# expandable-text [![](https://jitpack.io/v/giangpham96/expandable-text.svg)](https://jitpack.io/#giangpham96/expandable-text)

Light-weighted, convenient implementation of expandable text view that supports expanding &
collapsing animations for
Android projects.

## Why expandable-text?

When the text is too long, a designer reasonably asks if it is possible to truncate the text by
having a certain line
count limitation. In addition, an expanding call-to-action (ie. "Read more") should be shown at the
end of the text.
When user taps the text, it expands to show the full content. ExpandableTextView helps creating such
behaviour easily.

## Demonstration

|                                                             Normal                                                             |                                                              RTL                                                               |                                                         With drawable                                                          |

## Install

**Step 1.** Add the JitPack repository to your build file

```groovy
repositories {
    ...
    maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
}
```

**Step 2.** Add the dependency

```groovy
// build.gradle (module level)
dependencies {
    // use both view and compose variants
    implementation 'com.github.giangpham96:expandable-text:2.0.1'
    // use only view variant
    implementation 'com.github.giangpham96.expandable-text:expandable_textview:2.0.1'
    // use only compose variant
    implementation 'com.github.giangpham96.expandable-text:expandable_text_compose:2.0.1'
}
```

## Usage

### XML

```xml

<io.github.giangpham96.expandable_textview.ExpandableTextView 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:background="@color/purple_100"
    android:padding="16dp"
    android:maxLines="10" 
    app:expandAction="More" 
    app:limitedMaxLines="2"
    app:expandActionColor="@color/blue_500" 
    app:originalText="@string/long_text" />
```

#### Attributes

#### Public functions

- `limitedMaxLines` public getter & setter for the maximum line counts when the text is collapsed.
- `expandAction` public getter & setter for the action at the end of truncated text such as "View
  more".
- `expandActionColor` public getter & setter for the color of expand action.
- `originalText` public getter & setter for the text to be displayed on this text view.
- `collapsed` public getter to determine if the text is being collapsed
- `expanded` public getter to determine if the text is being expanded
- `toggle` function that makes the text changes its state from collapsed to expanded & vice versa.
  It also adds
  animation transition during the state change.

#### Notes

- **DO NOT** directly use `android:text` or `setText` in this view. Use `app:originalText`
  or `originalText` instead.
  Attempting to use `android:text` or `setText` will lead to unexpected behaviour.
- At any time, `limitedMaxLines` **MUST** always be less than or equal to `maxLines`. Otherwise, an
  exception will be
  thrown.
- This view only supports `TextUtils.TruncateAt.END`.

### Compose

```kotlin
var expand by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }

ExpandableText(
    originalText = "a very long text that will be truncated at some points",
    expandAction = "See more",
    expand = expand,
    expandActionColor = Color.Blue,
    limitedMaxLines = 2,
    animationSpec = spring(),
    modifier = Modifier
        .clickable { expand = !expand },
)
```
