Light version view binding on ButterKnife's concepts.

ButterKnifeLite

##Android View initializer and onClick Listener boiler plate code remover

####This library is based on the ideas of ButterKnife but with use cases targeted for view binding of xml. Resulting is a tiny and compact library that don't hamper the existing project with lots of unused codes and consuming unneccessery build apk size

##@BindView annotation to refer any view defined in XML (Note: Use public Keyword)

 @BindView(R.id.txtView)
 public TextView textView1;

 

##@OnClick annotation to set onClick method for any view defined in XML

@OnClick(R.id.btn1)
public void onBtn1Click(){
    textView1.setText("Btn 1 click");
}

##For Any class with inflated view from XML can be used as described below ##For example in a Fragment

public class MyFragment extends Fragment {

    @BindView(R.id.txtView)
    public TextView txtView;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View promptsView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_fragment, container, false);
        ButterKnifeLite.bind(this, promptsView);
        return promptsView;
    }

    @OnClick(R.id.btn1)
    public void onBtn1Click(){
        txtView.setText("Btn 1 frag click");
    }

    @OnClick(R.id.btn2)
    public void onBtn2Click(){
        txtView.setText("Btn 2 frag click");
    }

    @Override
    public void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        ButterKnifeLite.unbind(this);
    }
}

##Call ButterKnifeLite.unbind(this) in the onDestroy() method

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
    super.onDestroy();
    ButterKnifeLite.unbind(this);
}

For other classes

@Override
protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
    super.finalize();
    ButterKnifeLite.unbind(this);
}
