Android: Recyclerview inside fragment fetching data from TMDbApi gives error: E/RecyclerView: No adapter attached; skipping layout

I've been struggling with a problem on android. I have an app with a drawer which shows fragments depending on what menu item you click in the drawer.
Here's how my app currently works:
This is the drawer with the menu buttons:
Whenever I click a button, for instance Profile, it will load the correct Fragment:
Now I have this problem with the Recyclerview withing my fragmentview of TV Show
When I click on tv shows I get a white empty layout like this:
And this is what I get in the logcat:
com.example.derwishe.movielist E/RecyclerView: No adapter attached; skipping layout
Here's my code:
Fragment Class:

android:layout_gravity="start"

</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
fragment_tvshow.xml which holds the recyclerview
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView

android:layout_height="wrap_content">

android:layout_height="50dp"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:layout_weight="1"

<TextView

android:id="#+id/showTitle"
android:text="Show Title"
android:textSize="22sp"

</LinearLayout>

I think it's because once your fragment's onCreate is first run, the recyclerView isn't assigned an adapter, it's until after you fetch your data (the tv shows) that you set the adapter to your recyclerView.
One way to fix this would be to have a constructor that doesn't take any arguments for your adapter, and a method inside it that would pass in whatever data the recyclerView will need to display. You'd end up with something like this:
public class ListAdapter {
public ListAdapter() {}
public void submitList(final List<TvShow> tvShows) {
this.tvShows = tvShows;
notifyDataChanged();
}
}

Fragment is not being replaced after click in navigation drawer

I tried every way to solve this problem but still I am not getting whats wrong with this code. Can you help me?

I want to REPLACE FRAGMENT WITH OTHER FRAGMENT WHEN I CLICK ON NAVIGATION DRAWER ITEMS
Can anyone help me?

I can support you giving you my working code for Android 27.1.1:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements
BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {
private int mSelectedId;
/**
* Create Navigation bar and load the main fragment "statistics".
*/
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
loadFragment(new FragmentStatistics());
BottomNavigationView navigation = findViewById(R.id.navigation);
navigation.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);
mSelectedId = navigation.getSelectedItemId();
}
/**
* Checks for any event in the Navigation Bar.
* If the item selected is the same as the actual item
* Do nothing
* Else
* Load new fragment selected.
*/
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem item) {
Fragment fragment = null;
if (mSelectedId != item.getItemId()) {
mSelectedId = item.getItemId();
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.statistics:
fragment = new FragmentStatistics();
break;
case R.id.shops:
fragment = new FragmentShops();
break;
}
}
return loadFragment(fragment);
}
private boolean loadFragment(Fragment fragment) {
//switching fragment
if (fragment != null) {
getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.fragment_container, fragment)
.commit();
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
The rest of your code is exact as mine.

Tabs not visible but navigation on swipe works in TabLayout

I am trying to create an app with 3 simple tabs using tabbed activity. I created a project with tabbed activity then I removed the auto generated static Fragment class and created 3 fragment classes as well as fragment layouts and used them in FragmentPagerAdapter.
Tabs are working, I can swipe between the tabs, but I am not able to see the TAB headers on the top.
Any suggestion ?

I think you are searching for the hierarchy used in the concept of BaseActivity you can make many child and use the behavior of parent. The formal concept is pass the layout from child Activity to the BaseActivity and BaseActivity will set the content.
First create an abstract class and name it BaseActivity, It should be something like
public abstract class BaseActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
#Override
public void onCreate(bundle) {
super.onCreate(bundle);
setContentView(getLayoutResourceId());
}
protected abstract int getLayoutResourceId();
}
Then in your case extend BaseActivity in NavigationActivity like here
public class NavigationActivity extends BaseActivity {
#Override
public void onCreate(bundle) {
super.onCreate(bundle);
// do extra stuff on your resources, using findViewById on your activity_navigation
}
#Override
protected int getLayoutResourceId() {
return R.layout.activity_navigation;
}
}

fragment text appearing in toolbar

I'm trying to get a sliding drawer set up. I want the text to appear in the main body of the activity, but instead it's appearing inside of the toolbar, and it only says This is fragment 2, regardless of whether I pulled up the fragment that's supposed to say This is fragment 1 or This is fragment 2.
How can I make it pull up the proper fragment, instead of always fragment 2, and how can I make the toolbar opaque, with text appearing under it instead of in it.

I solved one part of this issue, though I'm not certain I used best practices. I added padding to the top of main_content in a size of "?attr/actionBarSize"
But it's still only displaying This is Fragment 2, regardless of which fragment I'm trying to select.

If you want the content below the toolbar, you can wrap toolbar and content in one layout as:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
app:popupTheme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/main_content"
android:background="#8000ff00"
>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Besides, if you are using Android Studio, creating Navigation Drawer Activity through the wizard is the best way to ensure that everything works properly.
