# MarkwonView

This is simple library containing 2 views that are able to display markdown:

• MarkwonView - extends android.view.TextView
• MarkwonViewCompat - extends android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView

Both of them implement common IMarkwonView interface:

public interface IMarkwonView {

    interface ConfigurationProvider {
        @NonNull
        SpannableConfiguration provide(@NonNull Context context);
    }

    void setConfigurationProvider(@NonNull ConfigurationProvider provider);

    void setMarkdown(@Nullable String markdown);
    void setMarkdown(@Nullable SpannableConfiguration configuration, @Nullable String markdown);

    @Nullable
    String getMarkdown();
}

Both views support layout-preview in Android Studio (with some exceptions, for example, bold span is not rendered due to some limitations of layout preview). These are XML attributes:

app:mv_markdown="string"
app:mv_configurationProvider="string"

mv_markdown accepts a string and represents raw markdown

mv_configurationProvider accepts a string and represents a full class name of a class of type ConfigurationProvider, for example: com.example.my.package.MyConfigurationProvider (this class must have an empty constructor in order to be instantiated via reflection).

Please note that those views parse markdown in main thread, so their usage must be for relatively small markdown portions only
