Top Movie

बेशक एंड्रॉयड क्षुधा को विकसित करने के लिए अंतिम परियोजना

Final project for the course Developing Android Apps

It is just a practice, not a production version.

Project guideline

1. User Interface - Layout

Movies are displayed in the main layout via a grid of their corresponding movie poster thumbnails

UI contains an element (e.g., a spinner or settings menu) to toggle the sort order of the movies by: most popular, highest rated, and favorites

UI contains a screen for displaying the details for a selected movie

Movie Details layout contains title, release date, movie poster, vote average, and plot synopsis.

Movie Details layout contains a section for displaying trailer videos and user reviews

Tablet UI uses a Master-Detail layout implemented using fragments. The left fragment is for discovering movies. The right fragment displays the movie details view for the currently selected movie.

2. User Interface - Function

When a user changes the sort criteria (most popular, highest rated, and favorites) the main view gets updated correctly.

When a movie poster thumbnail is selected, the movie details screen is launched [Phone] or displayed in a fragment [Tablet]

When a trailer is selected, app uses an Intent to launch the trailer

In the movies detail screen, a user can tap a button(for example, a star) to mark it as a Favorite

3. Network API Implementation

In a background thread, app queries the /movie/popular or /movie/top_rated API for the sort criteria specified in the settings menu.

App requests for related videos for a selected movie via the /movie/{id}/videos endpoint in a background thread and displays those details when the user selects a movie.

App requests for user reviews for a selected movie via the /movie/{id}/reviews endpoint in a background thread and displays those details when the user selects a movie.

4. Data Persistence

App saves a “Favorited” movie to SharedPreferences or a database using the movie’s id.

When the “favorites” setting option is selected, the main view displays the entire favorites collection based on movie IDs stored in SharedPreferences or a database.

5. ContentProvider

App persists favorite movie details using a database

App displays favorite movie details (title, poster, synopsis, user rating, release date) even when offline

App uses a ContentProvider to populate favorite movie details

6. Sharing Functionality

Movie Details View includes an Action Bar item that allows the user to share the first trailer video URL from the list of trailers

App uses a share Intent to expose the external youtube URL for the trailer

Motivation

This project exist as a part of my professional portfolio about Android

In this project I have learned:

- Build and deploy apps on Android devices

- Present and use network resources in your apps

- Navigate between multiple screens in an app

- Create databases and use Content Providers to manage access to your data

- Create responsive user interfaces that work across a variety of screen sizes(Phones and tablet)

- Keep your app running efficiently with the Use of AsyncTasks and Loaders
