Android Material Design - 3 (Android RecyclerView and CardView)

Android Lollipop features two new widgets to make your life easier,   RecyclerView     and  CardView.



Download full example on Github.


RecyclerView

This widget is a container for displaying large data sets that can be scrolled very efficiently by maintaining a limited number of views. Use the RecyclerView widget when you have data collections whose elements change at runtime based on user action or network events.

The RecyclerView and CardView both are available in the Android support library, to use support library in android studio.

your app root folder -> right click -> open module setting -> select your module -> select dependence tab -> click on + sign -> Library dependence, add both library.

com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.1.1
com.android.support:cardview-v7:22.1.1

now create layout for RecycleView :


 <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"  
   xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"  
   android:layout_width="match_parent"  
   android:layout_height="match_parent"  
   android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin1"  
   android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin1"  
   android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin1"  
   android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin1"  
   tools:context=".MyActivity">  
   <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView  
     android:id="@+id/cardList"  
     android:layout_width="match_parent"  
     android:layout_height="match_parent" />  
 </RelativeLayout>  


now, in your fragment add below code (you can also use activity just add code in onCreate)


  @Override  
   public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,  
                Bundle savedInstanceState) {  
     View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_cardrecycle, container, false);  
     RecyclerView recList = (RecyclerView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.cardList);  
     recList.setHasFixedSize(true);  
     LinearLayoutManager llm = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());  
     llm.setOrientation(LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL);  
     if (listitems.size() > 0 & recList != null) {  
       recList.setAdapter(new MyAdapter(listitems));  
     }  
     recList.setLayoutManager(llm);  
     return rootView;  
   }  

Before create adapter we ll design row items of RecycleView using CardView then after we 'll integrate both together.

create layout for CardView.


 <android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

     </LinearLayout>  
   </LinearLayout>  
 </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>  


our CardView design look like..




The adapter provides access to the items in your data set, creates views for items, and replaces the content of some of the views with new data items when the original item is no longer visible.

create adapter,


 public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<ViewHolder> {  
     private ArrayList<CardViewModel> list;  
     // Provide a suitable constructor (depends on the kind of dataset)  
     public MyAdapter(ArrayList<CardViewModel> myDataset) {  
       list = myDataset;  
     }  
     // Create new views (invoked by the layout manager)  
     @Override  
     public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,  
                        int viewType) {  
       // create a new view  
       View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())  
           .inflate(R.layout.recycle_items, parent, false);  
       // set the view's size, margins, paddings and layout parameters  
       ViewHolder vh = new ViewHolder(v);  
       return vh;  
     }  
     // Replace the contents of a view (invoked by the layout manager)  
     @Override  
     public void onBindViewHolder(final ViewHolder holder, int position) {  
       // - get element from your dataset at this position  
       // - replace the contents of the view with that element  
       holder.text_card_name.setText(list.get(position).getCardName());  
       Drawable dr = getResources().getDrawable(list.get(position).getImageResourceId());  
       holder.image_card_cover.setImageDrawable(dr);  
       /*Palette.from(drawableToBitmap(dr)).generate(new Palette.PaletteAsyncListener() {  
         public void onGenerated(Palette p) {  
           // Use generated instance  
           //int titleBackColor = p.getVibrantColor(0);  
           int titleBackColor = p.getDarkVibrantColor(0);  
           //int titleBackColor = p.getVibrantSwatch();  
           ProgressDrawable titleBackDrawable;  
           if (titleBackColor != 0) {  
             titleBackDrawable = new ProgressDrawable(titleBackColor);  
           } else {  
             titleBackDrawable = new ProgressDrawable(getThemePrimaryColor());  
           }  
           //titleBackDrawable.setMax(holder.text_card_name.getHeight());  
           //titleBackDrawable.setProgress(holder.text_card_name.getHeight());  
           holder.text_card_name.setBackground(titleBackDrawable);  
         }  
       });*/  
     }  
     // Return the size of your dataset (invoked by the layout manager)  
     @Override  
     public int getItemCount() {  
       return list.size();  
     }  
   }  


here is ViewHolder class,



 // Provide a reference to the views for each data item  
   // Complex data items may need more than one view per item, and  
   // you provide access to all the views for a data item in a view holder  
   public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {  
     // each data item is just a string in this case  
     public TextView text_card_name;  
     public ImageView image_card_cover;  
     public ImageView image_action_like;  
     public ImageView image_action_flag;  
     public ImageView image_action_share;  
     public Toolbar maintoolbar;  
     public ViewHolder(View v) {  
       super(v);  
       text_card_name = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.text_card_name);  
       image_card_cover = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.image_card_cover);  
       image_action_like = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.image_action_like);  
       image_action_flag = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.image_action_flag);  
       image_action_share = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.image_action_share);  
       maintoolbar = (Toolbar) v.findViewById(R.id.card_toolbar);  
       maintoolbar.inflateMenu(R.menu.global);  
     }  
   }

WHAT IS NEXT?

Next time i will show you example of floating Toolbar when scroll content.

NOTE: my all example related material design is only for Android API 14 to 21 and above.

Any help and suggestions are appreciated. post comments below or you can contact me via E-mail.

ANDROID - Adding ActionBar Navigation Tabs

Android Material Design (with Design support Library) - 4

Introducing  Design Support Library  , to use Material design component in older version API - android 2.1 and above.  You’ll find a navigation drawer view, floating labels for editing text, a floating action button, snackbar, tabs, and a motion and scroll framework to tie them together. I have used my previous example, so its easy for demonstrate.  Note: Update your Android SDK support  repositories, support library if not updated i  used compileSdkVersion 'android-MNC' for Android M but you can change it to build in older API add  dependencies in build.gradle file compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.0' start with  navigation drawer , its very easy to use lets, design for drawer <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://
