How to get selected chips from ChipGroup?

Question

I search a lot on internet but couldn\'t find the exact solution. Here is the link that i last tried from SO. Get selected Chips from a ChipGroup

I want to get selec

Answer 1

the solution I used in Kotlin with data binding

mBinding?.chipGroup?.children
            ?.toList()
            ?.filter { (it as Chip).isChecked }
            ?.forEach { //here are your selected chips as 'it' }

And here is how I got just titles

mBinding?.chipGroup?.children
            ?.toList()
            ?.filter { (it as Chip).isChecked }
            ?.joinToString(", ") { (it as Chip).text }

Answer 2

Starting with the version 1.2.0 you can use the method chipGroup.getCheckedChipIds()

List<Integer> ids = chipGroup.getCheckedChipIds();
for (Integer id:ids){
      Chip chip = chipGroup.findViewById(id);
      //....
}

OLD ANSWER with 1.1.0:

currently there isn't a direct API to get the selected chips.
However you can iterate through the children of the ChipGroup and check chip.isChecked().

   ChipGroup chipGroup = findViewById(R.id.....);
   for (int i=0; i<chipGroup.getChildCount();i++){
      Chip chip = (Chip)chipGroup.getChildAt(i);
      if (chip.isChecked()){
         //this chip is selected..... 
      }
    }

I used below mentioned method to detect the selected chips in chipGroup.

for (chipTitle in stringList) {
    val chip = Chip(chipGroup.context)
    chip.text = chipTitle
    chip.tag = chipTitle
    chip.isClickable = true
    chip.isCheckable = true
    chip.setOnCheckedChangeListener { _, isChecked ->
        if (isChecked){
            Log.e(TAG, chipTitle)
        }
    }
    chipGroup.addView(chip)
}
chipGroup.isSingleSelection = true
