
}

4. Delegate to generated class

    public MyCustomView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        MyCustomViewAttribute.init(this, attrs);
    }

    public MyCustomView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
        MyCustomViewAttribute.init(this, attrs);
    }

Note

The name of the custom view and the name of the declare-styleable should be the same
The parameters of the method with @Attribute must be annotated with

Installation

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

And on your app module build.gradle:
