How to react to to user scrolling on Accompanist Pager? - android

The Accompanist Pager documentation suggests reacting to page changes as follows :
val pagerState = rememberPagerState()
LaunchedEffect(pagerState) {
// Collect from the pager state a snapshotFlow reading the currentPage
snapshotFlow { pagerState.currentPage }.collect { page ->
AnalyticsService.sendPageSelectedEvent(page)
}
}
VerticalPager(
count = 10,
state = pagerState,
) { page ->
Text(text = "Page: $page")
}
How can we distinguish scrolling to a page from user gesture, and scrolling to a page using animateScrollingToPage() / scrollingToPage() ? I would like to perform a certain action only on user scroll, not on programmatic scroll.

Did you try :
val isScrollInProgressFlow = snapshotFlow { pagerState.isScrollInProgress }

I had a similar problem and I solved it using interactionsSource. No interaction is emitted when automatic scroll happens. But it emits interactions on user actions.
You can also use other interaction source types.
LaunchedEffect(Unit) {
pagerState.interactionSource.interactions
.collect {
if (it is DragInteraction.Start) {
Log.d("test", "User interaction is started")
}
}
}
In my case I had to cancel automatic scroll on user drag. The simplified version looks like this:
LaunchedEffect(Unit) {
val autoscrollJob = launch {
while(true) {
yield() // exit the coroutine if the job is completed
delay(autoScrollDelay)
animateScrollToPage(
page = (currentPage + 1) % pageCount
)
}
}
launch {
interactionSource.interactions
.collect {
if (it is DragInteraction.Start) {
autoscrollJob.cancel()
}
}
}
}

Problem using LaunchedEffect scope in jetpack compose

I have two LaunchedEffect scopes like this :
LaunchedEffect(key1 = mainViewModel.myvlue.value){
mainViewModel.updatemyvalue(1f)
}
LaunchedEffect(key1 = mainViewModel.myvlue.value){
mainViewModel.updatemyvalue(0f)
}
Both are implemented inside this method :
#Composable
fun TabContent( pagerState: PagerState,count:Int,mainViewModel: MainViewModel) {
HorizontalPager(state = pagerState, count = count) { index ->
when (index) {
0 -> {
LaunchedEffect(key1 = mainViewModel.myvlue.value){
mainViewModel.updatemyvalue(1f)
}
SecondScreen(mainViewModel)
}
1 -> {
LaunchedEffect(key1 = mainViewModel.myvalue.value) {
mainViewModel.updatemyvalue(0f)
}
firstScreen(mainViewModel)
}
}
}
}
The problem is that when one of these scopes launches, second one will be automatically called .
I know this is normal that when the key1 value changes scopes will be relaunched . but I
just want them to be called separately when I navigate to their respective page inside HorizontalPager.
As you can see above, they will be called simultaneously when one of the executes.
what should I do ?
You should use the current index below in the way I posted in the attachment
Please test
// Page change callback
LaunchedEffect(pagerState) {
snapshotFlow { pagerState.currentPage }.collect { page ->
when (page) {
0 -> viewModel.updatemyvalue() // First page
1 -> // Second page
else -> // Other pages
}
}
}

Swipe sensitivity for HorizontalPager in Compose

I implemented a simple HorizontalPager which works mostly as expected. The app I develop is for one specific device, a 8" Tablet in landscape mode. At the moment it is required to swipe more than 50% of the screen-width to get to the next/prev page. This is a very long swipe and I would like to reduce that to make changing pages easier...
I played around with fling behavior and tried to manually change pages when the offset changed or to intercept the touchevents...Nothing really lead to the desired behavior.
Since the "problem" seems so simple, I really hope that I have just overseen something. Do you have an idea what I could try?
This solved my problem, you can edit minFlingDistanceDp to change the sensitivity:
HorizontalPager(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
state = pagerState,
count = noOfPages,
flingBehavior = flingBehavior(pagerState = pagerState, noOfPages = noOfPages)
) { page ->
//Content
}
val minFlingDistanceDp = 150.dp
#OptIn(ExperimentalPagerApi::class, dev.chrisbanes.snapper.ExperimentalSnapperApi::class)
#Composable
fun flingBehavior(pagerState: PagerState, noOfPages: Int): FlingBehavior {
var currentPageIndex = remember { pagerState.currentPage }
return PagerDefaults.flingBehavior(
state = pagerState,
snapIndex = { layoutInfo, _, _ ->
val distanceToStartSnap = layoutInfo.distanceToIndexSnap(currentPageIndex)
currentPageIndex = when {
distanceToStartSnap < -(minFlingDistanceDp.value) -> {
(currentPageIndex + 1).coerceAtMost(noOfPages - 1)
}
distanceToStartSnap > minFlingDistanceDp.value -> {
(currentPageIndex - 1).coerceAtLeast(0)
}
else -> {
currentPageIndex
}
}
currentPageIndex
}
)
}

Paging 3 list auto refresh on navigation back in jetpack compose navigation

I am using Jetpack Compose, along with Paging 3 library & Jetpack Navigation. The issue I am facing is I have a LazyList which is fetching data from remote source using paging library.
ViewModel
fun getImages(): Flow<PagingData<ObjectImage>> = Pager(
PagingConfig(PAGE_SIZE, enablePlaceholders = false)
) { DataHome(RANDOM) }.flow.cachedIn(viewModelScope)
HomeView
val images = viewModelHome.getImages().collectAsLazyPagingItems()
LazyColumn {
...
}
Now whats happening is when I navigate to another View using navHostController.navigate() and then press back to get to HomeView... the LazyColumn resets itself & start loading items again from network.
So I am stuck with this issue. I tried manually caching in viewModel variable... though it works but it screws up SwipeRefresh (which stops showing refresh state)
data.apply {
when {
// refresh
loadState.refresh is LoadState.Loading -> {
ItemLoading()
}
// reload
loadState.append is LoadState.Loading -> {...}
// refresh error
loadState.refresh is LoadState.Error -> {...}
// reload error
loadState.append is LoadState.Error -> {...}
}
}
implementation("androidx.paging:paging-runtime-ktx:3.1.0")
implementation("androidx.paging:paging-compose:1.0.0-alpha14")
Is this an issue with PagingLibrary which is still in alpha??
Update 1 (I am not sure if this is a good solution, but I am solving
the swipe refresh issue as follows)
// get images
var images: Flow<PagingData<ObjectImage>> = Pager(PagingConfig(PAGE_SIZE)) {
DataHome(RANDOM)
}.flow.cachedIn(viewModelScope)
// reload items
fun reload(){
images = Pager(PagingConfig(PAGE_SIZE)) {
DataHome(RANDOM)
}.flow.cachedIn(viewModelScope)
}
// and rather than calling .refresh() method on lazy items... I am calling viewModel.reload()
The problem is that you are creating new Pager every time you call getImages(), which is every time your composable recomposes, that's not how it's supposed to be done.
You should make it a val items = Pager(... for the caching to work.
For the screwed up SwipeRefresh, how do you implement it? There is a refresh() method on LazyPagingItems, you should use that.
EDIT: Ok, so based on the coments and edits to your question:
In your viewmodel, do as I suggested before:
val items = Pager( // define your pager here
Your composable can then look like this:
#Composable
fun Screen() {
val items = viewModel.items.collectAsLazyPagingItems()
val state = rememberSwipeRefreshState(
isRefreshing = items.loadState.refresh is LoadState.Loading,
)
SwipeRefresh(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
state = state,
// use the provided LazyPagingItems.refresh() method,
// no need for custom solutions
onRefresh = { items.refresh() }
) {
LazyColumn(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
) {
// display the items only when loadState.refresh is not loading,
// as you wish
if (items.loadState.refresh is LoadState.NotLoading) {
items(items) {
if (it != null) {
Text(
modifier = Modifier.padding(16.dp),
text = it,
)
}
}
// you can also add item for LoadState.Error, anything you want
if (items.loadState.append is LoadState.Loading) {
item {
Box(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth()) {
CircularProgressIndicator(
modifier = Modifier
.align(Alignment.Center)
.padding(16.dp)
)
}
}
}
}
// if the loadState.refresh is Loading,
// display just single loading item,
// or nothing at all (SwipeRefresh already indicates
// refresh is in progress)
else if (items.loadState.refresh is LoadState.Loading) {
item {
Box(modifier = Modifier.fillParentMaxSize()) {
Text(
text = "Refreshing",
modifier = Modifier.align(Alignment.Center))
}
}
}
}
}
}

Execute LaunchedEffect only when an item is visible in LazyColumn

I am using a LazyColumn and there are several items in which one of item has a LaunchedEffect which needs to be executed only when the view is visible.
On the other hand, it gets executed as soon as the LazyColumn is rendered.
How to check whether the item is visible and only then execute the LaunchedEffect?
LazyColumn() {
item {Composable1()}
item {Composable2()}
item {Composable3()}
.
.
.
.
item {Composable19()}
item {Composable20()}
}
Lets assume that Composable19() has a Pager implementation and I want to start auto scrolling once the view is visible by using the LaunchedEffect in this way. The auto scroll is happening even though the view is not visible.
LaunchedEffect(pagerState.currentPage) {
//auto scroll logic
}
LazyScrollState has the firstVisibleItemIndex property. The last visible item can be determined by:
val lastIndex: Int? = lazyListState.layoutInfo.visibleItemsInfo.lastOrNull()?.index
Then you test to see if the list item index you are interested is within the range. For example if you want your effect to launch when list item 5 becomes visible:
val lastIndex: Int = lazyListState.layoutInfo.visibleItemsInfo.lastOrNull()?.index ?: -1
LaunchedEffect((lazyListState.firstVisibleItemIndex > 5 ) && ( 5 < lastIndex)) {
Log.i("First visible item", lazyListState.firstVisibleItemIndex.toString())
// Launch your auto scrolling here...
}
LazyColumn(state = lazyListState) {
}
NOTE: For this to work, DON'T use rememberLazyListState. Instead, create an instance of LazyListState in your viewmodel and pass it to your composable.
If you want to know if an item is visible you can use the LazyListState#layoutInfo that contains information about the visible items.
Since you are reading the state you should use derivedStateOf to avoid redundant recompositions and poor performance
To know if the LazyColumn contains an item you can use:
#Composable
private fun LazyListState.containItem(index:Int): Boolean {
return remember(this) {
derivedStateOf {
val visibleItemsInfo = layoutInfo.visibleItemsInfo
if (layoutInfo.totalItemsCount == 0) {
false
} else {
visibleItemsInfo.toMutableList().map { it.index }.contains(index)
}
}
}.value
}
Then you can use:
val state = rememberLazyListState()
LazyColumn(state = state){
//items
}
//Check for a specific item
var isItem2Visible = state.containItem(index = 2)
LaunchedEffect( isItem2Visible){
if (isItem2Visible)
//... item visible do something
else
//... item not visible do something
}
If you want to know all the visible items you can use something similar:
#Composable
private fun LazyListState.visibleItems(): List<Int> {
return remember(this) {
derivedStateOf {
val visibleItemsInfo = layoutInfo.visibleItemsInfo
if (layoutInfo.totalItemsCount == 0) {
emptyList()
} else {
visibleItemsInfo.toMutableList().map { it.index }
}
}
}.value
}

Sticky headers with paging library in Jetpack Compose

I'm currently playing around with the new Jetpack compose UI toolkit and I like it a lot. One thing I could not figure out is how to use stickyHeaders in a LazyColumn which is populated by the paging library. The non-paging example from the documentation is:
val grouped = contacts.groupBy { it.firstName[0] }
fun ContactsList(grouped: Map<Char, List<Contact>>) {
LazyColumn {
grouped.forEach { (initial, contactsForInitial) ->
stickyHeader {
CharacterHeader(initial)
}
items(contactsForInitial) { contact ->
ContactListItem(contact)
}
}
}
}
Since I'm using the paging library I cannot use the groupedBy so I tried to use the insertSeparators function on PagingData and insert/create the headers myself like this (please ignore the legacy Date code, it's just for testing):
// On my flow
.insertSeparators { before, after ->
when {
before == null -> ListItem.HeaderItem(after?.workout?.time ?: 0)
after == null -> ListItem.HeaderItem(before.workout.time)
(Date(before.workout.time).day != Date(after.workout.time).day) ->
ListItem.HeaderItem(before.workout.time)
// Return null to avoid adding a separator between two items.
else -> null
}
}
// In my composeable
LazyColumn {
items(workoutItems) {
when(it) {
is ListItem.HeaderItem -> this#LazyColumn.stickyHeader { Header(it) }
is ListItem.SongItem -> WorkoutItem(it)
}
}
}
But this produces a list of all my items and the header items are appended at the end. Any ideas what is the right way to use the stickyHeader function when using the paging library?
I got it to work by looking into the source code of the items function: You must not call stickyHeader within the items function. No need to modify the PagingData flow at all. Just use peek to get the next item without triggering a reload and then layout it:
LazyColumn {
val itemCount = workoutItems.itemCount
var lastWorkout: Workout? = null
for(index in 0 until itemCount) {
val workout = workoutItems.peek(index)
if(lastWorkout?.time != workout?.time) stickyHeader { Header(workout) }
item { WorkoutItem(workoutItems.getAsState(index).value) } // triggers reload
lastWorkout = workout
}
}
I believe the issue in your code was that you were calling this#LazyColumn from inside an LazyItemScope.
I experimented too with insertSeparators and reached this working LazyColumn code:
LazyColumn {
for (index in 0 until photos.itemCount) {
when (val peekData = photos.peek(index)) {
is String? -> stickyHeader {
Text(
text = (photos.getAsState(index).value as? String).orEmpty(),
)
}
is Photo? -> item(key = { peekData?.id }) {
val photo = photos.getAsState(index).value as? Photo
...
}
}
}
}
