Library that enables TextView of ImageView to show loading animation while waiting for the text and image get loaded

Loader View for Android

What It Is

Provide both TextView and ImageView the ability to show shimmer (animation loader) before any text or image is shown. Useful when waiting for data to be loaded from the network. Example below

Features / Usage

1. Loader View for TextView defined in layout XML

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

2. Loader View for ImageView defined in layout XML

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderImageView
        android:layout_width="100dp"
        android:layout_height="100dp" />

3. Define the % width of the TextView that shows the loading animation with width_weight

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:width_weight="0.4" />

4. Define the % height of the TextView that shows the loading animation with height_weight

   <com.elyeproj.loaderviewlibrary.LoaderTextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:height_weight="0.4" />

5. Setting the Text Style as BOLD would darken the loading shimmer

6. Other feature of TextView and ImageView is still applicable.
