RecyclerView doesn't load data in first launch using FirebaseRecyclerAdapter

Question

I\'m using FirebaseRecyclerAdapter to populate a RecyclerView in a Fragment.

Here\'s my code

mDatabase = Firebase         


        

Answer 1

In your activity.xml file, set ProgressBar property

android:visibility="invisible"

and in your populateViewHolder method, set mProgress.setVisibility(View.GONE); after setting data to TextViews & ImageView

 protected void populateViewHolder(ProductViewHolder viewHolder, Product model, int position) {
        viewHolder.name.setText(model.name);
        viewHolder.price.setText(model.price);
        Glide.with(getActivity()).load(model.imageUri).into(viewHolder.thumbnail);
        mProgress.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        Log.d("NAME", model.name);
    }

Answer 2

Remove the recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true) from your code and then check if the code works fine now.

And for dismissing the ProgressBar, its good to set the visibility to GONE.

mProgressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);

For more information you can see this Github link. I think the same issue is reported here.
