Deprecated if using Kotlin

If you are using Kotlin on your project, use SpanK instead (you can think of it as the the newest version of this library, but is meant for Kotlin only). Is better suited for Kotlin, plus has some nice quality of life inprovements that this library doesn't include just because of how verbose it would be. Please check it out and hope you enjoy it.

SpanEZ

Complete abstraction from the Spannable API. Forget about all the boiler plate code and all the [Object what][1] nonsense that you have to deal with when working with Spannable.

• Eliminate setSpan calls by using all the provided methods trough the StyleEZ interface.
• Chain multiple spans with a fluent style
• By using both the ContentEZ and StyleEZ interface it removes unnecessary methods from the autocomplete form, and thus it removes clutter.
• Allows different ways of adding content (String, String Resource and Formatted String)
• By default it does [INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE][2] to all the spans
• After calling any of the inclusive/exclusive methods, all the next methods will be using that flag until apply is called or another flag is used
• You can create your own locator by extending the Locator interface

How to use

Let's start with the easiest example, you need just one Span in your content

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private TextView sample;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        sample = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.sample_text);
        SpanEZ.from(sample)                                         // 1. pass the target TextView
              .withContent(R.string.lorem_ipsum)                    // 2. pass the content
              .style(Word.findAll("ipsum dolor"), BOLD | UNDERLINE) // 3. chain styles (optional)
              .apply();                                             // 4. apply
    }
}

Now, let's go to the big leagues, you can get this and even more, and just with a couple of lines:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private TextView sample;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        sample = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.sample_text);
        SpanEZ.from(sample)
              .withContent(R.string.lorem_ipsum)
              .absoluteSize(Range.from(0, 5), 20)
              .absoluteSizeDP(Range.from(6, 10), 34)
              .exclusive()
              .backgroundColor(Word.findFirst("ipsum dolor"), R.color.colorPrimary)
              .backgroundColor(Range.from(30, 50), R.color.colorPrimaryDark)
              .foregroundColor(Range.from(45, 100), R.color.colorAccent)
              .inclusiveExclusive()
              .style(Word.findAll("ipsum"), BOLD | UNDERLINE)
              .style(Word.findFirst("ipsum"), ITALIC | STRIKETHROUGH)
              .link(Word.findFirst("ut ultricies dolor molestie eget. Aliquam scelerisque, elit sit amet faucibus tincidunt"), "http://www.google.com")
              .clickable(Word.findFirst("Mauris in lacus at nulla consectetur dapibus. Sed accumsan sapien nec nisi mattis pulvinar."), new OnSpanClickListener() {
                  @Override
                  public void onSpanClick(String spanContent) {
                      Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, spanContent, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                  }
              })
              .inclusive()
              .quote(Paragraph.containing("Lorem"))
              .scaleX(Range.from(60, 80), 2)
              .apply(); // Calling the apply method is the only one that MUST be done in UIThread
    }
}
