AutoValue Usage

Important: all information in this on this page is only relevant to PaperParcel 1.x. For information on the latest version of PaperParcel, visit http://grandstaish.github.io/paperparcel/

Basic usage

Simply implement Parcelable on your AutoValue class and PaperParcel's AutoValue extension will take care of the rest, e.g.:

@AutoValue
public abstract class Example implements Parcelable {
    public abstract int test();
    public static State create(int test) {
        return new AutoValue_Example(test);
    }
}

Now your AutoValue class can be passed directly to a Bundle or Intent.

A simple example can be found in the autovalue-example module.

TypeAdapter usage

Any TypeAdapter annotated with @DefaultAdapter will be used automatically unless a more specifically scoped adapter is applied.

For class-scoped TypeAdapters, apply directly to the @AutoValue class, e.g.:

@AutoValue
@TypeAdapters(DateTypeAdapter.class)
public abstract class Example implements Parcelable {
    ...
}

For variable-scoped TypeAdapters, apply directly to the abstract property method, e.g.:

@AutoValue
public abstract class Example implements Parcelable {
    @TypeAdapters(DateTypeAdapter.class)
    public abstract Date test();
    ...
}
