I am making a project with Jetpack Compose. I want to display comments like there are in Instagram. There is an array that contains comments.
This is a code used to display comments:
val i : Int
for(i in 1..user.count) {
Row(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.padding(10.dp),
horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.SpaceBetween
) {
Row(
verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically
) {
Image1(
painter = painterResource(id = user.pp),
contentDescription = "PP",
modifier = Modifier
.clip(CircleShape)
.size(50.dp)
)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
Column() {
Row() {
Text(text = user.name, color = Color.Black, fontSize = 20.sp)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
}
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
Text(text = "Public", color = Color.DarkGray, fontSize = 13.sp)
}
}
IconButton(onClick = { /*TODO*/ }) {
Icon(
painter = painterResource(id = R.drawable.ic_baseline_more_vert_24),
contentDescription = "More"
)
}
}
Row() {
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
Text(
text = user.c[i-1],
color = Color.Black,
fontSize = 16.sp,
modifier = Modifier.padding(end = 10.dp)
)
}
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(10.dp))
Row() {
var isClicked by remember {
mutableStateOf(false)
}
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
Icon(
painter = painterResource(
id =
if (!isClicked) R.drawable.like_in_comments else R.drawable.like
),
contentDescription = "Like",
tint = Color.Blue,
modifier = Modifier
.size(25.dp)
.clickable { isClicked = !isClicked }
)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.width(10.dp))
Text(
text = "Like",
color = Color.DarkGray,
fontSize = 16.sp,
)
}
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(10.dp))
Divider()
}
I want to make it scrollable. I can use LazyRow. When I use it, I get some errors. How do I implement it? Please help.
You can make an ordinary Row scrollable by supplying its Modifier.horizontalScroll() with a scroll state like the following
val scrollState = rememberScrollState()
Row (modifier = Modifier.horizontalScroll(scrollState)) {
...
}
But for a simple LazyRow without having a unique key, you don't need to iterate each item via a loop construct (e.g a for-loop), you just have to simply call items and pass the list.
val itemList = listOf("Item1", "Item2")
LazyRow {
items(itemList) { item ->
// your composable here
}
}
For a LazyRow with a unique key (assuming you have a class with an "id" attribute)
val people = listOf(Person(1, "person1"), Person(2, "person2"))
LazyRow {
items(items = people, key = { item -> person.id }) { person->
// your composable here
}
}
Trying to implement a feature where the user is able to select a way to sort the list of Breweries when a certain item in a dropdown menu is selected (Name, City, Address). I am having trouble figuring out what I am doing wrong. Whenever I select example "Name" in the dropdown menu, the list of breweries does not sort. I am new at this so any advice will really help. Thank you!

It's really difficult to track this much code especially on my 13 inch screen.
You should move your sort logic to ViewModel or useCase and create a sort function you can call on user interaction such as viewmodel.sort(sortType) and update value of one MutableState with new or use mutableStateListOf and update with sorted list.
Sorting is business logic and i would do it in a class that doesn't contain any Android related dependencies, i use MVI or MVVM so my preference is a UseCase class which i can unit test sorting with any type and a sample list and desired outcomes.
You can do it with Comparatorand Modifier.animateItemPlacement() so it would look even nicer!
I will post an example from Google so you can understand the logic:

You have tons of codes and I only see lists, so its hard to guess what's going on, but based on
the list of breweries does not sort
I would advice creating a very simple working app with 1 data class 1 Viewmodel 1 Screen with a LazyColumn and 1 Button.
Consider this:
Your data class
data class Person(
val id: Int,
val name: String
)
Your ViewModel
class MyViewModel {
val peopleList = mutableStateListOf<Person>() // SnapshotStateList
fun onSortButtonClicked() {
// do your sorting logic here
// update your mutable`State`List
}
}
Your Composable Screen
#Composable // I just put the view model as an argument, don't follow it you don't need to
fun MyScreen(viewModel: MyViewModel) {
val myList = viewModel.peopleList
LazyColumn {
items(items = myList, key = { person -> person.id }) { person ->
//.. your item composable //
}
Button(
onClick = { viewModel.onSortButtonClicked() }
)
}
}
It works but its not advisable to use MutableList inside a State or mutableState as any changes you make on its elements won't trigger re-composition, your best way to do it is to manually copy the entire List and create a new one which is again not advisable, thats why SnapshotStateList<T> or mutableStateListOf<T> is not only recommended but the only way to deal with lists in Jetpack Compose development efficiently.
Using SnapshotStateList, any updates (in my experience) such as deleting an element, modifying by doing .copy(..) and re-inserting to the same index will guarantee a re-composition on a Composable that reads that element, in the case of the "working sample code", if I change the name of a person in the SnapshotStateList like peopleList[index] = person.copy(name="Mr Person"), the item composable that reads that person object will re-compose. As for your Sorting problem, I haven't tried it yet so I'm not sure, but I think the list will sort if you simply perform a sorting operation in the SnapshotStateList.
Take everything I said with the grain of salt, though I'm confident with the usage of the SnapshotStateList for the "working sample code", however there are tons of nuances and things happening under the hood that I'm careful not to just simply throw around, but as you said
I am new at this
So am I. I'm confident this is a good starting point dealing with collections/list in jetpack compose.
I was deveoping an Kotlin Multiplatform app, where I develop the UI using Jetpack Compose framework, where I recover some data from network using graphql, to keep it into a local database build with SQLDelight.
My poblem comes when I try to implement a remove operation into my localDatabase, due to the LazyColumn component doesn't update after remove some item.
I saw there are some solution using SnapshotStateList, but I don't see how to implemented, and I try to do it using a mutableState of a boolean variable, which tells me if there some change which need to be update, but the Composable doesn't recompose neither.
this is my main component where I added the list:

viewModel.updateList.value = true
}
}
}) },
onDismiss = { openDialog.value = false },
textDescription = "Would you like to remove ${characterModel.name} from your characters?",
textTittle = "Remove"
)
}
Row(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.clickable(onClick = { characterSelected(characterModel) })
.padding(vertical = 8.dp, horizontal = 16.dp)
.combinedClickable(
onLongClick = {
openDialog.value = true
},
onClick = {
navController.navigate(Screens.CharacterDetailsScreen.route + "/${characterModel.id}")
}
),
verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically
){
AsyncImage(
model = characterModel.image,
contentDescription = characterModel.name,
contentScale = ContentScale.Fit,
modifier = Modifier
.size(60.dp)
.clip(CircleShape)
)
Column(modifier = Modifier.weight(1F)) {
Text(
text = characterModel.name,
style = MaterialTheme.typography.h5,
fontWeight = FontWeight.Bold
)
CompositionLocalProvider(LocalContentAlpha provides ContentAlpha.high) {
Text(
text = "Seen in ${characterModel.numberEpisodes} episodes, most frequently in ${characterModel.location}",
style = MaterialTheme.typography.body1,
fontWeight = FontWeight.Thin
)
}
}
}
Divider()
}
So if you knows some way to force to recompose a composable, (which I think is not possible), or a working solution using the SnapShotStateList, and can share, take thanks in advance !
I have a shopping list item composable that is not taking up the entire width of the parent, as you can see below with the red border. I want it to be flush against the parent's edge. And why is there some space or padding just before the checkbox? What needs to be modified?

You set a contentPadding in your LazyColumn that is responsible for the spaces. Remove it, or set it to zero.
LazyColumn(
contentPadding = PaddingValues(
vertical = 8.dp,
horizontal = 0.dp
)
)
The padding around the Checkbox depends on the minimumTouchTargetSize defined when the onClick is not null with a hardcoded value of 48.dp.
You can override it using:
CompositionLocalProvider(
LocalMinimumTouchTargetEnforcement provides false,
) {
Checkbox(
modifier = Modifier.padding(0.dp), //4.dp
checked = false,
onCheckedChange = {}
)
}
but it is not the best choice in term of accessibility.
.
The space around the Row depends on the contentPadding defined in the LazyColumn.
