I'm reading the document of InputTransformation and it leads me to a sample under - androidx.compose.foundation.samples.BasicTextFieldCustomInputTransformationSample
This is what I see from Android Studio
The thing is I can't find that sample anywhere on the internet or at least I didn't find it hard enough. Does anyone have any idea where I can see those samples?
Have a look at the Google Code Search. There you can find the source code of Android, AndroidX, and others. When you enter androidx.compose.foundation.samples.BasicTextFieldCustomInputTransformationSample
there, you will find the BasicTextFieldSamples
file line 320
:
@Sampled
@Composable
fun BasicTextFieldCustomInputTransformationSample() {
// Demonstrates how to create a custom and relatively complex InputTransformation.
val state = remember { TextFieldState() }
BasicTextField(state, inputTransformation = {
// A filter that always places newly-input text at the start of the string, after a
// prompt character, like a shell.
val promptChar = '>'
fun CharSequence.countPrefix(char: Char): Int {
var i = 0
while (i < length && get(i) == char) i++
return i
}
// Step one: Figure out the insertion point.
val newPromptChars = asCharSequence().countPrefix(promptChar)
val insertionPoint = if (newPromptChars == 0) 0 else 1
// Step two: Ensure text is placed at the insertion point.
if (changes.changeCount == 1) {
val insertedRange = changes.getRange(0)
val replacedRange = changes.getOriginalRange(0)
if (!replacedRange.collapsed && insertedRange.collapsed) {
// Text was deleted, delete forwards from insertion point.
delete(insertionPoint, insertionPoint + replacedRange.length)
}
}
// Else text was replaced or there were multiple changes - don't handle.
// Step three: Ensure the prompt character is there.
if (newPromptChars == 0) {
insert(0, ">")
}
// Step four: Ensure the cursor is ready for the next input.
placeCursorAfterCharAt(0)
})
}
As it turns out, it is the exact same snippet that is provided in the documentation for InputTransformation
.
