Top-level functions

BackHandler

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.3.0

@Composable
fun BackHandler(enabled: Boolean = true, onBack: () -> Unit): Unit

An effect for handling presses of the system back button.

Calling this in your composable adds the given lambda to the OnBackPressedDispatcher of the LocalOnBackPressedDispatcherOwner.

If this is called by nested composables, if enabled, the inner most composable will consume the call to system back and invoke its lambda. The call will continue to propagate up until it finds an enabled BackHandler.

import androidx.activity.compose.BackHandler
import androidx.compose.material.TextField
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember

var text by remember { mutableStateOf("") }

TextField(value = text, onValueChange = { text = it })

BackHandler(text.isNotEmpty()) {
    // handle back event
}

Parameters
enabled: Boolean = true	if this BackHandler should be enabled
onBack: () -> Unit	the action invoked by pressing the system back

PredictiveBackHandler

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

@Composable
fun PredictiveBackHandler(
    enabled: Boolean = true,
    onBack: suspend (progress: Flow<BackEventCompat>) -> Unit
): Unit

An effect for handling predictive system back gestures.

Calling this in your composable adds the given lambda to the OnBackPressedDispatcher of the LocalOnBackPressedDispatcherOwner. The lambda passes in a Flow where each BackEventCompat reflects the progress of current gesture back. The lambda content should follow this structure:

PredictiveBackHandler { progress: Flow<BackEventCompat> ->
     // code for gesture back started
     try {
        progress.collect { backevent ->
             // code for progress
        }
        // code for completion
     } catch (e: CancellationException) {
        // code for cancellation
     }
}

If this is called by nested composables, if enabled, the inner most composable will consume the call to system back and invoke its lambda. The call will continue to propagate up until it finds an enabled BackHandler.

import androidx.activity.BackEventCompat
import androidx.activity.compose.BackHandler
import androidx.activity.compose.PredictiveBackHandler
import androidx.compose.material.TextField
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember

var text by remember { mutableStateOf("") }

TextField(value = text, onValueChange = { text = it })

PredictiveBackHandler(text.isNotEmpty()) { progress: Flow<BackEventCompat> ->
    callback.preparePop()
    try {
        progress.collect { backEvent -> callback.updateProgress(backEvent.progress) }
        callback.popBackStack()
    } catch (e: CancellationException) {
        callback.cancelPop()
    }
}

Parameters
enabled: Boolean = true	if this BackHandler should be enabled, true by default
onBack: suspend (progress: Flow<BackEventCompat>) -> Unit	the action invoked by back gesture

ReportDrawn

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.7.0

@Composable
fun ReportDrawn(): Unit

Calls Activity.reportFullyDrawn after this composition is completed.

The Activity used is extracted from the LocalView's context.

import androidx.activity.compose.ReportDrawn
import androidx.compose.material.Text

ReportDrawn()
Text("Hello World")

ReportDrawnAfter

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.7.0

@Composable
fun ReportDrawnAfter(block: suspend () -> Unit): Unit

Adds block to the methods that must complete prior to Activity.reportFullyDrawn being called.

The Activity used is extracted from the LocalView's context.

After Activity.reportFullyDrawn has been called, block will not be called again, even on recomposition.

import androidx.activity.compose.ReportDrawn
import androidx.activity.compose.ReportDrawnAfter
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.LazyListState
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember

val lazyListState = remember { LazyListState() }
ReportDrawnAfter { lazyListState.animateScrollToItem(10) }

ReportDrawnWhen

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.7.0

@Composable
fun ReportDrawnWhen(predicate: () -> Boolean): Unit

Adds predicate to the conditions that must be met prior to Activity.reportFullyDrawn being called.

The Activity used is extracted from the LocalView's context.

import androidx.activity.compose.ReportDrawn
import androidx.activity.compose.ReportDrawnWhen
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.fillMaxSize
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.LazyColumn
import androidx.compose.material.Text
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier

var contentComposed by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
LazyColumn(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
    items(100) {
        contentComposed = true
        Text("Hello World $it")
    }
}
ReportDrawnWhen { contentComposed }

rememberLauncherForActivityResult

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.3.0

@Composable
fun <I : Any?, O : Any?> rememberLauncherForActivityResult(
    contract: ActivityResultContract<I, O>,
    onResult: (O) -> Unit
): ManagedActivityResultLauncher<I, O>

Register a request to start an activity for result, designated by the given ActivityResultContract.

This creates a record in the registry associated with this caller, managing request code, as well as conversions to/from Intent under the hood.

This must be called unconditionally, as part of initialization path.

You should not call ActivityResultLauncher.unregister on the returned ActivityResultLauncher. Attempting to do so will result in an IllegalStateException.

import androidx.activity.compose.rememberLauncherForActivityResult
import androidx.activity.result.contract.ActivityResultContracts
import androidx.activity.result.launch
import androidx.compose.foundation.Image
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.fillMaxWidth
import androidx.compose.material.Button
import androidx.compose.material.Text
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.graphics.asImageBitmap

val result = remember { mutableStateOf<Bitmap?>(null) }
val launcher =
    rememberLauncherForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.TakePicturePreview()) {
        result.value = it
    }

Button(onClick = { launcher.launch() }) { Text(text = "Take a picture") }

result.value?.let { image ->
    Image(image.asImageBitmap(), null, modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth())
}

Parameters
contract: ActivityResultContract<I, O>	the contract, specifying conversions to/from Intents
onResult: (O) -> Unit	the callback to be called on the main thread when activity result is available

Returns
ManagedActivityResultLauncher<I, O>	the launcher that can be used to start the activity.

Extension functions

setContent

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.3.0

fun ComponentActivity.setContent(
    parent: CompositionContext? = null,
    content: @Composable () -> Unit
): Unit

Composes the given composable into the given activity. The content will become the root view of the given activity.

This is roughly equivalent to calling ComponentActivity.setContentView with a ComposeView i.e.:

setContentView(
  ComposeView(this).apply {
    setContent {
      MyComposableContent()
    }
  }
)

Parameters
parent: CompositionContext? = null	The parent composition reference to coordinate scheduling of composition updates
content: @Composable () -> Unit	A @Composable function declaring the UI contents

Top-level properties

LocalActivity

Artifact: androidx.activity:activity-compose

View Source

Added in 1.10.0-beta01

val LocalActivity: ProvidableCompositionLocal<Activity?>

Provides the android.app.Activity belonging to the current LocalContext.

Note, when possible you should always prefer using the finer grained composition locals where available. This API should be used as a fallback when the required API is only available via android.app.Activity.
