OnboardingFragment

public abstract class OnboardingFragment
extends Fragment

An OnboardingFragment provides a common and simple way to build onboarding screen for applications.

Building the screen

The view structure of onboarding screen is composed of the common parts and custom parts. The common parts are composed of title, description and page navigator and the custom parts are composed of background, contents and foreground.

To build the screen views, the inherited class should override:

Each of these methods can return null if the application doesn't want to provide it.

Page information

The onboarding screen may have several pages which explain the functionality of the application. The inherited class should provide the page information by overriding the methods:

Note that the information is used in onCreateView(LayoutInflater, ViewGroup, Bundle), so should be initialized before calling super.onCreateView.

Animation

Onboarding screen has three kinds of animations:

Logo Splash Animation

When onboarding screen appears, the logo splash animation is played by default. The animation fades in the logo image, pauses in a few seconds and fades it out.

In most cases, the logo animation needs to be customized because the logo images of applications are different from each other, or some applications may want to show their own animations.

The logo animation can be customized in two ways:

If the inherited class provides neither the logo image nor the animation, the logo animation will be omitted.

Page enter animation

After logo animation finishes, page enter animation starts. The application can provide the animations of custom views by overriding onCreateEnterAnimation().

Page change animation

When the page changes, the default animations of the title and description are played. The inherited class can override onPageChanged(int, int) to start the custom animations.

Finishing the screen

If the user finishes the onboarding screen after navigating all the pages, onFinishFragment() is called. The inherited class can override this method to show another fragment or activity, or just remove this fragment.

Theming

OnboardingFragment must have access to an appropriate theme. Specifically, the fragment must receive Theme_Leanback_Onboarding, or a theme whose parent is set to that theme. Themes can be provided in one of three ways:

If the theme is provided in multiple ways, the onProvideTheme override has priority, followed by the Activity's theme. (Themes whose parent theme is already set to the onboarding theme do not need to set the onboardingTheme attribute; if set, it will be ignored.)

Public constructors

OnboardingFragment

OnboardingFragment ()

Public methods

getLogoResourceId

int getLogoResourceId ()

Returns the resource ID of the splash logo image.

Returns
int The resource ID of the splash logo image.

onCreateView

View onCreateView (LayoutInflater inflater, 
                ViewGroup container, 
                Bundle savedInstanceState)

Called to have the fragment instantiate its user interface view. This is optional, and non-graphical fragments can return null (which is the default implementation). This will be called between onCreate(Bundle) and onActivityCreated(Bundle).

If you return a View from here, you will later be called in onDestroyView() when the view is being released.

Parameters
inflater LayoutInflater: The LayoutInflater object that can be used to inflate any views in the fragment,
container ViewGroup: If non-null, this is the parent view that the fragment's UI should be attached to. The fragment should not add the view itself, but this can be used to generate the LayoutParams of the view.
savedInstanceState Bundle: If non-null, this fragment is being re-constructed from a previous saved state as given here.
Returns
View Return the View for the fragment's UI, or null.

onProvideTheme

int onProvideTheme ()

Returns the theme used for styling the fragment. The default returns -1, indicating that the host Activity's theme should be used.

Returns
int The theme resource ID of the theme to use in this fragment, or -1 to use the host Activity's theme.

onSaveInstanceState

void onSaveInstanceState (Bundle outState)

Called to ask the fragment to save its current dynamic state, so it can later be reconstructed in a new instance of its process is restarted. If a new instance of the fragment later needs to be created, the data you place in the Bundle here will be available in the Bundle given to onCreate(Bundle), onCreateView(LayoutInflater, ViewGroup, Bundle), and onActivityCreated(Bundle).

This corresponds to Activity.onSaveInstanceState(Bundle) and most of the discussion there applies here as well. Note however: this method may be called at any time before onDestroy(). There are many situations where a fragment may be mostly torn down (such as when placed on the back stack with no UI showing), but its state will not be saved until its owning activity actually needs to save its state.

Parameters
outState Bundle: Bundle in which to place your saved state.

setLogoResourceId

void setLogoResourceId (int id)

Sets the resource ID of the splash logo image. If the logo resource id set, the default logo splash animation will be played.

Parameters
id int: The resource ID of the logo image.

Protected methods

getCurrentPageIndex

int getCurrentPageIndex ()

Returns the index of the current page.

Returns
int The index of the current page.

getPageCount

int getPageCount ()

Returns the page count.

Returns

Returns
CharSequence The title of the page.

onCreateBackgroundView

View onCreateBackgroundView (LayoutInflater inflater, 
                ViewGroup container)

Called to have the inherited class create background view. This is optional and the fragment which doesn't have the background view can return null. This is called inside onCreateView(LayoutInflater, ViewGroup, Bundle).

Parameters
inflater LayoutInflater: The LayoutInflater object that can be used to inflate the views,
container ViewGroup: The parent view that the additional views are attached to.The fragment should not add the view by itself.
Returns
View The background view for the onboarding screen, or null.

onCreateContentView

View onCreateContentView (LayoutInflater inflater, 
                ViewGroup container)

Called to have the inherited class create content view. This is optional and the fragment which doesn't have the content view can return null. This is called inside onCreateView(LayoutInflater, ViewGroup, Bundle).

The content view would be located at the center of the screen.

Parameters
inflater LayoutInflater: The LayoutInflater object that can be used to inflate the views,
container ViewGroup: The parent view that the additional views are attached to.The fragment should not add the view by itself.
Returns
View The content view for the onboarding screen, or null.

onCreateEnterAnimation

Animator onCreateEnterAnimation ()

Called to have the inherited class create its enter animation. The start animation runs after logo animation ends.

Returns
Animator The Animator object which runs the page enter animation.

onCreateForegroundView

View onCreateForegroundView (LayoutInflater inflater, 
                ViewGroup container)
