common navigation drawer on different activities

common navigation drawer on different activities - android

I have built an application with an navigation drawer activity in it but now I want it to be present on my other activities as well. I don't want to handle events again and again in different classes.
Also I got suggestions like making one base class and extend that but as I cannot extend more than one class.
Also I also want to use fragments so that I did not have to write the same code again and again
My activity_main.xml is like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

It's not as easy. There are 2 tech-ticks to achieve it. One is to create use fragment second one is to add the whole code in all activities.
To achieve your result in above case, Add the fragment in your activity and replace/add activities as your required

Also i got suggestions like making one base class and extend that but as I cannot extend more than one class.
True, but the thing about class extension is that you can create a base class that extends AppCompatActivity, and then make your activities extend that base class:
public class BaseClass extends AppCompatActivity...
public class MainActivity extends BaseClass...
This will implicitly cause your MainActivity to extend AppCompatActivity.

As you are supplying a toolbar in your MainActivity you need to turn the default one off in the AndroidManifest.xml file
e.g.
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.NoActionBar" />

Changing the locale of the Navigation drawer items

When I change the locale of the app, every TextView changes the language but navigation drawer items don't change the language.
I have used
#Override
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
super.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
invalidateOptionsMenu();
drawerView.invalidate();
supportInvalidateOptionsMenu();
}
After locale change, still the language change is not getting reflected in navigation drawer.
But when I restart the activity, the language change is getting reflected in Navigation Drawer.
How to change the language in Navigation Drawer items as soon as the locale is changed ?

You need to reload resources for your app in order to change language. Resources loaded before language change for all text based resources were of previous locale. Now, you need are resources with different locale, after language is changed.
So, the way to do is refresh your whole activity, because, not only different resources are needed, but also, text in different language might have different length and span. So, whole new re-rendering is needed, (otherwise, text will spill over other ui elements, without adjustment).
I will post here the complete code which refreshes the activity on language changed, and everything changes to different locale including navigation drawer items.

Everthing above I have tested and it works fine.
Hope it helps !

Simply put this code before the setContentView in the activity
Locale locale;
locale = new Locale(languageToLoad);
Locale.setDefault(locale);
Configuration config = new Configuration();
config.locale = locale;
activity.getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config,
activity.getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics());

those who are looking for latest solution in kotlin:
upgrade your appcompat version to 1.6.0 or later
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.6.0'
create a function
fun setLocale(language: String?) {
val appLocale: LocaleListCompat = LocaleListCompat.forLanguageTags(language)
AppCompatDelegate.setApplicationLocales(appLocale)
}
then use it like
setLocale("en-EN")
it will update and refresh all language change/locale including NavigationView

Android Design Support Library Secondary Drawer Menu

I've switched to the official Google Design Support Library. Now, I want to use a secondary menu with a divider like this:
But as Android is using the Menu Inflater I have no idea what to do now. I can add a second group, but then the items have the same size and there is no divider.
drawer.xml:

So, how can I create a menu like this, or how can I add dividers (with category headers) to my navigation drawer?

You can use the standard NavigationView defining a menu like this:
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group android:id="#+id/group1" android:checkableBehavior="single" id>
//items of group1
</group>
<group android:id="#+id/group2" android:checkableBehavior="single" id>
//items of group2
</group>
It is important to give an unique id to each group.

Tutorial: Navigation View Design Support Library
Menu Items:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group android:checkableBehavior="single">
<item
android:id="#+id/navigation_item_attachment"
android:checked="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_attachment"
android:title="#string/nav_item_attachment" />
<item
android:id="#+id/navigation_item_images"

<item
android:icon="#drawable/ic_emoticon"
android:title="#string/nav_sub_menu_item02" />
</menu>
</item>
</menu>

Here is what you exactly looking for:

You can use any ViewGroup like a LinearLayout for your Drawer. It is not limited to a ListView and a FrameLayout. Because of this you can style your Drawer View like any other layout of an Activity for example. The only thing you should keep in mind is that the NavigationDrawer can have only two childs. The first is your layout for the Activity and the second is the Drawer. Feel free to style them as you like!
<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">
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<!-- YOUR DRAWER -->
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer_view"
android:layout_width="240dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_gravity="start">
<!-- Use any Views you like -->
<ListView
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:background="#ffffff"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
for the divider
android:divider="#FFFFFF"
android:dividerHeight="1dp"

Drawer indicator in lollipop play store

I am using a Nexus 7 with the Android 5.0 preview build.
On this page
http://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/index.html
I see
Changes for v7 appcompat library: Updated ActionBarDrawerToggle, which
contains the menu-to-arrow animation
Is this what the Google Play app uses? Am I reading too much into this statement? What do I need to change to get this behavior - I can't find it in the API documentation.

I've posted a sample app here that uses the new Toolbar class and ActionBarToggle to provide an ActionBar with the Play Store style animating icon:
https://github.com/03lafaye/LollipopDrawerToggle
The no-v7-support branch uses the ActionBarToggle with a framework Activity and Toolbar. The master branch uses the v7 Toolbar and an ActionBarActivity.
The setup for not using an ActionBarActivity looks like this:
package com.plafayette.lollipop;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import android.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class ToolbarActivity extends Activity {
private ActionBarDrawerToggle toggle;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_toolbar);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setActionBar(toolbar);
DrawerLayout drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
toggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawerLayout, R.string.open, R.string.close);
toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(toggle);
}
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
toggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.toolbar, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (toggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item))
return true;
int id = item.getItemId();
return id == R.id.action_settings || super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Note that you have to disable the window actionbar and title bar in your theme like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Material.Light">
<item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
</resources>
I imagine the sample code for the latest v7 appcompat library will be released soon enough making this post obsolete.
Chris Renke from Square published an alternate backport of the up icon animation. The code is on GitHub here: https://github.com/ChrisRenke/DrawerArrowDrawable and he wrote a blog about it at http://chrisrenke.com/drawerarrowdrawable.

It is very easy.
Your layout with DrawerLayout looks the same as always. You use android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout and create drawers and content area:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/drawerLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#ff0"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</RelativeLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/leftDrawer"
android:layout_width="290dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:background="#f0f"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:clickable="true"
android:divider="#null"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:scrollbars="none" />
Main changes are in your java code. In your Activity, where you use drawer layout, you have to extend it for ActionBarActivity from v7. Then you create variables for DrawerLayout and ActionBarDrawerToggle. Your imports should look like this:
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
and then just connect everything. Remember that new drawer layout does not have icon! You just dont pass it where you normally should be. Code for my activity:
import android.content.res.Configuration;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
ActionBarDrawerToggle drawerToggle;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawerLayout);
drawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawerLayout, R.string.app_name, R.string.app_name) {};
drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(drawerToggle);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (drawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
drawerToggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
drawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
}
And it should work.

You seem to have a working drawer as I read it, if not, the Documentation on "Creating a Navigation Drawer" is pretty good.
Updated ActionBarDrawerToggle, which contains the menu-to-arrow animation
The above quote refers to Create a new ActionBarDrawerToggle with arrow and hamburger menu commit.
As a related one: setDrawerIndicatorEnabled was added in Add ability to disable drawer indicator in new ArrowDrawer.
So make sure setDrawerIndicatorEnabled is not called with false and use
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
instead of
import android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
which should be pretty obvious from deprecation warnings anyway:
#deprecated Please use ActionBarDrawerToggle in support-v7-appcompat.
Probably also need
// <item name="displayOptions">showHome|homeAsUp</item>
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);

First, make sure you update to latest SDK. Create new Project in Android Studio, then add appcompat-v7.21.0.+ and appcompat-v4.21.0.+ libraries in your buid.gradle as gradle dependency.
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:21.0.2'
Add primaryColor and primarycolorDark in your color.xml file.
<resources>
<color name="primaryColor">#2196F3</color>
<color name="primaryColorDark">#0D47A1</color>
</resources>
Add drawer open/close string value in your strings.xml file.
<resources>
<string name="app_name">Lollipop Drawer</string>
<string name="action_settings">Settings</string>
<string name="drawer_open">open</string>
<string name="drawer_close">close</string>
</resources>
Your activity_my.xml layout file looks like this:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<include layout="#layout/toolbar" />
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/drawerLayout"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!-- activity view -->
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#fff"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#000"
android:text="Activity Content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- navigation drawer -->
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_gravity="left|start"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#fff"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:divider="#eee"
android:background="#fff"
android:dividerHeight="1dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Your toolbar.xml layout file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
Your MyActivity.java looks like this:
Here your activity must extends ActionBarActivity and set your toolbar as support actionbar.
import android.content.res.Configuration;
import android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
public class MyActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
private Toolbar toolbar;
private DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
private ActionBarDrawerToggle drawerToggle;
private ListView leftDrawerList;
private ArrayAdapter<String> navigationDrawerAdapter;
private String[] leftSliderData = {"Home", "Android", "Sitemap", "About", "Contact Me"};
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
nitView();
if (toolbar != null) {
toolbar.setTitle("Navigation Drawer");
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
}
initDrawer();
}
private void nitView() {
leftDrawerList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.left_drawer);
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawerLayout);
navigationDrawerAdapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>( MyActivity.this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, leftSliderData);
leftDrawerList.setAdapter(navigationDrawerAdapter);
}
private void initDrawer() {
drawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, drawerLayout, toolbar, R.string.drawer_open, R.string.drawer_close) {
#Override
public void onDrawerClosed(View drawerView) {
super.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
}
#Override
public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
super.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
}
};
drawerLayout.setDrawerListener(drawerToggle);
}
#Override
protected void onPostCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onPostCreate(savedInstanceState);
drawerToggle.syncState();
}
#Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
drawerToggle.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.my, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
if (drawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item)) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Create style.xml file in values-21 folder for android lollipop
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="myAppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/primaryColor</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/primaryColorDark</item>
<item name="android:statusBarColor">#color/primaryColorDark</item>
<item name="drawerArrowStyle">#style/DrawerArrowStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="DrawerArrowStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.DrawerArrowToggle">
<item name="spinBars">true</item>
<item name="color">#android:color/black</item>
</style>
</resources>
Create your style.xml file in values folder for older versions then android lollipop
<resources>
<style name="myAppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light">
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/primaryColor</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#color/primaryColorDark</item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="drawerArrowStyle">#style/DrawerArrowStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="DrawerArrowStyle" parent="Widget.AppCompat.DrawerArrowToggle">
<item name="spinBars">true</item>
<item name="color">#android:color/black</item>
</style>
</resources>
Your AndroidManifest.xml is looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="nkdroid.com.lollipopdrawer" >
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/myAppTheme" >
<activity
