1. Create a new Android project
Create a new Android project in Android Studio with the package name com.example.buildianotes
.
2. Set up dependencies
Set up the necessary dependencies in the build.gradle
files.
Top-level build.gradle
buildscript {
ext.kotlin_version = '1.5.21'
// Add other dependencies if needed
}
allprojects {
repositories {
// Add necessary repositories
google()
jcenter()
}
}
App-level build.gradle
plugins {
id 'com.android.application'
id 'kotlin-android'
id 'kotlin-kapt'
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 30
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.example.buildianotes"
minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 30
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
// Add necessary configurations
buildTypes {
release {
// Add necessary configurations
}
}
}
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"
// Room
implementation "androidx.room:room-runtime:2.4.0"
kapt "androidx.room:room-compiler:2.4.0"
// Koin
implementation "org.koin:koin-androidx-viewmodel:3.2.0"
// Add other necessary dependencies
}
3. Create the data model
Create the data model for the Note entity. Create a new Kotlin class called Note
in the com.example.buildianotes.model
package.
package com.example.buildianotes.model
import androidx.room.Entity
import androidx.room.PrimaryKey
@Entity(tableName = "notes")
data class Note(
@PrimaryKey(autoGenerate = true) val id: Long = 0,
val title: String,
val content: String
)
4. Create the Room DAO
Create a new Kotlin file called NotesDao
in the com.example.buildianotes.data
package for defining the Room DAO (Data Access Object) interface.
package com.example.buildianotes.data
import androidx.lifecycle.LiveData
import androidx.room.*
@Dao
interface NotesDao {
@Query("SELECT * FROM notes")
fun getAllNotes(): LiveData<List<Note>>
@Insert(onConflict = OnConflictStrategy.REPLACE)
suspend fun insertOrUpdate(note: Note)
@Delete
suspend fun delete(note: Note)
}
5. Create the Room database
Create a new Kotlin file called NotesDatabase
in the com.example.buildianotes.data
package to define the Room database.
package com.example.buildianotes.data
import android.content.Context
import androidx.room.Database
import androidx.room.Room
import androidx.room.RoomDatabase
import com.example.buildianotes.model.Note
@Database(entities = [Note::class], version = 1)
abstract class NotesDatabase : RoomDatabase() {
abstract fun notesDao(): NotesDao
companion object {
@Volatile
private var INSTANCE: NotesDatabase? = null
fun getInstance(context: Context): NotesDatabase {
return INSTANCE ?: synchronized(this) {
val instance = Room.databaseBuilder(
context.applicationContext,
NotesDatabase::class.java,
"notes_database"
).build()
INSTANCE = instance
instance
}
}
}
}
6. Create the data repository
Create a new Kotlin file called NotesRepository
in the com.example.buildianotes.data
package to handle data operations.
package com.example.buildianotes.data
import androidx.lifecycle.LiveData
import com.example.buildianotes.model.Note
class NotesRepository(private val notesDao: NotesDao) {
val allNotes: LiveData<List<Note>> = notesDao.getAllNotes()
suspend fun insertOrUpdate(note: Note) {
notesDao.insertOrUpdate(note)
}
suspend fun delete(note: Note) {
notesDao.delete(note)
}
}
7. Create the ViewModel
Create a new Kotlin file called NotesViewModel
in the com.example.buildianotes.viewmodel
package to implement the ViewModel.
package com.example.buildianotes.viewmodel
import androidx.lifecycle.LiveData
import androidx.lifecycle.ViewModel
import androidx.lifecycle.viewModelScope
import com.example.buildianotes.data.NotesRepository
import com.example.buildianotes.model.Note
import kotlinx.coroutines.launch
class NotesViewModel(private val notesRepository: NotesRepository) : ViewModel() {
val allNotes: LiveData<List<Note>> = notesRepository.allNotes
fun insertOrUpdate(note: Note) {
viewModelScope.launch {
notesRepository.insertOrUpdate(note)
}
}
fun delete(note: Note) {
viewModelScope.launch {
notesRepository.delete(note)
}
}
}
8. Set up dependency injection with Koin
Create a new Kotlin file called AppModule
in the com.example.buildianotes.di
package to define the dependency injection with Koin.
package com.example.buildianotes.di
import com.example.buildianotes.data.NotesDatabase
import com.example.buildianotes.data.NotesRepository
import com.example.buildianotes.viewmodel.NotesViewModel
import org.koin.androidx.viewmodel.dsl.viewModel
import org.koin.dsl.module
val appModule = module {
single { NotesDatabase.getInstance(get()) }
single { get<NotesDatabase>().notesDao() }
single { NotesRepository(get()) }
viewModel { NotesViewModel(get()) }
}
9. Initialize Koin in the Application class
In your Application
class, initialize Koin with the AppModule
in the onCreate()
method. Create a new Kotlin file called NotesApp
in the com.example.buildianotes
package.
package com.example.buildianotes
import android.app.Application
import com.example.buildianotes.di.appModule
import org.koin.android.ext.koin.androidContext
import org.koin.core.context.startKoin
class NotesApp : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
startKoin {
androidContext(this@NotesApp)
modules(appModule)
}
}
}
10. Create the UI for displaying and managing notes
Create an activity or fragment for displaying and managing the notes. For example, create a new Kotlin file called NotesActivity
in the com.example.buildianotes.ui
package.
package com.example.buildianotes.ui
import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import androidx.lifecycle.Observer
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager
import com.example.buildianotes.R
import com.example.buildianotes.model.Note
import com.example.buildianotes.viewmodel.NotesViewModel
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_notes.*
import org.koin.androidx.viewmodel.ext.android.viewModel
class NotesActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private val notesViewModel: NotesViewModel by viewModel()
private val notesAdapter = NotesAdapter()
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_notes)
setupRecyclerView()
observeNotes()
fabAddNote.setOnClickListener {
// Handle click event to add a new note
}
}
private fun setupRecyclerView() {
rvNotes.apply {
layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this@NotesActivity)
adapter = notesAdapter
}
}
private fun observeNotes() {
notesViewModel.allNotes.observe(this, Observer { notes ->
notesAdapter.submitList(notes)
})
}
}
11. Create the RecyclerView adapter
Finally, create the NotesAdapter
class to handle the RecyclerView in the com.example.buildianotes.ui
package.
package com.example.buildianotes.ui
import android.view.LayoutInflater
import android.view.View
import android.view.ViewGroup
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.DiffUtil
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.ListAdapter
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
import com.example.buildianotes.R
import com.example.buildianotes.model.Note
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.item_note.view.*
class NotesAdapter : ListAdapter<Note, NotesAdapter.NoteViewHolder>(NoteDiffCallback()) {
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): NoteViewHolder {
val view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context).inflate(R.layout.item_note, parent, false)
return NoteViewHolder(view)
}
override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: NoteViewHolder, position: Int) {
val note = getItem(position)
holder.bind(note)
}
inner class NoteViewHolder(itemView: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(itemView) {
fun bind(note: Note) {
itemView.tvTitle.text = note.title
itemView.tvContent.text = note.content
}
}
class NoteDiffCallback : DiffUtil.ItemCallback<Note>() {
override fun areItemsTheSame(oldItem: Note, newItem: Note): Boolean {
return oldItem.id == newItem.id
}
override fun areContentsTheSame(oldItem: Note, newItem: Note): Boolean {
return oldItem == newItem
}
}
}
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully created a Notes app for Android using Kotlin, MVVM architecture, Koin DI, and Room. This app allows you to store and manage notes using a local database.
Feel free to customize the app further by adding more features, such as editing and deleting notes, adding labels or categories, implementing search functionality, and adding authentication.
