A library that generates an activity based on the required permissions for your app. It loads the permissions into a list and will request them upon continuing through the activity flow.
The library is on jCenter by default. Add this in your app's build.gradle file:
dependencies {
compile 'com.amqtech:perms-helper:1.0.1'
}
To launch the permissions activity, simply write the following code:
// Sample set up that explains to the user that you need access to device location.
new PermissionsActivity(getBaseContext())
// Your app name. You MUST set this, otherwise bad things will happen!
.withAppName(getResources().getString(R.string.app_name))
// The permissions you need
.withPermissions(new Permission(Permissions.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Permissions.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION))
// Callback
.withPermissionFlowCallback(new PermissionsActivity.PermissionFlowCallback() {
@Override
public void onPermissionGranted(Permission permission) {
// if the permission was granted
}
@Override
public void onPermissionDenied(Permission permission) {
// if the permission was denied
}
})
// Set status bar color
.setStatusBarColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"))
// Set status bar icon color - true = dark icons; false (default) = light icons
.isStatusBarLight(true)
// Set background color
.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"))
// Set background color behind the buttons
.setBarColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"))
// Set main text color
.setMainTextColor(Color.parseColor("#444444"))
// Set bar button text color
.setBarTextColor(Color.parseColor("#444444"))
// Set navigation bar color
.setNavBarColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"))
// Change color of icons - it is advised that this be the same color as your text
.setIconColor(Color.parseColor("#444444"))
// Launch the permissions activity
.launch();
The color methods are optional, and have defaults already set. The withAppName()
, withPermissions()
, withPermissionsFlowCallback()
, and launch()
methods are required for the library to work properly. Also, these methods are called only once. You don't need to call withPermissions()
for each permission you are requesting, but rather pass all of them in one method call. Refer to the sample app to see how this is done.
The library comes preloaded with default permission explanations if you wish to use them.
// Example
new Permission(Permissions.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, Permissions.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION_EXPLANATION)

I was exploring the Android Auto app when I noticed the way they present required permissions to the user. That got me thinking that I could create a library that does exactly that.
