Kotlin API for generating Android XML Resources
dependencies {
implementation("com.commit451:resourcespoet:latest.release.here")
}Write variables to the poet like:
val poet = ResourcesPoet.create()
.addString("app_name", "Test")
.addColor("color_primary", "#FF0000")
.addBool("is_cool", true)
.addComment("This is a comment")
.addDrawable("logo", "@drawable/logo")
.addStyle("AppTheme.Dark", "Base.AppTheme.Dark")
// etc
.indent(true)
val xml: String = poet.build()
println(xml)which would output this XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<resources>
<string name="app_name">Test</string>
<color name="color_primary">#FF0000</color>
<bool name="is_cool">true</bool>
<!--This is a comment-->
<drawable name="logo">@drawable/logo</drawable>
<style name="AppTheme.Dark" parent="Base.AppTheme.Dark"/>
</resources>To get the XML result as a file:
val valuesFolder = File(resFolderPath + File.separator + "values")
valuesFolder.mkdirs()
val configXml = File(valuesFolder, "config.xml")
configXml.createNewFile()
poet.build(configXml)You can even start with and modify an existing resource file:
val file = File("some/path/to/file")
val poet = ResourcesPoet.create(file)
.remove(Type.STRING, "app_name")
.addString("app_name", "Even Better App Name")
.add(Type.BOOL, "is_cool", "true")Most resource types are supported. All look similar in usage:
val poet = ResourcesPoet.create()
.addBool("is_cool", true)
.addColor("color_primary", "#FF0000")
.addComment("This is a comment")
.addDimension("margin", "2dp")
.addDrawable("logo", "@drawable/logo")
.addId("some_id")
.addInteger("number", 0)
.addIntegerArray("numbers", numbers)
.addPlurals("songs", plurals)
.addString("app_name", "Test")
.addStringArray("stuff", strings)
.addStyle("AppTheme.Dark", "Base.AppTheme.Dark")
.addTypedArray("some_typed_array", typedArray)We do not allow configuration of more complicated resources like drawable and anim in the creation sense.
