Material Motion for Android

The Material Motion for Android repo.

Learn more about the APIs defined in the library by reading our
technical documentation and our
Starmap.

Note: This repo is deprecated. Please use the Motion library in Material Components for Android instead: https://material.io/develop/android/theming/motion/.

Installation

Installation with Jitpack

Add the Jitpack repository to your project’s build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }
}

Depend on the latest version of the library.
Take care to occasionally check for updates.

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.material-motion:material-motion-android:1.0.0'
}

For more information regarding versioning, see:

• Material Motion Versioning Policies

Enable Java 8 language features.

android {
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
}

Note: You must use Android Studio 2.4 Preview 4 or newer.

Using the files from a folder local to the machine

You can have a copy of this library with local changes and test it in tandem
with its client project. To add a local dependency on this library, add this
library’s identifier to your project’s local.dependencies:

com.github.material-motion:material-motion-android

Because local.dependencies is never to be checked into Version Control
Systems, you must also ensure that any local dependencies are also defined in
build.gradle as explained in the previous section.

Important

For each local dependency listed, you must run gradle install from its
project root every time you make a change to it. That command will publish your
latest changes to the local maven repository. If your local dependencies have
local dependencies of their own, you must gradle install them as well.

You must gradle clean your project every time you add or remove a local
dependency.

Usage

How to use the library in your project.
