Using custom login button with Twitter Fabric?
Well actually there's a way of doing this
private TwitterAuthClient client;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);
TwitterAuthConfig authConfig = new TwitterAuthConfig(TWITTER_KEY, TWITTER_SECRET);
Fabric.with(this, new Twitter(authConfig));
client = new TwitterAuthClient();
Button customLoginButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.custom_twitter_login);
customLoginButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
client.authorize(LoginActivity.this, new Callback<TwitterSession>() {
@Override
public void success(Result<TwitterSession> twitterSessionResult) {
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, "success", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void failure(TwitterException e) {
Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, "failure", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
});
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
client.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
Be aware, onActivityResult part is very important, you seem to lost it.
here's my xml:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Button
android:id="@+id/custom_twitter_login"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/padding_medium"
android:text="@string/twitter_login"/>
You can achieve this by using TwitterAuthClient
. i.e,
First of all create normal button like,
<Button
android:id:"@+id/twitter_custom_button"
... />
Now, in you java class file use TwitterAuthClient
instead of TwitterLoginButton
. then set your CallBack
inside Button
's onClick
TwitterAuthClient mTwitterAuthClient= new TwitterAuthClient();
Button twitter_custom_button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.twitter_custom_button);
twitter_custom_button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
mTwitterAuthClient.authorize(this, new com.twitter.sdk.android.core.Callback<TwitterSession>() {
@Override
public void success(Result<TwitterSession> twitterSessionResult) {
// Success
}
@Override
public void failure(TwitterException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
});
}
});
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int responseCode, Intent intent) {
mTwitterAuthClient.onActivityResult(requestCode, responseCode, intent);
}
Since Fabric doesn't allow theming yet, we should assume that we'll have to write potentially throw away code to get this to work. As such, I prefer less code to more code when I know I won't be keeping it.
Luis's solution will work fine, but my UI was done, with a button already, and I just wanted that button to work. Here's how I accomplished this.
Drop in the TwitterLoginButton, as requested by the Fabric wizard, but set it to visibility: gone
<com.twitter.sdk.android.core.identity.TwitterLoginButton
android:id="@+id/twitter_login_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:visibility="gone" />
Pull the reference of the loginButton in your Activity (also part of Fabric setup - nothing new here):
loginButton = (TwitterLoginButton) findViewById(R.id.twitter_login_button);
Finally, for my existing button, I added a click listener, which simply delegated the click event over to the twitter login button.
myLoginButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
loginButton.performClick();
}
});
Worked like a charm.
