Show Dynamic colors on recyclerview list numberings

I want to achieve something like this:
See the image here
A list with circular shape drawable with a fill of a light variant color of the image tint color
I have tried textrdrawablelibrary but it does not give me the same. I have tried the following code too but to no avail:
public int darkenColor(int color) {
float[] hsv = new float[3];
Color.colorToHSV(color, hsv);
hsv[2] *= 0.8f; // value component
color = Color.HSVToColor(hsv);
return color;
}

public String[] mColors = {
"5E97F6",
"9CCC65",
"FF8A65",
"9E9E9E",
"9FA8DA",
"90A4AE",
"AED581",
"F6BF26",
"FFA726",
"4DD0E1",
"BA68C8",
"A1887F",
};
// all colors used by gmail application :)
light colors
// genrating random num from 0 to 11 because you can add more or less
int i1 = new Random().nextInt(11);
//genrating shape with colors
GradientDrawable draw = new GradientDrawable();
draw.setShape(GradientDrawable.OVAL);
draw.setColor(Color.parseColor ("#"+mColors[i1]));
// assigning to textview
contact_name_circle.setBackground(draw); //textview

setStrokeColor not working programmatically

I'm trying to set my color for the outline of my button, but I don't get it to work
I'm using material button and when I use
button.setStrokeColorResource(Color.parseColor(#e4dcd4))
is not working and tells me this
Expected a color resource id (R.color.) but received an RGB integer
I tried almost everything I could found about in stack, but I can't get it to set this strokeColor programmatically
Edit
Almost all setColors use #ColorInt , but this strokeColor uses #ColorRes, which is not working for me, also there is setStrokeColor
public void setStrokeColor(#Nullable ColorStateList strokeColor) {
if (isUsingOriginalBackground()) {
materialButtonHelper.setStrokeColor(strokeColor);
}
}
But I can't get it to work either.

It worked like this
val colorInt = Color.parseColor("#e4dcd4")
val csl = ColorStateList.valueOf(colorInt)
my_button.strokeColor = csl

You might try this
button.setStrokeColor(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.your_color_xml));
Other way you can do is
ShapeDrawable gradientDrawable = (ShapeDrawable)button.getBackground();
gradientDrawable.setStroke(2, your_color);
Also as #Gabriele said you can get an int as a color as :
//From RGB
int colorRGB = Color.rgb(255,0,0);
//From HEX String
int colorHEX = Color.parseColor("#FF11AA");

You have to set the width of the stroke because the default value is 0.
<Button
app:strokeWidth="2dp"
../>
button.strokeColor = ColorStateList.valueOf(Color.parseColor("#e4dcd4"))
or
// if color define in color.xml
button.strokeColor = ColorStateList.valueOf(ContextCompat.getColor(this, R.color.yourColorCOde))
// if you have different state and you want to set programmatically then do as :-
var states = arrayOf(
intArrayOf(R.attr.state_enabled),
intArrayOf(-R.attr.state_enabled),
intArrayOf(-R.attr.state_checked),
intArrayOf(R.attr.state_pressed)
)
// Color list define respect of state
var colors = intArrayOf(
Color.BLACK,
Color.RED,
Color.GREEN,
Color.BLUE
)
// Set stroke color
button.strokeColor = ColorStateList(states, colors)

drawable design 3 corners with one same color and else 1 corner with other color

Colour Code : e32b0f, d03559, I want to design its background drawable please help me

Try,
int colors[] = { 0xff255779, 0xfcc6c0cd };
GradientDrawable gradientDrawable = new GradientDrawable(
GradientDrawable.Orientation.TOP_BOTTOM, colors);
view.setBackgroundDrawable(gradientDrawable);
1. choose color and add color hex code in colors array.
2. GradientDrawable using and set orientation properties.[ex. GradientDrawable.Orientation.TOP_BOTTOM]
3. set view background [ex. Linearlayout.setBackgroundDrawable(gradientDrawable);]

Randomly Displaying Background Color in Android App

I am currently working on an android APP and I have a list of predefined color in my colors.xml.
Now what I want to achieve is that I want to give the user the opportunity of selecting a color and from the color the user select, I want to display various color (randomly) in the background that matches the global color the user selects, such that those colors will be changing at interval. These colors that will be displayed randomly are already defined in my colors.xml file
Any Guidance or a lead sample on this requirement will be invaluable.
Thank you in advance

private int[] colors = {Color.RED, Color.YELLOW, Color.BLUE, Color.CYAN, Color.GREEN};
Random ranndom = new Random();
int ranndomColor = ranndom.nextInt(5);
whatever.setBackground(colors[ranndomColor]);
or get the colors from "colors.xml:
int color1 = getResources().getColor(R.color.color1);
int color2 = getResources().getColor(R.color.color2);
int color3 = getResources().getColor(R.color.color3);
int color4 = getResources().getColor(R.color.color4);
int color5 = getResources().getColor(R.color.color5);
private int[] colors = {color1, color2, color3, color4, color5};
Random ranndom = new Random();
int ranndomColor = ranndom.nextInt(5);
whatever.setBackground(colors[ranndomColor]);

Getting RGB at Runtime from color

I want to extract the RGB value from color
My color is declared in xml as
<color name="color_primary">#009688</color>
Now I want the RGB value of this in my Activity at runtime.
How to convert color_primary in Color object ?
Any help? Thanks in advance.

Your color is an int. You can use
int color = getResources().getColor(R.color.color_primary);
in onCreate of your Activity. If you need the RGB components of your color, you can use the Color class:
int red = Color.red(color);
int green = Color.green(color);
int blue = Color.blue(color);
