I used to have the same problem finding a good library to do that. Eventually, I created a library which can do that: SwipeRevealLayout
In gradle file:
dependencies {
compile 'com.chauthai.swipereveallayout:swipe-reveal-layout:1.4.0'
}
In your xml file:
<com.chauthai.swipereveallayout.SwipeRevealLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:mode="same_level"
app:dragEdge="left">
<!-- Your secondary layout here -->
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<!-- Your main layout here -->
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</com.chauthai.swipereveallayout.SwipeRevealLayout>
Then in your adapter file:
public class Adapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {
// This object helps you save/restore the open/close state of each view
private final ViewBinderHelper viewBinderHelper = new ViewBinderHelper();
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
// get your data object first.
YourDataObject dataObject = mDataSet.get(position);
// Save/restore the open/close state.
// You need to provide a String id which uniquely defines the data object.
viewBinderHelper.bind(holder.swipeRevealLayout, dataObject.getId());
// do your regular binding stuff here
}
}
