How to make navigation drawer and bottom navigation with the same app?

I'm trying to use navigation drawer and bottom bar nav in my app.therefore i have created navigation activity first.then i tried to add bottom bar nav to that same activity. I want to develop like this app:
without BottomNavigationView in Activity.xml,app is working.but when i add BottomNavigationView inside Activity.xml app crashed.nothing showing in logcat.
how can i use both bottombar nav and navigation drawer in same activity,please give me an simple example? thx

I am using Navigation Architecture Component following version:
def nav_version = "2.0.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-fragment:$nav_version"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-ui:$nav_version"
And below is a simple code to use BottomNavigation and Navigation Drawer
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
private static final String TAG = "debinf MainActivity";
//public static final String FRAGMENT_KEY = "fragment";
private BottomNavigationView bottomNavigationView;
private NavigationView navigationView;
private DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
private NavController navController;
private AppBarConfiguration appBarConfiguration;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Log.i(TAG, "onCreate: ");
bottomNavigationView = (BottomNavigationView) findViewById(R.id.main_bottomnav);
navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.main_sidebar);
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.main_drawer);
setupNavigation();
}
private void setupNavigation() {
Log.i(TAG, "setupNavigation: ");
navController = Navigation.findNavController(this, R.id.main_fragment);
appBarConfiguration =
new AppBarConfiguration.Builder(navController.getGraph()) //Pass the ids of fragments from nav_graph which you dont want to show back button in toolbar
.setDrawerLayout(drawerLayout)
.build();
NavigationUI.setupActionBarWithNavController(this, navController, appBarConfiguration); //Setup toolbar with back button and drawer icon according to appBarConfiguration
NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navigationView, navController);
NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(bottomNavigationView, navController);
/*
** Listener for bottomNavigation must be called after been setupWithNavController
** This command will override NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(bottomNavigationView, navController)
** and the automatic transaction between fragments is lost
* */
//bottomNavigationView.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
Log.i(TAG, "onBackPressed: ");
if (drawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
Log.i(TAG, "onBackPressed: DRAWER IS OPEN - CLOSING IT");
drawerLayout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
#Override
public boolean onSupportNavigateUp() {
Log.i(TAG, "onSupportNavigateUp: ");
// replace navigation up button with nav drawer button when on start destination
return NavigationUI.navigateUp(navController, appBarConfiguration) || super.onSupportNavigateUp();
}
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
Log.i(TAG, "onNavigationItemSelected: SIDE BAR");
if (drawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
drawerLayout.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}

I hope it helps!

If you using includes. Just wrap app bar include with bottom navigation in some layout. For example I'm using ConstraintLayout for most of time.

That's all.

Add a parent to <include ..../> then add BottomNavigationView
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<include
layout="#layout/app_bar_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
android:id="#+id/navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
app:itemTextColor="#color/colorAccent"
app:menu="#menu/bottom_navigation_menu"/>
</RelativeLayout>

Use TabLayout instead of bottom navigation
TabLayout is better and easier
create root.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/drawerlayout"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<include layout="#layout/activity_main"/>
<include layout="#layout/navi_drawer"/>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
create navi_drawer

android:layout_width="280dp"

android:background="?attr/navigationBackground"
android:orientation="vertical">

Navigation Drawer does not fit underneath the status bar (android studio) [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How do I use DrawerLayout to display over the ActionBar/Toolbar and under the status bar?
(10 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I am working on an app in android studio. I'm trying to create a navigation drawer that fits right underneath the status bar. For some reason the navigation bar shows up underneath the app bar instead kind of like in this picture:
Navdrawer1
I would like it to look like this:
Navdrawer2
Here is my xml code:
<LinearLayout

Any help would be great! Thanks!

Here you need toolbar :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:id="#+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"//fit to top status bar
tools:openDrawer="start">
<include
layout="#layout/app_bar_home_actvity"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
android:id="#+id/nav_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start">

android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true" //fit to top status bar
tools:context=".activity.HomeActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

app:popupTheme="#style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<include layout="#layout/content_home_actvity" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

You must include your toolbar within the "NavigationView"
Your code would look something like this:

nav drawer and fragments

I created a NavDrawer Activity with the assistant rather with the tutorial.
Now when I want to open a new fragment it does not replace the main content but prepends it. The textfield should disappear.
I guess I am trying to replace the wrong container. But why is it the wrong one and which is the correct one
ReadActivity.java
public class ReadActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_read);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
//more code...
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle navigation view item clicks here.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.nav_read) {
// Handle the camera action
} else if (id == R.id.nav_settings) {
//the probably wrong
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.content, new SettingFragment)
.commit();
} else {
}
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
}

I hope I didn't append too much code :)

Everything is ok with your code, preferences screen is just drawing on top of your old layout.
The solution for this is:
In your content_read
Swap RelativeLayout (this is not necessary, you can just add new framelayout as child to the relative layout) with FrameLayout which will be your holder for fragments
Should look something like this>
content_read.xml
<FrameLayout
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:id="#+id/container"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/container"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="202dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="JUST A RANDOM TEXT INSIDE CONTAINER WHICH WILL BE REPLACED BY SETTINGS FRAGMENT"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"/>
</FrameLayout>
Note the FrameLayout has the id of R.id.container
Next Create settings_screen_layout which should look something like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
Note that you need a listview with the "#android:id/list" which will act as container for your preferences
In your SettingFragment Override onCreateView like this
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
addPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.prefrences);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.preference_screen_layout, container, false);
return view;
}
and do the transaction
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.container, new SettingFragment)
.commit();

same navigation drawer in different activities, toolbar error

I'm trying to develop an app with multiple activities and the same navigation drawer and toolbar.
I've created a BaseActivity for initialization of drawer and other activities extend it, but I have problems with toolbar, in particular when using setSupportActionBar(toolbar).
How can I fix this problem?
BaseActivity.java
public abstract class BaseActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
private DrawerLayout drawer;
private ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(getLayoutResourceId());
}
protected abstract int getLayoutResourceId();
public void initDrawer() {
drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
(Activity) this, drawer, toolbar, R.string.navigation_drawer_open, R.string.navigation_drawer_close);
drawer.setDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
toggle.syncState();
getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
}
#SuppressWarnings("StatementWithEmptyBody")
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.food) {
final Intent intent = new Intent(this, FoodDiary.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
return true;
}
}

You can't use same Navigation Drawer and Toolbar with different Activities.
If you want different screens with the same components, you have to use Fragments with one Activity, for example FragmentActivity.

Recyclerview overlay toolbar

I use new com.android.support:design:22.2.0 library. When recyclerview initialised it overlay toolbar. I think it's because of incorrect initialization recyclerview. I else try insert recyclerview in single file, but i cannot understand how to inflate it
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.home);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
final ActionBar ab = getSupportActionBar();
if (ab != null) {
ab.setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.menu_and);
ab.setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
}
mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
NavigationView navigationView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
if (navigationView != null) {
setupDrawerContent(navigationView);
}
lNews.clear();
populatedata();
mLinearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext());
mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView)findViewById(R.id.recycleralda);
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLinearLayoutManager);
mRecyclerView.setItemAnimator(new DefaultItemAnimator());
mRecyclerviewAdapter = new RecyclerViewAdapter(getApplicationContext());
mRecyclerviewAdapter.loadNews(lNews);
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mRecyclerviewAdapter);
