An iframe free text editor that uses native components in the content tree. Motivation was to create a clean native feel WYSIWYG editor like medium.com has.
- Updates glide to 4.9.0
-
Introducing Macro's - Macro's are equivalent to components in react/vue.js. It lets you add a custom block into the editor where you get to control what gets rendered into the editor. Read more about this below on Macro's section.
-
Add blockquote support
-
Replaced image loader library Picasso with Glide, so to make use of it's rich customization api.
-
An improved editor navigation.
- Links on editor will now respond to click
- Fix for editor rendering wrong order from serialised string/html

-
Renderer or Editor: You can use it as a Renderer to Render the content or use it as an Editor to create the content.
-
No Webviews used to render the content. It uses Native EditText, ImageView and as such to render the contents.
-
HTML Parser: Render your HTML Code into the editor and vice versa.
-
Integration with web based WYSIWYG's: HTMLParser helps the Editor to work seemlessly with the WYSIWYG editor on your web platform.
The editor is built, so that every part of the design have been exposed and is available for customization.
Available Controls:
| Control | Usage |
|---|---|
H1, H2 and H3 |
Insert Headings |
Blockquote |
Insert a blockquote |
Bold, Italic,Color, Intent & Outdent |
Format the text |
Image Picker |
Insert Images to the editor from storage or a URL |
Hyperlinks |
Add Links to the editor |
Location Selector |
Use the embedded map editor to tag and insert locations to the editor |
Numbered and Bulleted Lists |
Let's you created Unorderd and Ordered lists |
Line Divider |
Add a divider |
For a complete overview of the implementation, please take a look at EditorTestActivity.java

If you are using Image Pickers, Add the following into your Activity:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == editor.PICK_IMAGE_REQUEST && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK&& data != null && data.getData() != null) {
Uri uri = data.getData();
try {
Bitmap bitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(), uri);
editor.insertImage(bitmap);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
else if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
// editor.RestoreState();
}
}
You can also programmatically append text into the editor using HTML like so:
editor.render("<p>Hello man, whats up!</p>");
editor.render("<div>This is another paragraph!</div>");
Please be reminded, nested HTML ARE NOT supported at the moment except for <ul> and <ol>, for eg: <p><h2>Hello world</h2></p> won't work since <h2> is nested inside <p>. Following HTML tags are supported:
<p>,<div><h1>,<h2>,<h3><blockquote><img><ul>,<ol><hr/><br/>
-

If you are using image uploads, use the below to add the uploaded image to editor:
editor.setEditorListener(new EditorListener() {
@Override
public void onTextChanged(EditText editText, Editable text) {
// Toast.makeText(EditorTestActivity.this, text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onUpload(Bitmap image, String uuid) {
//do your upload image operations here, once done, call onImageUploadComplete and pass the url and uuid as reference.
editor.onImageUploadComplete("http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/metal-gear-solid-5-the-phantom-pain-cheats-640x325.jpg",uuid);
// editor.onImageUploadFailed(uuid);
}
});
A macro is equivalent to a component in react/vue.js.
for eg:
In vue, you define a component author-tag as:
Vue.component('author-tag', {
props: ['author-name', 'date'],
template: '<div>
<span class="name" {{author-name}}></span>
<span class="date" {{date}}></span>
</div>'
});
You can then use this component as a custom HTML element in your markup:
<author-tag author-name="Thomas Isaac" date="12 July 2018">
</author-tag>
When a custom html tag is found on the HTML text that's fed to the editor, View onRenderMacro(String name, Map<String, Object> props, int index); will be invoked. All you need to do is to inflate your custom view created to handle author-tag and return that view to the editor:
editor.setEditorListener(new EditorListener() {
...
@Override
public View onRenderMacro(String name, Map<String, Object> props, int index) {
View layout = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.layout_authored_by, null);
TextView lblName = layout.findViewById(R.id.lbl_author_name);
lblName.setText(props.get("author-name"));
return layout;
}
});
To insert a macro, use:
private void insertAuthorMacro() {
View layout = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.layout_authored_by, null);
Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<>();
props.put("author-name", "Thomas Isaac");
props.put("date","12 July 2018");
editor.insertMacro("author-tag",layout, props);
}
When content is extracted using editor.getContentAsHTML(); the html string will contain:
"<author-tag author-name=\"Thomas Isaac\" date=\"12 July 2018\"></author-tag>"
You can set your own fonts for the editor.
Map<Integer, String> headingTypeface = getHeadingTypeface();
Map<Integer, String> contentTypeface = getContentface();
editor.setHeadingTypeface(headingTypeface);
editor.setContentTypeface(contentTypeface);
public Map<Integer,String> getHeadingTypeface() {
Map<Integer, String> typefaceMap = new HashMap<>();
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.NORMAL,"fonts/GreycliffCF-Bold.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.BOLD,"fonts/GreycliffCF-Heavy.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.ITALIC,"fonts/GreycliffCF-Heavy.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.BOLD_ITALIC,"fonts/GreycliffCF-Bold.ttf");
return typefaceMap;
}
public Map<Integer,String> getContentface() {
Map<Integer, String> typefaceMap = new HashMap<>();
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.NORMAL,"fonts/Lato-Medium.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.BOLD,"fonts/Lato-Bold.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.ITALIC,"fonts/Lato-MediumItalic.ttf");
typefaceMap.put(Typeface.BOLD_ITALIC,"fonts/Lato-BoldItalic.ttf");
return typefaceMap;
}
You can create your own layouts with the same Id's with the required Id's and put them in your app's layout directory. App will then override the library's layout and pick the one from your app's layout directory. As of now, you can override the following layouts.
| Layout | Description | Required Id's |
|---|---|---|
| R.layout.tmpl_image_view | To insert an image to the editor | @+id/progress, @+id/lblStatus,@+id/imageView,@+id/btn_remove |
| R.layout.tmpl_list_item | To insert an ordered/unordered list | @+id/lblOrder, @+id/txtText,@+id/lblText |
| R.layout.tmpl_divider_layout | To insert a line divider | - |
You could also set the layouts via the API:
-
editor.setEditorImageLayout(R.layout.tmpl_image_view); -
editor.setListItemLayout(R.layout.tmpl_list_item); -
editor.setDividerLayout(R.layout.tmpl_divider_layout);
If you have minifyEnabled, below are the proguard rules:
-keep class com.google.gson.** { *; }
-dontwarn com.squareup.picasso.**
-dontwarn com.squareup.okhttp.**
-keep public class org.jsoup.** { public *; }
Since the endusers are hard typing the content, it's always considered good idea to backup the content every specific interval to be safe.
timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
String text = editor.getContentAsSerialized();
sharedPreferences.putString(String.format("backup-{0}", new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss").format(new Date())), text);
sharedPreferences.apply();
}
}, 0, backupInterval);
