First of all, download color resource from here and save it to res/values/.
Let's define MaterialPalette
class with two methods for color acquisition.
public class MaterialPalette { private static int DEFAULT_COLOR = Color.BLACK; private static String[] colors = {"md_red", "md_pink", "md_purple", "md_deep_purple", "md_indigo", "md_blue", "md_light_blue", "md_cyan", "md_teal", "md_green", "md_light", "md_lime", "md_yellow", "md_amber", "md_orange", "md_deep_orange", "md_brown", "md_grey", "md_blue_grey"}; private static String[] depths = {"50", "100", "200", "300", "400", "500", "600", "700", "800", "900", "A100", "A200", "A400", "A700"}; public static int getColor(Context ctx, String color, String depth) { if (!Arrays.asList(colors).contains(color)) return DEFAULT_COLOR; if (!Arrays.asList(depths).contains(depth)) return DEFAULT_COLOR; int colorId = ctx.getResources().getIdentifier(color + "_" + depth, "color", ctx.getPackageName()); return ContextCompat.getColor(ctx, colorId); } public static int getRandomColor(Context ctx, String depth) { if (!Arrays.asList(depths).contains(depth)) return DEFAULT_COLOR; int index = (int) (Math.random() * colors.length); String color = colors[index]; return getColor(ctx, color, depth); } }
I'm going to show simple example of MaterialPalette
class and TextView
with rounded background. I use following drawable for rounded background
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="oval"> <solid android:color="#F00"/> <stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#FFF"/> <padding android:top="10dp" android:right="10dp" android:left="10dp" android:bottom="10dp"/> </shape>
Below you can see simple layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:paddingTop="10dp" android:orientation="vertical"> <TextView android:id="@+id/tv" android:text="K" android:layout_width="60dp" android:layout_height="60dp" android:textSize="30sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:textAlignment="center" android:textColor="@android:color/white" android:background="@drawable/circle"/> </LinearLayout>
And MainActivity
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity { private Activity activity = MainActivity.this; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_fonts); TextView tv = findViewById(R.id.tv1); Drawable bg = tv.getBackground(); bg.setColorFilter(MaterialPalette.getRandomColor(activity,"600"), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP); tv.setBackground(bg); tv.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View view) { bg.setColorFilter(MaterialPalette.getRandomColor(activity,"600"), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP); tv.setBackground(bg); } }); } }
Result
