GPVersionChecker

Android Library for checking the current uploaded version on the Google Play

Quick start

1. Just add this dependency into your build.gradle

 repositories {
     mavenCentral()
     maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
 }

and:

 implementation 'com.github.robohorse:gpversionchecker:1.8.0'
 implementation 'org.jsoup:jsoup:1.9.2'

2. Add

   GPVersionChecker.Builder(this).create()

into your Activity.kt

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        GPVersionChecker.Builder(this).create()
    }

Now you can see this awesome dialog window:

This library does not produce memory leaks - all context usages are leak-safe.

Customization

• Dialog window customization

You can override string resource, that you want:

    <string name="app_name">GPVersionChecker</string>

    <string name="gpvch_header">New version is available!</string>
    <string name="gpvch_button_positive">Update current version</string>
    <string name="gpvch_button_negative">Remind me later</string>
    <string name="gpvch_new_version_info_title">Whats new:</string>

also, you can override dimensions for default dialog window

    <dimen name="gpvch_app_icon_margin">10dp</dimen>

    <dimen name="gpvch_tv_version_code_margin_left">5dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="gpvch_tv_version_code_margin_right">5dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="gpvch_tv_version_code_margin_top">10dp</dimen>

    <dimen name="gpvch_tv_header_whats_new">5dp</dimen>

image by overriding gpvch_app_icon.xml

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />

• Version checking strategy

Add this to builder, and dialog will be shown once in day

.setCheckingStrategy(CheckingStrategy.ONE_PER_DAY)

• Usage info response only

The following code will block showing of the default dialog window, but gives information about current uploaded version

    GPVersionChecker.Builder(activity = this)
            .setVersionInfoListener(object : VersionInfoListener {
                
                override fun onResulted(version: Version?) {
                    //TODO: Show your custom dialog here
                }
                
                override fun onErrorHandled(throwable: Throwable?) {
                    //TODO: Show your custom error notification here
                }
                
            }).create()
