Usage

In XML

To set up a typeface you must specify the parameter robotoTypeface:

xml
<com.devspark.robototextview.widget.RobotoTextView
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layoutwidth="wrapcontent"
    android:layoutheight="wrapcontent"
    app:robotoTypeface="robotolightitalic"/>

or specify a set of parameters robotoFontFamily, robotoTextWeight and robotoTextStyle:

xml <com.devspark.robototextview.widget.RobotoTextView     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"     android:layoutwidth="wrapcontent"     android:layoutheight="wrapcontent"     app:robotoF     app:robotoTextWeight="light"     app:robotoTextStyle="italic"/>

Set up typeface in code:

In Code

Using parameter typeface:

java RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context); RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(         textView,          RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACEROBOTOLIGHT_ITALIC);

Using parameters fontFamily, textWeight and textStyle:

java RobotoTextView textView = new RobotoTextView(context); RobotoTypefaces.setUpTypeface(         textView,          RobotoTypefaces.FONTFAMILYROBOTO,         RobotoTypefaces.TEXTWEIGHTLIGHT,         RobotoTypefaces.TEXTSTYLEITALIC);

With Span

Using parameter typeface:

java RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(         context,          RobotoTypefaces.TYPEFACEROBOTOLIGHT_ITALIC); Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text"); spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPANEXCLUSIVEEXCLUSIVE);

Using parameters fontFamily, textWeight and textStyle:

java RobotoTypefaceSpan span = new RobotoTypefaceSpan(         context,         RobotoTypefaces.FONTFAMILYROBOTO,         RobotoTypefaces.TEXTWEIGHTLIGHT,         RobotoTypefaces.TEXTSTYLEITALIC); Spannable spannable = new SpannableString("text"); spannable.setSpan(span, 0, 1, Spannable.SPANEXCLUSIVEEXCLUSIVE);

Roboto Inflater

To apply roboto typeface for original TextView (like a [Calligraphy][7]) you must attach inflater in your Activity class in the #onCreate() method.

@Override protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {     RobotoInflater.attach(this);     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); }

and specify the typeface in xml:

xml <TextView     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"     android:layoutwidth="wrapcontent"     android:layoutheight="wrapcontent"     app:robotoTypeface="robotolightitalic"     tools:ignore="MissingPrefix"/>

_Note: Popular IDE's (Android Studio, IntelliJ) will likely mark this as an error despite being correct. You may want to add tools:ignore="MissingPrefix" to either the View itself or its parent ViewGroup to avoid this. You'll need to add the tools namespace to have access to this "ignore" attribute. xmlns:tools=" http://schemas.android.com/tools". See https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=65176._

Gradle

If you intend to use is not all fonts, the extra fonts can be removed.

android.applicationVariants.all{ variant ->
    variant.mergeAssets.doLast {
        File fonts = file("$variant.mergeAssets.outputDir/fonts")
        if (fonts.exists()) {
            for (File file : fonts.listFiles()) {
                if (file.getName().contains("RobotoSlab")) {
                    println("delete " + file.getName() + " font")
                    file.delete()
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
