Badge for "special" repos

[janheinrichmerker]

Would be nice to use some sort of badge to identify forked/mirrored/private repos in the repo list. Maybe this could be achieved by using a separate TextView with a border (with rounded corners) around it or even using a custom Spannable to use the "badge" in the same TextView

Yup, this would be great, i'll see what I could do about it.

After a bit of investigation I think an improved version of this Stackoverflow question could work:

public class RoundedBorderSpan extends ReplacementSpan {

    private static final int BORDER_WIDTH = 1; // in dp
    private static final int CORNER_RADIUS = 2; // in dp
    private static final int PADDING_X = 8; // in dp

    private int   borderColor;
    private int   textColor;

    public RoundedBorderSpan(int borderColor, int textColor) {
        tgis.borderColor = borderColor;
        this.textColor = textColor;
    }

    @Override
    public int getSize(Paint paint, CharSequence text, int start, int end, Paint.FontMetricsInt fm) {
        return (int) (PADDING_X + paint.measureText(text.subSequence(start, end).toString()) + PADDING_X);
    }

    @Override
    public void draw(Canvas canvas, CharSequence text, int start, int end, float x, int top, int y, int bottom, Paint paint) {
        float width = paint.measureText(text.subSequence(start, end).toString());
        RectF rect = new RectF(x, top, x + width + 2 * PADDING_X, bottom);
        paint.setColor(borderColor);
        paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
        paint.setStrokeWidth(BORDER_SIZE);
        canvas.drawRoundRect(rect, CORNER_RADIUS, CORNER_RADIUS, paint);
        paint.setColor(textColor);
        paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL);
        canvas.drawText(text, start, end, x + PADDING_X, y, paint);
    }
}

Not sure if that'll work but you get the idea.

(One known issue with this is that the styling will break if the text in the span contains a line break. That should never happen anyway because the badges would be the first "words" displayed in the TextView)
