# View Binding
This is an [**Android**](https://developer.android.com) library. It makes your life easier by reducing boilerplate code and avoiding redundant lines of code when are using the [ViewBinding](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/view-binding) feature on your Android project. This library show up in my head as an very good example on how the property delegation functionality from kotlin can help us.
-----
## Usage on Activity
Binding
> Yes, the ```viewBinding()``` method will bind to the root view for you.
```Kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(R.layout.activity_main) {
private val binding : ActivityMainBinding by viewBinding()
}
```
Inflating
> You don't need to set the layout calling ```setContentView()```. It will be done automatically.
```Kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private val binding : ActivityMainBinding by viewBinding(ViewBindingMethod.INFLATE)
}
```
## Usage on Fragment
Binding
> The ```viewBinding()``` method will track the fragment view lifecycle and destroy the ViewBinding instance for you.
```Kotlin
class MyFragment : Fragment(R.layout.fragment_layout) {
private val binding by viewBinding()
}
```
Inflating
> Using this way, it gives you the ```onCreateView```
```Kotlin
class MyFragment : Fragment() {
private val binding by viewBinding(ViewBindingMethod.INFLATE)
override fun onCreateView(
inflater: LayoutInflater,
container: ViewGroup?,
savedInstanceState: Bundle?
) = binding.root
}
```
## Installation
Add the following dependency to your `build.gradle` file:
```groovy
dependencies {
