## How to use

### Configuring your project dependencies

Add the library dependency in your build.gradle file.

```groovy

dependencies {

    ...

    compile 'com.txusballesteros:bubbles:1.2.1'

}

```

### Adding your first Bubble

Compose your Bubble layout, for example using a Xml layout file. Remember that the first view of your Bubble layout has to be a BubbleLayout view.

```xml

    

```

Create your BubblesManager instance.

```java

private BubblesManager bubblesManager;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

     bubblesManager = new BubblesManager.Builder(this)

                                        .build();

     bubblesManager.initialize();

    ...

}

@Override

protected void onDestroy() {

    bubblesManager.recycle();

    ...

}

```

Attach your Bubble to the window.

```java

BubbleLayout bubbleView = (BubbleLayout)LayoutInflater

                                    .from(MainActivity.this).inflate(R.layout.bubble_layout, null);

bubblesManager.addBubble(bubbleView, 60, 20);

```

### Configuring your Bubbles Trash

If you want to have a trash to remove on screen bubbles, you can configure the

layout of that.

Define your trash layout Xml.

```xml

```

Configure the trash layout with your BubblesManager builder.

```java

private BubblesManager bubblesManager;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

     bubblesManager = new BubblesManager.Builder(this)

                                        .setTrashLayout(R.layout.bubble_trash_layout)

                                        .build();

     bubblesManager.initialize();

    ...

}

```
