# Alerter - An Android Alerter Library, now in Kotlin!
This library aims to overcome the limitations of Toasts and Snackbars, while reducing the
complexity of your layouts.[](https://android-arsenal.com/api?level=14) [](https://android-arsenal.com/details/1/5302) [](http://androidweekly.net/issues/issue-245)

## General
With simplicity in mind, the Alerter employs the builder pattern to facilitate easy integration into any app.
A customisable Alert View is dynamically added to the Decor View of the Window, overlaying all content.## Install
Include the JitPack.io Maven repo in your project's build.gradle file
```groovy
allprojects {
repositories {
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
```Then add this dependency to your app's build.gradle file
```groovy
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.tapadoo:alerter:$current-version'
}
```# Usage

From an Activity -
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.show()
```Or from a Fragment -
```kotlin
Alerter.create(activity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.show()
```To check if an alert is showing -
```kotlin
Alerter.isShowing()
```To hide a currently showing Alert -
```kotlin
Alerter.hide()
```# Customisation
### Background Colour
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.setBackgroundColorRes(R.color.colorAccent) // or setBackgroundColorInt(Color.CYAN)
.show()
```
### Icon
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setText("Alert text...")
.setIcon(R.drawable.alerter_ic_mail_outline)
.setIconColorFilter(0) // Optional - Removes white tint
.setIconSize(R.dimen.custom_icon_size) // Optional - default is 38dp
.show()
```
### On screen duration, in milliseconds
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.setDuration(10000)
.show()
```### Without title
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setText("Alert text...")
.show()
```
### Adding an On Click Listener
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.setDuration(10000)
.setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener {
Toast.makeText(this@DemoActivity, "OnClick Called", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
})
.show()
```
### Verbose text
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("The alert scales to accommodate larger bodies of text. " +
"The alert scales to accommodate larger bodies of text. " +
"The alert scales to accommodate larger bodies of text.")
.show()
```
### Custom Enter/Exit Animations
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@KotlinDemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.setEnterAnimation(R.anim.alerter_slide_in_from_left)
.setExitAnimation(R.anim.alerter_slide_out_to_right)
.show()
```### Visibility Callbacks
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@KotlinDemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setText("Alert text...")
.setDuration(10000)
.setOnShowListener(OnShowAlertListener {
Toast.makeText(this@KotlinDemoActivity, "Show Alert", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
})
.setOnHideListener(OnHideAlertListener {
Toast.makeText(this@KotlinDemoActivity, "Hide Alert", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
})
.show()
```### Custom Fonts and Text Appearance
```kotlin
Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
.setTitle("Alert Title")
.setTitleAppearance(R.style.AlertTextAppearance_Title)
.setTitleTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "Pacifico-Regular.ttf"))
.setText("Alert text...")
.setTextAppearance(R.style.AlertTextAppearance_Text)

Alerter.create(this@KotlinDemoActivity)
.setTitle(R.string.title_activity_example)
.setText("Alert text...")
.addButton("Okay", R.style.AlertButton, View.OnClickListener {
Toast.makeText(this@KotlinDemoActivity, "Okay Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
