EditText Interceptor ⚡
EditTextInterceptor is a TextWatcher which intercepts on text changes considering a breakable timeout.
Actually, it delivers text changes along with typing status.
Suppose you have a search box which runs a query based on user input, on the fly.
Now, if you use an instance of TextWatcher to inform about text changes, the only choice is to run a query for each change.
Using EditTextInterceptor you'll be able to run a query after finishing the user typing.
It leads to reduce number of unused queries followed by performance optimization and less resource consumption.
Download
EditTextInterceptor is available on bintray to download using build tools systems. Add the following lines to your build.gradle file:
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
implementation 'com.aminography:edittext-interceptor:1.0.2'
}Usage
As an instance of EditTextInterceptor is a TextWatcher too, simply pass it to the EditText.addTextChangedListener().
// Intercept timeout is defined 500ms
editText.addTextChangedListener(object : EditTextInterceptor(500) {
override fun onInterceptText(text: String, isTyping: Boolean) {
// TODO
}
