⟳ loglifecycle 
Logs all lifecycle methods of annotated activities, fragments, views, etc. on Android.
###Usage
Inside your build.gradle file, add :
apply plugin: 'loglifecycle'And now, annotate every Activity you want to see its life cycle logged in logcat :
@LogLifeCycle
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
...
}You will see something like this in logcat :
> adb logcat | grep ⟳

D/LogLifeCycle( 4640): MainActivity [1384162984] ⟳ onAttachedToWindow
D/LogLifeCycle( 4640): MainActivity [1384162984] ⟳ onWindowFocusChangedExtra features :
- release builds won't log anything, indeed the app is not modified at all in release builds.
- this plugin will add only a few more bytes to your app : log statements, and the annotation class, nothing more.
###Example
You will find an example app using LogLifeCycle in the repo.
