}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.2.1'
    compile 'com.github.luckyandyzhang:MentionEditText:1.0.0'

MentionEditText editText = ((MentionEditText) findViewById(R.id.editText));
List<String> mentionList = editText.getMentionList(true); //get a list of mention string
editText.setMentionTextColor(Color.RED); //optional, set highlight color of mention string
editText.setPattern("@[\\u4e00-\\u9fa5\\w\\-]+"); //optional, set regularExpression
editText.setOnMentionInputListener(new MentionEditText.OnMentionInputListener() {
    @Override
    public void onMentionCharacterInput() {
        //call when '@' character is inserted into EditText
    }
});
