Announcement: repository changing ownership

On the 21th of May 2024 this repository will change ownership and move to the personal account of one of it's maintainers, Idan Atsmon.

OneAdapter

OneAdapter is made to simplify and enhance the use of the RecyclerView's Adapter while preventing common mistakes. With multiple modules and hooks, you don't have to think about writing an adapter anymore, and just focus on what matters.

For better understanding what drove me to write this library and what use cases it solves best, please refer to my Medium post: https://medium.com/@idanatsmon/adapting-your-recyclerview-the-2019-approach-e47edf2fc4f3

What's new:

Version 2.0.0 is out with a brand new Kotlin API!<br/> Kotlin is now the first priority of this library and as such comes a full API change, every Module, Hook and State is now created using dedicated DSLs.<br/> Check the example below or sample project for reference for Kotlin & Java use.

Features:

• Modular approach for more reusable and testable code
• Built-in support for DiffUtil (using Diffable)
• Optimized performance - internal processing done on a background thread
• 100% written in Kotlin with Kotlin friendly API using DSLs
• Modules:
  • Item Module
  • Paging Module
  • Emptiness Module
  • Selection Module
• Event Hooks:
  • Click Event Hook
  • Swipe Event Hook
• Others:
  • First Bind Animation
  • Data Binding

Basic Usage

1. Implement Item Module

Item Modules are used for the creation and binding of all ViewHolders for you. In the onBind method, you will receive as a parameter the model associated with this view and a ViewBinder class that lets you find (and cache) the views defined in the associated layout file.

class MessageModule : ItemModule<MessageModel>() {
    init {
        config {
            layoutResource = R.layout.message_model
        }
        onBind { model, viewBinder, metadata ->
            val title = viewBinder.findViewById<TextView>(R.id.title)
            title.text = model.title
        }
        onUnbind { model, viewBinder, metadata ->
            // unbind logic like stop animation, release webview resources, etc.
        }
    }
}

2. Implement Diffable

The Adapter is calculating the difference between its current data and the modified data on a background thread and posting the result to the main thread. In order for this magic to work without writing tons of DiffUtil.Callback, your models need to implement one simple interface:

class MessageModel : Diffable {
    private val id: Long = 0L
    private val title: String? = null

    override val uniqueIdentifier: Long = id
    override fun areContentTheSame(other: Any): Boolean = other is MessageModel && title == other.title
}

3. Attach To OneAdapter & Use

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    itemModule += MessageModule()
} 
oneAdapter.setItems(...) 

<br/><br/>

Advanced Usage

Modules

Multiple Types

Have more than one view type? not a problem, just create another ItemModule and attach it to OneAdapter in the same way.

1. Implement Multiple Item Modules

class MessageModule : ItemModule<MessageModel> { ... }
class StoryModule : ItemModule<StoryModel> { ... }

2. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    itemModule += MessageModule()
    itemModule += StoryModule()
    ...
}

<br/><br/>

Paging Module

Paging Module is used for creating and binding a specific ViewHolder at the end of the list when the Adapter reaches a load more state. The visible threshold configuration is used to indicate how many items before the end of the list the onLoadMore callback should be invoked. <br/></br> <img src="https://media1.tenor.com/images/275a6daed242e8f0c09b5020d602a2eb/tenor.gif?itemid=15858072" width="210" height="420"> <br/>

1. Implement Paging Modules

class PagingModuleImpl : PagingModule() {
    init {
        config {
            layoutResource = R.layout.load_more // can be some spinner animation
            visibleThreshold = 3 // invoke onLoadMore 3 items before the end
        }
        onLoadMore { currentPage ->
            // place your load more logic here, like asking the ViewModel to load the next page of data.
        }
    }
}

2. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    // itemModule += ...
    pagingModule = PagingModuleImpl()
}

<br/><br/>

Emptiness Module

Emptiness Module is used for creating and binding a specific ViewHolder when the Adapter has no data to render. <br/></br> <img src="https://media1.tenor.com/images/c653010777465c1c5d115210b7e349e8/tenor.gif?itemid=15858077" width="210" height="420"> <br/>

1. Implement Emptiness Modules

class EmptinessModuleImpl : EmptinessModule() {
    init {
    	config {
            layoutResource = R.layout.empty_state
        }
        onBind { viewBinder, metadata -> ... }
        onUnbind { viewBinder, metadata -> ... }
    }
}

2. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    // itemModule += ...
    emptinessModule = EmptinessModuleImpl()
}

<br/><br/>

Selection Module

Selection Module is used for enabling single or multiple selection on Items. <br/></br> <img src="https://media.tenor.com/images/2d6fdae647c6c774ceadeb79d7640e42/tenor.gif" width="210" height="420"> <br/>

1. Implement Selection Modules

class ItemSelectionModuleImpl : ItemSelectionModule() {
    init {
    	config {
            selectionType = SelectionType.Multiple // Or SelectionType.Single
        }
        onStartSelection {
            // place your general selection logic here, like changing the toolbar text to indicate the selected count.
        } 
        onUpdateSelection { selectedCount -> ... }
        onEndSelection { ... }
    }
}

2. Implement Selection State

class MessageModule : ItemModule<MessageModel>() {
    init {
        // config, onBind, etc...
        
        states += SelectionState<MessageModel>().apply {
            config {
                enabled = true // decide if the selection should be enabled for this model, true by default
                selectionTrigger = SelectionTrigger.LongClick // decide what trigger the selection, long or regular click
            }
            onSelected { model, selected ->
                // insert your selected logic here. 
                // right after this call you will receive an onBind call in order to reflect your changes on the relevant Item Module.
            }
        }
    }
}

3. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    itemModule += MessageModule()
    itemSelectionModule = ItemSelectionModuleImpl()
}

<br/><br/><br/>

Event Hooks

Item Modules can easily be enhanced with event hooks to get access to common events like clicking or swiping on an item.

Click Event Hook

Click Hook can be attached in order to recieve click events on an item. <br/></br> <img src="https://media1.tenor.com/images/6c6b218f27b250d1c72d98fc64ba895d/tenor.gif?itemid=15858123" width="210" height="420"> <br/>

class MessageModule : ItemModule<MessageModel>() {
    init {
        // config, onBind, etc...
        
        eventHooks += ClickEventHook<MessageModel>().apply {
            onClick { model, viewBinder, metadata -> 
                // place your on click logic here. 
            }
        }
    }
}

2. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    itemModule += MessageModule()
}

<br/><br/>

Swipe Event Hook

Swipe Hook can be attached in order to receive swiping (during and when completed) events on an item. <br/></br> <img src="https://media1.tenor.com/images/6628708db23f76d528f451b1d1d8fd4c/tenor.gif?itemid=15858132" width="210" height="420"> <br/>

class MessageModule : ItemModule<MessageModel>() {
    init {
        // config, onBind, etc...
        
        eventHooks += SwipeEventHook<MessageModel>().apply {
            config {
                swipeDirection = listOf(SwipeEventHook.SwipeDirection.Start, SwipeEventHook.SwipeDirection.End)
            }
            onSwipe { canvas, xAxisOffset, viewBinder ->
                // draw your swipe UI here.
                // like painting the canvas red with a delete icon.
            }
            onSwipeComplete { model, viewBinder, metadata ->
                // place your swipe logic here.
                // like removing an item after it was swiped right.
            }
        }
    }
}

2. Attach To OneAdapter

val oneAdapter = OneAdapter(recyclerView) {
    itemModule += MessageModule()

            // can be implemented by inflating Animator Xml
            firstBindAnimation = AnimatorInflater.loadAnimator(this@FirstBindAnimationActivity, R.animator.item_animation_example)
			
            // or can be implemented by constructing ObjectAnimator
            firstBindAnimation = ObjectAnimator().apply {
