Android RecyclerView OnScroll Show hide Toolbar

In the previous series of tutorial we have seen implementation of recyclerview , In this tutorial we will how to show hide toolbar on scrolling reyclerview , i.e on scroll-up hide toolbar 

and scroll down show toolbar .

Here we will use CoordinatorLayout as the parent layout and place toolbar and recyclerview as child view.  and set the scroll flag and behavior .

CoordinatorLayout

CoordinatorLayout is a super-powered FrameLayout , CoordinatorLayout is intended for two primary use cases.

• As a top-level application decor layout .
• As a container for a specific interaction with one or more child views .

XML Layout

1.  Add CoordinatorLayout as parent or root layout 
2.  Add Toolbar and RecyclerView as child view to CoordinatorLayout

Specifying Scroll Behaviors  

1. For Toolbar widget set the layout scroll flag  

       app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"

2. For RecyclerView Set the layout behavior 

    app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"

file : activity_main.xml

<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout 
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">

        <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways" />

    </com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
    
    <androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recyclerView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:paddingTop="6dp"
        app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />
    
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Setting Up RecyclerView

1 XML Layout for RecyclerView Row Item 

file : row_item.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/txt"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:paddingLeft="8dp"
    android:paddingTop="16dp"
    android:paddingRight="8dp"
    android:paddingBottom="16dp"
    android:textSize="20sp" />

2. Data class

file : Model.kt

package com.tutorialsbuzz.recyclerviewtoolbarshowhide

data class Model(val name: String) {}

3 ViewHolder Adapter for RecyclerView

file : CustomAdapter.kt

package com.tutorialsbuzz.recyclerviewtoolbarshowhide

import android.content.Context
import android.view.LayoutInflater
import android.view.View
import android.view.ViewGroup
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.row_item.view.*

class CustomAdapter(val modelList: List<Model>, val context: Context) :
    RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>() {

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder, position: Int) {
        (holder as ViewHolder).bind(modelList.get(position));
    }

    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
        val layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context)
        return ViewHolder(layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.row_item, parent, false))
    }

    override fun getItemCount(): Int {
        return modelList.size
    }

    inner class ViewHolder(itemView: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(itemView) {
        fun bind(model: Model): Unit {
            itemView.txt.text = model.name
        }
    }

}

Activity

In MainActivity we will initialize and set adapter to reyclerview .

file : MainActivity.kt

package com.tutorialsbuzz.recyclerviewtoolbarshowhide

import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
import java.util.*

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        setSupportActionBar(toolbar)

        recyclerView.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this, RecyclerView.VERTICAL, false)
        recyclerView.addItemDecoration(SimpleDividerItemDecoration(this))

        val adapter = CustomAdapter(getCountries(), this)
        recyclerView.adapter = adapter;
    }

    private fun getCountries(): MutableList<Model> {
        val mdList = mutableListOf<Model>()
        for (countryISO in Locale.getISOCountries()) {
            val locale = Locale("", countryISO)
            if (!locale.displayCountry.isEmpty()) {
                mdList.add(Model(locale.displayCountry + "  " + counrtyFlag(countryISO)))
            }
        }
        return mdList
    }

    private fun counrtyFlag(countryCode: String): String {
        val flagOffset = 0x1F1E6
        val asciiOffset = 0x41
        val firstChar = Character.codePointAt(countryCode, 0) - asciiOffset + flagOffset
        val secondChar = Character.codePointAt(countryCode, 1) - asciiOffset + flagOffset
        val flag =
            (String(Character.toChars(firstChar)) + String(Character.toChars(secondChar)))

        return flag
    }

}
