Deprecated :cry:
----------

This project is deprecated in favor of the [native implementation](https://developer.android.com/preview/features/fonts-in-xml.html) introduced in Android O.

Compatibility
-------------

This library is compatible from API 14 (Android 4.0).

Download
--------

Gradle:

```groovy
compile 'com.github.johnkil.android-robototextview:robototextview:4.0.0'
```

Maven:

```xml

com.github.johnkil.android-robototextview
robototextview
4.0.0
aar

```

Usage
-----

#### In XML

To set up a typeface you must specify the parameter `robotoTypeface`:

``` xml

```

or specify a set of parameters `robotoFontFamily`, `robotoTextWeight` and `robotoTextStyle`:
``` xml

```

Set up typeface in code:

#### In Code

Using parameter `typeface`:
``` java
RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context);
RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(
textView,
RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACE_ROBOTO_LIGHT_ITALIC);
```

Using parameters `fontFamily`, `textWeight` and `textStyle`:
``` java
RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context);
RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(
textView,
RobotoTypefaces.FONT_FAMILY_ROBOTO,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_WEIGHT_LIGHT,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_STYLE_ITALIC);
```

#### With Span

Using parameter `typeface`:
``` java
RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(
context,
RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACE_ROBOTO_LIGHT_ITALIC);
Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text");
spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
```

Using parameters `fontFamily`, `textWeight` and `textStyle`:
``` java
RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(
context,
RobotoTypefaces.FONT_FAMILY_ROBOTO,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_WEIGHT_LIGHT,
RobotoTypefaces.TEXT_STYLE_ITALIC);
Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text");
spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
```

#### Roboto Inflater

To apply roboto typeface for original TextView (like a [Calligraphy][7]) you must attach inflater in your `Activity` class in the `#onCreate()` method.
```java
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
RobotoInflater.attach(this);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
```

and specify the typeface in xml:
``` xml

```

_Note: Popular IDE's (Android Studio, IntelliJ) will likely mark this as an error despite being correct. You may want to add `tools:ignore="MissingPrefix"` to either the View itself or its parent ViewGroup to avoid this. You'll need to add the tools namespace to have access to this "ignore" attribute. `xmlns:tools="
http://schemas.android.com/tools"`. See https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=65176._

Gradle
------

If you intend to use is not all fonts, the extra fonts can be removed.

```groovy
android.applicationVariants.all{ variant ->
variant.mergeAssets.doLast {
File fonts = file("$variant.mergeAssets.outputDir/fonts")
if (fonts.exists()) {
for (File file : fonts.listFiles()) {
if (file.getName().contains("RobotoSlab")) {
println("delete " + file.getName() + " font")
file.delete()
}
}
}
}
}
```
