LinkedTextViewWithEmojicons

It is a library which can be used to linkify textview based on custom token defined either in the attrs.xml or in the properties of the textview in the layout file of a class.

This library is availble in jcenter repository. The compile statement to be written in build.gradle file is as below:

compile 'com.dexter.linkedtextviewwithemojicons:linkedtextviewwithemojicons:1.6.0'

For AndroidX

compile 'com.dexter.linkedtextviewwithemojicons:linkedtextviewwithemojicons:1.7.0'

How to use

This library can be used in two ways

1. By defining the app:highlight_token in the linkedtextview under the layout xml file.
2. By creating a style for the linkedtextview if the token are same for whole project.

Example:-

In layout xml file

<com.dexter.linkedtextviewwithemojicons.ui.LinkedTextView
        android:id="@+id/tvText"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="4dp"
        app:highlight_token="\#,\@,https:\/\/" />

In styles.xml

<style name="TextView" />

    <!-- Style to linkify all textview in common. -->
    <style name="TextView.LinkedTextView">
        <item name="highlight_token">\#,\@,https:\/\/</item>
    </style>

Also you can use the onLinkClickListener if you want to perform some action on the click of the linkified text.

OnLinkClickListener

//ClickListener for linkified text
        tvText.setOnLinkClickListener(new LinkedTextView.OnLinkClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onLinkClick(String link, int start, int end) {
                Toast.makeText(SampleActivity.this, link + "\t" + "Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        });
