MaterialFileIcon

MaterialFileIcon is a simple, but an efficient library providing a way that equipping the material file icons to your desired image view or whatever you want it binds to. It's useful when you are developing a file manager or an IDE.

Features

• 50+ languages supported

  • Nodejs, React, Vue, etc...

Get Started

You are required to follow the instruction if you want to use this library in your project.

Add JitPack Repository

Add the JitPack repository to your root build.gradle or build.gradle (Project: xxx) inside Gradle Scripts.

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

However, if you’re using Android Studio Bumblebee, the method describes above is not working in this version. Instead, you need to add JitPack repository in your settings.gradle.

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}
dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

Add Dependency

Add the dependency in your app build.gradle or build.gradle (Module: xxx.app) inside Gradle Scripts.

The $version can be found in Releases.-

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.BlueWhaleYT:MaterialFileIcon:$version'
}

How to use?

It's simple, just by adding a few codes.

Note The icon to be displayed, depends on the extension name of the file path.

FileIconHelper fileIconHelper = new FileIconHelper(filePath);
fileIconHelper.bindIcon(imageView);

or you can simply get the file icon and use it not just to ImageView.

imageView.setImageResource(fileIconHelper.getFileIcon());

General icons

For example, if you file path is:

/{EXTERNAL_STORAGE}/MyFolder/main.py

It will display Python icon.

Environment icons

Environment icons means the icon of environment languages namely React, Vue, etc..

Warning Environment icons require valid file path.

fileIconHelper.setEnvironmentEnabled(true);

Dynamic folder icons

If you want to get rid of the plain, which only has blue and yellow folder appearance. You can enable this for more visual icons.

fileIconHelper.setDynamicFolderEnabled(true);

This option also supports environment icons.
