Get drawable from other resource folder

Issue

I've a project structure like that:

The folder "coffee_types" is an Android resource folder with type drawable created in the following way:

Previously, when I was using only main drawables folder, I was using this function to get the Drawable object:

private Drawable getDrawableByName(String name) {
    return getResources().getDrawable(getResources().getIdentifier(name, "drawable", getPackageName()));
}

I was trying to change it to make it work with the "coffee_types" folder with no success.

Any help appreciated.

Solution

The folder "coffee_types" is an Android resource folder with type drawable

No, it is not. You cannot invent your own resource types.
