I am trying to implement the SearchView from the support library. I want the user to be to use the SearchView to filter a List of movies in a RecyclerView.
I have followed a few tutorials so far and I have added the SearchView to the ActionBar, but I am not really sure where to go from here. I have seen a few examples but none of them show results as you start typing.
This is my MainActivity:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
RecyclerView mRecyclerView;
RecyclerView.LayoutManager mLayoutManager;
RecyclerView.Adapter mAdapter;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_recycler_view);
mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recycler_view);
mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
mAdapter = new CardAdapter() {
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
return null;
}
};
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);
SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.menu_search).getActionView();
searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()));
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
And this is my Adapter:
public abstract class CardAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<CardAdapter.ViewHolder> implements Filterable {
List<Movie> mItems;
public CardAdapter() {
super();
mItems = new ArrayList<Movie>();
Movie movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Spiderman");
movie.setRating("92");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Doom 3");
movie.setRating("91");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Transformers");
movie.setRating("88");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Transformers 2");
movie.setRating("87");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Transformers 3");
movie.setRating("86");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Noah");
movie.setRating("86");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Ironman");
movie.setRating("86");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Ironman 2");
movie.setRating("86");
mItems.add(movie);
movie = new Movie();
movie.setName("Ironman 3");
movie.setRating("86");
mItems.add(movie);
}
@Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
View v = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.recycler_view_card_item, viewGroup, false);
return new ViewHolder(v);
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewHolder, int i) {
Movie movie = mItems.get(i);
viewHolder.tvMovie.setText(movie.getName());
viewHolder.tvMovieRating.setText(movie.getRating());
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mItems.size();
}
class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
public TextView tvMovie;
public TextView tvMovieRating;
public ViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
tvMovie = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.movieName);
tvMovieRating = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.movieRating);
}
}
}
This question is related to
android
android-recyclerview
searchview
android-filterable
The answer is
I recommend modify the solution of @Xaver Kapeller with 2 things below to avoid a problem after you cleared the searched text (the filter didn't work anymore) due to the list back of adapter has smaller size than filter list and the IndexOutOfBoundsException happened. So the code need to modify as below
public void addItem(int position, ExampleModel model) {
if(position >= mModel.size()) {
mModel.add(model);
notifyItemInserted(mModel.size()-1);
} else {
mModels.add(position, model);
notifyItemInserted(position);
}
}
And modify also in moveItem functionality
public void moveItem(int fromPosition, int toPosition) {
final ExampleModel model = mModels.remove(fromPosition);
if(toPosition >= mModels.size()) {
mModels.add(model);
notifyItemMoved(fromPosition, mModels.size()-1);
} else {
mModels.add(toPosition, model);
notifyItemMoved(fromPosition, toPosition);
}
}
Hope that It could help you!
I have solved the same problem using the link with some modifications in it. Search filter on RecyclerView with Cards. Is it even possible? (hope this helps).
Here is my adapter class
public class ContactListRecyclerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<ContactListRecyclerAdapter.ContactViewHolder> implements Filterable {
Context mContext;
ArrayList<Contact> customerList;
ArrayList<Contact> parentCustomerList;
public ContactListRecyclerAdapter(Context context,ArrayList<Contact> customerList)
{
this.mContext=context;
this.customerList=customerList;
if(customerList!=null)
parentCustomerList=new ArrayList<>(customerList);
}
// other overrided methods
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
return new FilterCustomerSearch(this,parentCustomerList);
}
}
//Filter class
import android.widget.Filter;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class FilterCustomerSearch extends Filter
{
private final ContactListRecyclerAdapter mAdapter;
ArrayList<Contact> contactList;
ArrayList<Contact> filteredList;
public FilterCustomerSearch(ContactListRecyclerAdapter mAdapter,ArrayList<Contact> contactList) {
this.mAdapter = mAdapter;
this.contactList=contactList;
filteredList=new ArrayList<>();
}
@Override
protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
filteredList.clear();
final FilterResults results = new FilterResults();
if (constraint.length() == 0) {
filteredList.addAll(contactList);
} else {
final String filterPattern = constraint.toString().toLowerCase().trim();
for (final Contact contact : contactList) {
if (contact.customerName.contains(constraint)) {
filteredList.add(contact);
}
else if (contact.emailId.contains(constraint))
{
filteredList.add(contact);
}
else if(contact.phoneNumber.contains(constraint))
filteredList.add(contact);
}
}
results.values = filteredList;
results.count = filteredList.size();
return results;
}
@Override
protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint, FilterResults results) {
mAdapter.customerList.clear();
mAdapter.customerList.addAll((ArrayList<Contact>) results.values);
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
//Activity class
public class HomeCrossFadeActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements View.OnClickListener,OnFragmentInteractionListener,OnTaskCompletedListner
{
Fragment fragment;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_homecrossfadeslidingpane2);CardView mCard;
setContentView(R.layout.your_main_xml);}
//other overrided methods
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
// Inflate menu to add items to action bar if it is present.
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_customer_view_and_search, menu);
// Associate searchable configuration with the SearchView
SearchManager searchManager =
(SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);
SearchView searchView =
(SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.menu_search).getActionView();
searchView.setQueryHint("Search Customer");
searchView.setSearchableInfo(
searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()));
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
return false;
}
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
if(fragment instanceof CustomerDetailsViewWithModifyAndSearch)
((CustomerDetailsViewWithModifyAndSearch)fragment).adapter.getFilter().filter(newText);
return false;
}
});
return true;
}
}
In OnQueryTextChangeListener() method use your adapter. I have casted it to fragment as my adpter is in fragment. You can use the adapter directly if its in your activity class.
This is my take on expanding @klimat answer to not losing filtering animation.
public void filter(String query){
int completeListIndex = 0;
int filteredListIndex = 0;
while (completeListIndex < completeList.size()){
Movie item = completeList.get(completeListIndex);
if(item.getName().toLowerCase().contains(query)){
if(filteredListIndex < filteredList.size()) {
Movie filter = filteredList.get(filteredListIndex);
if (!item.getName().equals(filter.getName())) {
filteredList.add(filteredListIndex, item);
notifyItemInserted(filteredListIndex);
}
}else{
filteredList.add(filteredListIndex, item);
notifyItemInserted(filteredListIndex);
}
filteredListIndex++;
}
else if(filteredListIndex < filteredList.size()){
Movie filter = filteredList.get(filteredListIndex);
if (item.getName().equals(filter.getName())) {
filteredList.remove(filteredListIndex);
notifyItemRemoved(filteredListIndex);
}
}
completeListIndex++;
}
}
Basically what it does is looking through a complete list and adding/removing items to a filtered list one by one.
simply create two list in adapter one orignal and one temp and implements Filterable.
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
return new Filter() {
@Override
protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
final FilterResults oReturn = new FilterResults();
final ArrayList<T> results = new ArrayList<>();
if (origList == null)
origList = new ArrayList<>(itemList);
if (constraint != null && constraint.length() > 0) {
if (origList != null && origList.size() > 0) {
for (final T cd : origList) {
if (cd.getAttributeToSearch().toLowerCase()
.contains(constraint.toString().toLowerCase()))
results.add(cd);
}
}
oReturn.values = results;
oReturn.count = results.size();//newly Aded by ZA
} else {
oReturn.values = origList;
oReturn.count = origList.size();//newly added by ZA
}
return oReturn;
}
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
protected void publishResults(final CharSequence constraint,
FilterResults results) {
itemList = new ArrayList<>((ArrayList<T>) results.values);
// FIXME: 8/16/2017 implement Comparable with sort below
///Collections.sort(itemList);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
};
}
where
public GenericBaseAdapter(Context mContext, List<T> itemList) {
this.mContext = mContext;
this.itemList = itemList;
this.origList = itemList;
}
Following @Shruthi Kamoji in a cleaner way, we can just use a filterable, its meant for that:
public abstract class GenericRecycleAdapter<E> extends RecyclerView.Adapter implements Filterable
{
protected List<E> list;
protected List<E> originalList;
protected Context context;
public GenericRecycleAdapter(Context context,
List<E> list)
{
this.originalList = list;
this.list = list;
this.context = context;
}
...
@Override
public Filter getFilter() {
return new Filter() {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint, FilterResults results) {
list = (List<E>) results.values;
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
@Override
protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
List<E> filteredResults = null;
if (constraint.length() == 0) {
filteredResults = originalList;
} else {
filteredResults = getFilteredResults(constraint.toString().toLowerCase());
}
FilterResults results = new FilterResults();
results.values = filteredResults;
return results;
}
};
}
protected List<E> getFilteredResults(String constraint) {
List<E> results = new ArrayList<>();
for (E item : originalList) {
if (item.getName().toLowerCase().contains(constraint)) {
results.add(item);
}
}
return results;
}
}
The E here is a Generic Type, you can extend it using your class:
public class customerAdapter extends GenericRecycleAdapter<CustomerModel>
Or just change the E to the type you want (<CustomerModel> for example)
Then from searchView (the widget you can put on menu.xml):
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String text) {
return false;
}
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String text) {
yourAdapter.getFilter().filter(text);
return true;
}
});
All you need to do is to add filter method in RecyclerView.Adapter:
public void filter(String text) {
items.clear();
if(text.isEmpty()){
items.addAll(itemsCopy);
} else{
text = text.toLowerCase();
for(PhoneBookItem item: itemsCopy){
if(item.name.toLowerCase().contains(text) || item.phone.toLowerCase().contains(text)){
items.add(item);
}
}
}
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
itemsCopy is initialized in adapter's constructor like itemsCopy.addAll(items).
If you do so, just call filter from OnQueryTextListener:
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
adapter.filter(query);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
adapter.filter(newText);
return true;
}
});
It's an example from filtering my phonebook by name and phone number.
I don't know why everyone is using 2 copies of the same list to solve this. This uses too much RAM...
Why not just hide the elements that are not found, and simply store their index in a Set to be able to restore them later? That's much less RAM especially if your objects are quite large.
public class MyRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyRecyclerViewAdapter.SampleViewHolders>{
private List<MyObject> myObjectsList; //holds the items of type MyObject
private Set<Integer> foundObjects; //holds the indices of the found items
public MyRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, List<MyObject> myObjectsList)
{
this.myObjectsList = myObjectsList;
this.foundObjects = new HashSet<>();
//first, add all indices to the indices set
for(int i = 0; i < this.myObjectsList.size(); i++)
{
this.foundObjects.add(i);
}
}
@NonNull
@Override
public SampleViewHolders onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View layoutView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(
R.layout.my_layout_for_staggered_grid, null);
MyRecyclerViewAdapter.SampleViewHolders rcv = new MyRecyclerViewAdapter.SampleViewHolders(layoutView);
return rcv;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull SampleViewHolders holder, int position)
{
//look for object in O(1) in the indices set
if(!foundObjects.contains(position))
{
//object not found => hide it.
holder.hideLayout();
return;
}
else
{
//object found => show it.
holder.showLayout();
}
//holder.imgImageView.setImageResource(...)
//holder.nameTextView.setText(...)
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return myObjectsList.size();
}
public void findObject(String text)
{
//look for "text" in the objects list
for(int i = 0; i < myObjectsList.size(); i++)
{
//if it's empty text, we want all objects, so just add it to the set.
if(text.length() == 0)
{
foundObjects.add(i);
}
else
{
//otherwise check if it meets your search criteria and add it or remove it accordingly
if (myObjectsList.get(i).getName().toLowerCase().contains(text.toLowerCase()))
{
foundObjects.add(i);
}
else
{
foundObjects.remove(i);
}
}
}
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
public class SampleViewHolders extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener
{
public ImageView imgImageView;
public TextView nameTextView;
private final CardView layout;
private final CardView.LayoutParams hiddenLayoutParams;
private final CardView.LayoutParams shownLayoutParams;
public SampleViewHolders(View itemView)
{
super(itemView);
itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
imgImageView = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.some_image_view);
nameTextView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.display_name_textview);
layout = itemView.findViewById(R.id.card_view); //card_view is the id of my androidx.cardview.widget.CardView in my xml layout
//prepare hidden layout params with height = 0, and visible layout params for later - see hideLayout() and showLayout()
hiddenLayoutParams = new CardView.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
hiddenLayoutParams.height = 0;
shownLayoutParams = new CardView.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
//implement...
}
private void hideLayout() {
//hide the layout
layout.setLayoutParams(hiddenLayoutParams);
}
private void showLayout() {
//show the layout
layout.setLayoutParams(shownLayoutParams);
}
}
}
And I simply have an EditText as my search box:
cardsSearchTextView.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i1, int i2) {
}
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence charSequence, int i, int i1, int i2) {
}
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable editable) {
myViewAdapter.findObject(editable.toString().toLowerCase());
}
});
Result:
Add an interface in your adapter.
public interface SelectedUser{
void selectedUser(UserModel userModel);
}
implement the interface in your mainactivity and override the method. @Override public void selectedUser(UserModel userModel) {
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, SelectedUserActivity.class).putExtra("data",userModel));
}
Full tutorial and source code: Recyclerview with searchview and onclicklistener
In Adapter:
public void setFilter(List<Channel> newList){
mChannels = new ArrayList<>();
mChannels.addAll(newList);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
In Activity:
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
return false;
}
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
newText = newText.toLowerCase();
ArrayList<Channel> newList = new ArrayList<>();
for (Channel channel: channels){
String channelName = channel.getmChannelName().toLowerCase();
if (channelName.contains(newText)){
newList.add(channel);
}
}
mAdapter.setFilter(newList);
return true;
}
});
With Android Architecture Components through the use of LiveData this can be easily implemented with any type of Adapter. You simply have to do the following steps:
1. Setup your data to return from the Room Database as LiveData as in the example below:
@Dao
public interface CustomDAO{
@Query("SELECT * FROM words_table WHERE column LIKE :searchquery")
public LiveData<List<Word>> searchFor(String searchquery);
}
2. Create a ViewModel object to update your data live through a method that will connect your DAO and your UI
public class CustomViewModel extends AndroidViewModel {
private final AppDatabase mAppDatabase;
public WordListViewModel(@NonNull Application application) {
super(application);
this.mAppDatabase = AppDatabase.getInstance(application.getApplicationContext());
}
public LiveData<List<Word>> searchQuery(String query) {
return mAppDatabase.mWordDAO().searchFor(query);
}
}
3. Call your data from the ViewModel on the fly by passing in the query through onQueryTextListener as below:
Inside onCreateOptionsMenu set your listener as follows
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(onQueryTextListener);
Setup your query listener somewhere in your SearchActivity class as follows
private android.support.v7.widget.SearchView.OnQueryTextListener onQueryTextListener =
new android.support.v7.widget.SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
getResults(query);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
getResults(newText);
return true;
}
private void getResults(String newText) {
String queryText = "%" + newText + "%";
mCustomViewModel.searchQuery(queryText).observe(
SearchResultsActivity.this, new Observer<List<Word>>() {
@Override
public void onChanged(@Nullable List<Word> words) {
if (words == null) return;
searchAdapter.submitList(words);
}
});
}
};
Note: Steps (1.) and (2.) are standard AAC ViewModel and DAO implementation, the only real "magic" going on here is in the OnQueryTextListener which will update the results of your list dynamically as the query text changes.
If you need more clarification on the matter please don't hesitate to ask. I hope this helped :).
