MultiType

An Android library to create multiple item types list views easily and flexibly.

English Version | 《Android 复杂的列表视图新写法 · 详解篇》

Previously, when we need to develop a complex RecyclerView/ListView, it is a difficult and troublesome work. We should override the getItemViewType of RecyclerView.Adapter , add some types, and create some ViewHolders relating to the types. The process is cumbersome.

Once we need to add a new item type, we have to go to the original adapter and modify some old codes, and adapter classes will be more bulky.

Today, I create a new intuitive and flexible way to easily create the complex RecyclerView/ListView, with the MultiType library, we could insert a new item type without changing the old adapter codes and make them more readable.

Getting started

In your build.gradle:

dependencies {
    compile 'me.drakeet.multitype:multitype:3.3.0'
}

If you are using com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.+, use this instead:

dependencies {
    implementation 'me.drakeet.multitype:multitype:3.3.0'
}

Note: MultiType does not support RecyclerView below version 23.0.0.

Usage

Step 1. Create a class, It would be your data model/Java bean, for example:

public class TextItem {

    public @NonNull final String text;

    public TextItem(@NonNull String text) {
        this.text = text;
    }
}

Step 2. Create a class extends ItemViewBinder<T, VH extends ViewHolder>, for example:

public class TextItemViewBinder extends ItemViewBinder<TextItem, TextItemViewBinder.TextHolder> {

    static class TextHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    
        private @NonNull final TextView text;

        TextHolder(@NonNull View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
            this.text = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.text);
        }
    }

    @NonNull @Override
    protected TextHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, @NonNull ViewGroup parent) {
        View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_text, parent, false);
        return new TextHolder(root);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull TextHolder holder, @NonNull TextItem textItem) {
        holder.text.setText("hello: " + textItem.text);
        Log.d("demo", "position: " + getPosition(holder));
        Log.d("demo", "adapter: " + getAdapter());
    }
}

Step 3. Just register your types and setup your RecyclerView and List<Object> in your Activity, for example:

public class SampleActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private MultiTypeAdapter adapter;
    private Items items;

    @Override 
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.list);

        adapter = new MultiTypeAdapter();
        adapter.register(TextItem.class, new TextItemViewBinder());
        adapter.register(ImageItem.class, new ImageItemViewBinder());
        adapter.register(RichItem.class, new RichItemViewBinder());
        recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);

        /* Mock the data */
        TextItem textItem = new TextItem("world");
        ImageItem imageItem = new ImageItem(R.mipmap.ic_launcher);
        RichItem richItem = new RichItem("小艾大人赛高", R.mipmap.avatar);

        items = new Items();
        for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
            items.add(textItem);
            items.add(imageItem);
            items.add(richItem);
        }
        adapter.setItems(items);
        adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
    }
}

That's all, you're good to go!
