Previously I used onCreateOptionsMenu and onSupportNavigationUp.
Now I use MenuProvide. To check if navigation up was clicked I check id - "android.R.id.home". While it works, I'm not sure this is the right approach?
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, false)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
binding = ActivityMainBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
setContentView(binding.root)
setSupportActionBar(binding.toolbar)
val navController = findNavController(R.id.nav_host_fragment_content_main)
appBarConfiguration = AppBarConfiguration(navController.graph)
setupActionBarWithNavController(navController, appBarConfiguration)
addMenuProvider(object : MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
Log.d(TAG, "onMenuItemSelected: {${menuItem.itemId}}")
return when (menuItem.itemId) {
android.R.id.home -> {
navController.navigateUp(appBarConfiguration)
}
else -> {
true
}
}
}
})
}
How do I declare a menu inside of Android fragment? The method that I had used previously is now deprecated.
Originally:
override fun onCreateView(...): View {
setHasOptionsMenu(true)
}
override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu, inflater: MenuInflater) {
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater)
this.menu = menu
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu, this.menu)
}
From the Developer documentation, this can be achieved by the following:
/**
* Using the addMenuProvider() API directly in your Activity
**/
class ExampleActivity : ComponentActivity(R.layout.activity_example) {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
// Add menu items without overriding methods in the Activity
addMenuProvider(object : MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
// Add menu items here
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.example_menu, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle the menu selection
return true
}
})
}
}
/**
* Using the addMenuProvider() API in a Fragment
**/
class ExampleFragment : Fragment(R.layout.fragment_example) {
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
// The usage of an interface lets you inject your own implementation
val menuHost: MenuHost = requireActivity()
// Add menu items without using the Fragment Menu APIs
// Note how we can tie the MenuProvider to the viewLifecycleOwner
// and an optional Lifecycle.State (here, RESUMED) to indicate when
// the menu should be visible
menuHost.addMenuProvider(object : MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
// Add menu items here
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.example_menu, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle the menu selection
return when (menuItem.itemId) {
R.id.menu_clear -> {
// clearCompletedTasks()
true
}
R.id.menu_refresh -> {
// loadTasks(true)
true
}
else -> false
}
}
}, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)
}
Fragments setHasOptionsMenu deprecated, use setHasOptionsMenu
Expanding on what #joseph-wambura and #hammad-zafar-bawara said, you can also implement the interface in the fragment...
class MyFragment : Fragment(), MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
// Do stuff...
val menuHost: MenuHost = requireActivity()
menuHost.addMenuProvider(this, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)
}
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.options, menu)
// Do stuff...
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Do stuff...
return false
}
}
In Kotlin, declaration for Activity, Fragment and PreferenceFragmentCompat
Activity
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
addMenuProvider(object : MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle the menu selection
return true
}
})
}
}
Fragment
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
// The usage of an interface lets you inject your own implementation
val menuHost: MenuHost = requireActivity()
menuHost.addMenuProvider(object : MenuProvider {
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
// Add menu items here
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle the menu selection
return when (menuItem.itemId) {
R.id.action_menu1 -> {
// todo menu1
true
}
R.id.action_menu2 -> {
// todo menu2
true
}
else -> false
}
}
}, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)
}
PreferenceFragmentCompat
val menuHost: MenuHost = requireHost() as MenuHost
//Same declaration with Fragment
Use MenuProvider interface
class FirstFragment : Fragment(), MenuProvider {
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
val menuHost: MenuHost = requireActivity()
menuHost.addMenuProvider(this, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)
}
override fun onCreateMenu(menu: Menu, menuInflater: MenuInflater) {
// Add menu items here
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.second_menu, menu)
}
override fun onMenuItemSelected(menuItem: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle the menu selection
return when (menuItem.itemId) {
R.id.menu_clear -> {
// Do stuff...
true
}
R.id.menu_refresh -> {
// Do stuff...
true
}
else -> false
}
}, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)
}
JAVA CODE
Option menu in Activity
addMenuProvider(new MenuProvider() {
#Override
public void onCreateMenu(#NonNull Menu menu, #NonNull MenuInflater menuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.bottom_nav_menu, menu);
// Add menu options here
}
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
// Handle Menu Options Selection Here
return false;
}
});
Option menu in Fragment
requireActivity().addMenuProvider(new MenuProvider() {
#Override
public void onCreateMenu(#NonNull Menu menu, #NonNull MenuInflater menuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.bottom_nav_menu, menu);
// Add option Menu Here
}
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
return false;
// Handle option Menu Here
}
}, viewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED);
If you're using Jetpack NavigationUI then you need to setSupportActionBar(toolbar), otherwise the menu will not be present.
this helps me on onCreateView Method:
requireActivity().addMenuProvider(new MenuProvider() {
#Override
public void onCreateMenu(#NonNull Menu menu, #NonNull MenuInflater menuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.bottom_nav_menu, menu);
// Add option Menu Here
}
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
// Handle option Menu Here
return false;
}
}, getViewLifecycleOwner, Lifecycle.State.RESUMED);
I'm not sure why all answers recommend passing in Lifecycle.State.RESUME as the lifecycle state to the addMenuProvider call. This will make the menu disappear when the fragment is paused, which doesn't look great when the fragment is paused and still visible.
For example, showing a dialog as a result of tapping a menu item will make the menu disappear. It will re-appear when the dialog is dismissed.
For most cases, a better lifecycle state to pass in would be Lifecycle.State.CREATE, which will only remove the menu when the view is destroyed. This is also the default behaviour, so you can simply omit the lifecycle state.
in java for fragment i tried this . it works fine for me
#Nullable
#Override
public View onCreateView(#NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, #Nullable ViewGroup container, #Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_example, container, false);
toolbar = (Toolbar)view.findViewById(R.id.toolbar_1);
((AppCompatActivity)getActivity()).setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
MenuHost menuHost = requireActivity();
menuHost.addMenuProvider(new MenuProvider() {
#Override
public void onCreateMenu(#NonNull Menu menu, #NonNull MenuInflater menuInflater) {
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_search,menu);
}
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
if (menuItem.getItemId() == R.id.search_friend){
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "friends", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return true;
}
else return false;
}
},getViewLifecycleOwner(), Lifecycle.State.RESUMED);
return view;
}
I am trying to go to another activity, but my setting activity is preventing to go there. How do I fix that?
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private var gettext: EditText? = null
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
gettext = findViewById(R.id.text2)
// val intent = intent
val action = intent.action
val type = intent.type
val button = findViewById<Button>(R.id.button_submit)
//this part is what I want to go to another activity, while still have setting activity
button.setOnClickListener {
val intent = Intent(this,com.example.testing1.DecryptVerify::class.java)
startActivity(intent)
}
if (Intent.ACTION_SEND == action && type != null) {
handleSendText(intent)
}
}
private fun handleSendText(intent: Intent) {
val sharedText = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT)
if (sharedText != null) {
// showing the text in edittext
gettext?.setText(sharedText)
}
}
//I want to stay, while when I run it and click button on the top one
override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean {
when (item.itemId) {
R.id.action_settings -> {
val intent = Intent(this, com.example.testing1.SettingsActivity::class.java
)
startActivity(intent)
}
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
}
override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu?): Boolean {
val menuInflater = menuInflater
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu)
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu)
}
}
Do I need to some form if-else?
I have tried to add an setOnClickListener in my Fragment. But both methods i tried didnt work. There is no readction to my button press in the App.
class LoginFragment: Fragment(), View.OnClickListener {
//AuthVariable for global use
private lateinit var myAuth: FirebaseAuth
override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
var view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.content_login, container, false)
view?.login_button?.setOnClickListener(this)
return view
}
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
}
override fun onClick(p0: View?) {
Log.i("BUTTON123","TEST")
loginUser()
}
}
Activity:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(), NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
//AuthVariable for global use
private lateinit var myAuth : FirebaseAuth
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
setSupportActionBar(toolbar)
val toggle = ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer_layout, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close)
drawer_layout.addDrawerListener(toggle)
toggle.syncState()
nav_view.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this)
//Initializing FirebaseAuth Instance
myAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance()
var user = myAuth.currentUser
if(user != null){
updateUI(user)
}else{
val test = supportFragmentManager
val frag = LoginFragment()
test.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.placeholder,frag).addToBackStack(null).commit()
}
}
override fun onBackPressed() {
if (drawer_layout.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
drawer_layout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START)
} else {
super.onBackPressed()
}
}
override fun onCreateOptionsMenu(menu: Menu): Boolean {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
menuInflater.inflate(R.menu.main, menu)
return true
}
override fun onOptionsItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
when (item.itemId) {
R.id.action_settings -> return true
else -> return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item)
}
}
override fun onNavigationItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
when (item.itemId) {
R.id.nav_addShop -> {
//Activity to Add your Shop
val addshopIntent = Intent(this,AddShopActivity::class.java)
startActivity(addshopIntent)
}
R.id.nav_searchShop -> {
//SearchFragment
val test = supportFragmentManager
val frag = test()
test.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.placeholder,frag).addToBackStack(null).commit()
}
R.id.nav_shopMap -> {
//MapActivity
val mapintent = Intent(this, ShopMap::class.java)
startActivity(mapintent)
}
R.id.nav_manage -> {
}
R.id.nav_share -> {
}
R.id.nav_logout -> {
myAuth.signOut()
updateUI(myAuth.currentUser)
}
}
drawer_layout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START)
return true
}
}
Did you forget the onClick() method in LoginFragment?
override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
val view: View = inflater.inflate(R.layout.content_login, container, false)
view.login_button.setOnClickListener {
Log.i("BUTTON123","TEST")
loginUser()
}
return view
}
I need to open a context menu on MenuItem click. How can i do this? I've tried to do this on BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener:
registerForContextMenu(menuItem.actionView)
openContextMenu(menuItem.actionView)
but the actionView in null.
Thanks a lot.
Main Activity:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity(){
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener)
navigation.selectedItemId = R.id.navigation_dashboard
}
}
private val mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener = BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener { item ->
when (item.itemId) {
...
R.id.navigation_add -> {
registerForContextMenu(menuItem.actionView)
openContextMenu(item.actionView)
return#OnNavigationItemSelectedListener true
}
}
false
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(mOnNavigationItemSelectedListener)
navigation.selectedItemId = R.id.navigation_dashboard
}
override fun onCreateContextMenu(menu: ContextMenu, v: View,
menuInfo: ContextMenuInfo) {
...
}
override fun onContextItemSelected(item: MenuItem): Boolean {
...
}
