    RecyclerView is works just like listview but more well organised, felexible to customize and optimize to work and in rendering the view of large data set. So in this tutorial we will see how to add items Dynamically in RecyclerView.

     

     

    For that first, I have created recycler view in which items are added and removed Dynamically. In this app we can add items in Recyclerview and when we click on the item in RecyclerView it will be deleted based on the positon of the item.

    Step(1)-I have added first RecyclerView, CardView and Design dependency to Grandle file.
     

         compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'
         compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.+'
           compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:21.0.+'

     

    Step(2)-activity_main xml.layout-
     

    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:padding="16dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        tools:context=".MainActivity">
        <EditText
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:hint="Title"
            android:id="@+id/etTitle" />
        <EditText
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:hint="Description"
            android:id="@+id/etDescription" />
        <Button
            android:id="@+id/btnAddItem"
            android:text="Add Item"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
            android:scrollbars="vertical"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:background="#dbfffe" />
    </LinearLayout>

    Step(3)-Created a new row.xml layout-

    <android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_margin="8dp"
        android:id="@+id/card_view"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
        <LinearLayout
            android:orientation="vertical"
            android:id="@+id/mainLayout"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content">
            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/txtTitle"
                android:padding="12dp"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:textColor="@android:color/black"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/txtDescription"
                android:padding="12dp"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:textColor="@android:color/black"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/crossImage"
                android:layout_width="65dp"
                android:layout_height="65dp"
                android:visibility="visible"
                android:layout_marginLeft="285dp"
                android:paddingLeft="10dp"
                android:background="@drawable/cross" />
        </LinearLayout>
    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>


    Step(4)MainActivity-

    public class MainActivity extends Activity implements RemoveClickListner{
        private RecyclerView mRecyclerView;
        private RecyclerAdapter mRecyclerAdapter;
        private RecyclerView.LayoutManager mLayoutManager;
        Button btnAddItem;
        ArrayList<RecyclerData> myList = new ArrayList<>();
        EditText etTitle, etDescription;
        String title = "",description = "";
        ImageView crossImage;
        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
            mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) findViewById(R.id.recycler_view);
            mRecyclerAdapter = new RecyclerAdapter(myList,this);
            final LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
            layoutManager.setOrientation(LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL);
            mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
            mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mRecyclerAdapter);
            etTitle = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etTitle);
            etDescription = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etDescription);
            btnAddItem = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnAddItem);
            btnAddItem.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    title = etTitle.getText().toString();
                    description = etDescription.getText().toString();
                    if (title.matches("")) {
                        Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), "You did not enter a Title", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        return;
                    }
                    if (description.matches("")) {
                        Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), "You did not enter a description", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        return;
                    }
                    
    
                    RecyclerData mLog = new RecyclerData();
                    mLog.setTitle(title);
                    mLog.setDescription(description);
                    myList.add(mLog);
                    mRecyclerAdapter.notifyData(myList);
                    etTitle.setText("");
                    etDescription.setText("");
                }
            });
        }
    
        @Override
        public void OnRemoveClick(int index) {
            myList.remove(index);
            mRecyclerAdapter.notifyData(myList);
        }
    }

    Step(5)-Created a new RecyclerData class

    public class RecyclerData {
    
    
            String title;
            String description;
            RecyclerView data;
            public String getTitle() {
                return title;
            }
            public void setTitle(String title) {
                this.title = title;
            }
            public String getDescription() {
                return description;
            }
            public void setDescription(String description) {
                this.description = description;
            }
            public void setCrossImage(ImageView crossImage){
                setCrossImage(crossImage);
            }
        }

        
    Step(6)-Created a new RecyclerAdapter class-

    public class RecyclerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerAdapter.RecyclerItemViewHolder> {
        private ArrayList<RecyclerData> myList;
    
        int mLastPosition = 0;
        private RemoveClickListner mListner;
    
    
        public RecyclerAdapter(ArrayList<RecyclerData> myList,RemoveClickListner listner) {
            this.myList = myList;
    
            mListner=listner;
        }
    
        public RecyclerItemViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    
            View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.row, parent, false);
            RecyclerItemViewHolder holder = new RecyclerItemViewHolder(view);
            return holder;
        }
    
        @Override
        public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerItemViewHolder holder, final int position) {
    
    
            Log.d("onBindViewHoler ", myList.size() + "");
            holder.etTitleTextView.setText(myList.get(position).getTitle());
            holder.etDescriptionTextView.setText(myList.get(position).getDescription());
            holder.crossImage.setImageResource(R.drawable.cross);
            mLastPosition =position;
        }
    
        @Override
        public int getItemCount() {
            return(null != myList?myList.size():0);
        }
    
        public void notifyData(ArrayList<RecyclerData> myList) {
            Log.d("notifyData ", myList.size() + "");
            this.myList = myList;
            notifyDataSetChanged();
        }
    
        public class RecyclerItemViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    
    
            private final TextView etTitleTextView;
            private final TextView etDescriptionTextView;
            private LinearLayout mainLayout;
            public ImageView crossImage;
    
            public RecyclerItemViewHolder(final View parent) {
                super(parent);
                etTitleTextView = (TextView) parent.findViewById(R.id.txtTitle);
                etDescriptionTextView = (TextView) parent.findViewById(R.id.txtDescription);
                crossImage = (ImageView) parent.findViewById(R.id.crossImage);
                mainLayout = (LinearLayout) parent.findViewById(R.id.mainLayout);
                mainLayout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View v) {
                        Toast.makeText(itemView.getContext(), "Position:" + Integer.toString(getPosition()), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    
                    }
                });
    
                crossImage.setOnClickListener(new AdapterView.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View view) {
                        mListner.OnRemoveClick(getAdapterPosition()
                        );
                    }
                });
            }
    
    
        }
            }

     

    Step(7)-Created a RemoveClickListner interface -
     

    public interface RemoveClickListner {
        void OnRemoveClick(int index);
    }
