An overview of the

Nowadays development is increasingly pursuing efficiency and rhythm, saving time to do more things, in addition to the development of technical packaging, development tools use skills are also very important, today based on their own experience to introduce you to the Rapid development of Android Studio.

Postfix completion

Postfix Completion is a long-established feature of IntelliJ IDEA that allows you to implement another expression you want based on the expression you’ve entered and the suffix you’ve added. For example, adding the suffix if after a Boolean expression is an if statement. Introduction to common suffixes

Here are some suffixes that I find more common in my work.

• cast
  
  When a variable needs to be cast, how often do you go back multiple times to the name of the variable and type it in parentheses? Now you just need.cast to type it in.
  
  
  
  
• If You have a better option for the if statement,.if
  
  
  
  
• Elseelse is if inverse, that’s how fast it is
  
  
  
  
• Let’s say your code is long, and suddenly at 1000 lines you have to assign a value to a variable and declare it as a global variable. You don’t want to go back and redeclare it. With Field, you can be anywhere.
  
  
  
  
• Fori simple fast for loop, just like that
  
  
  
  
• Forfor loop type 2, enhanced for loop (same effect with.iter)
  
  
  
  
• Forrfor loop type 3, reverse for loop. Forr
  
  
  
  
• Null Fast nulls
  
  
  
  
• Nn /notnull quickly determines that it is notnull. Nn, which is the same as
  
  
  
  
• Switch. Switch generates switch statements directly from objects of type such as string enumeration
  
  
  
  
• Inst/instantsOF Fast instanOF judgment and type conversion
  
  
  
  
• Var quickly generates variables for an expression
  
  
  
  
• Par quickly adds parentheses to an expression
  
  
  
  
• Log Indicates the fast log. Log
  
  
  
  
• Quick toast, the content you want to output
  
  
  
  

  In addition to the above suffixes, Android Studio has a number of other suffixes that I don’t think are very commonly used, so I won’t mention them. You can open setting-editor-general-Postfix Completion to see more of them. Below is a picture of Postfix Completion

  
  
  
  

Live Templates

Lets you insert frequently used or custom code structures to quickly, efficiently, and accurately build into your source code files. You can check Live Templates directly under the Editor by opening the Settings/Preferences dialog

Live Templates

As you can see from the image above, Android Studio already provides a number of templates. Here’s a quick look at Live Templates with one of the Templates provided by the system.

Let’s start with a picture

Add your own code template

In the figure above, Android is the name of a group under which the system provides many templates. We can click + in the upper right corner to add our own group or the Abbreviation of the template. After defining the Abbreviation, we can directly enter the Abbreviation to get the specific content of the template. Description is prompted by an accompanying Description. Tempplate text is the specific content, which can be defined by variable. The template in the figure above defines two variables, name and value.

You can Edit variables through the Edit Variables button on the right. Click it and the following dialog box will pop up

As you can see, name specifies the default value name. Value is a random number up to 1000. There are a lot of details about editing variables that I won’t go into here for space reasons, but I’ll write a blog post that covers the various features of Live Templelates in detail. Continuing with the first template, there is a change button in the lower left corner that you can click to specify the scope of the template. That’s the basic introduction. Look at the effect

There are a lot of Templates available and most of them are useful, so I’m not going to go through them all, but you can look at Live Templates and find out what works for you. You might not get used to it at first, but as you go, you get faster and faster. Once I learned about Live Templates, I found that I often wrote onClick when I was using ButterKnife, but it was the same code every time, so I was able to customize a template, as shown below:

Customizes a group called custom, and defines a template abbreviated onclick under this group. The template is a butterknife annotated click method and declares variable ids. Click Edit Variables as shown below

Specifies Expression to completeSmart(), indicating that the variable will be called intelligently (the cursor will appear at the variable position)

The specific effects are as follows:

The resource ID of the activity is assigned arbitrarily for convenience.

• If I’m writing code and I’ve been writing for half an hour, I realize that I’m writing a piece of code that I’ve written several times and will probably write again. Should we copy it and then go to Setting and go to Live Templates and add it? You could have done better! Select your code, go to “Tools” ->Save as Live Templates “and Save it by specifying abbreviations and other parameters. Or go to KeyMap, enter live Template, and go to Save as Live Templates. CMD + Shift +s = CMD +shift+s

  Ps: because I have set before shortcuts, thought have default shortcut, want to have a look at the default shortcut keys to write it down, so point under the reset, found that this function does not provide a default shortcuts, then came the most tragic, found that I don’t have a point after reset the apply nima actually takes effect, all the shortcuts I modified all didn’t pull.

• Tip 2: What do you do when you want to use a template, but forget its abbreviation? Quick CMD + J, Windows, I don’t know, you’ll see insert Live Templates when you set up tip 1, and you’ll see the shortcuts. This feature prompts all the templates that are appropriate for the current scenario.

  Of course there is a lot to know about Live Templates, such as the number of expressions used to define variables and what they stand for, but that is not the focus of this article, so I won’t go into it.

shortcuts

The keyboard shortcuts provided by Android Studio are very powerful, and I feel that as long as you are familiar with them, you can throw the mouse away from the moment you open Android Studio… Individuals often use shortcuts is introduced first to a wave of commonly used function shortcut effect demo, I didn’t figure is not subject to the ah (due to many here only do some demo), ps: the shortcuts here is based on the as own shortcuts type, if you choose the other shortcuts type (like eclipse), you only need to open the Settings, keymap, Enter the filter criteria to find the corresponding function to view the shortcut keys. The following format is Description/Windows or Linux shortcut keys/Mac shortcut keys

The picture

• Find Action (F3/Command + G)

• Find next (F3/Command + G

• Find Previous Finds the previous one

  
  
  
  

• Find class (Control + N/Command + O) opens class files directly through the class name filter, with this basic I rarely use the mouse to Find class files.

  
  
  
  

• Duplicate current line or Selection (Control + D/Command + D) quickly generates a copy of a single or selected row

  
  
  
  

• Go to Implementations (Control + Alt + B/Command + Alt + B) finds the implementation class of the current interface, or the implementation method of the interface method, which is most commonly used in MVP mode

  
  
  
  

• Extract method(Control + Alt + M/Command + Option + M) Extract method(Control + Alt + M/Command + Option + M) Extract method(Control + Alt + M/Command + Option + M) Extract method(Control + Alt + M/Command + Option + M) Extract Method (Control + Alt + M/Command + M)

  
  
  
  

• Extract variable(Control + Alt + V/Command + Option + V) generates temporary variables for selected expressions and prompts for unified replacement if multiple places are present.

• Extract Field (Control + Alt + F/Command + Option + F) generates global variables for selected expressions and prompts for unified replacement if there are more than one place.

  
  
  
  

• Next highlighted error(F2 / F2) you must look for an error in a very long code file, which is very troublesome, with this function, the cursor moves directly to the wrong place.

  
  
  
  

  There is not enough space for this, other system shortcuts I have arranged in the form of a table, many functions you need to try to find its power.

Default system shortcut keys

Ps: This list is the system’s default shortcut keys. If you select Eclipse or other shortcut keys, you need to find the corresponding description to view or modify.

extension

• We can achieve powerful functions with a few simple keys, but sometimes the shortcuts provided by many systems may conflict with those of your own system, or some powerful functions as does not provide you with shortcut keys. This is where customization (modification or addition) of shortcut keys is involved. For example, the finding and highlighting error code as mentioned above provides an F2 key, but on the Mac it is a function key and I want to keep it, so I changed it to Command + Shift +2

  I will not mention the shortcut key customization, we baidu there are a lot of articles.

• KeyMap lists many functions, space and energy is limited, can not be listed one by one, you have time to open Settings -> keyMap, to see the shortcut keys inside, not sure of their own press to try, you will find that the original can be so convenient.
