# Android Drag Dismiss Activity



Another implementation of the drag-to-dismiss `Activity` pattern. This one is inspired by Nick Butcher's [Plaid](https://github.com/nickbutcher/plaid/blob/master/app/src/main/java/io/plaidapp/ui/widget/ElasticDragDismissFrameLayout.java) implementation.



The project has a simple API and is a pretty powerful and beautiful implementation of the pattern. This library is used in some of my apps ([Talon for Twitter](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.klinker.android.twitter_l) and [Pulse SMS](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xyz.klinker.messenger)). It has been abstracted from Jacob Klinker and I's [article-android](https://github.com/klinker41/article-android/) library, which is an awesome readability style in-app web browser.



This library provides an elastic layout that can dismiss an `Activity` with a `RecyclerView` or a regular `Activity`. Whenever the user swipes up or down, from the bottom or the top of the content, the `DragDismissActivity` will finish.



## Including It In Your Project



![animation](artwork/animation.gif)



This project was designed to be very easy to implement on top of your existing `Activities`.



To include it in your project, add this to your module's `build.gradle` file:



```groovy

dependencies {

	...

	compile 'com.klinkerapps:drag-dismiss-activity:1.7.0'

}

```



*Note: The normal way to implement the drag-dismiss functionality is by extending the two provided `Activities`: `DragDismissActivity` and `DragDismissRecyclerViewActivity`. If you would rather not do that, I have provided a delegate for each of these use-cases, that you can use: `DragDismissDelegate` and `DragDismissRecyclerViewDelegate`. To see an example of the delegate's usage, check out the [AbstractDragDismissActivity](https://github.com/klinker24/Android-DragDismissActivity/blob/master/library/src/main/java/xyz/klinker/android/drag_dismiss/activity/AbstractDragDismissActivity.java).*



### Replacing an Activity



This library is meant to replace your `AppCompatActivity`. I will set up all the drag-dismiss features for you, and wrap your content in a boilerplate UI that contains a `Toolbar` and a `ScrollView` for your content.



`DragDismissActivity` is easy to implement:



1. Within your `AndroidManifest.xml`, on your `activity` elements replace whatever theme you are currently using with `android:theme="@style/DragDismissTheme`.

2. Instead of extending `AppCompatActivity`, extend the `DragDismissActivity`.

3. You won't want to override `Activity#onCreate`. Instead, override `DragDismissActivity#onCreateContent`. This method acts a bit like `Fragment#onCreateView`:



```java

@Override

protected View onCreateContent(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup parent, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_scrollable, parent, false);



    // do your normal view setup and Activity#onCreate lifecycle actions here,

    // instead of within the Activity#onCreate.



    return v;

}

```



For a very simple example, please see [DismissableActivityNormalContent Sample](https://github.com/klinker24/Android-DragDismissActivity/blob/master/sample/src/main/java/xyz/klinker/drag_dismiss/DismissableActivityNormalContent.java).



### Replacing an Activity with a RecyclerView



If you are using an `Activity` that just has a `RecyclerView` in it, then this library can do all the heavy-lifting for you, all you will need to do is set it up with a `RecyclerView.Adapter` and a `LayoutManager`.



`DragDismissRecyclerViewActivity` is easy to implement as well:



1. Within your `AndroidManifest.xml`, on your `activity` elements replace whatever theme you are currently using with `android:theme="@style/DragDismissTheme`.

2. Instead of extending `AppCompatActivity`, extend the `DragDismissRecyclerViewActivity`.

3. You won't want to override `Activity#onCreate`. Instead, to set up your `RecyclerView`, override `DragDismissRecyclerViewActivity#setupRecyclerView`:



```java

@Override

protected void setupRecyclerView(RecyclerView recyclerView) {

    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));

    recyclerView.setAdapter(new SampleAdapter());



    // do any other RecyclerView or Activity setup that needs to be done

}

```



For a very simple example, please see [DismissableActivityRecyclerView Sample](https://github.com/klinker24/Android-DragDismissActivity/blob/master/sample/src/main/java/xyz/klinker/drag_dismiss/DismissableActivityRecyclerView.java).



### Customizing the Boilerplate UI



After implementing the steps above, you will get your old `Activity`, with drag-to-dismiss functionality at the top and the bottom of the layout, great! You probably want to customize it further though.



I have provided a [DragDismissBundleBuilder](https://github.com/klinker24/Android-DragDismissActivity/blob/master/library/src/main/java/xyz/klinker/android/drag_dismiss/DragDismissBundleBuilder.java) that allows you to add customization to the `DragDismissActivity` through extras on an `Intent`:



```java

Intent dragDismissActivity = new Intent(this, MyDragDismissActivity.class);



new DragDismissBundleBuilder(context)

    .setTheme(DragDismissBundleBuilder.Theme.LIGHT)	// LIGHT (default), DARK, BLACK, DAY_NIGHT, SYSTEM_DEFAULT

    .setPrimaryColorResource(R.color.colorPrimary)	// defaults to a semi-transparent black

    .setToolbarTitle("Normal Activity Sample")		// defaults to null

    .setShowToolbar(true)				// defaults to true

    .setShouldScrollToolbar(true)       // defaults to true

    .setFullscreenOnTablets(false)      // defaults to false, tablets will have padding on each side

    .setDragElasticity(DragDismissIntentBuilder.DragElasticity.NORMAL)  // Larger elasticities will make it easier to dismiss.

    .setDrawUnderStatusBar(false)       // defaults to false. Change to true if you don't want me to handle the content margin for the Activity. Does not apply to the RecyclerView Activities

    .build(dragDismissActivity);



// do anything else that you want to set up the Intent

// dragDismissActivity.putBoolean("test_bool", true);



startActivity(dragDismissActivity);

```



### Adding a ProgressBar



Have content that won't be loaded immediately? No problem.



While content is loading, you can call `DragDismissActivity#showProgessBar` to automatically show the progress indicator. When the content is done loading, just call `DragDismissActivity#hideProgessBar` to remove it.



For a simple example usage, check out the [DismissableActivityNormalContent](https://github.com/klinker24/Android-DragDismissActivity/blob/master/sample/src/main/java/xyz/klinker/drag_dismiss/DismissableActivityNormalContent.java) sample.
