Using custom login button with Twitter Fabric?
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(); } }); }});@Overrideprotected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int responseCode, Intent intent) { mTwitterAuthClient.onActivityResult(requestCode, responseCode, intent);}
Well actually there's a way of doing this
private TwitterAuthClient client;@Overrideprotected 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(); } }); } });}@Overrideprotected 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"/>
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.
