Installation

To add PopNavigator to your project:

1.Add Jitpack to your project build.gradle file.

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

2.Add the dependency to your app build.gradle file.

dependencies {
 implementation 'com.github.poppinjay13:PopNavigator:$popNavigatorVersion'
}

Note that replacing $popNavigatorVersion with the code for the latest commit would work as well

3.Syncing the project's gradle should allow you to use the library in your project.

Usage

A straight forward implementation would be to add it to your activity's XML as

    <com.poppinjay13.popnavigator.PopNavigator
        android:id="@+id/popNavigator"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="75dp"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/>

In your activity:

PopNavigator popNavigator = findViewById(R.id.poppinjay13_navbar);
popNavigator.addMenuItem(PopNavigator.BASE_EXPLORE);
popNavigator.addMenuItem(PopNavigator.BASE_NOTIFY);
popNavigator.addMenuItem(PopNavigator.BASE_USER);

The package comes predefined with a few animations out of the box hence PopNavigator.$name provides the animation specified.

Menu items are loaded in the order in which you add them to the menu.

A sample apk file will be uploaded soon to allow for previews as well as updates to functionality.

Customization

You can customize most of the properties of the popNavigator as it extends a LinearLayout and all LinearLayout methods can be used.

Custom animations can be added simply by uploading the json file into your res/raw folder then referencing it using

  popNavigator.addItem(R.raw.my_animation);

Support

The PopNavigator library is maintained and improved on nights and weekends and if it helps you out please consider supporting the developers by sponsoring a coffee or milkshake.

Feel free to fork the repo and contribute, star and follow to stay updated on releases.

Each release provides an apk to allow for installation and testing of the library on a basic basis.
