Carousel ViewPager

Carousel ViewPager

If you want a good tutorial in your apps, you can make a carousel.

We can use my favorite library for tutorial

    compile "com.romandanylyk:pageindicatorview:0.1.1"

Example in GitHub

In the layout We should add ViewPager and the Indicator.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:attrs="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/activity_main"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.thedeveloperworldisyours.carouselviewpager.MainActivity">


    <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
        android:id="@+id/activity_main_view_pager"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    <com.rd.PageIndicatorView
        android:id="@+id/tutorial_activity_page_indicator_view"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
        attrs:piv_animationType="drop"
        attrs:piv_dynamicCount="true"
        attrs:piv_interactiveAnimation="true"
        attrs:piv_padding="16dp"
        attrs:piv_radius="8dp"
        attrs:piv_selectedColor="@color/colorAccent"
        attrs:piv_unselectedColor="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
        attrs:piv_viewPager="@id/activity_main_view_pager" />

</RelativeLayout>

We can custom the item

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <com.thedeveloperworldisyours.carouselviewpager.CustomLinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/item_root"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@android:color/transparent"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/item_text"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textSize="@dimen/item_size_text" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/item_content"
            android:layout_width="230dp"
            android:layout_height="120dp"
            android:background="@android:color/black"/>
