Save fragments state in ViewPager on screen rotation - android

I have TabLayout and ViewPager with 2 fragments, each of them is a recyclerView that load data from firebase.
All works fine. But when I change screen orientation ViewPager recreate each fragment and fragments load data again.
Is it possible and how to save fragment state in ViewPager?
But I do not want to override onSaveInstanceState method for creating data set and then restore it. I want something like find fragment by tag when check existing fragment.
Activity
public class MainActivity extends BaseBroadcastActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
setupViewPager(mViewPager);
TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(mViewPager);
}
private void setupViewPager(ViewPager viewPager) {
Adapter adapter = new Adapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
adapter.addFragment(MainListFragment.newInstance(connected, "Notices"), "Notices");
adapter.addFragment(MainListFragment.newInstance(connected, "Posts"), "Posts");
viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
}
static class Adapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragments = new ArrayList<>();
private final List<String> mFragmentTitles = new ArrayList<>();
public Adapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
public void addFragment(Fragment fragment, String title) {
mFragments.add(fragment);
mFragmentTitles.add(title);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
return mFragments.get(position);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mFragments.size();
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return mFragmentTitles.get(position);
}
}
In MainListFragment I only create recyclerView and load data from firebase.
Thank You!
EDIT
Thank You for responding!
I find my error. What's happen when we create FragmentPageAdapter at first time and when we recreate activity:
FragmentPageAdapter call instantiateItem method where it find fragment by tag and if fragment exists adapter use it, but if fragment does not exist adapter call getItem method and create fragment.
In my situation fragments are not recreated, but data is refreshing because I refresh them in onCreateView method in fragment, but now I am edit onCreateView:
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
retrieveData();
}

It should be done in the way that you return new instance always in getItem(). I would also rather use FragmentStatePagerAdapter especially when you have more pages.
You also need to save every internal state that can be lost in onSaveInstanceState(). If you don't want to reload, you'll need to save the data. If you have some data in POJOs, you can add Serializable interface to them to serialize them easily into bundle.
There is also setRetainInstance() on fragment, but it always caused some weird behavior for me, so I'm not using it.
static class Adapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
public Adapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
Fragment fragment=null;
switch (position) {
case 0: fragment=MainListFragment.newInstance(mConnected, "Notices"); //don't forget to save mConnected in savedInstanceState
case 1: fragment=MainListFragment.newInstance(mConnected, "Posts");
}
return fragment;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 2;
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
String title="";
switch (position) {
case 0: title="Notices";
case 1: title="Posts";
}
return title;
}

Call onCreateView() on fragment that is inside a viewpager

I have viewpager that has 4 fragments.
I have set the offscreenPageLimit to 4 and did not override getItemPosition of the adapter because I don't want them to be re-created every time when I change tabs.
Now, there will be a scenario when I want a particular fragment to be re-created (it means to call onCreateView).
That is before I select or when I select that fragment again.
How to do this?
Please try this adapter. This recover to re-create fragment again.
public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
private Fragment[] fragments;
private String[] titleList;
private int index;
public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm, String[] titleList){ // titleList is list of title of fragments
super(fm);
fragments = new Fragment[titleList.length];
this.titleList = titleList;
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
Fragment fragment;
if (fragments[position] == null){
YourFragment yourFragment = new YourFragment();
fragment = yourFragment;
fragments[position] = fragment;
return fragment;
}else{
return fragments[position];
}
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return titleList.length;
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return titleList[position].toUpperCase();
}
}

Detect Fragment in ViewPager inside a Fragment of another ViewPager visible

For example, I have
MainActivity (contain a ViewPager)
Fragment0
Fragment1 (contain a ViewPager)
Fragment1a
Fragment1b
Fragment2
I want to refresh Fragment1a every time it visible so I use setUserVisibleHint inside Fragment1a but not working well.
When I switch between fragment Fragment1a and Fragment1b, setUserVisibleHint of Fragment1a called
However when I go from fragment Fragment0 to Fragment1 or Fragment2 to Fragment1 setUserVisibleHint of Fragment1a (and Fragment1b) not called
How can I detect Fragment1a (and Fragment1b) visible? Any help or suggestion would be great appreciated.
setUserVisibleHint also not working me I used another way to update data in fragment when view pager change fragment, Below is The way,
viewpager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) {
}
#Override
public void onPageSelected(int position) {
try {
if(viewPagerAdapter.getItem(position) instanceof Fragment1a){
Fragment1a frag1 = (Fragment1a) viewPagerAdapter.getItem(position);
frag1.updateData(data); // here is the public method of fragment which declared for udpate data in fragment
}else if(viewPagerAdapter.getItem(position) instanceof Fragment1b){
Fragment1b frag2 = (Fragment1b) viewPagerAdapter.getItem(position);
frag2.updateData(data); // here is the public method of fragment which declared for udpate data in fragment
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
#Override
public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {
}
});
viewpager.setCurrentItem(0);
This way you can update data directly Just you need to create one public method in your fragment.
Here is the Adapter
class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();
private final List<TabModel> mFragmentTitleList = new ArrayList<>();
public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager) {
super(manager);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
return mFragmentList.get(position);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mFragmentList.size();
}
public void addFragment(Fragment fragment, TabModel title) {
mFragmentList.add(fragment);
mFragmentTitleList.add(title);
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return mFragmentTitleList.get(position).getTabName();
}
}

Child's viewpager destroyed/getting invisible after parent viewpager's page slide

I've a ViewPager (Parent ViewPager) in my activity with 4 fragments. One of the fragments implements a sliding ViewPager (Child ViewPager) with automatic sliding.
When I swipe the parent ViewPager to, say, tab 3 and then I go back to the first fragment which contains the sliding ViewPager, some of the slide disappears and some of it stays. When I slide the ViewPager (the child ViewPager) back and forth couple of times, it gets restored to its original state.
I assume the fragment state of the sliding view pager is getting lost when the parent ViewPager is being slid.
Here's the parent ViewPager's adapter:
public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();
private final List<String> mFragmentTitleList = new ArrayList<>();
public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager) {
super(manager);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
return mFragmentList.get(position);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mFragmentList.size();
}
public void addFragment(Fragment fragment, String title) {
mFragmentList.add(fragment);
mFragmentTitleList.add(title);
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return mFragmentTitleList.get(position);
}
}
Here's the child ViewPager's adapter (slider):
class sliding_PageAdapters extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
int mNumOfTabs;
public sliding_PageAdapters(FragmentManager fm, int numTabs) {
super(fm);
this.mNumOfTabs = numTabs;
}
#Override
public void destroyItem(ViewGroup viewPager, int position, Object object) {
viewPager.removeView((View) object);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
Bundle ar = new Bundle();
FragmentHomeImages fragment = new FragmentHomeImages();
switch (position) {
case 0:
ar.putString("number", "0");
fragment.setArguments(ar);
return fragment;
case 1:
ar.putString("number", "1");
fragment.setArguments(ar);
return fragment;
case 2:
ar.putString("number", "2");
fragment.setArguments(ar);
return fragment;
case 3:
ar.putString("number", "3");
fragment.setArguments(ar);
return fragment;
default:
return null;
}
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mNumOfTabs;
}
}
The child ViewPager is being called with getChildFragmentManager() here:
sliding_pagerAdapter = new sliding_PageAdapters(getChildFragmentManager(), 4);
And the parent ViewPager is being called with getSupportFragmentManager() here:
adapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
I can think of one problem. On the parent viewpager call setOffscreenPageLimit(limit).
here limit is the number of pages that should be retained to either side of the current page in the view hierarchy in an idle state. Pages beyond this limit will be recreated from the adapter when needed. So set the appropriate limit based on your use-case.
viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
viewPager.setAdapter(new MyAdapter(fragmentManager));
viewPager.setOffscreenPageLimit(2);

opening a layout (xml) inside a fragment instead of string text input

Problem: I was modifying a small app where three tabs are there in fragment but all refers to text string. I wanted to use layout xml so that I can make good graphics in it. How can I do it in this code:
Information_tab refers to a string where I can put text, but I want a layout.
public class AdapterInformation extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
public AdapterInformation(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int index) {
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
int imgResId = 0;
int tab = 0;
int colorResId = 0;
switch (index) {
case 0:
tab = R.string.information_tab1;
break;
case 1:
tab = R.string.information_tab2;
break;
case 2:
tab = R.string.information_tab3;
break;
}
bundle.putInt("image", imgResId);
bundle.putInt("tab",tab);
bundle.putInt("color", colorResId);
SwipeTabFragment swipeTabFragment = new SwipeTabFragment();
swipeTabFragment.setArguments(bundle);
return swipeTabFragment;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return 3;
}}
you can add fragment layout like this.
private void setupViewPager(final ViewPager viewPager) {
final ViewPagerAdapter adapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());
adapter.addFragment(new OneFragment(), "Pending Upload");
adapter.addFragment(new TwoFragment(), "Complete Upload");
viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
}
and your fragmentPagerAdapter code is like this:
public class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();
private final List<String> mFragmentTitleList = new ArrayList<>();
public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager)
{
super(manager);
}
#Override
public int getItemPosition(Object object) {
return POSITION_NONE;
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int position)
{
return mFragmentList.get(position);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mFragmentList.size();
}
public void addFragment(Fragment fragment, String title) {
mFragmentList.add(fragment);
mFragmentTitleList.add(title);
}
#Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
return mFragmentTitleList.get(position);
}
}
and also add your setupViewPager method in onCreate()
viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);
setupViewPager(viewPager)
tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager);
Note: Do not use getItemPosition() method if its possible.. it
will produce redundancy of your listItems or ArrayList.. bcz every
time you swipe to other layout it will refresh page automatically..
its good if want this facility.. but you have write some code
regarding to handle this method.. and its also going to slow your
swipe animation if you have large amount of data.

Fragments in viewpager

I have viewpager with some fragments and i set to each fragment my model class according which UI of fragment should be edited. That model class i set to fragment at constructor before i add that fragment to FragmentStatePagerAdapter. My problem is that after rotating screen or when system kills my application and i restore it, my fragment are recreated by system and my model class instance is lost. Even if I set new FragmentStatePagerAdapter, fragments created by system are visible. Is there any right way of achive that i create new instances of my fragments and place them into viewpager? I tried so many thinks like removing fragments from FragmentManager, adding Adapter to viewpager again, change FragmentStatePagerAdapter only to FragmentPagerAdapter and nothing helped.
My activity class with loading model classes in loader from some resource:
List<Fragment> visibleFragment = new ArrayList<Fragment>();
for (Screen screen : wizard.screens) {
if (screen.visible) {
visibleFragment.add(new ScreenUI(screen));
}
}
viewPager.setAdapter(null);
viewPager.setAdapter(new WizardPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), visibleFragment));
My FragmentStatePagerAdapter
public class WizardPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {
private final List<Fragment> mFragments;
private final int count;
public WizardPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm, List<Fragment> fragments) {
super(fm);
mFragments = fragments;
count = mFragments.size();
}
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int index) {
return mFragments.get(index);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return count;
}
}
try add in Manifest android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize" to activity.
OR something like that
public class ViewPagerTaskAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
Map<Integer, FragmentViewTask> fragmentsTask = new HashMap<Integer, FragmentViewTask>();
#Override
public Fragment getItem(int arg0) {
FragmentViewTask myFragment = FragmentViewTask.newInstance(arg0,
tasks.get(arg0));
fragmentsTask.put(arg0, myFragment);
return myFragment;
}
#Override
public void destroyItem(ViewGroup container, int position, Object object) {
super.destroyItem(container, position, object);
fragmentsTask.remove(position);
}
public FragmentViewTask getFragment(int key) {
return fragmentsTask.get(key);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
if (tasks != null)
return tasks.size();
return 0;
}
}
Have you tried using onRetainInstance(true) on your Fragments?
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setRetainInstance(true);
}
