NightOwl


It is an experimental project for switching day/night mode on Android. View the demo video on Youtube. This will help you understand the project.

Dependencies

add nightowllib library to your project which published in jCenter

compile 'com.asha.nightowllib:nightowllib:0.2'

Setup

init the NightOwl in Application class, such as

 NightOwl.builder().defaultMode(0).create();

then you need call three method in your Activity class, such as

public class DemoActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // step1 before super.onCreate
        NightOwl.owlBeforeCreate(this);
        
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_demo);
        
        // step2 after setContentView
        NightOwl.owlAfterCreate(this);
        
        // write your code
    }
    
    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        
        // step3 onResume
        NightOwl.owlResume(this);
    }
    
}

switch skin everywhere as you like

View v = findViewById(R.id.button);
v.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        NightOwl.owlNewDress(SettingActivity.this);
    }
});
