BottomNavigation
Bottom navigation inspired by google material design guideline.

How use this lib
XML
Currenly the only way to customize bottom navigation is using xml. you can add bottom navigation to your activity like this:
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigation
android:id="@+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="56dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="@color/colorPrimary">
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.TabItem
android:id="@+id/tab_home"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:tab_text="Home"
app:tab_icon="@drawable/ic_home_white_24dp"
/>
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.TabItem
android:id="@+id/tab_images"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:tab_text="Images"
app:tab_icon="@drawable/ic_image_black_24dp"
/>
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.TabItem
android:id="@+id/tab_camera"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:tab_text="Camera"
app:tab_icon="@drawable/ic_camera_white_24dp"
/>
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.TabItem
android:id="@+id/tab_products"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:tab_text="Products"
app:tab_icon="@drawable/ic_products_white_24dp"
/>
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.TabItem
android:id="@+id/tab_more"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:tab_text="More"
app:tab_icon="@drawable/ic_more_white_24dp"
/>
</com.ss.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigation>
if you want change bottom navigation mode, you must change it like below:
app:mode="phone"
or
app:mode="tablet"
Examples
Phone Mode:
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigation
android:id="@+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="56dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
app:mode="phone">
Tablet Mode:
<com.ss.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigation
android:id="@+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="56dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
app:mode="tablet">
Java
You can set onSelectedItemChangeListener in java like this:
notice: all tab items in xml must have id to determinate which item is selected.
BottomNavigation bottomNavigation=(BottomNavigation)findViewById(R.id.bottom_navigation);
bottomNavigation.setOnSelectedItemChangeListener(new OnSelectedItemChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onSelectedItemChanged(int itemId) {
switch (itemId){
case R.id.tab_home:
transaction=getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_fragment_containers,new FragmentA());
break;
case R.id.tab_images:
transaction=getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_fragment_containers,new FragmentB());
break;
case R.id.tab_camera:
transaction=getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_fragment_containers,new FragmentF());
break;
case R.id.tab_products:
transaction=getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_fragment_containers,new FragmentC());
break;
case R.id.tab_more:
transaction=getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.replace(R.id.frame_fragment_containers,new FragmentD());
break;
}
transaction.commit();
}
});
Change default item
you can change default selected tab item by add this line to your code (before setOnSelectedItemChangeListener):
bottomNavigation.setDefaultItem(1); // change default selected tab item by position
Set custom font
for set custom font on bottom navigation, you simply need add this line to your code:
bottomNavigation.setTypeface(myTypeface);
