Domains

This component provides APIs for managing localized and customizable domain lists (see Domains and CustomDomains). It also contains auto-complete functionality for these lists (see DomainAutoCompleteProvider) which can be used in conjuction with our UI autocomplete component.

Usage

Setting up the dependency

Use Gradle to download the library from maven.mozilla.org (Setup repository):

implementation "org.mozilla.components:browser-domains:{latest-version}"

Domains

The Domains object is used to load the built-in localized domain lists which are shipped as part of this component. These lists are grouped by country and can be found in our repository.

// Load the domain lists for all countries in the default locale (fallback is US)
val domains = Domains.load(context)

CustomDomains

The CustomDomains object can be used to manage a custom domain list which will be stored in SharedPreferences.

// Load the custom domain list
val domains = CustomDomains.load(context)

// Save custom domains
CustomDomains.save(context, listOf("mozilla.org", "getpocket.com"))

// Remove custom domains
CustomDomains.remove(context, listOf("nolongerexists.org"))

DomainAutoCompleteProvider

The class provides auto-complete functionality for both Domains and CustomDomains.

// Initialize the provider
val provider = DomainAutocompleteProvider()
provider.initialize(
  context,
  useShippedDomains = true,
  useCustomDomains = true,
  loadDomainsFromDisk = true
)

Note that when loadDomainsFromDisk is set to true there is no need to manually call load on either Domains or CustomDomains.

// Autocomplete domain lists
val result = provider.autocomplete("moz")

The result will contain the autocompleted text (result.text), the URL (result.url), and the source of the match (result.source), which is either DEFAULT_LIST if a result was found in the shipped domain list or CUSTOM_LIST otherwise. The custom domain list takes precendece over the built-in shipped domain list and the API will only return the first match.
