Have you wondered what will give you a higher chance of letting the user accepts your permission?
The answer is simple: (Educating UI) that explains why you need to use that particular
permission
.
-
All you need to do is extending BasePermissionActivity.
- By extending
BasePermissionActivity
you'll have control over (Features):- Permissions that being asked and their Explanation if its needed.
- Each
Screen
Background color (DarkPrimaryColor
of that background will be generated automatically). - Each
Screen
Image Resource. - Each
Screen
Title & Message. - Each
Screen
Title & Message Text Color. - Each
Screen
Title & Message Text Size. - Each
Screen
Text & MessageFontType
, yes you heard me right, eachScreen
can have their ownFontType
. - Each
Screen
Next, Previous & Request Buttons Icon Resources. - Your Own
Theme
. - Your Own Implementation of
ViewPager.PageTransformer
or use the default one. - You can defined for instance that a particular permission can't be skipped until the Explanation
Dialog
is showed.(follow example code below to know how). BasePermissionActivity
support Portrait & Landscape modes for both Mobile Phones & Tablets (as showing in above images).SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW Permission
is being automatically handled if you ever pass it along other permissions ;) .
- By extending
-
And Finally Let The Library Do The Job For You. in Style.
Notice
You still can use the library to explain why you used the permission in your app, the library will never try ask the permission if Android is smaller than M, it will just do like any Intro library does. as you can see in Nexus 7 & Nexus 10 screens running Android L, request button is hidden ;).
For Better Understanding, please have a look at the example code at SamplePagerActivity
Your Activity/Fragment/Presenter
should implement OnPermissionCallback
which in return will give you access to
void onPermissionGranted(String[] permissionName);
void onPermissionDeclined(String[] permissionName);
void onPermissionPreGranted(String permissionsName);
void onPermissionNeedExplanation(String permissionName);
void onPermissionReallyDeclined(String permissionName);//user has ticked don't show again and deny the permission
void onNoPermissionNeeded(); // fallback to api < M
to request a permission all you have to do is:
- Activity
permissionHelper
.setForceAccepting(false)// true if you had like force reshowing the permission dialog on Deny (not recommended)
.request(isSingle ? SINGLE_PERMISSION : MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS);
- Fragment
permissionFragmentHelper
.setForceAccepting(false)// true if you had like force reshowing the permission dialog on Deny (not recommended)
.request(isSingle ? SINGLE_PERMISSION : MULTIPLE_PERMISSIONS);
To request a permission without ask for explanation message even if the user press decline:
permissionHelper
.setSkipExplanation(true)// true if you don't want to show expalanation message
.request(CAMERA_PERMISSION);
and finally in your `Activity/Fragment`
```java
onRequestPermissionsResult(....)
call
permissionHelper.onRequestPermissionsResult(....)
- Depends on whether you using
PermissionHelper
orPermissionFragmentHelper
you can call these methods
public static String declinedPermission(@NonNull Context/Fragment context, @NonNull String[])
public static String[] declinedPermissions(@NonNull Context/Fragment context, @NonNull String[] permissions)
public static boolean isPermissionGranted(@NonNull Context/Fragment context, @NonNull String permission)
public static boolean isPermissionDeclined(@NonNull Context/Fragment context, @NonNull String permission)
public static boolean isExplanationNeeded(@NonNull Activity/Fragment context, @NonNull String permissionName)
public static boolean permissionExists(@NonNull Context/Fragment context, @NonNull String permissionName)
public static boolean isPermissionPermanentlyDenied(@NonNull Activity/Fragment context, @NonNull String permission)
public static void openSettingsScreen(Context/Fragment context)//useful when we can't request for the permission due to user ticked don't show again.
@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
public static boolean isSystemAlertGranted(@NonNull Context/Fragment context)// special case for SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission.
all of the above static methods you can still access them with PermissionHelper or PermissionFragmentHelper instance.
- To understand more how taking control would look like please go through the
Activity
SampleActivity
Fragment
SampleFragment
- Its simple to use.
- Its Unique, Customizable & read back first point.
- You have two choices, do it your way through
callbacks
, or let theLibrary
do it for you with your look & Feel. - Minimum API is 14, but it'll probably work in API 11 and above, just make sure you test it out.
