README

[Deprecated]

Fonts in XML are now supported by the Android support library as of 26.0, including in styles and themes. I recommend using the support library and IDE integration for all your modern font needs! https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/look-and-feel/fonts-in-xml.html#using-support-lib

fontbinding

Easy custom fonts in XML using data binding.

No setup required, no extra Java code, and no custom views.

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:font="@{`alegreya`}"
    />

This example includes a simple font cache that automatically loads names from your assets/fonts folder and lazy-loads typefaces. Just drag and drop font files and use them in XML by their normal or lowercase filenames (e.g. "Roboto-Italic" or "roboto-italic" for Roboto-Italic.otf). That's it!

Data Binding

Make sure to use the data binding framework to inflate your layout.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main);
    }
}

Custom Naming

You can set custom names for your fonts, but you don't have to.

FontCache.getInstance().addFont("alegreya", "Alegreya-Regular.ttf");

Note:

It's not currently possible to define custom attributes in styles using data binding. If you require this, check out Calligraphy by Chris Jenx.
