How to create RecyclerView with multiple view types
From Create dynamic lists with RecyclerView:
When we create a RecyclerView.Adapter we have to specify ViewHolder that will bind with the adapter.
public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.ViewHolder> {
private String[] mDataset;
public MyAdapter(String[] myDataset) {
mDataset = myDataset;
}
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView mTextView;
public ViewHolder(TextView v) {
super(v);
mTextView = v;
}
}
@Override
public MyAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.some_layout, parent, false);
//findViewById...
ViewHolder vh = new ViewHolder(v);
return vh;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
holder.mTextView.setText(mDataset[position]);
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mDataset.length;
}
}
Is it possible to create RecyclerView with multiple view types?
Yes, it's possible. Just implement getItemViewType(), and take care of the viewType parameter in onCreateViewHolder().
So you do something like:
public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {
class ViewHolder0 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
...
public ViewHolder0(View itemView){
...
}
}
class ViewHolder2 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
...
public ViewHolder2(View itemView){
...
}
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
// Just as an example, return 0 or 2 depending on position
// Note that unlike in ListView adapters, types don't have to be contiguous
return position % 2 * 2;
}
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
switch (viewType) {
case 0: return new ViewHolder0(...);
case 2: return new ViewHolder2(...);
...
}
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, final int position) {
switch (holder.getItemViewType()) {
case 0:
ViewHolder0 viewHolder0 = (ViewHolder0)holder;
...
break;
case 2:
ViewHolder2 viewHolder2 = (ViewHolder2)holder;
...
break;
}
}
}
If the layouts for view types are only a few and binding logics are simple, follow Anton's solution. But the code will be messy if you need to manage the complex layouts and binding logics.
I believe the following solution will be useful for someone who need to handle complex view types.
Base DataBinder class
abstract public class DataBinder<T extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {
private DataBindAdapter mDataBindAdapter;
public DataBinder(DataBindAdapter dataBindAdapter) {
mDataBindAdapter = dataBindAdapter;
}
abstract public T newViewHolder(ViewGroup parent);
abstract public void bindViewHolder(T holder, int position);
abstract public int getItemCount();
......
}
The functions needed to define in this class are pretty much same as the adapter class when creating the single view type.
For each view type, create the class by extending this DataBinder.
Sample DataBinder class
public class Sample1Binder extends DataBinder<Sample1Binder.ViewHolder> {
private List<String> mDataSet = new ArrayList();
public Sample1Binder(DataBindAdapter dataBindAdapter) {
super(dataBindAdapter);
}
@Override
public ViewHolder newViewHolder(ViewGroup parent) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(
R.layout.layout_sample1, parent, false);
return new ViewHolder(view);
}
@Override
public void bindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
String title = mDataSet.get(position);
holder.mTitleText.setText(title);
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mDataSet.size();
}
public void setDataSet(List<String> dataSet) {
mDataSet.addAll(dataSet);
}
static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView mTitleText;
public ViewHolder(View view) {
super(view);
mTitleText = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.title_type1);
}
}
}
In order to manage DataBinder classes, create an adapter class.
Base DataBindAdapter class
abstract public class DataBindAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
return getDataBinder(viewType).newViewHolder(parent);
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
int binderPosition = getBinderPosition(position);
getDataBinder(viewHolder.getItemViewType()).bindViewHolder(viewHolder, binderPosition);
}
@Override
public abstract int getItemCount();
@Override
public abstract int getItemViewType(int position);
public abstract <T extends DataBinder> T getDataBinder(int viewType);
public abstract int getPosition(DataBinder binder, int binderPosition);
public abstract int getBinderPosition(int position);
......
}
Create the class by extending this base class, and then instantiate DataBinder classes and override abstract methods
getItemCount Return the total item count of DataBinders getItemViewType Define the mapping logic between the adapter position and view type. getDataBinder Return the DataBinder instance based on the view type getPosition Define convert logic to the adapter position from the position in the specified DataBinder getBinderPosition Define convert logic to the position in the DataBinder from the adapter position
I left a more detailed solution and samples on GitHub, so please refer to RecyclerView-MultipleViewTypeAdapter if you need.
public class DataBinder<T extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder> can someone tell me what <T someClass> is called, so I can google if I get the term . Also when I say abstract public class DataBinder<T extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder> does that mean that this class is of type ViewHolder, so in result every class that extends this class will be of typeviewHolder is that the idea?
The below is not pseudocode. I have tested it and it has worked for me.
I wanted to create a headerview in my recyclerview and then display a list of pictures below the header which the user can click on.
I used a few switches in my code and don't know if that is the most efficient way to do this, so feel free to give your comments:
public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
//These are the general elements in the RecyclerView
public TextView place;
public ImageView pics;
//This is the Header on the Recycler (viewType = 0)
public TextView name, description;
//This constructor would switch what to findViewBy according to the type of viewType
public ViewHolder(View v, int viewType) {
super(v);
if (viewType == 0) {
name = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.name);
decsription = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.description);
} else if (viewType == 1) {
place = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.place);
pics = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.pics);
}
}
}
@Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,
int viewType)
{
View v;
ViewHolder vh;
// create a new view
switch (viewType) {
case 0: //This would be the header view in my Recycler
v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
.inflate(R.layout.recyclerview_welcome, parent, false);
vh = new ViewHolder(v,viewType);
return vh;
default: //This would be the normal list with the pictures of the places in the world
v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
.inflate(R.layout.recyclerview_picture, parent, false);
vh = new ViewHolder(v, viewType);
v.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, nextActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("ListNo",mRecyclerView.getChildPosition(v));
mContext.startActivity(intent);
}
});
return vh;
}
}
//Overridden so that I can display custom rows in the recyclerview
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
int viewType = 1; //Default is 1
if (position == 0) viewType = 0; //If zero, it will be a header view
return viewType;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
//position == 0 means it's the info header view on the Recycler
if (position == 0) {
holder.name.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(mContext,"name clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
holder.description.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(mContext,"description clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
//This means it is beyond the headerview now as it is no longer 0. For testing purposes, I'm alternating between two pics for now
} else if (position > 0) {
holder.place.setText(mDataset[position]);
if (position % 2 == 0) {
holder.pics.setImageDrawable(mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.pic1));
}
if (position % 2 == 1) {
holder.pics.setImageDrawable(mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.pic2));
}
}
}
Create a different ViewHolder for different layouts
https://i.stack.imgur.com/nvYCw.png
RecyclerView can have any number of viewholders you want, but for better readability let’s see how to create one with two ViewHolders.
It can be done in three simple steps
Override public int getItemViewType(int position) Return different ViewHolders based on the ViewType in onCreateViewHolder() method Populate View based on the itemViewType in onBindViewHolder() method
Here is a small code snippet:
public class YourListAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {
private static final int LAYOUT_ONE = 0;
private static final int LAYOUT_TWO = 1;
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position)
{
if(position==0)
return LAYOUT_ONE;
else
return LAYOUT_TWO;
}
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View view = null;
RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder = null;
if(viewType==LAYOUT_ONE)
{
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.one,parent,false);
viewHolder = new ViewHolderOne(view);
}
else
{
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.two,parent,false);
viewHolder= new ViewHolderTwo(view);
}
return viewHolder;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, final int position) {
if(holder.getItemViewType() == LAYOUT_ONE)
{
// Typecast Viewholder
// Set Viewholder properties
// Add any click listener if any
}
else {
ViewHolderOne vaultItemHolder = (ViewHolderOne) holder;
vaultItemHolder.name.setText(displayText);
vaultItemHolder.name.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
.......
}
});
}
}
//**************** VIEW HOLDER 1 ******************//
public class ViewHolderOne extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView name;
public ViewHolderOne(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
name = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.displayName);
}
}
//**************** VIEW HOLDER 2 ******************//
public class ViewHolderTwo extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public ViewHolderTwo(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
..... Do something
}
}
}
getItemViewType(int position) is the key.
In my opinion, the starting point to create this kind of recyclerView is the knowledge of this method. Since this method is optional to override, it is not visible in RecylerView class by default which in turn makes many developers (including me) wonder where to begin.
Once you know that this method exists, creating such RecyclerView would be a cakewalk.
Let's see one example to prove my point. If you want to show two layout at alternate positions do this
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position)
{
if(position%2==0) // Even position
return LAYOUT_ONE;
else // Odd position
return LAYOUT_TWO;
}
Relevant Links:
Check out the project where I have implemented this.
Yes, it is possible.
Write a generic view holder:
public abstract class GenericViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder
{
public GenericViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
}
public abstract void setDataOnView(int position);
}
then create your view holders and make them extend the GenericViewHolder. For example, this one:
public class SectionViewHolder extends GenericViewHolder{
public final View mView;
public final TextView dividerTxtV;
public SectionViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
mView = itemView;
dividerTxtV = (TextView) mView.findViewById(R.id.dividerTxtV);
}
@Override
public void setDataOnView(int position) {
try {
String title= sections.get(position);
if(title!= null)
this.dividerTxtV.setText(title);
}catch (Exception e){
new CustomError("Error!"+e.getMessage(), null, false, null, e);
}
}
}
then the RecyclerView.Adapter class will look like this one:
public class MyClassRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyClassRecyclerViewAdapter.GenericViewHolder> {
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
// depends on your problem
switch (position) {
case : return VIEW_TYPE1;
case : return VIEW_TYPE2;
...
}
}
@Override
public GenericViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View view;
if(viewType == VIEW_TYPE1){
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.layout1, parent, false);
return new SectionViewHolder(view);
}else if( viewType == VIEW_TYPE2){
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.layout2, parent, false);
return new OtherViewHolder(view);
}
// Cont. other view holders ...
return null;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(GenericViewHolder holder, int position) {
holder.setDataOnView(position);
}
Here is a complete sample to show a RecyclerView with two types, the view type decided by the object.
Class model
open class RecyclerViewItem
class SectionItem(val title: String) : RecyclerViewItem()
class ContentItem(val name: String, val number: Int) : RecyclerViewItem()
Adapter code
const val VIEW_TYPE_SECTION = 1
const val VIEW_TYPE_ITEM = 2
class UserAdapter : RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>() {
var data = listOf<RecyclerViewItem>()
override fun getItemViewType(position: Int): Int {
if (data[position] is SectionItem) {
return VIEW_TYPE_SECTION
}
return VIEW_TYPE_ITEM
}
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return data.size
}
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
if (viewType == VIEW_TYPE_SECTION) {
return SectionViewHolder(
LayoutInflater.from(parent.context).inflate(R.layout.item_user_section, parent, false)
)
}
return ContentViewHolder(
LayoutInflater.from(parent.context).inflate(R.layout.item_user_content, parent, false)
)
}
override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder, position: Int) {
val item = data[position]
if (holder is SectionViewHolder && item is SectionItem) {
holder.bind(item)
}
if (holder is ContentViewHolder && item is ContentItem) {
holder.bind(item)
}
}
internal inner class SectionViewHolder(itemView: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(itemView) {
fun bind(item: SectionItem) {
itemView.text_section.text = item.title
}
}
internal inner class ContentViewHolder(itemView: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(itemView) {
fun bind(item: ContentItem) {
itemView.text_name.text = item.name
itemView.text_number.text = item.number.toString()
}
}
}
item_user_section.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/text_section"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#eee"
android:padding="16dp" />
item_user_content.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="32dp">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/text_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
tools:text="Name" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/text_number"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Example using
val dataSet = arrayListOf<RecyclerViewItem>(
SectionItem("A1"),
ContentItem("11", 11),
ContentItem("12", 12),
ContentItem("13", 13),
SectionItem("A2"),
ContentItem("21", 21),
ContentItem("22", 22),
SectionItem("A3"),
ContentItem("31", 31),
ContentItem("32", 32),
ContentItem("33", 33),
ContentItem("33", 34),
)
recyclerAdapter.data = dataSet
recyclerAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
sealed class, or in this particular case - sealed interface. Having parent sealed helps to guarantee that all children are checked in the if/when condition
Yes, it is possible.
In your adapter getItemViewType Layout like this ....
public class MultiViewTypeAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {
private ArrayList<Model>dataSet;
Context mContext;
int total_types;
MediaPlayer mPlayer;
private boolean fabStateVolume = false;
public static class TextTypeViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView txtType;
CardView cardView;
public TextTypeViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
this.txtType = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.type);
this.cardView = (CardView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.card_view);
}
}
public static class ImageTypeViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView txtType;
ImageView image;
public ImageTypeViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
this.txtType = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.type);
this.image = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.background);
}
}
public static class AudioTypeViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView txtType;
FloatingActionButton fab;
public AudioTypeViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
this.txtType = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.type);
this.fab = (FloatingActionButton) itemView.findViewById(R.id.fab);
}
}
public MultiViewTypeAdapter(ArrayList<Model>data, Context context) {
this.dataSet = data;
this.mContext = context;
total_types = dataSet.size();
}
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View view;
switch (viewType) {
case Model.TEXT_TYPE:
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.text_type, parent, false);
return new TextTypeViewHolder(view);
case Model.IMAGE_TYPE:
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.image_type, parent, false);
return new ImageTypeViewHolder(view);
case Model.AUDIO_TYPE:
view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.audio_type, parent, false);
return new AudioTypeViewHolder(view);
}
return null;
}
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
switch (dataSet.get(position).type) {
case 0:
return Model.TEXT_TYPE;
case 1:
return Model.IMAGE_TYPE;
case 2:
return Model.AUDIO_TYPE;
default:
return -1;
}
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, final int listPosition) {
Model object = dataSet.get(listPosition);
if (object != null) {
switch (object.type) {
case Model.TEXT_TYPE:
((TextTypeViewHolder) holder).txtType.setText(object.text);
break;
case Model.IMAGE_TYPE:
((ImageTypeViewHolder) holder).txtType.setText(object.text);
((ImageTypeViewHolder) holder).image.setImageResource(object.data);
break;
case Model.AUDIO_TYPE:
((AudioTypeViewHolder) holder).txtType.setText(object.text);
}
}
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return dataSet.size();
}
}
For the reference link: Android RecyclerView Example – Multiple ViewTypes
Simpler than ever, forget about ViewTypes. It is not recommended to use multiple viewtypes inside one adapter. It will mess the code and break the single responsibility principle since now the adapter needs to handle logic to know which view to inflate.
Now imagine working in large teams where each team has to work in one of those viewtypes features. It will be a mess to touch the same adapter by all the teams that work in the different viewtypes. This is solved using ConcatAdapter where you isolate the adapters. Code them one by one and then just merge them inside one view.
From recyclerview:1.2.0-alpha04 you now can use ConcatAdapter.
If you need a view with different viewTypes, you can just write the Adapters for each section and just use ConcatAdapter to merge all of them inside one recyclerview.
ConcatAdapter
This image shows three different viewtypes that one recyclerview has, header, content and footer.
https://i.stack.imgur.com/qdlpN.png
You only create one adapter for each section, and then just use ConcatAdapter to merge them inside one recyclerview:
val firstAdapter: FirstAdapter = …
val secondAdapter: SecondAdapter = …
val thirdAdapter: ThirdAdapter = …
val concatAdapter = ConcatAdapter(firstAdapter, secondAdapter,
thirdAdapter)
recyclerView.adapter = concatAdapter
https://i.stack.imgur.com/nnWnq.png
That's all you need to know. If you want to handle loading state, for example remove the last adapter after some loading happened, you can use LoadState.
implementation "androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:1.2.0-alpha04" in the gradle.
implementation "androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:1.2.1". It worked for me perfectly.
Following Anton's solution, I came up with this ViewHolder which holds/handles/delegates different type of layouts.
But I am not sure if the replacing new layout would work when the recycling view's ViewHolder is not the type of the data roll in.
So basically, onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) is only called when new view layout is needed;
getItemViewType(int position) will be called for the viewType;
onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) is always called when recycling the view (new data is brought in and try to display with that ViewHolder).
So when onBindViewHolder is called it needs to be put in the right view layout and update the ViewHolder.
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
TypedData data = mDataSource.get(position);
return data.type;
}
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,
int viewType) {
return ViewHolder.makeViewHolder(parent, viewType);
}
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder,
int position) {
TypedData data = mDataSource.get(position);
holder.updateData(data);
}
///

ViewHolder has member mItemViewType to hold the view.
It looks like in onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) the ViewHolder passed in has been picked up (or created) by looked at getItemViewType(int position) to make sure it is a match, so it may not need to worry there that ViewHolder's type does not match the data[position]'s type.
It looks like The recycle ViewHolder is picked by type, so no warrior there.
Building a RecyclerView LayoutManager – Part 1 answers this question.
It gets the recycle ViewHolder like:
holder = getRecycledViewPool().getRecycledView(mAdapter.getItemViewType(offsetPosition));
Or create a new one if not find recycle ViewHolder of the right type.
public ViewHolder getRecycledView(int viewType) {
final ArrayList<ViewHolder> scrapHeap = mScrap.get(viewType);
if (scrapHeap != null && !scrapHeap.isEmpty()) {
final int index = scrapHeap.size() - 1;
final ViewHolder scrap = scrapHeap.get(index);
scrapHeap.remove(index);
return scrap;
}
return null;

Although the selected answer is correct, I just want to further elaborate it. I found a useful Custom Adapter for multiple View Types in RecyclerView. Its Kotlin version is here.
The custom adapter is the following:
public class CustomAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {
private final Context context;
ArrayList<String> list; // ArrayList of your Data Model
final int VIEW_TYPE_ONE = 1;
final int VIEW_TYPE_TWO = 2;
public CustomAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<String> list) { // you can pass other parameters in constructor
this.context = context;
this.list = list;
}
private class ViewHolder1 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView yourView;
ViewHolder1(final View itemView) {
super(itemView);
yourView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.yourView); // Initialize your All views prensent in list items
}
void bind(int position) {
// This method will be called anytime a list item is created or update its data
// Do your stuff here
yourView.setText(list.get(position));
}
}
private class ViewHolder2 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView yourView;
ViewHolder2(final View itemView) {
super(itemView);
yourView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.yourView); // Initialize your All views prensent in list items
}
void bind(int position) {
// This method will be called anytime a list item is created or update its data
//Do your stuff here
yourView.setText(list.get(position));
}
}
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
if (viewType == VIEW_TYPE_ONE) {
return new ViewHolder1(LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.your_list_item_1, parent, false));
}
//if its not VIEW_TYPE_ONE then its VIEW_TYPE_TWO
return new ViewHolder2(LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.your_list_item_2, parent, false));
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
if (list.get(position).type == Something) { // Put your condition, according to your requirements
((ViewHolder1) holder).bind(position);
} else {
((ViewHolder2) holder).bind(position);
}
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return list.size();
}
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
// Here you can get decide from your model's ArrayList, which type of view you need to load. Like
if (list.get(position).type == Something) { // Put your condition, according to your requirements
return VIEW_TYPE_ONE;
}
return VIEW_TYPE_TWO;
}
}
I have a better solution which allows to create multiple view types in a declarative and type safe way. It’s written in Kotlin which, by the way, is really nice.
Simple view holders for all required view types
class ViewHolderMedium(itemView: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(itemView) {
val icon: ImageView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.icon) as ImageView
val label: TextView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.label) as TextView
}
There is an abstraction of adapter data item. Note that a view type is represented by a hashCode of particular view holder class (KClass in Kotlin)
trait AdapterItem {
val viewType: Int
fun bindViewHolder(viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder)
}
abstract class AdapterItemBase<T>(val viewHolderClass: KClass<T>) : AdapterItem {
override val viewType: Int = viewHolderClass.hashCode()
abstract fun bindViewHolder(viewHolder: T)
override fun bindViewHolder(viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder) {
bindViewHolder(viewHolder as T)
}
}
Only bindViewHolder needs to be overridden in concrete adapter item classes (type safe way).
class AdapterItemMedium(val icon: Drawable, val label: String, val onClick: () -> Unit) : AdapterItemBase<ViewHolderMedium>(ViewHolderMedium::class) {
override fun bindViewHolder(viewHolder: ViewHolderMedium) {
viewHolder.icon.setImageDrawable(icon)
viewHolder.label.setText(label)
viewHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener { onClick() }
}
}
List of such AdapterItemMedium objects is a data source for the adapter which actually accepts List<AdapterItem>. See below.
The important part of this solution is a view holder factory which will provide fresh instances of a specific ViewHolder:
class ViewHolderProvider {
private val viewHolderFactories = hashMapOf<Int, Pair<Int, Any>>()
fun provideViewHolder(viewGroup: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
val (layoutId: Int, f: Any) = viewHolderFactories.get(viewType)
val viewHolderFactory = f as (View) -> RecyclerView.ViewHolder
val view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(layoutId, viewGroup, false)
return viewHolderFactory(view)
}
fun registerViewHolderFactory<T>(key: KClass<T>, layoutId: Int, viewHolderFactory: (View) -> T) {
viewHolderFactories.put(key.hashCode(), Pair(layoutId, viewHolderFactory))
}
}
And the simple adapter class looks like this:
public class MultitypeAdapter(val items: List<AdapterItem>) : RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>() {
val viewHolderProvider = ViewHolderProvider() // inject ex Dagger2
init {
viewHolderProvider!!.registerViewHolderFactory(ViewHolderMedium::class, R.layout.item_medium, { itemView ->
ViewHolderMedium(itemView)
})
}
override fun getItemViewType(position: Int): Int {
return items[position].viewType
}
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return items.size()
}
override fun onCreateViewHolder(viewGroup: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): RecyclerView.ViewHolder? {
return viewHolderProvider!!.provideViewHolder(viewGroup, viewType)
}
override fun onBindViewHolder(viewHolder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder, position: Int) {
items[position].bindViewHolder(viewHolder)
}
}
There are only three steps to create a new view type:
create a view holder class create an adapter item class (extending from AdapterItemBase) register the view holder class in ViewHolderProvider
Here is an example of this concept: android-drawer-template.
It goes even further - a view type which acts as a spinner component, with selectable adapter items.
It is very simple and straightforward.
Just override the getItemViewType() method in your adapter. On the basis of data return different itemViewType values. E.g., consider an object of type Person with a member isMale, if isMale is true, return 1 and isMale is false, return 2 in the getItemViewType() method.
Now coming to the createViewHolder (ViewGroup parent, int viewType), on the basis of different viewType yon can inflate the different layout file. Like the following:
if (viewType == 1){
View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.male, parent, false);
return new AdapterMaleViewHolder(view);
}
else{
View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.female, parent, false);
return new AdapterFemaleViewHolder(view);
}
in onBindViewHolder (VH holder,int position) check where holder is an instance of AdapterFemaleViewHolder or AdapterMaleViewHolder by instanceof and accordingly assign the values.
ViewHolder may be like this
class AdapterMaleViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
...
public AdapterMaleViewHolder(View itemView){
...
}
}
class AdapterFemaleViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
...
public AdapterFemaleViewHolder(View itemView){
...
}
}
I recommend this library from Hannes Dorfmann. It encapsulates all the logic related to a particular view type in a separate object called "AdapterDelegate".
https://github.com/sockeqwe/AdapterDelegates
public class CatAdapterDelegate extends AdapterDelegate<List<Animal>> {
private LayoutInflater inflater;
public CatAdapterDelegate(Activity activity) {
inflater = activity.getLayoutInflater();
}
@Override public boolean isForViewType(@NonNull List<Animal> items, int position) {
return items.get(position) instanceof Cat;
}
@NonNull @Override public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent) {
return new CatViewHolder(inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_cat, parent, false));
}
@Override public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull List<Animal> items, int position,
@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, @Nullable List<Object> payloads) {
CatViewHolder vh = (CatViewHolder) holder;
Cat cat = (Cat) items.get(position);
vh.name.setText(cat.getName());
}
static class CatViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView name;
public CatViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
name = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.name);
}
}
}
public class AnimalAdapter extends ListDelegationAdapter<List<Animal>> {
public AnimalAdapter(Activity activity, List<Animal> items) {
// DelegatesManager is a protected Field in ListDelegationAdapter
delegatesManager.addDelegate(new CatAdapterDelegate(activity))
.addDelegate(new DogAdapterDelegate(activity))
.addDelegate(new GeckoAdapterDelegate(activity))
.addDelegate(23, new SnakeAdapterDelegate(activity));
// Set the items from super class.
setItems(items);
}
}
If anyone is interested to see the super simple solution written in Kotlin, check the blogpost I just created. The example in the blogpost is based on creating Sectioned RecyclerView:
https://brona.blog/2020/06/sectioned-recyclerview-in-three-steps/
I firstly recommend you to read Hannes Dorfmann's great article about this topic.
When a new view type comes, you have to edit your adapter and you have to handle so many messy things. Your adapter should be open for extension, but closed for modification.
You may check this two project, they can give the idea about how to handle different ViewTypes in Adapter:
https://github.com/sockeqwe/AdapterDelegates
https://github.com/ibrahimyilmaz/kiel
Actually, I'd like to improve on Anton's answer.
Since getItemViewType(int position) returns an integer value, you can return the layout resource ID you'd need to inflate. That way you'd save some logic in onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) method.
Also, I wouldn't suggest doing intensive calculations in getItemCount() as that particular function is called at least 5 times while rendering the list, as well as while rendering each item beyond the visible items. Sadly since notifyDatasetChanged() method is final, you can't really override it, but you can call it from another function within the adapter.
Note: Integers must be in the range 0 to getViewTypeCount() - 1. IGNORE_ITEM_VIEW_TYPE can also be returned. So it's just better to write bit more code and don't use hacks.
You can use the library: https://github.com/vivchar/RendererRecyclerViewAdapter
mRecyclerViewAdapter = new RendererRecyclerViewAdapter(); /* Included from library */
mRecyclerViewAdapter.registerRenderer(new SomeViewRenderer(SomeModel.TYPE, this));
mRecyclerViewAdapter.registerRenderer(...); /* You can use several types of cells */
For each item, you should to implement a ViewRenderer, ViewHolder, SomeModel:
ViewHolder - it is a simple view holder of recycler view.
SomeModel - it is your model with ItemModel interface
public class SomeViewRenderer extends ViewRenderer<SomeModel, SomeViewHolder> {
public SomeViewRenderer(final int type, final Context context) {
super(type, context);
}
@Override
public void bindView(@NonNull final SomeModel model, @NonNull final SomeViewHolder holder) {
holder.mTitle.setText(model.getTitle());
}
@NonNull
@Override
public SomeViewHolder createViewHolder(@Nullable final ViewGroup parent) {
return new SomeViewHolder(LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.some_item, parent, false));
}
}
For more details you can look at the documentation.
View types implementation becomes easier with Kotlin. Here is a sample with this light library https://github.com/Link184/KidAdapter
recyclerView.setUp {
withViewType {
withLayoutResId(R.layout.item_int)
withItems(mutableListOf(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6))
bind<Int> { // this - is adapter view hoder itemView, it - current item
intName.text = it.toString()
}
}
withViewType("SECOND_STRING_TAG") {
withLayoutResId(R.layout.item_text)
withItems(mutableListOf("eight", "nine", "ten", "eleven", "twelve"))
bind<String> {
stringName.text = it
}
}
}
You can deal with multipleViewTypes RecyclerAdapter by making getItemViewType() return the expected viewType value for that position.
I prepared an MultipleViewTypeAdapter for constructing an MCQ list for examinations which may throw a question that may have two or more valid answers (checkbox options) and a single answer questions (radiobutton options).
For this I get the type of question from the API response and I used that for deciding which view I have to show for that question.
public class MultiViewTypeAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {
Context mContext;
ArrayList<Question> dataSet;
ArrayList<String> questions;
private Object radiobuttontype1;
//Viewholder to display Questions with checkboxes
public static class Checkboxtype2 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
ImageView imgclockcheck;
CheckBox checkbox;
public Checkboxtype2(@NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
imgclockcheck = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.clockout_cbox_image);
checkbox = (CheckBox) itemView.findViewById(R.id.clockout_cbox);
}
}
//Viewholder to display Questions with radiobuttons
public static class Radiobuttontype1 extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
ImageView clockout_imageradiobutton;
RadioButton clockout_radiobutton;
TextView sample;
public radiobuttontype1(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
clockout_imageradiobutton = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.clockout_imageradiobutton);
clockout_radiobutton = (RadioButton) itemView.findViewById(R.id.clockout_radiobutton);
sample = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.sample);
}
}
public MultiViewTypeAdapter(ArrayList<QueDatum> data, Context context) {
this.dataSet = data;
this.mContext = context;
}
@NonNull
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup viewGroup, int viewType) {
if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("1")) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.clockout_radio_list_row, viewGroup, false);
return new radiobuttontype1(view);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("2")) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.clockout_cbox_list_row, viewGroup, false);
view.setHorizontalFadingEdgeEnabled(true);
return new Checkboxtype2(view);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("3")) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.clockout_radio_list_row, viewGroup, false);
return new Radiobuttontype1(view);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("4")) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.clockout_radio_list_row, viewGroup, false);
return new Radiobuttontype1(view);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("5")) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.clockout_radio_list_row, viewGroup, false);
return new Radiobuttontype1(view);
}
return null;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, int viewType) {
if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("1")) {
options = dataSet.get(i).getOptions();
question = dataSet.get(i).getQuestion();
image = options.get(i).getValue();
((radiobuttontype1) viewHolder).clockout_radiobutton.setChecked(false);
((radiobuttontype1) viewHolder).sample.setText(question);
//Loading image bitmap in the ViewHolder's View
Picasso.with(mContext)
.load(image)
.into(((radiobuttontype1) viewHolder).clockout_imageradiobutton);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("2")) {
options = (ArrayList<Clockout_questions_Option>) dataSet.get(i).getOptions();
question = dataSet.get(i).getQuestion();
image = options.get(i).getValue();
//Loading image bitmap in the ViewHolder's View
Picasso.with(mContext)
.load(image)
.into(((Checkboxtype2) viewHolder).imgclockcheck);
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("3")) {
//Fit data to viewHolder for ViewType 3
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("4")) {
//Fit data to viewHolder for ViewType 4
} else if (viewType.equalsIgnoreCase("5")) {
//Fit data to viewHolder for ViewType 5
}
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return dataSet.size();
}
/**
* Returns viewType for that position by picking the viewType value from the
* dataset
*/
@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
return dataSet.get(position).getViewType();
}
}
You can avoid multiple conditionals based viewHolder data fillings in onBindViewHolder() by assigning same ids for the similar views across viewHolders which differ in their positioning.
If you want to use it in conjunction with Android Data Binding look into the https://github.com/evant/binding-collection-adapter - it is by far the best solution for the multiple view types RecyclerView I have even seen.
You may use it like
var items: AsyncDiffPagedObservableList<BaseListItem> =
AsyncDiffPagedObservableList(GenericDiff)
val onItemBind: OnItemBind<BaseListItem> =
OnItemBind { itemBinding, _, item -> itemBinding.set(BR.item, item.layoutRes) }
And then in the layout where the list is:
<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
app:enableAnimations="@{false}"
app:scrollToPosition="@{viewModel.scrollPosition}"
app:itemBinding="@{viewModel.onItemBind}"
app:items="@{viewModel.items}"
app:reverseLayoutManager="@{true}"/>
Your list items must implement the BaseListItem interface which looks like this:
interface BaseListItem {
val layoutRes: Int
}
And the item view should look something like this:
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<data>
<variable
name="item"
type="...presentation.somescreen.list.YourListItem"/>
</data>
...
</layout>
Where YourListItem implements BaseListItem.
First you must create two layout XML files. After that inside recyclerview adapter TYPE_CALL and TYPE_EMAIL are two static values with 1 and 2 respectively in the adapter class.
Now define two static values at the Recycler view Adapter class level, for example: private static int TYPE_CALL = 1; private static int TYPE_EMAIL = 2;
Now create the view holder with multiple views like this:
class CallViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
private TextView txtName;
private TextView txtAddress;
CallViewHolder(@NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
txtName = itemView.findViewById(R.id.txtName);
txtAddress = itemView.findViewById(R.id.txtAddress);
}
}
class EmailViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
private TextView txtName;
private TextView txtAddress;
EmailViewHolder(@NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
txtName = itemView.findViewById(R.id.txtName);
txtAddress = itemView.findViewById(R.id.txtAddress);
}
}
Now code as below in onCreateViewHolder and onBindViewHolder method in the recyclerview adapter:
@NonNull
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup viewGroup, int viewType) {
View view;
if (viewType == TYPE_CALL) { // for call layout
view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.item_call, viewGroup, false);
return new CallViewHolder(view);
} else { // for email layout
view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.item_email, viewGroup, false);
return new EmailViewHolder(view);
}
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
if (getItemViewType(position) == TYPE_CALL) {
((CallViewHolder) viewHolder).setCallDetails(employees.get(position));
} else {
((EmailViewHolder) viewHolder).setEmailDetails(employees.get(position));
}
}
I did something like this. I passed "fragmentType" and created two ViewHolders and on basis of this, I classified my Layouts accordingly in a single adapter that can have different Layouts and LayoutManagers
private Context mContext;
protected IOnLoyaltyCardCategoriesItemClicked mListener;
private String fragmentType;
private View view;
public LoyaltyCardsCategoriesRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, IOnLoyaltyCardCategoriesItemClicked itemListener, String fragmentType) {
this.mContext = context;
this.mListener = itemListener;
this.fragmentType = fragmentType;
}
public class LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
private ImageView lc_categories_iv;
private TextView lc_categories_name_tv;
private int pos;
public LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentViewHolder(View v) {
super(v);
view.setOnClickListener(this);
lc_categories_iv = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.lc_categories_iv);
lc_categories_name_tv = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.lc_categories_name_tv);
}
public void setData(int pos) {
this.pos = pos;
lc_categories_iv.setImageResource(R.mipmap.ic_launcher);
lc_categories_name_tv.setText("Loyalty Card Categories");
}
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if (mListener != null) {
mListener.onLoyaltyCardCategoriesItemClicked(pos);
}
}
}
public class MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTagViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
public ImageButton lc_categories_btn;
private int pos;
public MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTagViewHolder(View v) {
super(v);
lc_categories_btn = (ImageButton) v.findViewById(R.id.lc_categories_btn);
lc_categories_btn.setOnClickListener(this);
}
public void setData(int pos) {
this.pos = pos;
lc_categories_btn.setImageResource(R.mipmap.ic_launcher);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if (mListener != null) {
mListener.onLoyaltyCardCategoriesItemClicked(pos);
}
}
}
@NonNull
@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
if (fragmentType.equalsIgnoreCase(Constants.LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentTag)) {
view = LayoutInflater.from(mContext).inflate(R.layout.loyalty_cards_categories_frag_item, parent, false);
return new LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentViewHolder(view);
} else if (fragmentType.equalsIgnoreCase(Constants.MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTag)) {
view = LayoutInflater.from(mContext).inflate(R.layout.my_loyalty_cards_categories_frag_item, parent, false);
return new MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTagViewHolder(view);
} else {
return null;
}
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
if (fragmentType.equalsIgnoreCase(Constants.LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentTag)) {
((LoyaltyCardCategoriesFragmentViewHolder) holder).setData(position);
} else if (fragmentType.equalsIgnoreCase(Constants.MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTag)) {
((MyLoyaltyCardsFragmentTagViewHolder) holder).setData(position);
}
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return 7;
}
I see there are a lot of great answers, incredibly detailed and extensive. In my case, I always understand things better if I follow along the reasoning from almost scratch, step by step.
