GenericAdapter for Android RecyclerView

The GenericAdapter is a flexible and reusable Android RecyclerView adapter that simplifies the process of creating adapters for various data types. It offers ViewBinding integration, efficient data updates with DiffUtil, and filtering support.

Features

• Flexibility: Create RecyclerView adapters for different data types with ease.
• ViewBinding Integration: Utilize ViewBinding for type-safe and efficient view management.
• Efficient Data Updates: Benefit from DiffUtil integration for optimized data updates and animations.
• Filtering Support: Easily add filtering functionality to your adapters.
• Customizable: Customize your adapters by defining your own data binding logic and layouts.

Usage

1. Extend the GenericAdapter class: Create your custom adapter by extending GenericAdapter. Implement the required methods, including onBindData and createViewBinding, to specify how your data is displayed.

2. Integrate ViewBinding: Utilize ViewBinding to bind your layout's views efficiently.

3. Submit Data: Use submitFilterableList to submit your data to the adapter. The data will be automatically filtered when needed.

4. Filtering: Access the filter property to perform filtering operations on your data.

// Example usage:
val adapter = MyAdapter(MyDiffCallback())
adapter.submitFilterableList(dataList)
adapter.filter.filter("searchQuery")

Example

Here's an example of how to create an adapter using the GenericAdapter:

class MyAdapter(diffUtil: DiffUtil.ItemCallback<MyData>) :
    GenericAdapter<MyData, MyItemBinding>(diffUtil) {

    override val filter: Filter
        get() = MyFilter()

    override fun createViewBinding(
        inflater: LayoutInflater,
        parent: ViewGroup
    ): MyItemBinding {
        return MyItemBinding.inflate(inflater, parent, false)
    }

    override fun onBindData(binding: MyItemBinding, item: MyData) {
        // Bind your data to the ViewBinding here
        // Example: binding.textView.text = item.name
    }
}
