NaturalDateFormat

A library to format dates as described in Material Design guidelines ( https://www.google.com/design/spec/patterns/data-formats.html#data-formats-date-time).

RelativeDateFormat formats date as relative (4 months ago, today, next year), AbsoluteDateFormat formats date as absolute (Monday, 4:32 PM, June 10). These classes use natural language, can use abbreviations, 12/24 hours clock, skip time/year/weekday if not needed.

This library internally uses Joda Time. If you're looking for something really compact, you may prefer to use DateUtils.

How to install

Follow instructions on https://jitpack.io/#ZieIony/NaturalDateFormat

How to use
RelativeDateFormat relFormat = new RelativeDateFormat(context,NaturalDateFormat.DATE);
 AbsoluteDateFormat absFormat = new AbsoluteDateFormat(context,NaturalDateFormat.DATE | NaturalDateFormat.HOURS | NaturalDateFormat.MINUTES);
 relFormat.format(new Date().getTime());
 absFormat.format(new Date().getTime());
 

The second parameter can be a combination of flags from NaturalDateFormat class. See the sample app.

Translations

I know only english and polish. If you wish to help me with translations, feel free to make a pull request with a translation.

There are issues with certain languages on certain platforms. For example polish doesn't work well on Samsung with API 10. It's an issue with Android internals and there's not much I can do with that.

Example app to use Protobuf in Android using Square's Wire library.

Espresso's consistency makes it really easy to learn.

Want to match a view with a specific id? Use withId(R.id.some_id). Need to match with a piece of text? Use withText(R.id.some_text) or withText("some text). Awesome, consistent and it's very clear what it is you are doing.

However...

After a few hours writing test code you'll find your code being a little bit too verbose. Not anymore.

Why should you need to explicitly specify that you are matching with some text if you are passing in some text as a parameter? Some for the view id, you can already see that it is a view id.

Ristretto allows you to write the same test code as you already write, but less verbose.

Complete abstraction from the Spannable API. Forget about all the boiler plate code and all the Object what nonsense that you have to deal with when working with Spannable.

  • Eliminate setSpan calls by using all the provided methods trough the StyleEZ interface.
  • Chain multiple spans with a fluent style
  • By using both the ContentEZ and StyleEZ interface it removes unnecessary methods from the autocomplete form, and thus it removes clutter.
  • Allows different ways of adding content (String, String Resource and Formatted String)
  • By default it does INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE to all the spans
  • After calling any of the inclusive/exclusive methods, all the next methods will be using that flag until apply is called or another flag is used
  • You can create your own locator by extending the Locator interface

FadingTextView is a TextView that changes its content automatically every few seconds.

An example android application to set dynamic span size on GridLayoutManager, RecyclerView.

Android Library for custom views to control brightness , volume and seek through swipable gestures . These views could easily replace the conventional volume / brightness / seek controls that we have in music player ,video player or gallery apps.
