SASlider

Description

SASlider is lightweight cool looking custom slider control which enables the user to input integer or decimal values with high customizeability. User can select values by inputting in text field above slider, slide the control or tap anywhere on the slider to move it.



Demonstration

Multiple ways to input values into the slider.



Installation

SASlider can be installed using Maven, Gradle, or manually.

Maven

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>jitpack.io</id>
        <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

Step 2. Add the dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.salmaanahmed</groupId>
    <artifactId>SASlider</artifactId>
    <version>0.1</version>
</dependency>

Gradle

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

allprojects {
    repositories {
      ...
      maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
  compile 'com.github.salmaanahmed:SASlider:0.1'
}

Manual Installation

If you prefer not to use either of the above mentioned dependency managers, you can integrate SASlider into your project manually by adding the files contained in the java folder to your project.

Getting Started

Using XML

You can use SASlider in XML as following

<sasliderdemo.salmaan.ahmsal.com.saslider.SASlider
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="100dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
    app:circleColor="@android:color/darker_gray"
    app:defaultValue="150"
    app:editTextBorderColor="@color/colorGrey"
    app:isDecimal="false"
    app:maxValue="300"
    app:minValue="0"
    app:criticalColor="@color/darkRed"
    app:upperThreshold="200"
    app:lowerThreshold="100"
    app:sliderColor="@color/darkGreen" />

High customizeability allows developers to have desired color of circles, slider thumb, edit text border and color of thumb when slider value is critical i.e. beyond the defined thresholds. Developers can set the slider type to decimal or integer. Set min max range and also the critical thresholds of both upper and lower bounds.

Using Kotlin

You can create the slider programatically as well, see the example below.

  val slider = SASlider(this@MainActivity)
  slider.sliderColor = Color.BLUE
  slider.min = 0.0
  slider.max = 50.0
  slider.criticalColor = Color.BLACK
  slider.isDecimal = true
  linearLayout.addView(slider)

Getting value

Developers can query the current value anytime in the slider using the following variable.

slider.selectedIndex
