README
ContextMenu
You can easily add awesome animated context menu to your app.
Check this project on dribbble
Check this project on Behance
Usage:
For a working implementation, have a look at the app
module
1. Clone repository and add sources into your project or use Gradle:
Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Add the dependency
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.Yalantis:Context-Menu.Android:1.1.4'
}
2. Create list of MenuObject
, which consists of icon or icon and description.
You can use any drawable, resource, bitmap, color
as image:
menuObject.drawable = ...
menuObject.setResourceValue(...)
menuObject.setBitmapValue(...)
menuObject.setColorValue(...)
You can set image ScaleType
:
menuObject.scaleType = ScaleType.FIT_XY
You can use any resource, drawable, color
as background:
menuObject.setBgResourceValue(...)
menuObject.setBgDrawable(...)
menuObject.setBgColorValue(...)
Now You can easily add text appearance style for menu titles:
In your project styles create style for text appearance
(For better visual effect extend it from TextView.DefaultStyle):
<style name="TextViewStyle" parent="TextView.DefaultStyle">
<item name="android:textStyle">italic|bold</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#26D0EB</item>
</style>
And set it's id to your MenuObject :
val bitmapDrawable = BitmapDrawable(
resources,
BitmapFactory.decodeResource(resources, R.drawable.icn_3)
)
val menuObject = MenuObject("Add to friends").apply {
drawable = bitmapDrawable
menuTextAppearanceStyle = R.style.TextViewStyle
}
You can use any color
as text color:
menuObject.textColor = ...
You can set any color
as divider color:
menuObject.dividerColor = ...
Example:
val close = MenuObject().apply { setResourceValue(R.drawable.icn_close) }
val send = MenuObject("Send message").apply { setResourceValue(R.drawable.icn_1) }
val addFriend = MenuObject("Add to friends").apply {
drawable = BitmapDrawable(
resources,
BitmapFactory.decodeResource(resources, R.drawable.icn_3)
)
}
val menuObjects = mutableListOf<MenuObject>().apply {
add(close)
add(send)
add(addFriend)
}
3. Create newInstance
of ContextMenuDialogFragment
, which received MenuParams
object.
val menuParams = MenuParams(
actionBarSize = resources.getDimension(R.dimen.tool_bar_height).toInt(),
menuObjects = getMenuObjects(),
isClosableOutside = false
// set other settings to meet your needs
)
// If you want to change the side you need to add 'gravity' parameter,
// by default it is MenuGravity.END.
// For example:
val menuParams = MenuParams(
actionBarSize = resources.getDimension(R.dimen.tool_bar_height).toInt(),
menuObjects = getMenuObjects(),
isClosableOutside = false,
gravity = MenuGravity.START
)
val contextMenuDialogFragment = ContextMenuDialogFragment.newInstance(menuParams)
4. Set menu with button, which will open ContextMenuDialogFragment
.
override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu?): Boolean {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu)
return true
}
override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem?): Boolean {
item?.let {
when (it.itemId) {
R.id.context_menu -> {
showContextMenuDialogFragment()
}
}
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
}
5. Add menu item listeners.
contextMenuDialogFragment = menuItemClickListener = { view, position ->
// do something here
}
contextMenuDialogFragment = menuItemLongClickListener = { view, position ->
// do something here
}
Customization:
For better experience menu item size should be equal to ActionBar
height.
newInstance
of ContextMenuDialogFragment
receives MenuParams
object that has the fields:
menuObjects
- list of MenuObject objects,
animationDelay
- delay in millis after fragment opening and before closing, which will make animation smoother on slow devices,
animationDuration
- duration of every piece of animation in millis,
isClosableOutside
- if menu can be closed on touch to non-button area,
isFitSystemWindows
- if true, then the default implementation of fitSystemWindows(Rect) will be executed,
isClipToPadding
- true to clip children to the padding of the group, false otherwise.
The last two parameters may be useful if you use Translucent parameters in your theme:
<item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
To stay Context Menu
below Status Bar set fitSystemWindows
to true and clipToPadding
to false.
