Gradient Layout for dynamic gradients in android (without drawable) – Library
Normally android uses a drawable shape resource for setting the gradient process, which sometimes is difficult as we need to create multiple resource files for using dynamic gradients.
Setting multiple gradients within Recycler view is also a tedious process. GradientLayout Library extends common Layouts (Linear, Relative, Table, etc…) and adds an attribute for mentioning gradient colors which enable users to design the layouts without creating any additional files.

dependencies {
compile 'net.colindodd:gradientlayout:1.2'
}<net.colindodd.gradientlayout.GradientRelativeLayout
xmlns:gl="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
gl:start_color="@color/purple"
gl:end_color="@color/blue"
gl:orientation="TOP_BOTTOM">
</net.colindodd.gradientlayout.GradientRelativeLayout>Available Layouts:
- GradientAbsoluteLayout
- GradientFrameLayout
- GradientGridLayout
- GradientLinearLayout
- GradientRelativeLayout
- GradientTableLayout
final GradientLinearLayout layout = (GradientLinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.root);
layout.setStartColor(Color.rgb(255,87,34))
.setEndColor(Color.rgb(255,193,7))
.setOrientation(GradientDrawable.Orientation.TR_BL);Or just provide a single color and the layout will generate a gradient for you:
final GradientLinearLayout layout = (GradientLinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.root);
layout.setEndColor(Color.rgb(123,31,162));Example for using with card layout
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:cardCornerRadius="15dp"
app:cardPreventCornerOverlap="true"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp">
<net.colindodd.gradientlayout.GradientRelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:minHeight="100dp"
gl:start_color="@color/gradientLightYellow"
gl:end_color="@color/gradientOrange"
gl:orientation="LEFT_RIGHT"
android:padding="10dp">
