#Hierarchy Viewer

Hierarchy Viewer is a library which allows to display views tree of your application in the simple way on your Gooogle Chrome browser. ##How to use?

###Download

Via gradle. In main build.gradle :

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven {
            url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots"
        }
    }
}

Add library:

compile 'com.polidea:hierarchyviewer:1.0.2'

or Maven. Add plugin repository:

<pluginRepository>
    <url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/</url>
    <snapshots>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
    </snapshots>
</pluginRepository>

Add library:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.polidea</groupId>
  <artifactId>hierarchyviewer</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

It is a stable version of library

###In code

If you want to just display your views tree - without your custom values or your custom views - you have to call the start(Context) static method from HierarchyViewer class, in the onCreate() method in your application object as is shown in the code below:

public class YourApplication extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        HierarchyViewer.start(this);
    }
}

If you create your custom view and you want to display some custom values for your view you have to implement your own model for this view which extends from model correspondent for view.

For example:

You created you own MyTextView which contains members superHint as is shown in the code below:

public class MyTextView extends TextView {
    private String supperHint;
    public MyTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        supperHint = "Default super hint";
    }
    
    public void setSupperHint(String supperHint){
        this.supperHint = supperHint;
    }
    public String getSupperHint() {
        return supperHint;
    }
}

If you want to display superHint value you have to create ViewModelInfor which extends TextViewModelInfo (if you extended view which is not supported by Hierarchy View Library you can extends ViewModelInfo) as is shown in the code below:

public class MyTextViewModelInfo extends TextViewModelInfo {
   @SerializedName("my_custom_item_value")
   String myCustomItem;
   
   @Override
   public void setDataFromView(View view, ConvertersContainer convertersContainer) {
       super.setDataFromView(view, convertersContainer);
       myCustomItem = ((MyTextView) view).getSupperHint();
   }
}

Now you have to add your view model info for confing which is passed as param for Hierarchy Viewer Library as is shown in the code below:

public class MyApplication extends Application {
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        Config config = new Config.Builder()
            .add(MyTextView.class, new MyTextViewModelInfo())
            .build();
        HierarchyViewer.start(this, config);
    }
}

Your value will be displayed in properties table as MY_CUSTOM_ITEM_VALUE.

###Using When you run your applicaiton you will see notification which will inform you about server ip address. Imporatnt! Your computer has to be in the same network as your device.

When you will open link in your browser you wil see infromation about your views tree.Imporatnt! This works only on Google Chrome.
