Create fragment in viewpager adapter when tab selected

There are two fragments inside viewPager. When the main fragment load the location permission code on the second fragment that work. Want that fragmen work when click the second tab. So I think I need to create this fragment when selected second tab. How can detect and do this?
OurHospitalFragment.kt
viewPager2OurHospital.adapter = adapter
viewPager2OurHospital.offscreenPageLimit = 1
TabLayoutMediator(tabLayoutOurHospital, viewPager2OurHospital) { tab, position ->
when (position) {
0 -> tab.text = getString(R.string.list)
1 -> tab.text = getString(R.string.map)
}
}.attach()
tabLayoutOurHospital.addOnTabSelectedListener(object : TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener {
override fun onTabSelected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
tab?.let {
viewPager2OurHospital.isUserInputEnabled = tab.position != 1
}
}
override fun onTabUnselected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
}
override fun onTabReselected(tab: TabLayout.Tab?) {
}
})
OurHospitalASMViewPagerAdapter.kt
class OurHospitalViewPagerAdapter(fragmentManager: FragmentManager, lifecycle: Lifecycle) :
FragmentStateAdapter(fragmentManager, lifecycle) {
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return 2
}
override fun createFragment(position: Int): Fragment {
return when (position) {
0 -> HospitalListFragment()
1 -> HospitalMapFragment()
else -> Fragment()
}
}
}

I wrote this code line:
viewPager2OurHospital.offscreenPageLimit = ViewPager2.OFFSCREEN_PAGE_LIMIT_DEFAULT
instead of this:
viewPager2OurHospital.offscreenPageLimit = 1
and I get it what I want.

Android viewpager2 tab layout with FragmentStateAdapter

I am using ViewPager2 with Tab Layout. Here is my MainFragment code -
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
binding.viewPager.adapter = MyPagerAdapter(requireActivity())
TabLayoutMediator(
binding.tabLayout, binding.viewPager
) { tab, position ->
binding.viewPager.setCurrentItem(0, true)
when (position) {
0 -> tab.text = “Tab A”
1 -> tab.text = “Tab B”
}
}.attach()
}
private class MyPagerAdapter(fragmentActivity: FragmentActivity) :
FragmentStateAdapter(fragmentActivity) {
private val items = 2
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return items
}
override fun createFragment(position: Int): Fragment = when (position) {
0 -> FragmentA()
1 -> FragmentB()
else -> FragmentA()
}
}
I have 2 questions here -
override fun createFragment(position: Int): Fragment creates new instance of child fragments every time the MainFragment view is created. Is there no way to re-use an already existing instance of child fragment?
In my Navigation graph, I have the MainFragment and its children FragmentA and FragmentB. Why cant I use the Navigation action to open children from its parent? If yes, override fun createFragment(position: Int): Fragment needs a Fragment to be returned and findNavController().navigate() does not return anything. How do I do this?

you can follow this sample code, may this will help you
class TvShowsFragment : Fragment(R.layout.tvshows_fragment) {
private var _binding: TvshowsFragmentBinding? = null
private val binding get() = _binding!!
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
_binding = TvshowsFragmentBinding.bind(view)
setUpViewPager()
setHasOptionsMenu(true)
}
private fun setUpViewPager() {
val viewPager = binding.vpTvShows
val tab = binding.tlTvShows
val adapterTv = TvAdapter(this)
viewPager.adapter = adapterTv
TabLayoutMediator(tab, viewPager) { tabText, position ->
tabText.text = when (position) {
0 -> getString(R.string.title_tvAiringToday)
1 -> getString(R.string.title_tvOnTheAir)
2 -> getString(R.string.title_popular)
3 -> getString(R.string.title_topRated)
else -> getString(R.string.title_tvAiringToday)
}
}.attach()
}
private inner class TvAdapter(fm: Fragment) : FragmentStateAdapter(fm) {
override fun getItemCount(): Int = 4
override fun createFragment(position: Int): Fragment {
return when (position) {
0 -> TvAiringTodayFragment()
1 -> TvOnTheAirFragment()
2 -> TvPopularFragment()
3 -> TvTopRatedFragment()
else -> TvAiringTodayFragment()
}
}
}

In tab layout fragments not showing their layout in androidX

I have a tab layout in which I have included five fragments, but when i click on tabs, the fragments layout is not showed. In my adapter I've extended FragmentPagerAdapter which has FragmentManager and a variable behaviour.
class ViewPagerAdapter(#NonNull fm:FragmentManager, behaviour:Int):
FragmentPagerAdapter(fm, behaviour) {
private val tabs:Array<Fragment> = arrayOf(
Category1Fragment(),
Category2Fragment(),
Category3Fragment(),
Category4Fragment(),
Category5Fragment()
)
#NonNull
override fun getItem(position: Int): Fragment {
return tabs[position]
}
override fun getCount(): Int {
return tabs.size
}
#Nullable
override fun getPageTitle(position: Int): CharSequence? {
return when (position) {
0 -> "Bags"
1 -> "Watches"
2 -> "Shoes"
3 -> "Glasses"
4 -> "Audio"
else -> null
}
}
}
and in my activity I've called adapter through viewpager, but when I debug is telling me that adapter is null, here's my activity code:
val adapter = ViewPagerAdapter(supportFragmentManager, tab_layout.selectedTabPosition)
val viewPager = findViewById<ViewPager>(R.id.view_pager)
viewPager.adapter = adapter
val tab = findViewById<TabLayout>(R.id.tab_layout)
tab.setupWithViewPager(view_pager)
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
tab.addOnTabSelectedListener(object : TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener {
override fun onTabReselected(p0: TabLayout.Tab?) {
}
override fun onTabUnselected(p0: TabLayout.Tab?) {
}
override fun onTabSelected(p0: TabLayout.Tab?) {
viewPager.currentItem = tab.selectedTabPosition
}
})
In the previous versions of android I did the same, but in androidX things are something different. I tried also to use ViewPager2, but it was confusing.
Any help is appreciated!

How to use the FragmentPagerAdapter with unique unrelated fragments?

I am trying to implement a simple swiping action between the three main screens of my app (feed, forum & profile).
I've been looking for guides online but they all seem to take the same approach and show how to implement the adapter using fragments that are simple instances of a basic class that for example just inflates a title and a number on the screen.
In my case, the fragments are not all instances of the same class and are completely different.
M problem lays in the FragmentPagerAdapter. I am not sure how to return each fragment in the getItem method.
I have tried the following but it doesn't except it as a valid return statement and is still expecting one:
class PagesPagerAdapter(fragmentManager: FragmentManager) : FragmentPagerAdapter(fragmentManager) {
override fun getItem(p0: Int): Fragment? {
return when (p0){
0 -> FeedFragment.newInstance()
1 -> BoardFragment.newInstance()
2 -> ProfileFragment.newInstance()
else -> FeedFragment.newInstance()
}
}
override fun getCount(): Int {
return 3
}
}
This is an example of one of my fragments:
class FeedFragment : Fragment() {
val galleryAdapter = GroupAdapter<ViewHolder>()
private fun setUpGalleryAdapter() {
feed_gallary.adapter = galleryAdapter
val galleryLayoutManager = GridLayoutManager(this.context, 3)
feed_gallary.layoutManager = galleryLayoutManager
val dummyUri =
"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/dere-3d530.appspot.com/o/20150923_100950.jpg?alt=media&token=97f4b02c-75d9-4d5d-bc86-a3ffaa3a0011"
val imageUri = Uri.parse(dummyUri)
if (imageUri != null) {
galleryAdapter.add(FeedImage(imageUri))
galleryAdapter.add(FeedImage(imageUri))
galleryAdapter.add(FeedImage(imageUri))
galleryAdapter.add(FeedImage(imageUri))
galleryAdapter.add(FeedImage(imageUri))
}
}
override fun onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState)
setUpGalleryAdapter()
}
override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? =
inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_feed, container, false)
companion object {
fun newInstance(): FeedFragment = FeedFragment()
}
}
And this is my main activity:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private lateinit var viewPager: ViewPager
private lateinit var pagerAdapter: PagesPagerAdapter
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
viewPager = findViewById<ViewPager>(R.id.view_pager)
pagerAdapter = PagesPagerAdapter(supportFragmentManager)
viewPager.adapter = pagerAdapter
}
}
I have also tried to define a variable currentFragment, have it reassigned for each of the when statements and have it be the return value, but as all my fragments are unique I am getting a type mismatch when trying to assign them all to one variable.
Is there some Array I can store the fragments in and then return the array position?
I feel like there is probably a simple elegant and common solution here.

Without seeing all of your code I cannot be sure but one thing to note is you must return an instance of your fragment not a reference to the class. Ex: FeedFragment() instead of FeedFragment.
Also, your when statement does not have a default case resulting in a compile error for the getItem method as you have a code path that doesn't return anything. Try the following code for getItem
override fun getItem(p0: Int): Fragment {
when(p0){
0 -> return FeedFragment.newInstance()
1 -> return BoardFragment.newInstance()
else -> return ProfileFragment.newInstance()
}
}

Unfortunately, there is no elegant solution for this case. You can store created fragment in array and then use this array when you need to access related fragment instance.
class PagesPagerAdapter(fragmentManager: FragmentManager) : FragmentPagerAdapter(fragmentManager) {
private val fragments = SparseArray<WeakReference<Fragment>>()
override fun getCount() = 3
override fun getItem(position: Int): Fragment? {
val fragmentReference = fragments[position]
return if (fragmentReference?.get() != null) {
fragmentReference.get()
} else {
return when (position) {
0 -> FeedFragment.newInstance()
1 -> BoardFragment.newInstance()
2 -> ProfileFragment.newInstance()
else -> error("Incorrect position: $position")
}
}
}
override fun instantiateItem(container: ViewGroup, position: Int): Any {
val fragment = super.instantiateItem(container, position) as Fragment
fragments.put(position, WeakReference(fragment))
return fragment
}

fragment inside fragment {Kotlin}

is there any possible way to put a fragment inside a fragment?
I tried to put a viewPager in a fragment and write the code on OnCreatedView but it gives me error!!!
I tried this one but the fragments goes for every fragment in the activity!
pageradapter.kt
class pagerAdapter(fm:FragmentManager):FragmentStatePagerAdapter(fm){
override fun getItem(position: Int): Fragment? {
return when(position){
0-> Fragment1()
1-> Fragment2()
else -> null
}
}
override fun getCount(): Int {
return 2
}
fun rotatePosition(position: Int):Int{
return (count -1)-position
}
class pagerAdapter(fm:FragmentManager):FragmentStatePagerAdapter(fm){
override fun getItem(position: Int): Fragment? {
return when(position){
0-> Fragment1()
1-> Fragment2()
else -> null
}
}
override fun getCount(): Int {
return 2
}
fun rotatePosition(position: Int):Int{
return (count -1)-position
}
pageradapter2.kt
class pagerAdapter2(fm: FragmentManager):FragmentStatePagerAdapter(fm){
override fun getItem(position: Int): Fragment? {
return when(position){
0-> BlankFragment()
else->null
}
}
/**
* Return the number of views available.
*/
override fun getCount(): Int {
return 1
}
MainActivity.kt
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
val pagerAdapter2 = pagerAdapter2(supportFragmentManager)
val pager1= findViewById<View>(R.id.pager2) as ViewPager
pager1.adapter = pagerAdapter2
val adapter = pagerAdapter(supportFragmentManager)
val pager = findViewById<View>(R.id.pager) as ViewPager
pager.adapter = adapter
pager.setCurrentItem(adapter.rotatePosition(0), false)
}
P.S. The first Answer solved my problem.

If you are adding fragment for an activity you use either fragmentManager or supportFragmentManager.
If you are adding fragment for a fragment - you should use childFragmentManager, accessing fragmentManager from fragment will lead to using the same one that activity does.
