InfiniteListView

InfiniteListView is a custom Android ListView that gets extended at each time new items are loaded by swiping to the bottom of list. It also supports swipe-to-refresh behavior.

See the app module for the sample usage of InfiniteListView and InfiniteListAdapter.

How it works

Classes

InfiniteListView (extends FrameLayout)

• Includes the following UI components:

  • SwipeRefreshLayout
  • ListView

• Set adapter as follows: infiniteListView.setAdapter(adapter);

  • adapter (InfiniteListAdapter)
    • Extend it to create your own adapter
      • Override its onNewLoadRequired() method to load new items when required (on swipe-to-bottom)
      • Override its onRefresh() method to set what to do on swipe-to-refresh
      • Override its onItemClick(position) method to set what to do on item click
      • Override its onItemLongClick(position) method to set what to do on item long-click

• Includes the following methods:

  • infiniteListView.addNewItem(item); -> adds new item to list
  • infiniteListView.addAll(newItems); -> adds list of new items to list
  • infiniteListView.clearList(); -> clears entire list
  • infiniteListView.startLoading(); -> call this before item loading starts
  • infiniteListView.stopLoading(); -> call this after item loading ends
  • infiniteListView.hasMore(hasMore); -> call this to let the view know whether there is more to load or not

• Custom XML attributes:

  • swipeRefreshIndicatorColor (color)
  • scrollbarVisible (boolean)
  • dividerVisible (boolean)

InfiniteListAdapter (abstract class, extends ArrayAdapter)

• Constructor takes the following params:

  • activity (Activity)
  • itemLayoutRes (int)
    • e.g., R.layout.item_text
  • itemList (ArrayList)

• Includes the following abstract methods:

  • onNewLoadRequired()
  • onRefresh()
  • onItemClick(position)
  • onItemLongClick(position)

How to use

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.ugurcany:InfiniteListView:X.Y.Z'
}

Replace X.Y.Z with the latest release version number.
