How to import .XML code style into Android Studio
Copy intellij-java-google-style.xml into the directory $HOME/Library/Preferences/IdeaIC14/codestyles/.
I am using Android Studio 1.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 and in my case I have an .AndroidStudio1.2 folder in my home directory. In this folder there is a config folder. What I did was the following:
- I created a new folder called codestyles in the config folder.
- copied my style xml (in my case named AndroidStyle.xml) into the codestyles folder (.AndroidStudio1.2/config/codestyles/AndroidStyle.xml)
- Went into File>Settings>Editor>Code Style
- Chose the AndroidStyle among the listed Schemas.
NOTE: Android Studio does not give you an option to import the xml file. And before you add the file to the codestyles folder there is NO indication that you can change the Schema to your own in any way. But after you have added the file the added schema will be shown among the other schemas.
NOTE 2: In other Operating systems this folder is located elsewhere. For more info on configuration folders see here: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/configuration
In the latest Android Studio (as of this edit, 4.1.1) you can go to Preferences -> Editor -> Code Style -> Scheme -> Settings Icon (Gear) -> Import Scheme... and import the xml there.
