How to implement endless list with RecyclerView?

Question

I would like to change ListView to RecyclerView. I want to use the onScroll of the OnScrollListener in RecyclerView to determine if a

Answer 1

Here my solution using AsyncListUtil, in the web says: Note that this class uses a single thread to load the data, so it suitable to load data from secondary storage such as disk, but not from network. but i am using odata to read the data and work fine. I miss in my example data entities and network methods. I include only the example adapter.

public class AsyncPlatoAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {

    private final AsyncPlatoListUtil mAsyncListUtil;
    private final MainActivity mActivity;
    private final RecyclerView mRecyclerView;
    private final String mFilter;
    private final String mOrderby;
    private final String mExpand;

    public AsyncPlatoAdapter(String filter, String orderby, String expand, RecyclerView recyclerView, MainActivity activity) {
        mFilter = filter;
        mOrderby = orderby;
        mExpand = expand;
        mRecyclerView = recyclerView;
        mActivity = activity;
        mAsyncListUtil = new AsyncPlatoListUtil();

    }

    @Override
    public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).
                inflate(R.layout.plato_cardview, parent, false);

        // Create a ViewHolder to find and hold these view references, and
        // register OnClick with the view holder:
        return new PlatoViewHolderAsync(itemView, this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        final Plato item = mAsyncListUtil.getItem(position);
        PlatoViewHolderAsync vh = (PlatoViewHolderAsync) holder;
        if (item != null) {
            Integer imagen_id = item.Imagen_Id.get();
            vh.getBinding().setVariable(BR.plato, item);
            vh.getBinding().executePendingBindings();
            vh.getImage().setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            vh.getProgress().setVisibility(View.GONE);
            String cacheName = null;
            String urlString = null;
            if (imagen_id != null) {
                cacheName = String.format("imagenes/imagen/%d", imagen_id);
                urlString = String.format("%s/menusapi/%s", MainActivity.ROOTPATH, cacheName);
            }
            ImageHelper.downloadBitmap(mActivity, vh.getImage(), vh.getProgress(), urlString, cacheName, position);
        } else {
            vh.getBinding().setVariable(BR.plato, item);
            vh.getBinding().executePendingBindings();
            //show progress while loading.
            vh.getImage().setVisibility(View.GONE);
            vh.getProgress().setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        }
    }

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

    public class AsyncPlatoListUtil extends AsyncListUtil {
        /**
         * Creates an AsyncListUtil.
         */
        public AsyncPlatoListUtil() {
            super(Plato.class, //my data class
                    10, //page size
                    new DataCallback() {

                            //get count calling ../$count ... odata endpoint
                            return countPlatos(mFilter, mOrderby, mExpand, mActivity);
                        }

                        @Override
                        public void fillData(Plato[] data, int startPosition, int itemCount) {
                            //get items from odata endpoint using $skip and $top
                            Platos p = loadPlatos(mFilter, mOrderby, mExpand, startPosition, itemCount, mActivity);
                            for (int i = 0; i < Math.min(itemCount, p.value.size()); i++) {
                                data[i] = p.value.get(i);
                            }

                        }

                            outRange[0] = layoutManager.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
                            outRange[1] = layoutManager.findLastVisibleItemPosition();
                        }

                            mRecyclerView.getAdapter().notifyDataSetChanged();
                        }

                            mRecyclerView.getAdapter().notifyItemChanged(position);
                        }
