Page Curl

Page Curl library for Jetpack Compose.

Motivation

This library allows to create an effect of turning pages, which can be used in book reader applications, custom on-boarding screens or elsewhere.

Usage

Get a dependency

Step 1. Add the MavenCentral repository to your build file. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Or in settings.gradle:

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        ...
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency. Check latest version on the releases page.

dependencies {
    implementation 'io.github.oleksandrbalan:pagecurl:$version'
}

Use in Composable

The PageCurl has 2 mandatory arguments:

• count - The count of pages.
• content - The content lambda to provide the page composable. Receives the page number.

val pages = listOf("One", "Two", "Three")
PageCurl(count = pages.size) { index ->
    Box(
        contentAlignment = Alignment.Center,
        modifier = Modifier
            .background(MaterialTheme.colors.background)
            .fillMaxSize()
    ) {
        Text(
            text = pages[index],
            style = MaterialTheme.typography.h1,
        )
    }
}

Optionally state could be provided to observe and manage PageCurl state.

• state - The state of the PageCurl. Use it to programmatically change the current page or observe changes, and to configure shadow, back-page and interactions.

Column {
    val scope = rememberCoroutineScope()
    val state = rememberPageCurlState()
    Button(onClick = { scope.launch { state.next() } }) {
        Text(text = "Next")
    }

    val pages = listOf("One", "Two", "Three")
    PageCurl(
        count = pages.size,
        state = state,
    ) { index ->
        Box(
            contentAlignment = Alignment.Center,
            modifier = Modifier
                .background(MaterialTheme.colors.background)
                .fillMaxSize()
        ) {
            Text(
                text = pages[index],
                style = MaterialTheme.typography.h1,
            )
        }
    }
}

Optionally key lambda could be provided with stable key for each item. PageCurl with keys for each page will correctly preserve a current position when items are added or removed.

• key - The lambda to provide stable key for each item. Useful when adding and removing items before current page.

Column {
    var pages by remember { mutableStateOf(listOf("Four", "Five", "Six")) }
    Button(onClick = { pages = listOf("One", "Two", "Three") + pages }) {
        Text(text = "Prepend new pages")
    }

    PageCurl(
        count = pages.size,
        key = { pages[it].hashCode() },
    ) { index ->
        Box(
            contentAlignment = Alignment.Center,
            modifier = Modifier
                .background(MaterialTheme.colors.background)
                .fillMaxSize()
        ) {
            Text(
                text = pages[index],
                style = MaterialTheme.typography.h1,
            )
        }
    }
}
