This library provides an easy way to display a change log in your app.
- Displays changes since the last app update
- Can display the complete change log history
- Uses a simple XML file as source
- Supports partial translations
- Easily extendable to use something other than a dialog
Repository at https://github.com/cketti/ckChangeLog.
- Create the master change log in
res/xml/changelog_master.xml. Formatted like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<changelog>
<release version="1.1" versioncode="11" >
<change>Totally new and shiny version</change>
</release>
<release version="1.0" versioncode="10" >
<change>Fixed: A bug fix</change>
<change>Some other changes I can't quite remember</change>
</release>
<release version="0.1" versioncode="1">
<change>First release</change>
</release>
</changelog>-
Create translations of this
changelog_master.xmlfile in files namedchangelog.xmlunder language-specific versions ofres/xml/, e.g.res/xml-de/changelog.xml. -
Display the change log dialog by putting the following code in your activity's
onCreate()method:
ChangeLog cl = new ChangeLog(this);
if (cl.isFirstRun()) {
cl.getLogDialog().show();
}The easiest way to add ckChangeLog to your project is via Gradle. Just add the following lines to your build.gradle:
dependencies {
compile 'de.cketti.library.changelog:ckchangelog:1.2.2'
}To tell Gradle where to find the library, make sure build.gradle also contains this:
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}In order to change the labels of the dialog add the following items to your strings.xml:
<string name="changelog_full_title">Change Log</string>
<string name="changelog_title">What\'s New</string>
<string name="changelog_ok_button">OK</string>
<string name="changelog_show_full">More…</string>
