How to use TabLayout with ViewPager2

SAMPLE CODE

Use below dependencies

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0-alpha08'
implementation 'androidx.viewpager2:viewpager2:1.0.0-beta02'

SAMPLE CODE

XMl layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

    </com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>

    <androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
            android:id="@+id/viewpager"

            app:layout_anchorGravity="bottom"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
    />


</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Activity

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
import com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayoutMediator

import com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout


class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

//        setSupportActionBar(toolbar)
        viewpager.adapter = AppViewPagerAdapter(supportFragmentManager, lifecycle)

        TabLayoutMediator(tabs, viewpager, object : TabLayoutMediator.OnConfigureTabCallback {
            override fun onConfigureTab(tab: TabLayout.Tab, position: Int) {
                // Styling each tab here
                tab.text = "Tab $position"
            }
        }).attach()


    }
}

OUTPUT

TabLayout with ViewPager2

From Docs

ViewPager2

New features

  • Right-to-left (RTL) layout support
  • Vertical orientation support
  • notifyDataSetChanged fully functional

API changes

  • FragmentStateAdapter replaces FragmentStatePagerAdapter
  • RecyclerView.Adapter replaces PagerAdapter
  • registerOnPageChangeCallback replaces addPageChangeListener

SAMPLE CODE

add the latest dependencies for ViewPager2

implementation 'androidx.viewpager2:viewpager2:1.0.0-alpha01'

layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2
        android:id="@+id/view_pager"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

</LinearLayout>

activity

import android.os.Bundle;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2;

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ViewPager2 myViewPager2;
    MyAdapter MyAdapter;
    private ArrayList<String> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);

        myViewPager2 = findViewById(R.id.view_pager);

        arrayList.add("Item 1");
        arrayList.add("Item 2");
        arrayList.add("Item 3");
        arrayList.add("Item 4");
        arrayList.add("Item 5");

        MyAdapter = new MyAdapter(this, arrayList);


        myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_VERTICAL);

        myViewPager2.setAdapter(MyAdapter);
    }
}

MyAdapter

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;
import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView;

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.MyViewHolder> {

    private Context context;
    private ArrayList<String> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();

    public MyAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<String> arrayList) {
        this.context = context;
        this.arrayList = arrayList;
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View view = LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.list_item, parent, false);
        return new MyViewHolder(view);
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull MyViewHolder holder, int position) {
        holder.tvName.setText(arrayList.get(position));
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return arrayList.size();
    }

    public class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
        TextView tvName;

        public MyViewHolder(@NonNull View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
            tvName = itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvName);
        }
    }
}

New features

now we need to use ViewPager2.OnPageChangeCallback() to get Swipe event of ViewPager2

SAMPLE CODE

    myViewPager2.registerOnPageChangeCallback(new ViewPager2.OnPageChangeCallback() {
        @Override
        public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) {
            super.onPageScrolled(position, positionOffset, positionOffsetPixels);
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageSelected(int position) {
            super.onPageSelected(position);

            Log.e("Selected_Page", String.valueOf(position));
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {
            super.onPageScrollStateChanged(state);
        }
    });

we can set Orientation using myViewPager2.setOrientation()

SAMPLE CODE

For HORIZONTAL Orientation use 

myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL);

For VERTICAL Orientation use 

myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_VERTICAL);

We can use notifyDataSetChanged same as we are using in RecyclerView.Adapter

SAMPLE CODE to add new item

    btnAdd.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            arrayList.add("New ITEM ADDED");
            MyAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
        }
    });

SAMPLE CODE to remove new item

    btnRemove.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            arrayList.remove(3);
            MyAdapter.notifyItemRemoved(3);
        }
    });

UPDATE

Try this if you want to use Fragment with ViewPager2

First create a ViewPagerFragmentAdapter class which extends FragmentStateAdapter

import java.util.ArrayList;
import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment;
import androidx.fragment.app.FragmentManager;
import androidx.viewpager2.adapter.FragmentStateAdapter;

public class ViewPagerFragmentAdapter extends FragmentStateAdapter {

    private ArrayList<Fragment> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();

    public ViewPagerFragmentAdapter(@NonNull FragmentManager fragmentManager) {
        super(fragmentManager);
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(int position) {
        return arrayList.get(position);
    }

    public void addFragment(Fragment fragment) {
        arrayList.add(fragment);
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return arrayList.size();
    }
}

Now use like this in your activity 

import androidx.annotation.Nullable;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2;
import neel.com.bottomappbar.R;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ViewPager2 myViewPager2;
    ViewPagerFragmentAdapter myAdapter;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        myViewPager2 = findViewById(R.id.view_pager);

        myAdapter = new ViewPagerFragmentAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());

        // add Fragments in your ViewPagerFragmentAdapter class
        myAdapter.addFragment(new FragmentOne());
        myAdapter.addFragment(new Fragmenttwo());
        myAdapter.addFragment(new FragmentThree());

        // set Orientation in your ViewPager2
        myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_VERTICAL);

        myViewPager2.setAdapter(myAdapter);

    }

}

  • ViewPager2 under the Hood
  • Hands on With ViewPager2

UPDATE 2

Version 1.0.0-alpha02

New features

  • Ability to disable user input (setUserInputEnabled, isUserInputEnabled)

API changes

  • ViewPager2 class final

Bug fixes

  • FragmentStateAdapter stability fixes

SAMPLE CODE to disable swiping in viewpager2

myViewPager2.setUserInputEnabled(false);// SAMPLE CODE to disable swiping in viewpager2


myViewPager2.setUserInputEnabled(true);//SAMPLE CODE to enable swiping in viewpager2

UPDATE 3

Version 1.0.0-alpha03

New features

  • Ability to programmatically scroll ViewPager2: fakeDragBy(offsetPx).

API changes

  • FragmentStateAdapter now requires a Lifecycle object. Two utility constructors added to obtain it from the host FragmentActivity or the host Fragment

SAMPLE CODE

ViewPagerFragmentAdapter

import java.util.ArrayList;
import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment;
import androidx.fragment.app.FragmentManager;
import androidx.lifecycle.Lifecycle;
import androidx.viewpager2.adapter.FragmentStateAdapter;

public class ViewPagerFragmentAdapter extends FragmentStateAdapter {

    private ArrayList<Fragment> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();


    public ViewPagerFragmentAdapter(@NonNull FragmentManager fragmentManager, @NonNull Lifecycle lifecycle) {
        super(fragmentManager, lifecycle);
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(int position) {
        return arrayList.get(position);
    }

    public void addFragment(Fragment fragment) {
        arrayList.add(fragment);
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return arrayList.size();
    }
}

MainActivity code

import android.os.Bundle;
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2;
import neel.com.bottomappbar.R;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ViewPager2 myViewPager2;
    ViewPagerFragmentAdapter myAdapter;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        myViewPager2=findViewById(R.id.view_pager);
        myAdapter = new ViewPagerFragmentAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), getLifecycle());

        // add Fragments in your ViewPagerFragmentAdapter class
        myAdapter.addFragment(new FragmentOne());
        myAdapter.addFragment(new Fragmenttwo());
        myAdapter.addFragment(new FragmentThree());

        myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_VERTICAL);

        myViewPager2.setAdapter(myAdapter);
    }
}

UPDATE 4

Version 1.0.0-alpha05
New features

  • ItemDecorator introduced with a behaviour consistent with RecyclerView.
  • MarginPageTransformer introduced to provide an ability to create space between pages (outside of page inset).
  • CompositePageTransformer introduced to provide an ability to combine multiple PageTransformers

API changes

  • FragmentStateAdapter#getItem method renamed to FragmentStateAdapter#createFragment – previous method name has proven to be a source of bugs in the past.
  • OFFSCREEN_PAGE_LIMIT_DEFAULT value changed from 0 to -1. No need for a client code change if the OFFSCREEN_PAGE_LIMIT_DEFAULTconstant used.

SAMPLE CODE

Activity code

import androidx.annotation.NonNull;
import androidx.annotation.Nullable;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment;
import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView;
import androidx.viewpager2.widget.MarginPageTransformer;
import androidx.viewpager2.widget.ViewPager2;
import neel.com.bottomappbar.R;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ViewPager2 myViewPager2;
    ViewPagerFragmentAdapter myAdapter;
    private ArrayList<Fragment> arrayList = new ArrayList<>();

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        myViewPager2 = findViewById(R.id.myViewPager2);

        // add Fragments in your ViewPagerFragmentAdapter class
        arrayList.add(new FragmentOne());
        arrayList.add(new Fragmenttwo());
        arrayList.add(new FragmentThree());

        myAdapter = new ViewPagerFragmentAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), getLifecycle());
        // set Orientation in your ViewPager2
        myViewPager2.setOrientation(ViewPager2.ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL);

        myViewPager2.setAdapter(myAdapter);

        myViewPager2.setPageTransformer(new MarginPageTransformer(1500));


    }
}
