Android PagedList updates

Question

My question is how to update item in PagedList?

In my case, there are ListActivity and DetailsActivity. List activity is using Paging component to get posts from network

Answer 1

I have implemented the pagination in recyclerview you can check the example on git hub https://github.com/kunal-mahajan/GitRepositoryList You wont reload the data again and again by using following code.

Step 1: Create class DynamicLoadingAdapter

    import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.support.annotation.NonNull;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView.ViewHolder;
import android.util.TypedValue;
import android.view.Gravity;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;
import android.widget.ProgressBar;
import android.widget.TextView;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;


public abstract class DynamicLoadingAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {

    private static final int ITEM = 3;
    private static final int LOADING = 4;
    private static final int NO_DATA = 5;

    protected List records;
    protected Context context;
    private LoadingObj loadingObj = new LoadingObj();
    private NoDataAvailableObj noDataAvailableObj = new NoDataAvailableObj();

    public DynamicLoadingAdapter(Context context) {
        this.context = context;
        records = new ArrayList<>();
        records.add(loadingObj);
    }

    private int getIntToDP(int px) {
        return Math.round(TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, px, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics()));
    }

    @Override
    public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        ViewHolder viewHolder = null;
        LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext());
        switch (viewType) {
            case ITEM:
                viewHolder = getViewHolder(parent, inflater);
                break;
            case LOADING:
                viewHolder = new DynamicLoadingAdapter.LoadingVH(getProgressBar());
                break;
            case NO_DATA:
                viewHolder = new ViewHolder(getNoDataTextView()) {
                };
        }
        return viewHolder;
    }

    protected abstract String getEmptyText();

    @NonNull
    protected abstract ViewHolder getViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, LayoutInflater inflater);

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        if (getItemViewType(position) == ITEM)
            setValuesOnBind(holder, position);
    }

    protected abstract void setValuesOnBind(ViewHolder holder, int position);

    @Override
    public int getItemViewType(int position) {
        Object o = records.get(position);
        if (o instanceof LoadingObj)
            return LOADING;

        if (o instanceof NoDataAvailableObj)
            return NO_DATA;

        return ITEM;
    }

    void setLoadingFinished() {
        records.remove(records.size() - 1);
        if (records.size() == 0) records.add(new NoDataAvailableObj());
        notifyDataSetChanged();
    }

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

    int getItemLoadedCount() {
        int l = records.size();
        if (records.get(records.size() - 1).equals(loadingObj))
            l--;

        if (l > 0 && records.get(0).equals(noDataAvailableObj))
            l--;

        return l;
    }

    void add(List list) {
        for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
            records.add(records.size() - 1, list.get(i));
        }

        notifyDataSetChanged();
    }

    private ProgressBar getProgressBar() {
        ProgressBar progressBar = new ProgressBar(context);
        int h = getIntToDP(30);
        int w = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
        LinearLayout.LayoutParams progressParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(w, h);
        int margin = getIntToDP(5);
        progressParams.setMargins(margin, margin, margin, margin);
        progressParams.gravity = Gravity.CENTER;
        progressBar.setLayoutParams(progressParams);
        return progressBar;
    }

    public TextView getNoDataTextView() {
        LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        TextView textView = new TextView(context);
        textView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
        textView.setText(getEmptyText());
        textView.setTypeface(null, Typeface.ITALIC);
        params.setMargins(0, getIntToDP(7), 0, getIntToDP(7));
        textView.setLayoutParams(params);
        return textView;
    }

    private static class LoadingObj {
    }

    private class LoadingVH extends ViewHolder {
        public LoadingVH(View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
        }
    }

    private class NoDataAvailableObj {
    }
}

Step 2: Create class: DynamicLoadingListHelper

import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v7.widget.DefaultItemAnimator;
import android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;
import android.widget.ProgressBar;

import java.util.List;

public abstract class DynamicLoadingListHelper {

    private final DynamicLoadingAdapter adapter;
    private final Context context;
    private LinearLayout containerLayout;
    private RecyclerView rv;
    private int totalRecords = -1;
    private int pageCount = 0;

    public DynamicLoadingListHelper(Context context, LinearLayout containerLayout, DynamicLoadingAdapter adapter) {
        this.adapter = adapter;
        this.context = context;
        this.containerLayout = containerLayout;
        init();
    }

    public void init() {
        final LinearLayoutManager lm = new LinearLayoutManager(context, LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL, false);
        rv = new RecyclerView(context);
        rv.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
        containerLayout.addView(rv);
        rv.setLayoutManager(lm);
        rv.setItemAnimator(new DefaultItemAnimator());
        rv.setAdapter(adapter);

        rv.addOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {
            int lastLoadCountReq = Integer.MIN_VALUE;

            @Override
            public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
                super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
                if (lm.findLastVisibleItemPosition() == adapter.getItemCount() - 1 && newState == RecyclerView.SCROLL_STATE_IDLE && adapter.getItemLoadedCount() < totalRecords && adapter.getItemLoadedCount() > lastLoadCountReq) {
                    lastLoadCountReq = adapter.getItemLoadedCount();
                    loadNextPage();
                }
            }
        });

        rv.addOnChildAttachStateChangeListener(new RecyclerView.OnChildAttachStateChangeListener() {
            LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = (LinearLayoutManager) rv.getLayoutManager();

            @Override
            public void onChildViewAttachedToWindow(View view) {

                boolean isScrolled = layoutManager.findViewByPosition(0) != layoutManager.findViewByPosition(layoutManager.findFirstCompletelyVisibleItemPosition());
                if (isScrolled)
                    return;

                if (!(view instanceof ProgressBar))
                    return;

                if (isRecyclerScrollable()) {
                    loadNextPage();
                }
            }

            public void onChildViewDetachedFromWindow(View view) {

            }
        });

        loadNextPage();
    }

    private void loadNextPage() {
        pageCount++;
        loadData(pageCount);
    }

    private boolean isRecyclerScrollable() {
        LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = (LinearLayoutManager) rv.getLayoutManager();
        RecyclerView.Adapter adapter = rv.getAdapter();

        if (layoutManager == null || adapter == null) return false;

        return layoutManager.findLastCompletelyVisibleItemPosition() < totalRecords;
    }

    protected abstract void loadData(int offset);

    public void dataLoaded(List list, int totalPage) {

        if (totalPage <= 0) {
            adapter.setLoadingFinished();
            return;
        }

        this.totalRecords = totalPage;
        adapter.add(list);
        if (adapter.getItemLoadedCount() >= totalPage)
            adapter.setLoadingFinished();
    }
}

Step 3: Create your own PaginationAdaptor eg:

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.support.annotation.NonNull;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;
import android.widget.TextView;

import com.gitfeaturelisting.R;
import com.gitfeaturelisting.component.DynamicLoadingAdapter;
import com.gitfeaturelisting.pojo.Item;
import com.squareup.picasso.Picasso;

/**

public class RepoPaginationAdaptor extends DynamicLoadingAdapter {

    public RepoPaginationAdaptor(Context applicationContext) {
        super(applicationContext);
    }

    @Override
    protected String getEmptyText() {
        return "No repo available";
    }


    @NonNull
    @Override
    protected RecyclerView.ViewHolder getViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, LayoutInflater inflater) {
        View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_repo_info_short, parent, false);
        final RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder = new RepoInfoVH(v);
        return viewHolder;
    }

    @Override
    protected void setValuesOnBind(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        Item r = (Item) records.get(position);
        RepoInfoVH rvh = (RepoInfoVH) holder;
        rvh.tvName.setText(r.getDescription());
        rvh.tvTitle.setText(r.getName());
        rvh.tvRate.setText(context.getString(R.string.updated_on) + " " + (r.getUpdatedAt()));
        Picasso.get().load(Uri.parse(r.getOwner().getAvatarUrl())).into(rvh.ivPic);
        rvh.llMain.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent i = new Intent(context, ActivityRepoDetail.class);
                Item r = (Item) records.get(rvh.getLayoutPosition());
                i.putExtra(ActivityRepoDetail.KEY_REPO_DETAIL, r);
                context.startActivity(i);
            }
        });
    }


    private class
    RepoInfoVH extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
        ImageView ivPic;
        TextView tvName;
        TextView tvTitle;
        TextView tvRate;
        LinearLayout llMain;

        public RepoInfoVH(View jobView) {
            super(jobView);
            ivPic = jobView.findViewById(R.id.layout_repo_info_short_iv_repo_pic);
            tvName = (jobView.findViewById(R.id.layout_repo_info_short_tv_name));
            tvTitle = (jobView.findViewById(R.id.layout_repo_info_short_tv_title));
            tvRate = (jobView.findViewById(R.id.layout_repo_info_short_tv_bottom));
            llMain = (jobView.findViewById(R.id.layout_repo_info_short_ll));
        }
    }
}
