DotsProgressIndicator widget for Android

This is a indeterminate progress indicator for android that shows a dots bouncing animation for the progress indicator.

Adding it to your project

implementation 'com.bcgdv.asia.lib:dots:${dots_version}'

Usage

The progress bar needs to be configured in the XML.

    <com.bcgdv.asia.lib.dots.DotsProgressIndicator
        android:id="@+id/dotsProgressIndicatorView2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:dotsMode="bestFit"
        app:dotsSpacing="2dp"
        app:dotsDiameter="20dp"
        app:dotsColors="@array/dotsColors"
        app:numberOfDots="4"
        app:visibilityChangeDelay="1000" />

After specifying the widget in XML, it will be triggered to animate when the widget is visible. When the visibility is set to HIDDEN or GONE, the animation will be stopped.

Options explained

`app:dotsMode`

If bestFit The size of the dots will be determined by the width of the widget and the number of dots. If setSize The size of the dots will be specified in the dotsDiameter option.

Options: bestFit|setSize Default bestFit app:dotsSpacing Options: bestFit|setSize Default bestFit

`app:dotsSpacing`

Specifies the space between the dots. Default is 4dp.

`app:dotsDiameter`

The diameter of each dot in 4dp. If dotsMode is set to setSize then this field is required. Default value 0dp.

`app:dotsColors`

An array specifying the colors of each dot. This is optional however for best results, it is recommended you provide colors that suit your app.

You need to specify a colors array as follows:

<color name="red">#ff0000</color>
<color name="blue">#0000FF</color>
<color name="green">#00FFFF</color>
<color name="yellow">#FFFF00</color>
<color name="black">#000000</color>
<color name="magenta">#FF00FF</color>

<array name="dotColors">
    <item>@color/red</item>
    <item>@color/blue</item>
    <item>@color/green</item>
    <item>@color/yellow</item>
    <item>@color/black</item>
    <item>@color/magenta</item>
</array>

If you specify fewer colors than dots, the colors will repeat.

`app:numberOfDots`

The number of dots to show in the progress indicator. Default is 3.

`app:visibilityChangeDelay`

When you set or hide the visibility of the widget, this value will wait for the specified number of milliseconds before triggering the change. This is useful when you want to make sure that the widget does not flicker or flash on the screen if it's being set to visible or hidden rapidly. Default value is 1000 ms.
