android-fontloading-textview
Load custom fonts easily just via layout parameters or styles. Uses static Typeface objects, load once - memory efficient. No more textView.setTypeface() calls!
Add gradle dependency
compile 'net.kianoni:fontloader:0.3.0'
Usage in layouts
Please use styles.xml instead!
Add font namespace to xml root element, eg.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:font="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
Define explicit font file to use:
<net.kianoni.fontloader.TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello_world"
font:fontFile="fonts/OpenSans-Regular.ttf"
android:textSize="18sp"
/>
Or a pattern, family and variant:
<net.kianoni.fontloader.TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello_world"
font:fontFilePattern="fonts/{fontFamily}-{fontVariant}.ttf"
font:fontFamily="OpenSans"
font:fontVariant="Light"
android:textSize="18sp"
/>
