RecyclerView + Data Binding Sample

Simple sample

Use LiveData directly with data binding

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

    <data>

        <variable
            name="viewModel"
            type="com.ciandt.recyclerviewbinding.presentation.simple.SimpleViewModel" />
    </data>

    <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recyclerView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            app:items="@{viewModel.items}" /> <!-- Use android data binding to update adapter -->
    </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</layout>
class SimpleViewModel : ViewModel() {

    val items: LiveData<List<String>> =
        MutableLiveData<List<String>>().apply { value = ItemsRepository().getItemsPage() }
}

Simple RecyclerView Setup

class SimpleFragment : Fragment() {

    ...
    
    override fun onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState)

        viewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this)[SimpleViewModel::class.java]

        val layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(context)

        recyclerView.layoutManager = layoutManager
        recyclerView.hasFixedSize()
        recyclerView.adapter = ItemsAdapter()
        recyclerView.addItemDecoration(DividerItemDecoration(context, layoutManager.orientation))

        binding.viewModel = viewModel
    }

}

Endless Scroll sample (accessibility support)

class EndlessFragment : Fragment() {

    ...
    
    override fun onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState)

        viewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this)[EndlessViewModel::class.java]

        val layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(context)

        recyclerView.layoutManager = layoutManager
        recyclerView.hasFixedSize()
        recyclerView.adapter = ItemsAdapter()
        recyclerView.addItemDecoration(DividerItemDecoration(context, layoutManager.orientation))

        // USE EXTENSION TO SIMPLIFY ENDLESS SETUP
        recyclerView.endless { viewModel.fetchItems() }

        // USE EVENT WRAPPER TO NOTIFY CHANGES TO ADAPTER
        //https://bit.ly/2NeeTMP [LiveData with SnackBar, Navigation and other events (the SingleLiveEvent case)]
        viewModel.updateList.subscribe(this) { 
            recyclerView.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
        }

        binding.viewModel = viewModel
    }
}
