# UniversalFontComponents
*UniversalFontComponents* is a library that allows you to set a custom font in xml for all your TextViews. You can also set a library-provided Roboto font so that your fonts are consistent across different versions of Android.
## Importing in your project
### Gradle
By standard Gradle use:
```
dependencies {
compile 'com.raizlabs:UniversalFontComponents:1.0.1.1'
}
```
## Usage
First, you have to initialize the library.
In your Application's onCreate method, call
```java
UniversalFontComponents.init(this);
```
to initialize the FontMap.
Setting a universal font for your app can be done one of two ways:
1. Use one of the library-provided roboto fonts, or
2. Inject your own custom font into the view.
### Built-In Fonts
To use one of the built-in roboto fonts, use one of the built in views in your layout.xml file and add the universalFont attribute with one of the built-in Roboto fonts specified:
```xml
```
### Custom Fonts
To use your own custom font:
1. Add your custom font file to your app's asset folder (../src/main/assets/ExampleCustomFont.ttf)
2. Use one of the built-in views in your layout.xml file and add the customFont attribute with the name of your custom font file specified:
```xml
```
The following components are currently provided by the library:
* UniversalFontTextView
* UniversalFontButton
* UniversalFontEditText
* UniversalFontRadioButton
* UniversalFontCheckBox
