simple light weight android library for displaying tabulated data
This is a simple android library that will help you include tables in your projects using a few lines of code. Follow very simple examples in the sample LegcyTableView project. Write data dynamically, translate into different languages, update themes, colors, fonts etc...
Application Demo
This project covers the following examples
- Simple display of data
- Custom controls for the LegacyTableView
- Adding data from database (SQLite)
- Using different LegacyTableViewThemes
Add jitpack.io to your root gradle file
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Add this to your dependencies method in build.gradle file
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.levitnudi:LegacyTableView:1.4'
}
}
Add the following lines...
- In your xml layout add:
<com.levitnudi.legacytableview.LegacyTableView
android:id="@+id/legacy_table_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
- In your activity add:
//set table title labels
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyTitle("Id", "Name", "Age", "Email");
//set table contents as string arrays
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyContent("2999010", "John Deer", "50", "[email protected]",
"332312", "Kennedy F", "33", "[email protected]"
,"42343243", "Java Lover", "28", "[email protected]"
,"4288383", "Mike Tee", "22", "[email protected]");
LegacyTableView legacyTableView = (LegacyTableView)findViewById(R.id.legacy_table_view);
legacyTableView.setTitle(LegacyTableView.readLegacyTitle());
legacyTableView.setContent(LegacyTableView.readLegacyContent());
//depending on the phone screen size default table scale is 100
//you can change it using this method
//legacyTableView.setInitialScale(100);//default initialScale is zero (0)
//if you want a smaller table, change the padding setting
legacyTableView.setTablePadding(7);
//to enable users to zoom in and out:
legacyTableView.setZoomEnabled(true);
legacyTableView.setShowZoomControls(true);
//remember to build your table as the last step
legacyTableView.build();
- Using Themes:
//set table title labels
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyTitle("Id", "Name", "Age", "Email");
//set table contents as string arrays
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyContent("2999010", "John Deer", "50", "[email protected]",
"332312", "Kennedy F", "33", "[email protected]"
,"42343243", "Java Lover", "28", "[email protected]"
,"4288383", "Mike Tee", "22", "[email protected]");
LegacyTableView legacyTableView = (LegacyTableView)findViewById(R.id.legacy_table_view);
legacyTableView.setTitle(LegacyTableView.readLegacyTitle());
legacyTableView.setContent(LegacyTableView.readLegacyContent());
//Add your preferred theme like this:
legacyTableView.setTheme(GOLDALINE);
/*

OCEAN
LAVICI
GOLDALINE

LEVICI
ORIO
SKELETON
MESH*/
//depending on the phone screen size default table scale is 100
//you can change it using this method
//legacyTableView.setInitialScale(100);//default initialScale is zero (0)
//if you want a smaller table, change the padding setting
legacyTableView.setTablePadding(7);
//to enable users to zoom in and out:
legacyTableView.setZoomEnabled(true);
legacyTableView.setShowZoomControls(true);
//remember to build your table as the last step
legacyTableView.build();
- Display from database:
public void getFromDatabase(){//execute this method to fetch from database
Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM legacy_table", null);
if(cursor.getCount()>0){
//use database column names or custom names for the columns
/* insert your column titles using legacy insertLegacyTitle() function*/
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyTitle(cursor.getColumnName(1), cursor.getColumnName(2),
cursor.getColumnName(3), cursor.getColumnName(4));
}
while(cursor.moveToNext()) {
//simple table content insert method for table contents
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyContent(cursor.getString(1),
cursor.getString(2), cursor.getString(3), cursor.getString(4));
}
//remember to close your database to avoid memory leaks
cursor.close();
}
//then do this to display it on the table
LegacyTableView legacyTableView = (LegacyTableView)findViewById(R.id.legacy_table_view);
//once you have inserted contents and titles, you can retrieve them
//using readLegacyTitle() and readLegacyContent() methods
legacyTableView.setTitle(LegacyTableView.readLegacyTitle());
legacyTableView.setContent(LegacyTableView.readLegacyContent());
//remember to build your table as the last step
legacyTableView.build();
- Using custom controls:
final LegacyTableView tableView = (LegacyTableView)findViewById(R.id.legacy_table_view);
/*
[OPTIONAL] default column seperator characters are (د) character
default row seperator is (\n) character
you may need to change if your set of data contains these characters
if you don't change the seperators, any character similar in your data set
will be excluded in your table. It is therefore adviseable to use least
commonly used characters
tableView.setColumnSeperator("'");
tableView.setRowSeperator("\n");
tableView.setLegacyColumnSeperator("'");*/
//set table title labels
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyTitle("Id", "Name", "Age", "Email");
//set table contents as string arrays
LegacyTableView.insertLegacyContent("2999010", "John Deer", "50", "[email protected]",
"332312", "Kennedy F", "33", "[email protected]"
,"42343243", "Java Lover", "28", "[email protected]"
,"4288383", "Mike Tee", "22", "[email protected]");
//make sure to indicate custom as other features may not work with default table theme
tableView.setTheme(CUSTOM);
//get titles and contents
tableView.setContent(LegacyTableView.readLegacyContent());
tableView.setTitle(LegacyTableView.readLegacyTitle());
tableView.setBottomShadowVisible(true);
tableView.setHighlight(ODD);//highlight rows oddly or evenly
//tableView.setHighlight(EVEN);
tableView.setBottomShadowVisible(true);
tableView.setFooterTextAlignment(CENTER);
tableView.setFooterText(getString(R.string.footer_text));
tableView.setTableFooterTextSize(5);
tableView.setTableFooterTextColor("#009688");
tableView.setTitleTextAlignment(CENTER);
tableView.setContentTextAlignment(CENTER);
tableView.setTablePadding(20);//increasing spacing will increase the table size
//tableView.setBottomShadowColorTint("#ffffff");
//tableView.setBackgroundEvenColor("#FFCCBC");
//tableView.setBackgroundEvenColor("#303F9F");
tableView.setBackgroundOddColor("#FFCCBC");
//you can also declare your color values as global strings to make your work easy :)
tableView.setHeaderBackgroundLinearGradientBOTTOM("#FF5722");//header background bottom color
tableView.setHeaderBackgroundLinearGradientTOP("#009688");//header background top color
tableView.setBorderSolidColor("#009688");
tableView.setTitleFont(BOLD);
tableView.setZoomEnabled(true);
tableView.setShowZoomControls(true);
//by default the initial scale is 0, you
// may change this depending on initiale scale preferences
//tableView.setInitialScale(100);//default initialScale is zero (0)
tableView.setContentTextColor("#009688");
tableView.build();
