Remove Unused Resources potatotips #51 @konifar / Kyash Inc. 1

Do you use Android Lint to detect "unused resources"? 2

Lint "unused resources" is useless! It sometimes (or always) tells a lie... Especially in the case of using DataBinding 3

Keep clean Android project It's enough to use gradle option shrinkResources and minifyEnabled to shrink apk. But unused resources bother you to inspect code and to search le on project tree in Android Studio. It's better to remove unused resources and keep clean your project to write code easy! 4

Option 1 : extraRemovers If you want to check unsupported resource le, you can add custom remover settings in app/build.gradle . 10

Option 1 : extraRemovers Ex) text_appearance.xml which contains text_appearance's You can add custom remover like this. unusedResourcesRemover { extraRemovers = [ createXmlValueRemover("text_appearance", "style", "style", "style") ] } 11

createXmlValueRemover() Name Description leType Pre x of the le name like font , text_appearance resourceName Name to check its existence like @ string /app_name, $. string /app_name tagName Name to extract value from xml like < string name="app_name"> searchType Search regex pattern type. style , drawable , layout , default are supported. 12

Option 2 : exludeNames If you want to skip checking some le, you can add white list to excludeNames setting. resources.getIdentifier("img_welcome_${number}", "drawable", context.getPackageName()) unusedResourcesRemover { excludeNames = [ "img_welcome_", // img_welcome.*.xml is never checked. ] } 13
