Collapse SearchView (in ActionBar) on Back button press

I have implemented SearchView in ActionBar, But the problem with it is, whenever am typing something and press submit, the SearchView doesn't collapse back into that Search icon, it stays expanded, neither when I press Back button, SearchView doesn't collapse back.
My implementation is like this:
menu_search.xml
<item
android:id="#+id/app_bar_search"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_search_white_24dp"
android:title="Search"
app:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView"
app:showAsAction="always" />
MainActivity.java
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_search, menu);
item = menu.findItem(R.id.app_bar_search);
searchView = (SearchView) item.getActionView();
searchView.setMaxWidth(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
int searchBarId = searchView.getContext().getResources().getIdentifier("android:id/search_bar", null, null);
searchBar = searchView.findViewById(searchBarId);
searchBar.setLayoutTransition(new LayoutTransition());
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
item.collapseActionView();
searchView.setQuery("", false);
searchView.clearFocus();
searchBar.clearFocus();
.
.
.
.
.
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
return false;
}
});
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
Things I have tried:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
if (item.isActionViewExpanded()) {
item.collapseActionView();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
and
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
if (searchView != null) {
searchView.onActionViewCollapsed();
searchView.setQuery("", false);
searchView.clearFocus();
searchBar.clearFocus();
hideSoftKeyboard(MainActivity.this);
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
public static void hideSoftKeyboard(Activity activity) {
InputMethodManager inputMethodManager =
(InputMethodManager) activity.getSystemService(
Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(
activity.getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
}
SearchView expands from left to right to type but doesn't collapse back form right to left.
Please advice.

Try below code and let me know if it works.
SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);
searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(new ComponentName(this, ResultActivity.class)));
searchView.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_SEARCH);
searchView.setOnSuggestionListener(new SearchView.OnSuggestionListener() {
#Override
public boolean onSuggestionSelect(int position) {
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onSuggestionClick(int position) {
searchView.clearFocus();
item.collapseActionView();
return false;
}
});
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
searchView.clearFocus();
item.collapseActionView();
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
return false;
}
});

I was going through the second page of Google search and found this.
It worked for me.
searchView.setOnQueryTextFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (!hasFocus) {
searchView.setIconified(true);
}
}
});

How to let SearchView keep its last query content after reopen?

When using search view, I have a requirement from customer that they want to retain the search content after reopen the search view. My Search view is on a list view and do a real timing filtering based on what user input into the search box. When closed the search box by either click the back button on the phone or click the soft back button on the top left on action bar, the search box closed, search view iconfied. But when reopen it next time, the search query used last time is also been cleared, which I do not want.
My question is that is there a way I can keep the search view content there. Just hiding the search box, but not clear the content?
My related code are as follow:
MenuItem search;
SearchView searchView;
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_locationlist_fragment, menu);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB) {
search = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search_location_list);
searchView = (SearchView) MenuItemCompat.getActionView(search);
SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);
searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getActivity().getComponentName()));
searchView.setIconifiedByDefault(false);
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(this);
searchView.setOnQueryTextFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
//This will make sure, when user closed search view, the list will be restored.
if(!hasFocus) {
Log.i(Tags.LOCATIONLIST,"Search Close");
search.collapseActionView();
} else {
}
}
}
});
ImageView closeButton = (ImageView)searchView.findViewById(R.id.search_close_btn);
closeButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
EditText searchEditText = (EditText)searchView.findViewById(R.id.search_src_text);
searchEditText.setText("");
if (((LocationListAdapter)locationListView.getAdapter())!=null) {
((LocationListAdapter) locationListView.getAdapter()).getFilter().filter("");
}
}
});
}
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.action_search_location_list:
((BaseActivity) getActivity()).onSearchRequested();
return true;
case R.id.action_refresh_location_list:
refreshLocationList();
return true;
default:
return false;
}
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String s) {
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String s) {
if (((LocationListAdapter)locationListView.getAdapter())!=null) {
if (TextUtils.isEmpty(s)) {
locationListView.clearTextFilter();
} else {
((LocationListAdapter) locationListView.getAdapter()).getFilter().filter(s);
//locationListView.setFilterText(s.toString());
}
}
return true;
}

Use
SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.menu_search).getActionView();
searchView.setIconified(false);
Any query text is cleared when iconified. So setIconified to false. And i have used android.widget.SearchView

Save your String in a variable (e.g. myWantedString) and
override setOnClickListener that trigers everytime you open the SearchView and use setQuery. Your code should be:
searchView.setOnSearchClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
searchView.setQuery(myWantedString, false);
}
});
To save your string each time the SearchView closes implement setOnCloseListener and override onClose():
searchView.setOnCloseListener(new SearchView.OnCloseListener()
{
#Override
public boolean onClose()
{
myWantedString = searchView.getQuery();
return false;
}
});

searchView.setQuery() works if was called with a delay after menu item expansion.
MenuItemCompat.setOnActionExpandListener(searchItem, new MenuItemCompat.OnActionExpandListener() {
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemActionExpand(MenuItem item) {
final SearchView searchView = (SearchView) MenuItemCompat.getActionView(item);
// set query text with a delay
searchView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
searchView.setQuery(query, false);
}
});
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onMenuItemActionCollapse(MenuItem item) {
return true;
}
});

You can create an Activity which can be called when the user searches and the search result can be stored in the Bundle during the callback method onPause or onSaveInstanceState , when the Activity is called once again restore it from the bundle.

MenuItem searchItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);
SearchView searchView = (SearchView) searchItem.getActionView();
searchView.setIconified(false);
searchView.setOnSearchClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
searchView.setQuery("SEARCH_WORD", false);
}
});
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/SearchView
Sets a listener to inform when the search button is pressed. This is only relevant when the text field is not visible by default. Calling setIconified(false) can also cause this listener to be informed.

Search in custom ListView

the problem in search is start only of first word
example : search in "Real Madrid" , if search of "Madrid" not give result , but if search of "Real" give me result because the word "real" is first word
So what is the solution to this problem? Thank you :)
public void setAdapterToListview() {
objAdapter = new LatestGridAdapter(getActivity(), R.layout.latest_lsv_item,
arrayOfLatestVideo,columnWidth);
lsv_latest.setAdapter(objAdapter);
}
public void showToast(String msg) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), msg, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_search, menu);
final SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.search)
.getActionView();
final MenuItem searchMenuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.search);
searchView.setOnQueryTextFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(!hasFocus) {
searchMenuItem.collapseActionView();
searchView.setQuery("", false);
}
}
});
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
textlength=newText.length();
arrayOfLatestVideo.clear();
for(int i=0;i< allArrayVideoName.length;i++)
{
if(textlength <= allArrayVideoName[i].length())
{
if(newText.toString().equalsIgnoreCase((String) allArrayVideoName[i].substring(0, textlength)))
{
ItemLatest objItem = new ItemLatest();
objItem.setId(Integer.parseInt(allArrayVideoId[i]));
objItem.setCategoryId(Integer.parseInt(allArrayVideoCatId[i]));
objItem.setCategoryName(allArrayVideoCatName[i]);
objItem.setDescription(allArrayVideoDesc[i]);
objItem.setVideoId(allArrayVideo[i]);
objItem.setVideoName(allArrayVideoName[i]);
objItem.setVideoUrl(allArrayVideourl[i]);
objItem.setImageUrl(allArrayImageUrl[i]);
arrayOfLatestVideo.add(objItem);
}
}
}
setAdapterToListview();
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
// Do something
return true;
}
});
}

Try this method for searching. If it returns anything other than -1 it means that it's found a match. I turn everything into lowercase so you don't have to worry about case sensitivity.
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
textlength=newText.length();
arrayOfLatestVideo.clear();
for(int i=0;i< allArrayVideoName.length;i++)
{
if(textlength <= allArrayVideoName[i].length())
{
if(allArrayVideoName[i].toLowerCase().indexOf(newText.toLowerCase())!=-1)
{
ItemLatest objItem = new ItemLatest();
objItem.setId(Integer.parseInt(allArrayVideoId[i]));
objItem.setCategoryId(Integer.parseInt(allArrayVideoCatId[i]));
objItem.setCategoryName(allArrayVideoCatName[i]);
objItem.setDescription(allArrayVideoDesc[i]);
objItem.setVideoId(allArrayVideo[i]);
objItem.setVideoName(allArrayVideoName[i]);
objItem.setVideoUrl(allArrayVideourl[i]);
objItem.setImageUrl(allArrayImageUrl[i]);
arrayOfLatestVideo.add(objItem);
}
}
}
setAdapterToListview();
return false;
}

submit a query when click on search button in keyboard

I have search view in my fragment. when I click on it , keyboard is open and I can type text. I want when I click on search button in keyboard , my query send to my server and get result but I don't know how get search event. any solution?

You have to extend OnQueryTextListener, attach the listener and implement onQueryTextSubmit.
Example:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.mActionSearch).getActionView();
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(this);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
//Do something here
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
return false;
}

Pozzo Apps Answer is right
but for api below 11 and compat library you can use something like this :
MenuItem search_menu=(MenuItem)menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);
SearchView searchView =(SearchView)MenuItemCompat.getActionView(search_menu);

You can also apply setOnKeyListener on search view like as below:
searchview.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener(
{
Public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if(event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
{
switch(keyCode)
{
Case KeyEvent.KECODE_ENTER:
// Apply action which you want on search key press on keypad
return true;
default:
break;
}
} return false;
}
});

You have to add new OnQueryTextListener, and implement onQueryTextSubmit. This also works in a fragment.
Example:
#Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
inflater.inflate(R.menu.main_search, menu);
SearchView sv = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.action_search).getActionView();
sv.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
//Do something here
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Search: " + query, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT ).show();
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
return false;
}
});
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu,inflater);
}

Collapse searchview after submit

I am using searchview in my application ( without action bar). How can I collapse searchview after query text submit?
I have these listeners ;
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)thisFr.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(globalSearch.getWindowToken(), 0);
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
I don't use ActionBar so I don't have a function like collapseActionView().

you need to call setIconified(true) twice to actually collapse your search view, with first call text is cleared with second call keyboard and search view get closed.

You can do it this way in your activity, tested with actionbarsherlock (it even hides the keyboard, make sure to return false in onQueryTextSubmit):
private MenuItem searchMenuItem;
public MenuItem getSearchMenuItem() {
return searchMenuItem;
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// ...
searchMenuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.menu_search);
// ...
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
MenuItem searchMenuItem = getSearchMenuItem();
if (searchMenuItem != null) {
searchMenuItem.collapseActionView();
}
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
// ...
return true;
}
});
// ...
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}

If you are using the SearchView in the OptionsMenu, you ca call invalidateOptionsMenu()

//close suggestion list on query text submit
searchView.setIconified(true);

final MenuItem searchterm = menu.findItem(R.id.search);
SearchView searchView = null;
searchView = (SearchView) searchterm.getActionView();
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
#Override
public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
searchterm.collapseActionView();
}});
