In your Application class
, you must initialize Colorful

public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Colorful.init(this);
}
}
Any Activity
you wish to be themed must extend from CActivity
public class MainActivity extends CActivity
You can set the default theme colors Colorful will use with the defaults()
method
public class SampleApp extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Colorful.defaults()
.primaryColor(Colorful.ThemeColor.RED)
.accentColor(Colorful.ThemeColor.BLUE)
.translucent(false)
.dark(true);
Colorful.init(this);
}
}
You can set the colors at any time using the config
method
Colorful.config(this)
.primaryColor(Colorful.ThemeColor.RED)
.accentColor(Colorful.ThemeColor.BLUE)
.translucent(false)
.dark(true)
.apply();
After which you must call apply();
to save your changes
Colorful will handle saving and loading your theme preferences for you.
Colorful has a inbuilt color chooser dialog that will return a ThemeColor
object you can pass directly to Colorful
public class MainActivity extends CActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setSupportActionBar(((Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar)));
ColorPickerDialog dialog = new ColorPickerDialog(this);
dialog.setOnColorSelectedListener(new ColorPickerDialog.OnColorSelectedListener() {
@Override
public void onColorSelected(Colorful.ThemeColor color) {
//TODO: Do something with the color
}
});
dialog.show();
}
}
Colorful has a inbuilt preference item that will automatically set Colorful's colors.
Use colorpicker:primary_color
and colorpicker:accent_color
to tell Colorful which value to set.
