## Getting Started

#### In your build.gradle

Maven Central
```groovy
dependencies {
implementation 'io.github.hariprasanths:floating-toast:0.1.1'
}
```

jcenter
```groovy
dependencies {
implementation 'hari.floatingtoast:floatingtoast:0.1.1'
}
```

## Usage

#### Create Floating Toasts

First, instantiate a FloatingToast object with one of the makeToast() methods.
This method takes three parameters: the view which calls the toast (recommended) or the activity context,
the text message, and the duration for the toast.
It returns a properly initialized FloatingToast object.
You can display the toast notification with show(),
as shown in the following example:

```java
Button button = findViewById(R.id.button);
String text = "Hello toast!";
int duration = FloatingToast.LENGTH_MEDIUM;

button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {

FloatingToast toast = FloatingToast.makeToast(button, text, FloatingToast.LENGTH_MEDIUM);
toast.show();
}
});
```

You can also chain your methods and avoid holding on to the Toast object, like this:

```java
FloatingToast.makeToast(button, text, FloatingToast.LENGTH_MEDIUM).show();
```

You can use the activity context to instantiate the FloatingToast object, like this:

```java
FloatingToast.makeToast(MainActivity.this, text, FloatingToast.LENGTH_MEDIUM).show();
```

```
NOTE: Always use the view (which was used to call the toast) to
create the FloatingToast object wherever possible rather than
using the activity context.
```

An example with all the customisations:

```java
Typeface customFont = Typeface.createFromAsset(getContext().getAssets(), "fonts/custom_font.ttf");

//Duration of 1250 millis
//Gravity - Mid Top (Default is Center)
//Fade out duration of 1000 millis (Default is 750 millis)
//Text size - 12dp (Default is 16dp)
//Background blur - On (Default is On)
//Float distance - 30px (Default is 40px)
//Text color - White
//Text shadow - On (Default is Off)
//Custom font (No custom font is provided by default)
FloatingToast.makeToast(button, text, FloatingToast.LENGTH_LONG)
.setGravity(FloatingToast.GRAVITY_MID_TOP)
.setFadeOutDuration(FloatingToast.FADE_DURATION_LONG)
.setTextSizeInDp(12)
.setBackgroundBlur(true)
.setFloatDistance(FloatingToast.DISTANCE_SHORT)
.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"))
.setShadowLayer(5, 1, 1, Color.parseColor("#000000"))
.setTextTypeface(customFont)
.show(); //Show toast at the specified fixed position
```

You can also set the toast's position as dynamic(i.e. show the toast at the touch
position) like this:

```java
FloatingToast.makeToast(button, text, FloatingToast.LENGTH_MEDIUM)
.showAtTouchPosition();
```
