generator-android-template [![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url]

> Create a new app from scratch and add components to it

Version : 1.0.1

This project was created in order to generate the different classes used by my other library (https://github.com/joxad/easydatabinding) using yeoman generator :

In order to make databinding working, we need to create
- a xml layout with ...
- a activity/fragment class
- a vm associated to this activity/fragment

The generator is here to help developers do it faster :)

Installation

1. First, install Yeoman and generator-android-template using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

``bash
npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-android-template
`

Then generate your new project:

You will have to call the command line below IN THE ROOT of your project.

2. In your android project


project build.gradle :

`
repositories {
maven { url "http://dl.bintray.com/joxad/maven" }
}
`

app build.gradle :

`
compile com.joxad.easydatabinding:lib:1.1.0
`




How does it work

You will be ask a few questions in order to generate the needed classes :
- applicationId => in order to know where to place the generated code
- packageName => the package where you want to put the activity/fragment java classes
- layout name => it will generate the xml & activity/fragment & activityVM/fragmentVM

Generate an activity

`bash
yo android-template:activity
`

This will generate :

- Activity
- Activity layout
- Activity VM that will have your binding activity




Generate an activity with recycler (v1)


`bash
yo android-template:activity-recycler
`

This will generate an activity with a recycler view using https://github.com/evant/binding-collection-adapter v1

- Activity
- Activity layout
- Activity VM that will have your binding activity
- BaseVM that will handle each item model of your recycler
- Item Layout for your recycler

In your build.gradle add :
`
compile 'me.tatarka.bindingcollectionadapter:bindingcollectionadapter:1.0.3'
compile 'me.tatarka.bindingcollectionadapter:bindingcollectionadapter-recyclerview:1.0.3'
`

Generate an activity with recycler view (v2)


`bash
yo android-template:activity-recycler-v2
`
This will generate an activity with a recycler view using https://github.com/evant/binding-collection-adapter v2

- Activity
- Activity layout
- Activity VM that will have your binding activity
- BaseVM that will handle each item model of your recycler
- Item Layout for your recycler

Generate an activity with bottom bar navigation


`bash
yo android-template:activity-bottom-nav
`

This will generate an activity with a coordinator layout and a bottom view navigation

- Activity
- Activity layout
- Activity VM that will have your binding activity
- Menu xml in the resources
- Menu color selector




Generate a fragment


`bash
yo android-template:fragment
`

This will generate :

- Fragment
- Fragment layout
- Fragment VM that will have your binding fragment

Generate a support fragment


`bash
yo android-template:fragment-support
`


This will generate :

- Fragment v4
- Fragment layout
- Fragment VM that will have your binding fragment




Generate a support fragment with recycler view (v2)


`bash
yo android-template:fragment-support-recycler-v2
`
This will generate an fragment with a recycler view using https://github.com/evant/binding-collection-adapter v2

- Fragment
- Fragment layout
- Fragment VM that will have your binding fragment
- BaseVM that will handle each item model of your recycler
- Item Layout for your recycler




Generate a bottomsheet dialog fragment

`bash
yo android-template:bottom-fragment
`

This will generate :

- Bottom Sheet Dialog Fragment
- Fragment layout
- Bottom Sheet Dialog Fragment VM that will have your binding fragment




Generate an item

`bash
yo android-template:item
``

This will generate :

- BaseVM of your model
- Item layout associated with your vm

Thanks

Very useful lib used :

https://github.com/evant/binding-collection-adapter/

It handles the databinding inside the recyclerview => No adapter to write :)
