Make Recycler View show rows from bottom

Question

I saw somewhere method to make RecyclerView show ViewHolders from bottom to top. Now, i can\'t find it anywhere (after half of hour going through <

Answer 1

Here is the solution in Kotlin

val llm = LinearLayoutManager(this)
llm.stackFromEnd = true     // items gravity sticks to bottom
llm.reverseLayout = false   // item list sorting (new messages start from the bottom)

rv_chat_history.layoutManager = llm

Or if you like the apply method:

recycler.apply { 
    layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this).apply { 
        stackFromEnd = true
        reverseLayout = true
    }
}
