## Usage
**Create a Fragment**
User can create a post either on a community feed or user's own feed.
**Attachment options**
We currently support three types of attachment option when creating a post. These are:
1. `AmityPostAttachmentItem.PHOTO`
2. `AmityPostAttachmentItem.VIDEO`
3. `AmityPostAttachmentItem.FILE` .
You can optionally choose to allow these attachment options by using the method `allowPostAttchments`. By default the fragment includes all attachment options.
**Create a post on community feed**
```
//for text, image, file, video post
AmityPostCreatorFragment.newInstance()
.onCommunityFeed(community or communityId)
//optional
.allowPostAttachments(
listOf(
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.PHOTO,
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.VIDEO,
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.FILE
)
)
.build()
//for poll post
AmityPollPostCreatorFragment.newInstance()
.onCommunityFeed(community or communityId)
.build()
```
**Create a post on user's own feed**
```
//for text, image, file, video post
AmityPostCreatorFragment.newInstance()
.onMyFeed()
//optional
.allowPostAttachments(
listOf(
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.PHOTO,
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.VIDEO,
AmityPostAttachmentOptionItem.FILE
)
)
.build()
//for poll post
AmityPollPostCreatorFragment.newInstance()
