What It Is

Provide both TextView and ImageView the ability to show shimmer (animation loader) before any text or image is shown. Useful when waiting for data to be loaded from the network. Example below

Features / Usage

1. Loader View for TextView defined in layout XML

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

2. Loader View for ImageView defined in layout XML

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderImageView
         android:layout_width="100dp"
         android:layout_height="100dp" />

3. Define the % width of the TextView that shows the loading animation withwidth_weight

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         app:width_weight="0.4" />

4. Define the % height of the TextView that shows the loading animation withheight_weight

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         app:height_weight="0.8" />

5. Define use gradient of the TextView or ImageView that shows the gradient withuse_gradient

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         app:use_gradient="true" />

6. Setting the Text Style as BOLD would darken the loading shimmer
