# CircularImageView
A simple library to round your image by using this advance ImageView


It uses a BitmapShader and **does not**:
* create a copy of the original bitmap
* use a clipPath (which is neither hardware accelerated nor anti-aliased)
* use setXfermode to clip the bitmap (which means drawing twice to the canvas)

As this is just a custom ImageView and not a custom Drawable or a combination of both, it can be used with all kinds of drawables, i.e. a PicassoDrawable from [Picasso](https://github.com/square/picasso) or other non-standard drawables (needs some testing though).

Step 1. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
```
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://www.jitpack.io' }
}
}
```
Step 2. Add the dependency:
---------------------------
```
dependencies {
...
implementation 'com.github.MicroProgramer:CircularImageView:1.0.1'
}
```

Usage
-----
```xml
<com.microprogramer.library.CircularImageView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/profile_image"
android:layout_width="96dp"
android:layout_height="96dp"
android:src="@drawable/profile"
app:civ_border_width="2dp"
app:civ_border_color="#FF000000"/>
```

Limitations
-----------
* The ScaleType is always CENTER_CROP and you'll get an exception if you try to change it. This is (currently) by design as it's perfectly fine for profile images.
* Enabling `adjustViewBounds` is not supported as this requires an unsupported ScaleType
* If you use an image loading library like Picasso or Glide, you need to disable their fade animations to avoid messed up images. For Picasso use the `noFade()` option, for Glide use `dontAnimate()`. If you want to keep the fadeIn animation, you have to fetch the image into a `Target` and apply a custom animation yourself when receiving the `Bitmap`.
* Using a `TransitionDrawable` with `CircularImageView` doesn't work properly and leads to messed up images.

FAQ
---
**How can I use a `VectorDrawable` with `CircularImageView`?**

Short answer: you shouldn't. Using a `VectorDrawable` with `CircularImageView` is very inefficient. You should modify your vectors to be in a circular shape and use them with a regular ImageView instead.

**Why doesn't `CircularImageView` extend `AppCompatImageView`?**

Extending `AppCompatImageView` would require adding a runtime dependency for the support library without any real benefit.
