MarkdownView is an Android webview with the capablity of loading Markdown text or file and display it as HTML, it uses MarkdownJ and extends Android webview.
This is a Screenshot from the demo app where it shows a markDown text in the upper half of the screen and when you hit update it will reload the text to MarkdownView (lower half of the screen).
##How to use it?
- To add MarkdownView to your project, include the jar, or the source code.
- Simple usage is to set the whole activity to a MarkdownView by Adding the following to your onCreate method:
MarkdownView markdownView = new MarkdownView(this);
setContentView(markdownView);
- Or you can also add it to your layout by using
<us.feras.mdv.MarkdownView android:id="@+id/markdownView" />and referance it in your activity:
MarkdownView markdownView = (MarkdownView) findViewById(R.id.markdownView);
##Loading MarkDown text or file (local and online):
-
loadMarkdownData(String text) Using this method will result in loading md string to the MarkdownView and displaying it as HTML.
-
loadMarkdownUrl(String url) You can use this method to load local or online files.
To load a locale file, you have to add it to your assets folder and pass a url that start with "file:///android_asset/" :
markdownView.loadMarkDownData("file:///android_asset/myFile.md");
To load a file on the web you need to pass the full url :
markdownView.loadMarkDownData("http://www.my-site.com/myFile.md");
