Easy font usage in your Android XML layouts. This is a fork of Lisa Wray's fontbinding.

• Based on Data Binding
• Written in Kotlin
• Automatic initialization
• Automatic font caching
• Homogeneous android:font usage
• Tiny size: 14 KB
• Minimum Android SDK: 7
• Available through jCenter

Simply use android:font='@{"YourFontFileNameWithoutExtension"}' in your TextViews:

<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Hello World!"
            android:font='@{"Alegreya-Bold"}' />

    </RelativeLayout>

</layout>

• Make sure you use <layout> as root tag and write the quotation marks in the right way: '@{"file"}' or "@{`file`}"
• Use DataBindingUtil.setContentView(...) or DataBindingUtil.inflate(...) to inflate your layouts
• Font files must be located in your assets\fonts\ folder
• Android Studio may warn you in the android:font line with "unknown attribute". Don't worry
• You might want to check LastAdapter to use it with RecyclerView

FontBinder automatically caches used typefaces to avoid recreating them in the future. To use the cached typefaces programmatically:

// Java
mTextView.setTypeface(FontBinder.get("FontFileNameWithoutExtension"));

// Kotlin
mTextView.typeface = FontBinder["FontFileNameWithoutExtension"]

android {
    ...
    dataBinding { 
        enabled true 
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.nitrico.fontbinder:fontbinder:1.0.2'
}
