Usage
Note: Use of the visualizer requires the permission android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO
so add it to your manifest file. Also for Android 6.0 and above you will need request permission in runtime.
Check out the Sample app, to see how its implemented.
- This library is available on JCenter. To use it, add the following to
build.gradle
dependencies {
implementation 'com.gauravk.audiovisualizer:audiovisualizer:0.9.2'
}
- Add the
com.gauravk.audiovisualizer.visualizer.BlastVisualizer
to your XML Layout file:
<com.gauravk.audiovisualizer.visualizer.BlastVisualizer
xmlns:custom="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/blast"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
custom:avDensity="0.8"
custom:avType="fill"
custom:avColor="@color/av_dark_blue"
custom:avSpeed="normal"/>
- Get the reference to this view in you Java Class
//get reference to visualizer
mVisualizer = findViewById(R.id.blast);
//TODO: init MediaPlayer and play the audio
//get the AudioSessionId from your MediaPlayer and pass it to the visualizer
int audioSessionId = mAudioPlayer.getAudioSessionId();
if (audioSessionId != -1)
mVisualizer.setAudioSessionId(audioSessionId);
Alternatively, you can pass the raw audio bytes to the visualizer
//get reference to visualizer
mVisualizer = findViewById(R.id.blast);
//TODO: get the raw audio bytes
//pass the bytes to visualizer
mVisualizer.setRawAudioBytes(bytes);
Now, release the visualizer in your onDestroy() or onStop()
@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (mVisualizer != null)
mVisualizer.release();
}
If you want to hide the view upon completion of the audio, use
//TODO: check for completion of audio eg. using MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener()
if (mVisualizer != null)
mVisualizer.hide();
Similarly, include other visualizer
