1 2 Android TextLinkify Sample 3 =================================== 4 5 This sample illustrates how links can be added to a TextView. This can be done either 6 automatically by setting the "autoLink" property or explicitly. 7 8 Introduction 9 ------------ 10 11 This sample demonstrates how clickable links can be added to a `TextView` in Android. 12 13 This can be done in three ways: 14 15 - **Automatically:** Text added to a TextView can automatically be linkified by enabling 16 autoLinking. In XML, use the `android:autoLink` property, programatically call 17 [android.widget.TextView#setAutoLinkMask(int)][1] using an option from 18 [android.text.util.Linkify][2]. 19 - **Parsing a String as HTML:** See [android.text.Html#fromHtml(String)][3]. 20 - **Manually by constructing a [android.text.SpannableString][4]:** Consisting of 21 [android.text.style.StyleSpan][5] and [android.text.style.URLSpan][6] objects that 22 are contained within a [android.text.SpannableString][7]. 23 24 [1]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html#setAutoLinkMask(int) 25 [2]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/util/Linkify.html 26 [3]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/Html.html#fromHtml(java.lang.String) 27 [4]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/SpannableString.html 28 [5]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/style/StyleSpan.html 29 [6]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/style/URLSpan.html 30 [7]: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/SpannableString.html 31 32 Pre-requisites 33 -------------- 34 35 - Android SDK 26 36 - Android Build Tools v26.0.1 37 - Android Support Repository 38 39 Screenshots 40 ------------- 41 42 <img src="screenshots/main.png" height="400" alt="Screenshot"/> 43 44 Getting Started 45 --------------- 46 47 This sample uses the Gradle build system.
