Group of Preference, just like the Preference of original Android.
[DEPPERCATED] You should not support pre-Lollipop in 2018.
Easy to use and good effect in pre-Lollipop.
1. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}
2. Add the dependencies
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.XhinLiang.MDPreference:mdpreference:0.3.2@aar'
// You should add this because the 'mdpreference' depend on this
compile 'com.github.XhinLiang.MDPreference:material:0.3.2@aar'
// You should add these because the 'material' depend on them
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.1.1'
}
1. define the xml of PreferenceFragment
in "../res/xml/your_xml_name.xml"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.PreferenceCategory android:title="Alert Settings">
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.CheckBoxPreference
android:key="preference_key_remind_the_same_day1"
android:summary="Alert in the birthday"
android:title="Alert first" />
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.SwitchPreference
android:key="preference_key_remind_the_same_day3"
android:summary="Alert in three day before birthday"
android:title="Alert second" />
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.EditTextPreference
android:key="preference_key_remind_the_same_daywwwd2"
android:summary="Alert in a week before the birthday"
android:positiveButtonText="OK"
android:negativeButtonText="Cancel
android:dialogTitle="Dialog"
android:title="Alert third" />
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.SwitchPreference
android:key="preference_key_remind_the_same_day34"
android:summary="Alert in two weeks before the birthday"
android:title="Alert fourth" />
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.ListPreference
android:key="preference_key_alert_timess"
android:summary="Select alert time"
android:title="Alert time"
app:entry_arr="@array/alert_time_entry"
app:format_str="%s"
app:value_arr="@array/alert_time_value" />
<io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.MultiSelectListPreference
android:key="preference_key_alert_timeddwexss"
android:summary="Select alert time"
android:title="Alert time"
app:entry_arr="@array/alert_time_entry"/>
</io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.PreferenceCategory>
</PreferenceScreen>
2. Create your SettingsFragment
which extends io.github.xhinliang.mdpreference.PreferenceFragment
public class SettingsFragment extends PreferenceFragment {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getPreferenceManager().setSharedPreferencesName(getString(R.string.app_name));
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preference_settings);
}
}

EditTextPreference
ListPreference
MultiSelectListPreference
PreferenceCategory
