Recyclerview Sample

Android RecyclerView is more advanced version of ListView with improved performance and other benefits. Using RecyclerView and CardView together, both lists and grids can be created very easily. Here is the complete information about RecyclerView and other examples.

In this tutorial we are going to learn how to render a simple RecyclerView with a custom layout. We’ll also learn writing a adapter class, adding list divider and row click listener. 

Before you start, make sure that you updated your Android Studio to latest version. Currently my Android Studio is updated to Android Studio 3.0.


1. Creating New Project 

1. In Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all the details required to create a new project. When it prompts to select a default activity, select Blank Activity and proceed.

2. Open build.gradle and add recycler view dependency. com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:26.1.0 and rebuild the project.
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
    compileSdkVersion 26    buildToolsVersion "26.0.2"    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.xxxxx.projectname"        minSdkVersion 15        targetSdkVersion 26        versionCode 1        versionName "1.0"        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'    })
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.2'    compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'    compile 'com.android.support:design:26.0.2'    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:26.0.2'    compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.1.0'    compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.1.0'    compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.7.0'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'}

2. Writing the Adapter Class
public class RecyclerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {

    Context context;
    RecyclerView recycleview;
    List<BookModel> bookList;

    public RecyclerAdapter(MainActivity mContext, List<BookModel> mbookList, RecyclerView mrecyclerView) {
        context = mContext;
        recycleview = mrecyclerView;
        bookList = mbookList;
    }

    @Override    public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        ViewHolder vh;
        View itemLayoutView = null;
        itemLayoutView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
                .inflate(R.layout.book_item, parent, false);
        vh = new ViewHolder(itemLayoutView);

        return vh;
    }

    @Override    public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        try{
            if (holder instanceof ViewHolder) {
                final BookModel item = bookList.get(position);

                ((ViewHolder) holder).txtTitle.setText(item.getTitle());
                ((ViewHolder) holder).txtBy.setText("By : " + item.getBy());
                ((ViewHolder) holder).txtLocation.setText("Location : " +item.getLocation()+","+item.getCountry());

                ((ViewHolder) holder).cardView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override                    public void onClick(View view) {

                        final String strRef = item.getUrl();

                        StringTokenizer tokens = new StringTokenizer(strRef, "?");
                        final String strfirst = tokens.nextToken();
                        String strsecond = tokens.nextToken();

                        AlertDialog.Builder builder1 = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
                        builder1.setTitle(item.getTitle());
                        builder1.setMessage(context.getResources().getString(R.string.for_more));
                        builder1.setCancelable(true);
                        builder1.setNegativeButton("stop here!", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                                dialog.cancel();
                            }
                        });

                        builder1.setPositiveButton("continue", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                                Uri uri = Uri.parse(Constant.base_url + strfirst);
                                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
                                context.startActivity(intent);
                                dialog.cancel();
                            }
                        });

                        AlertDialog alert11 = builder1.create();
                        alert11.show();
                    }
                });
            }

        }catch (NullPointerException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    @Override    public int getItemCount() {
        return bookList.size();
    }

    public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

        private TextView txtTitle, txtBy, txtLocation;
        private CardView cardView;

        public ViewHolder(View itemLayoutView) {
            super(itemLayoutView);

            txtTitle = (TextView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.id_title);
            txtBy = (TextView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.id_author);
            txtLocation = (TextView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.id_location);
            cardView = (CardView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.card_view);
        }
    }
}
3. Model class
