SignProvider

A library that provides ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs for use with a hieroglyph renderer such as Egyptian Writer.

This library is part of the Egyptian Writer Android App.

Tip

If you want to render Hieroglyphs in Android try the Egyptian Writer Android App or these libraries:
THOTH and MAAT

Implementation with jitpack

Add this to your settings.gradle.kts at the end of repositories:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
  repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
  repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
  }
}

Then add this dependency to your build.gradle.kts file:

dependencies {
  implementation("com.github.cristmasbox:SignProvider:1.0.2")
}

Note

For the implementation for other build systems like Groovy see here

Implementation with .aar file

Download the SignProvider_versionname.aar file from this repository, create a libs folder in your project directory and paste the file there. Then add this dependency to your build.gradle.kts file:

dependencies {
  implementation(files("../libs/SignProvider_versionname.aar"))
}

Important

If you renamed the .aar file you also have to change the name in the dependencies
