A simple material design app intro with cool animations and a fluent API.
Very inspired by Google's app intros.
A demo app is available on Google Play:
Simple slide | Custom slide | Fade effect | Permission request |
---|---|---|---|
SimpleSlide.java |
FragmentSlide.java |
IntroActivity.java |
SimpleSlide.java |
material-intro is available on jitpack.io.
Add this in your root build.gradle
file (not your module build.gradle
file):
allprojects {
repositories {
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Add this in your module build.gradle
file:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.heinrichreimersoftware:material-intro:x.y.z'
}
The activity must extend IntroActivity
and have a theme extending @style/Theme.Intro
:
public class MainIntroActivity extends IntroActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Add slides, edit configuration...
}
}
<manifest ...>
<application ...>
<activity
android:name=".MainIntroActivity"
android:theme="@style/Theme.Intro"/>
</application>
</manifest>
(Unless mentioned otherwise, all of the following method calls should go in the Activity's onCreate()
.)
material-intro has fluent style builders for both a simple text/image slide, as seen in Google's apps, and for slides featuring a custom Fragment
or layout resource.
Feel free to submit an issue or pull request if you think any slide types are missing.
SimpleSlide
):Standard slide featuring a title, short description and image like Google's intros.
addSlide(new SimpleSlide.Builder()
.title(R.string.title_1)
.description(R.string.description_1)
.image(R.drawable.image_1)
.background(R.color.background_1)
.backgroundDark(R.color.background_dark_1)
.scrollable(false)
.permission(Manifest.permission.CAMERA)
.build());
FragmentSlide
):Custom slide containing a Fragment
or a layout resource.
addSlide(new FragmentSlide.Builder()
.background(R.color.background_2)
.backgroundDark(R.color.background_dark_2)
.fragment(R.layout.fragment_2, R.style.FragmentTheme)
.build());
(When using FragmentSlide
with a Fragment
, you should extend SlideFragment
to proxy navigation calls to the intro activity.)
Slide
):Base slide. If you want to modify what's shown in your slide this is the way to go.
Control left button behavior or hide/show it.
/* Show/hide button */
setButtonBackVisible(true);
/* Use skip button behavior */
setButtonBackFunction(BUTTON_BACK_FUNCTION_SKIP);
/* Use back button behavior */
setButtonBackFunction(BUTTON_BACK_FUNCTION_BACK);
Control right button behavior or hide/show it.
/* Show/hide button */
setButtonNextVisible(true);
/* Use next and finish button behavior */
setButtonNextFunction(BUTTON_NEXT_FUNCTION_NEXT_FINISH);
/* Use next button behavior */
setButtonNextFunction(BUTTON_NEXT_FUNCTION_NEXT);
Change the appearance of the "call to action" button:
/* Show/hide button */
setButtonCtaVisible(getStartedEnabled);
/* Tint button text */
setButtonCtaTintMode(BUTTON_CTA_TINT_MODE_TEXT);
/* Tint button background */
setButtonCtaTintMode(BUTTON_CTA_TINT_MODE_BACKGROUND);
/* Set custom CTA label */
setButtonCtaLabel(R.string.start)
/**/
setButtonCtaClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
});
Display the intro activity at fullscreen. This hides the status bar.
public class MainIntroActivity extends IntroActivity{
@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
setFullscreen(true);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
...
}
}
Make sure to call setFullscreen()
before calling super.onCreate()
Adjust how long a single slide scroll takes.
setPageScrollDuration(500);
(The page scroll duration is dynamically adapted when scrolling more than one position to reflect dynamic durations from the Material design docs.
The exact formula for calculating the scroll duration is duration * (distance + sqrt(distance)) / 2
.)
There are three ways to block navigation for a slide:
SlideFragment
(using a FragmentSlide
) by overriding canGoForward()
/canGoBackward()
methods.SimpleSlide
by setting SimpleSlide.Builder#canGoForward(boolean)
/SimpleSlide.Builder#canGoBackward(boolean)
.
(If at least one permission is set to the SimpleSlide
, navigation is automatically blocked until every permission is granted.)From your IntroActivity
by setting a NavigationPolicy
:
setNavigationPolicy(new NavigationPolicy() {
@Override public boolean canGoForward(int position) {
return true;
}
@Override public boolean canGoBackward(int position) {
return false;
}
});
Navigate through the intro manually using one of the following methods e.g. from a listeners callback. Each of them will respect blocked navigation settings.
/* Scroll to any position */
goToSlide(5);
/* Scroll to the next slide in the intro */
nextSlide();
/* Scroll to the previous slide in the intro */
previousSlide();
/* Scroll to the last slide of the intro */
goToLastSlide();
/* Scroll to the first slide of the intro */
goToFirstSlide();
Automatically scroll through the intro until user interacts with the intro.
/* Start an auto slideshow with 2500ms delay between scrolls and infinite repeats */
autoplay(2500, INFINITE);
/* Start an auto slideshow with default configuration */
autoplay();
/* Cancel the slideshow */
cancelAutoplay()
If any of the above returns false
when a user tries to navigate to a slide, a OnNavigationBlockedListener
callback is fired that you can use to display a message. Additionally you can add plain-old ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener
s to listen for page scrolls:
addOnNavigationBlockedListener(new OnNavigationBlockedListener() {
@Override public void onNavigationBlocked(int position, int direction) { ... }
});
addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener(){
@Override public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) { ... }
@Override public void onPageSelected(int position) { ... }
@Override public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) { ... }
});
You can check if the user canceled the intro (by pressing back) or finished it including all slides.
Just call up the activity using startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE_INTRO);
and then listen for the result:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_INTRO) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
// Finished the intro
} else {
// Cancelled the intro. You can then e.g. finish this activity too.
finish();
}
}
}
You can easily achieve a nice looking parallax effect for any slide by using either ParallaxFrameLayout.java
, ParallaxLinearLayout.java
or ParallaxRelativeLayout.java
and defining layout_parallaxFactor
for its direct childrens.
A higher factor means a stronger parallax effect, 0
means no parallax effect at all.
<com.heinrichreimersoftware.materialintro.view.parallax.ParallaxLinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
... >
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_parallaxFactor="0"
... />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_parallaxFactor="1.25"
... />
</com.heinrichreimersoftware.materialintro.view.parallax.ParallaxLinearLayout>
Check the "Canteen"-demo for a layout example.
If you want to show the intro only at the first app start you can use onActivityResult()
to store a shared preference when the user finished the intro.
See the demo app for a sample splash screen implementation:
See the releases section for changelogs.
