#RobotoViews Style your android views with Google's very own Roboto font and/or its Condensed variant.

All Typfaces created are lazily loaded and stored in a cache. If a Typeface is called more than once, it will be pulled from the cache instead.

##Setup

Import RobotoViews and add it as a dependency to your project.

##Usage

A fully working example is included in the sample folder ###Via XML layout

1. Include one of the widgets into your layout file. The font attribute can be any of the values listed further below

<com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoTextView
    ...
    roboto:font="regularItalic" />

2. If you haven't already, include the namespace for the library in your layout's parent view

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:roboto="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    ...>
  

That's it. The view once inflated will have the typeface specified in the font attribute.

###Via Java code

RobotoViews can be instantiated at runtime by calling the constructor new RobotoButton(Context, RobotoFont). The RobotoFont class is an enum containing all the possible RobotoFonts for you to use, simply pass in one of its instances.

RobotoButton robotoButton = new RobotoButton(ActivityMainRobotoSample.this, RobotoFont.LIGHT);
robotoButton.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

All of the RobotoViews have a method named setRobotoFont(RobotoFont) so you can change the font of the RobotoView at any time

RobotoTextView text = (RobotoTextView) findViewById(R.id.my_text_view);
...
text.setRobotoFont(RobotoFont.CONDENSED_REGULAR);

###Usage on standard Android Views This can be done in java code only. If you don't want to use the custom views, that's fine too. If your view has a setTypeface(Typeface) method, the library exposes a method for you to grab (and cache) any of the fonts that come with this library

e.g.

Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.my_button);
button.setTypeface(RobotoUtils.getTypeface(context, RobotoFont.LIGHT_ITALIC));

Picking the right font

If you are using XML, you can use any of the following classes com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoButton com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoCheckBox com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoCheckedTextView com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoEditText com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoRadioButton com.rperryng.roboto.RobotoTextView

with any of the following values for the font attribute

regular regularBold regularItalic regularBoldItalic medium mediumItalic black blackItalic light lightItalic thin thinItalic condensedRegular condensedRegularBold condensedRegularItalic condensedRegularBoldItalic condensedLight condensedLightItalic

The RobotoFont class exposes the following instances for you to use where necessary.

REGULAR REGULAR_BOLD REGULAR_ITALIC REGULAR_BOLD_ITALIC MEDIUM MEDIUM_ITALIC BLACK BLACK_ITALIC LIGHT LIGHT_ITALIC THIN THIN_ITALIC CONDENSED_REGULAR CONDENSED_REGULAR_BOLD CONDENSED_REGULAR_ITALIC CONDENSED_REGULAR_BOLD_ITALIC CONDENSED_LIGHT CONDENSED_LIGHT_ITALIC

Omitting unneeded .ttf files

In order to save previous KB in your app, you may wish to remove unused .ttf files.

1. In your downloaded copy of the library, navigate to res/raw and remove any of the .ttf files you dont need.

2. Navigate to com.rperryng.roboto.common.RobotoFont enum class and remove the corresponding enum value.

3. (optional) open the res/attrs.xml file and remove the corresponding enum value for the font attribute
