Custom Activity

VideoEditor SDK supports extending from VideoEditorActivity and creating your custom activity to use with our editor.

Extending from `VideoEditorActivity`#

Here, we create our custom activity extending from VideoEditorActivity. We copy the layout from our demo repository and add a custom view to it.

Make sure to add your custom activity to the AndroidManifest.xml.

Set custom activity#

Here, we pass our custom activity class to the VideoEditorBuilder. This indicates to the SDK to use the custom activity for showing the video editor.


class CustomVideoEditorActivity : VideoEditorActivity() {

    private lateinit var imglyCustomView: ImglyCustomView

    // Override the layoutResource to specify your own layout
    override var layoutResource = R.layout.activity_custom_editor

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        imglyCustomView = findView(R.id.imgly_custom_view)
        imglyCustomView.setOnClickListener {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Banner Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
        }
    }
}
class CustomVideoEditor(private val activity: AppCompatActivity) : Example(activity) {

    override fun invoke() {
        // In this example, we do not need access to the Uri(s) after the editor is closed
        // so we pass false in the constructor
        val settingsList = VideoEditorSettingsList(false)
            // Set the source as the Uri of the video to be loaded
            .configure<LoadSettings> {
                it.source = activity.resourceUri(R.raw.skater)
            }

        // Start the video editor using VideoEditorBuilder
        // The result will be obtained in onActivityResult() corresponding to EDITOR_REQUEST_CODE
        VideoEditorBuilder(activity, CustomVideoEditorActivity::class.java)
            .setSettingsList(settingsList)
            .startActivityForResult(activity, EDITOR_REQUEST_CODE)

        // Release the SettingsList once done
        settingsList.release()
    }

    override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, intent: Intent?) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent)
        intent ?: return
        if (requestCode == EDITOR_REQUEST_CODE) {
            // Wrap the intent into an EditorSDKResult
            val result = EditorSDKResult(intent)
            when (result.resultStatus) {
                EditorSDKResult.Status.CANCELED -> showMessage("Editor cancelled")
                EditorSDKResult.Status.EXPORT_DONE -> showMessage("Result saved at ${result.resultUri}")
                else -> {
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
