I found the RecyclerView filtering code via SearchView. How can I change this code for a button? When the button is pressed, the corresponding RecyclerView must be filtered. All codes:
public void updateList(List<DataHolder> list){
displayedList = list;
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
searchField.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
// filter your list from your input
filter(s.toString());
//you can use runnable postDelayed like 500 ms to delay search text
}
});
void filter(String text){
List<DataHolder> temp = new ArrayList();
for(DataHolder d: displayedList){
//or use .equal(text) with you want equal match
//use .toLowerCase() for better matches
if(d.getEnglish().contains(text)){
temp.add(d);
}
}
//update recyclerview
disp_adapter.updateList(temp);
}
Thank you!
>Solution :
Add a button to the layout and setOnClickListener in java/kotlin file and on click of button filter the list. Like what you were doing earlier in the afterTextChanged() ( calling filter(s.toString()); )that needs to be done in setOnClickListener()
