}

Initialization of Aviasales SDK

Before any interaction with Aviasales SDK or Aviasales Template you should initialize it

  		AviasalesSDK.getInstance().init(this, new IdentificationData(TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_MARKER, TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_TOKEN)); 

Change TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_MARKER and TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_TOKEN to your marker and token params. You can get them at Travelpayouts.com.

Example of adding Aviasales Template to your project

Add AviasalesFragment to your activity

Add to main activity layout activity_main.xml the FrameLayout for fragments

 	<FrameLayout
		android:id="@+id/fragment_place"
		android:layout_width="match_parent"
		android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

Add fragment to MainActivity

  public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
  	//Replace these variables on your TravelPayouts marker and token
  	private final static String TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_MARKER = "your_travel_payouts_marker";
	private final static String TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_TOKEN = "your_travel_payouts_token";
  	private AviasalesFragment aviasalesFragment;
    ...
  
  	@Override
  	protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
   		// Initialization of AviasalesSDK. 
		AviasalesSDK.getInstance().init(this, new IdentificationData(TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_MARKER, TRAVEL_PAYOUTS_TOKEN));
  		setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
     
  		initFragment();
 	}
      ...
  
  	private void initFragment() {
  		FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
  
  		aviasalesFragment = (AviasalesFragment) fm.findFragmentByTag(AviasalesFragment.TAG); // finding fragment by tag
  
  
  		if (aviasalesFragment == null) { 
  			aviasalesFragment = (AviasalesFragment) AviasalesFragment.newInstance();
  		}
  
  		FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fm.beginTransaction(); // adding fragment to fragment manager
  		fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_place, aviasalesFragment, AviasalesFragment.TAG);
  		fragmentTransaction.commit();
  	}
}

Specify permissions

Don't forget to specify permissions INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE by adding <uses-permission> elements as children of the <manifest> element.

	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>

Adding onBackPressed

For proper back navigation between aviasales child fragments add fragment onBackPressed inside of activity onBackPressed

	@Override
	public void onBackPressed() {

    ...
		if (!aviasalesFragment.onBackPressed()) {
			super.onBackPressed();
		}
		...
		
	}

Customization

For proper customization of Aviasales Template use AviasalesTemplateTheme or extend your theme from it. For example, in AndroidManifest.xml specify your theme

    <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            ...

and in styles.xml extend your theme from AviasalesTemplateTheme

	<style name="AppTheme" parent="AviasalesTemplateTheme">
            ...
	</style>

To change colors of your app override colorAsPrimary, colorAsPrimaryDark and colorAviasalesMain in colors.xml. This is main Aviasales Template colors

    <color name="colorAsPrimary">#3F51B5</color>
    <color name="colorAsPrimaryDark">#3F51B5</color>
    <color name="colorAviasalesMain">#3F51B5</color>

Also you can change background and price tag colors

	<color name="aviasales_results_background">@color/grey_background</color>
	<color name="aviasales_search_form_background">@color/white</color>
	<color name="aviasales_filters_background">@color/white</color>

	<color name="aviasales_select_airport_background">@color/white</color>
	<color name="aviasales_ticket_background">@color/grey_background</color>

	<color name="aviasales_results_card_color">@color/white</color>
