CanvasDSL 2

Simple lightweight kotlin-dsl for canvas drawings in old-style xml-layout apps (if you draw on canvas with compose you don't need it).

Inspired by VectorMaster and various kotlin DSL-s. Used in production to visualize fitness tracker measures.

Key features

• Inherited from standard drawable
• Easy to use for value animation
• SVG-like primitives
• Supports references to predefined groups
• Viewport mechanics with relative "viewport points"
• No compatibility limits - works with minimum android sdk 1
• One dependency: kotlin stdlib, you should use it anyway for kotlin
• Using vector drawables as resource or convert in primitives
• Using path from string (vector drawable pathData or svg pathData)

Usecases

• Charts
• Progress bars, charge indicators
• Visualizations of constantly updated data
• Bitmap decoration
• Animate on canvas

Usage

Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

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

Add the dependency:

	dependencies {
	        implementation 'com.github.AlexeyErofeev:canvasdsl:2.0'
	}

groupFromDrawing needs kotlin context receivers to use Context, so use in your kotlinOptions:

    freeCompilerArgs = ["-Xcontext-receivers"]
