Activity Fragment Manager

Download Build Status API License: MIT Android Arsenal

A library to deal with activities and fragments with ease.

Motivation

  • Speed up the process and abstract the logic of opening, adding and replacing fragments in an activity;
  • Reduce the number of activities declared in the project;
  • Get access to Activity.onBackPressed() inside fragments;
  • Add animated transitions between fragments in a easy way;
  • Easy way to work with shared elements;

Download

To use the Activity Fragment Manager, add the compile dependency with the latest version.

Gradle

Add the Activity Fragment Manager to your build.gradle:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.massivedisaster:activity-fragment-manager:0.4.5'
}

Maven

In the pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.massivedisaster</groupId>
    <artifactId>activity-fragment-manager</artifactId>
    <version>0.4.5</version>
</dependency>

Usage

1. Create your Activity

Create a new activity that extend the AbstractFragmentActivity.

public class ActivityPrimaryTheme extends AbstractFragmentActivity {

    // The layout resource you want to find the FrameLayout.
    @Override
    protected int getLayoutResId() {
        return R.layout.activity_primary;
    }

    // The FrameLayout id you want to inject the fragments.
    @Override
    protected int getContainerViewId() {
        return R.id.frmContainer;
    }
}

Create the layout to be used by your AbstractFragmentActivity.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/frmContainer"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

2. Opening, adding or replacing fragments in your AbstractFragmentActivity.

Open a new AbstractFragmentActivity with a Fragment.

ActivityFragmentManager.open(getActivity(), ActivityPrimaryTheme.class, FragmentExample.class)
                .commit();

Add a new Fragment in the actual AbstractFragmentActivity.

ActivityFragmentManager.add(getActivity(), FragmentExample.class)
                .commit();

Replace a new Fragment in the actual AbstractFragmentActivity.

ActivityFragmentManager.replace((AbstractFragmentActivity) getActivity(), FragmentExample.class)
                .commit();

3. Default Fragment

You can set a default fragment in your AbstractFragmentActivity. An example, if your AbstractFragmentActivity is started by an external intent you need to define a default fragment.

public class ActivityPrimaryTheme extends AbstractFragmentActivity {

    ...

    @Override
    protected Class<? extends Fragment> getDefaultFragment() {
        return FragmentSplash.class;
    }
}

4. Fragment Transaction Animations.

When you add or replace fragments in the old way you can set custom animations for the transactions. So, you can set a custom animation with ease using this library.

Single Transaction Animation

If you want to add a single animation only for one transaction you can do this:

ActivityFragmentManager.add(getActivity(), FragmentExample.class)
        .setTransactionAnimation(new TransactionAnimation() {
            @Override
            public int getAnimationEnter() {
                return R.anim.enter_from_right;
            }

            @Override
            public int getAnimationExit() {
                return R.anim.exit_from_left;
            }

            @Override
            public int getAnimationPopEnter() {
                return R.anim.pop_enter;
            }

            @Override
            public int getAnimationPopExit() {
                return R.anim.pop_exit;
            }
        })
        .commit();

Attention: This only works in transactions between fragments, i.e. add() and replace()

Custom animation for all transactions.

If you want to add a custom animation for all transactions inside of a AbstractFragmentActivity you can override the follow methods:

public class ActivityPrimaryTheme extends AbstractFragmentActivity {

    ...

    @Override
    public int getAnimationEnter() {
        return R.anim.enter_from_right;
    }

    @Override
    public int getAnimationExit() {
        return R.anim.exit_from_left;
    }

    @Override
    public int getAnimationPopEnter() {
        return R.anim.pop_enter;
    }

    @Override
    public int getAnimationPopExit() {
        return R.anim.pop_exit;
    }
}

5. Shared Elements

If you want to make your app beautiful you need to put some cool animation on it! Shared elements were introduced in API 21 and makes the transactions so great and sweet. With Activity Fragment Manager it's easy to share elements between fragments or activities. Let's take a look:

Activity A

ActivityFragmentManager.open(getActivity(), ActivityToolbar.class, FragmentSharedElement.class)
                .addSharedElement(view.findViewById(R.id.imgExample), "sharedElement")
                .commit();

Activity B

ViewCompat.setTransitionName(view, "sharedElement");

or

<View
  ...
  android:transitionName="sharedElement" />

Attention: Shared elements doesn't work when you use add()! Well if you remove the first fragment it's possible, i.e. a replace :)

6. Custom Intents

Sometimes you want to add more information to the Intent or set some flags. You can use the follow method to open a new AbstractActivityFragment:

Intent intent = ActivityFragmentManager.open(getContext(), ActivityPrimaryTheme.class, FragmentExample.class).getIntent();
intent.setFlag(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
getActivity().startActivity(intent);

7. Fragment#OnBackPressed

Allows to have back pressed events in Fragments.

public class FragmentA extends Fragment implements OnBackPressedListener {

    ...

    @Override
    public boolean onBackPressed() {
      // Do what you want here! If you return true the activity will not process the OnBackPressed
    }
}

Goodies

  • You can pass a tag to be applied in the Fragment.
  • You can pass REQUEST_CODE to the startActivityForResult.
  • You can addToBackStack.
  • You can pass data between fragments using a Bundle.
  • You can get acess to the original FragmentTransaction.
  • You can use DataBinding in your AbstractFragmentActivity, all you need is override initializeDataBinding() and bind the view!

Sample

Sample app can be found in the sample module. Alternatively, you can use dryrun to run the sample.

The Sample app don't require any configuration to interact.
