Android App Common Tasks

Android App Common Tasks library is developed to reduce efforts to achieve common features of the android apps. While developing the apps, we realized that we’re coding for many common tasks in all the apps. For e.g. check the network’s availability, using shared preferences, parsing, etc. And like us, many other android developers might be doing the same. So it needs to be reduced for all to save the development time with ease. And so, we decided to develop a library which can reduce developers’ time and efforts.

This Project contains Library of commonly used methods, classes and it's examples.
Library also contains easy way to implement social sdk i.e : Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn.

IconicDroid is a custom Android Drawable which allows to draw icons from several iconic font.

Icons

Galgo

Sometimes we want/need to know what's going on behind the scenes but our app is not always connected to our computer to let us check the logs. Galgo will let you display your log messages as an overlay on top of your UI.

Extremely useful for testers who want to have more insight into what's going on behind the scenes in our apps when it misbehaves.

You can also define some basic settings such as background color, text color, text size and number of lines to display on screen so it better fits your needs.

Logging

Android Weak Handler

android-weak-handler is a memory safer implementation of android.os.Handler.

Original implementation of Handler always keeps hard reference to handler in queue of execution. Any object in Message or Runnable posted to android.os.Handler will be hard referenced for some time. If you create anonymous Runnable and call to postDelayed with large timeout, that Runnable will be held in memory until timeout passes. Even if your Runnable seems small, it indirectly references owner class, which is usually something as big as Activity or Fragment.

System

StarBar

A custom View class implementing a rating bar with 10 stars. The user can touch or swipe to select a rating between 1 and 10. The StarBar supports three rating ranges (red, yellow and green) that are indicated by different colored stars.
