Demo TypeWriterView

Usage

Dependency:

dependencies {
     implementation 'in.codeshuffle:typewriterview:1.1.0'
}

XML Usage

<in.codeshuffle.typewriterview.TypeWriterView
       android:id="@+id/typeWriterView"
       android:layout_width="wrap_content"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:textSize="30sp"
       android:textStyle="bold" />           

Java Usage

        //Create Object and refer to layout view
        TypeWriterView typeWriterView=(TypeWriterView)findViewById(R.id.typeWriterView);
        
        //Setting each character animation delay
        typeWriterView.setDelay(int);
        
        //Setting music effect On/Off
        typeWriterView.setWithMusic(boolean);
         
        //Animating Text
        typeWriterView.animateText(string);
        
        //Remove Animation. This is required to be called when you want to minimize the app while animation is going on. Call this in onPause() or onStop()
        typeWriterView.removeAnimation();

Listeners available

Implement the given interface and override these stuff:

          //Implement this to your class
          yourClass extends someBaseClass implements TypeWriterListener
          
          //then listen to callbacks
          typeWriterView.setTypeWriterListener(this)
            
          //animation starts with animateText()
          onTypingStart(String text);
          
          //animation typed one character (for each character)
          onCharacterTyped(String text, int position);

          //Animation is removed using removeAnimation()
          onTypingRemoved(String text);
          
          //Animation ends printing entire text
          onTypingEnd(String text);

Note

- The function animateText() if called with another string when already an animation is going on, will have no effect!!
