In an android application I'm loading data from a Db into a TableView inside a Fragment. But when I reload the Fragment it displays the previous data. Can I repopulate the Fragment with current data instead of previous data?
I think you want to refresh the fragment contents upon db update
If so, detach the fragment and reattach it
// Reload current fragment
Fragment frg = null;
frg = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag("Your_Fragment_TAG");
final FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.detach(frg);
ft.attach(frg);
ft.commit();
Your_Fragment_TAG is the name you gave your fragment when you created it
This code is for support library.
If you're not supporting older devices, just use getFragmentManager instead of getSupportFragmentManager
[EDIT]
This method requires the Fragment to have a tag.
In case you don't have it, then #Hammer's method is what you need.
This will refresh current fragment :
FragmentTransaction ft = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 26) {
ft.setReorderingAllowed(false);
}
ft.detach(this).attach(this).commit();
In case you do not have the fragment tag, the following code works well for me.
Fragment currentFragment = getActivity().getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
if (currentFragment instanceof "NAME OF YOUR FRAGMENT CLASS") {
FragmentTransaction fragTransaction = (getActivity()).getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
fragTransaction.detach(currentFragment);
fragTransaction.attach(currentFragment);
fragTransaction.commit();
}
To refresh the fragment accepted answer will not work on Nougat and above version. To make it work on all os you can do following.
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().detach(this).commitNow();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().attach(this).commitNow();
} else {
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().detach(this).attach(this).commit();
}
you can refresh your fragment when it is visible to user,
just add this code into your Fragment this will refresh your fragment when it is visible.
#Override
public void setUserVisibleHint(boolean isVisibleToUser) {
super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser);
if (isVisibleToUser) {
// Refresh your fragment here
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().detach(this).attach(this).commit();
Log.i("IsRefresh", "Yes");
}
}
You cannot reload the fragment while it is attached to an Activity, where you get "Fragment Already Added" exception.
So the fragment has to be first detached from its activity and then attached. All can be done using the fluent api in one line:
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().detach(this).attach(this).commit();
Update:
This is to incorporate the changes made to API 26 and above:
FragmentTransaction transaction = mActivity.getFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction();
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 26) {
transaction.setReorderingAllowed(false);
}
transaction.detach(this).attach
(this).commit();
For more description of the update please see https://stackoverflow.com/a/51327440/4514796
If you are using NavController, try this (kotlin):
val navController = findNavController()
navController.run {
popBackStack()
navigate(R.id.yourFragment)
}
In case you are using Navigation Components
You can use navigate(this_fragment_id) to navigate to this fragment but in a new instance. Also you have to pop the backstack before to remove the actual fragment.
Kotlin
val navController: NavController =
requireActivity().findNavController(R.id.navHostFragment)
navController.run {
popBackStack()
navigate(R.id.this_fragment_id)
}
Java
NavController navController =
requireActivity().findNavController(R.id.navHostFragment);
navController.popBackStack();
navController.navigate(R.id.this_fragment_id);
MyFragment fragment = (MyFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(FRAGMENT_TAG);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().detach(fragment).attach(fragment).commit();
this will only work if u use FragmentManager to initialize the fragment. If u have it as a <fragment ... /> in XML, it won't call the onCreateView again. Wasted my 30 minutes to figure this out.
Here what i did and it worked for me i use firebase and when user is logIn i wanted to refresh current Fragment first you will need to requer context from activity because fragment dont have a way to get context unless you set it from Activity or context here is the code i used and worked in kotlin language i think you could use the same in java class
override fun setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser: Boolean) {
super.setUserVisibleHint(isVisibleToUser)
val context = requireActivity()
if (auth.currentUser != null) {
if (isVisibleToUser){
context.supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction().detach(this).attach(this).commit()
}
}
}
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(GeneralInfo.this.getId(), new GeneralInfo()).commit();
GeneralInfo it's my Fragment class GeneralInfo.java
I put it as a method in the fragment class:
public void Reload(){
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(LogActivity.this.getId(), new LogActivity()).commit();
}
Use a ContentProvider and load you data using a 'CursorLoader'. With this architecture your data will be automatically reloaded on database changes. Use third-party frameworks for your ContentProvider - you don't really want to implement it by yourself...
I had the same issue but none of the above worked for mine. either there was a backstack problem (after loading when user pressed back it would to go the same fragment again) or it didnt call the onCreaetView
finally i did this:
public void transactFragment(Fragment fragment, boolean reload) {
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE);
if (reload) {
getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack();
}
transaction.replace(R.id.main_activity_frame_layout, fragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
transaction.commit();
}
good point is you dont need the tag or id of the fragment either.
if you want to reload
Make use of onResume method... both on the fragment activity and the activity holding the fragment.
For example with TabLayout: just implement OnTabSelectedListener. To reload the page, you may use implement SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener i.e. public class YourFragment extends Fragment implements SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener {
the onRefresh() method will be #Override from the interface i.e.:
#Override
public void onRefresh() {
loadData();
}
Here's the layout:
<com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/tablayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorPrimaryLighter"
app:tabGravity="fill"
app:tabIndicatorColor="#color/white"
app:tabMode="fixed"
app:tabSelectedTextColor="#color/colorTextPrimary"
app:tabTextColor="#color/colorTextDisable" />
Code in your activity
TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tablayout);
tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager);
tabLayout.addOnTabSelectedListener(new TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void onTabSelected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {
if (tab.getPosition() == 0) {
yourFragment1.onRefresh();
} else if (tab.getPosition() == 1) {
yourFragment2.onRefresh();
}
}
#Override
public void onTabUnselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {
}
#Override
public void onTabReselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {
}
});
// Reload current fragment
Fragment frag = new Order();
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_home, frag).commit();
None of these answers worked for me so I might as well post my solution if anyone still has problems with this. This solution works only if you are using the Navigation component.
Go to your navigation graph and find the fragment you want to refresh. Create an action from that fragment to itself. Now you can call that action inside that fragment like so.
private void refreshFragment(){
// This method refreshes the fragment
NavHostFragment.findNavController(FirstFragment.this)
.navigate(R.id.action_FirstFragment_self);
}
Below code reloads the current fragment onClick of button from Parent Activity.
layoutNews.setOnClickListener(v -> {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.fragment_container, fragNews);
ft.detach(fragNews);
ft.attach(fragNews);
ft.commit();
});
If you are in a fragment then use:
findNavController().run {
popBackStack()
navigate(R.id.your_fragment)
}
Easiest way
make a public static method containing viewpager.setAdapter
make adapter and viewpager static
public static void refreshFragments(){
viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);
}
call anywhere, any activity, any fragment.
MainActivity.refreshFragments();
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
viewPagerAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
Do write viewpagerAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); in onResume() in MainActivity.
Good Luck :)

OK I found out that I am opening/replacing the fragment in another layout element than the one the tablayout is in. Therefore the underlying fragment is never really left if i understand correctly and also no lifecycle methods are triggered.
I have FragmentA inside a TabLayout from which i call:
//inside FragmentA
#Override
public void onClickView() {
activity.replaceFragment(FragmentB.newInstance(), true);
}
in replaceFragment the passed fragment is added to the backstack in the transaction and then replaces the fragment
public void replaceFragment(Fragment fragment, boolean doAddToBackStack) {
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
if (doAddToBackStack) {
String tag = fragment.getClass().toString();
ft.addToBackStack(tag);
}
ft.replace(R.id.mainFragment, fragment);
ft.commit();
}
After that, FragmentB opens, I do my stuff and return via popBackStackImmediate() to FragmentA:
//inside FragmentB
#Override
public void onClickBack() {
activity.getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStackImmediate();
}
and when I go back I need to update something in FragmentA.
According to another post on the platform when returning to a fragment onCreateView() should be called but that does not work for me. According to the fragment lifecycle documentation the onCreateView() is only called the first time the UI is drawn which would explain my troubles.
My question is now what lifecycle method can I use or what other approach should I take to execute code when returning to a fragment from backstack?
According to the following answer you can add a listener to check when it is being called
https://stackoverflow.com/a/52646588/6468214
getSupportFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(
new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
public void onBackStackChanged() {
// Your Code Here
}
});
I have a fragment inside a group activity and I want to replace it with another fragment:
FragmentTransaction ft = getActivity().getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
SectionDescriptionFragment bdf = new SectionDescriptionFragment();
ft.replace(R.id.book_description_fragment, bdf);
ft.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN);
ft.addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
It works fine when it is done as a seperate project without using activity group, every thing works fine in log cat as control goes inside getview(), but no view is visible, not even any exception arises, I want the book detail fragment to be replaced by section detail fragment.
Xml of book detail fragment has id book_description_fragment and xml for section description fragment has id section_description_fragment.
The above code is in onClick method of an item, I want that when user taps on an item in horizontal scroll view, then the fragment changes.
Fragments that are hard coded in XML, cannot be replaced. If you need to replace a fragment with another, you should have added them dynamically, first of all.
Note: R.id.fragment_container is a layout or container of your choice in the activity you are bringing the fragment to.
// Create new fragment and transaction
Fragment newFragment = new ExampleFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
// Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this fragment,
// and add the transaction to the back stack if needed
transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container, newFragment);
transaction.addToBackStack(null);
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit();
Please see this Question
You can only replace a "dynamically added fragment".
So, if you want to add a dynamic fragment, see this example.
I've made a gist with THE perfect method to manage fragment replacement and lifecycle.
It only replace the current fragment by a new one, if it's not the same and if it's not in backstack (in this case it will pop it).
It contain several option as if you want the fragment to be saved in backstack.
=> See Gist here
Using this and a single Activity, you may want to add this to your activity:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
int fragments = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
if (fragments == 1) {
finish();
return;
}
super.onBackPressed();
}
Use the below code in android.support.v4
FragmentTransaction ft1 = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
WebViewFragment w1 = new WebViewFragment();
w1.init(linkData.getLink());
ft1.addToBackStack(linkData.getName());
ft1.replace(R.id.listFragment, w1);
ft1.commit();
Use ViewPager. It's work for me.
final ViewPager viewPager = (ViewPager) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.vp_pager);
button = (Button)result.findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
viewPager.setCurrentItem(1);
}
});
hope you are doing well.when I started work with Android Fragments then I was also having the same problem then I read about
1- How to switch fragment with other.
2- How to add fragment if Fragment container does not have any fragment.
then after some R&D, I created a function which helps me in many Projects till now and I am still using this simple function.
public void switchFragment(BaseFragment baseFragment) {
try {
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.slide_in_left, android.R.anim.slide_out_right);
if (getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.home_frame) == null) {
ft.add(R.id.home_frame, baseFragment);
} else {
ft.replace(R.id.home_frame, baseFragment);
}
ft.addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
enjoy your code time :)
you can use simple code its work for transaction
Fragment newFragment = new MainCategoryFragment();
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content_frame_NavButtom, newFragment);
ft.commit();
You Can Use This code
((AppCompatActivity) getActivity()).getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.YourFrameLayout, new YourFragment()).commit();
or You Can This Use Code
YourFragment fragments=(YourFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.FrameLayout);
if (fragments==null) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.FrameLayout, new Fragment_News()).commit();
}
I change fragment dynamically in single line code
It is work in any SDK version and androidx
I use navigation as BottomNavigationView
BottomNavigationView btn_nav;
FragmentFirst fragmentFirst;
FragmentSecond fragmentSecond;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_search);
fragmentFirst = new FragmentFirst();
fragmentSecond = new FragmentSecond ();
changeFragment(fragmentFirst); // at first time load the fragmentFirst
btn_nav = findViewById(R.id.bottomNav);
btn_nav.setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener(new BottomNavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener() {
#Override
public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(#NonNull MenuItem menuItem) {
switch(menuItem.getItemId()){
case R.id.menu_first_frag:
changeFragment(fragmentFirst); // change fragmentFirst
break;
case R.id.menu_second_frag:
changeFragment(fragmentSecond); // change fragmentSecond
break;
default:
Toast.makeText(SearchActivity.this, "Click on wrong bottom SORRY!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
return true;
}
});
}
public void changeFragment(Fragment fragment) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.fragment_layout_changer, fragment).commit();
}
In kotlin you can do:
// instantiate the new fragment
val fragment: Fragment = ExampleFragment()
val transaction = supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
transaction.replace(R.id.book_description_fragment, fragment)
transaction.addToBackStack("transaction_name")
// Commit the transaction
transaction.commit()
This will work if you're trying to change the fragment from another fragment.
Objects.requireNonNull(getActivity()).getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.home_fragment_container,new NewFragment())
NOTE As stated in the above answers, You need to have dynamic fragments.
You can use fragment-ktx
// If you are in fragmet
childFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
// or if you are in activiry
supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
// Create and commit a new transaction
supportFragmentManager.commit {
setReorderingAllowed(true)
// Replace whatever is in the fragment_container view with this fragment
replace<ExampleFragment>(R.id.fragment_container)
}
To replace a fragment with another one do this, Note that R.id.fragment comes from the id that you give to the first tag of the fragment in the XML.
barAudioPlaying.setOnClickListener(view -> {
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager()
.beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.fragment,new HomeFragment())
.commit();
I have an Activity and many fragments inflated in same FrameLayout
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
example: mainActivity > any fragment (press back button) > activity is blank.
In onCreate:
layout = (FrameLayout)findViewById(R.id.content_frame);
layout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
When I start a fragment:
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, profileFragment);
ft.addToBackStack(null);
ft.commit();
layout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
I suppose I need to make the frameLayout's visibility GONE again on back pressed, but how do I do this?
I tried onBackPressed and set layout.setVisibility(View.GONE); but I cannot go back through fragments, as I go directly to main page.
If you have more than one fragment been used in the activity or even if you have only one fragment then the first fragment should not have addToBackStack defined. Since this allows back navigation and prior to this fragment the empty activity layout will be displayed.
// fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack() // dont include this for your first fragment.
But for the other fragment you need to have this defined otherwise the back will not navigate to earlier screen (fragment) instead the application might shutdown.
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
if (drawer.isDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.START)) {
drawer.closeDrawer(GravityCompat.START);
}
else {
int fragments = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
if (fragments == 1) {
finish();
} else if (getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 1) {
getFragmentManager().popBackStack();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
}
To add a fragment
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.replace(R.id.layout_main, dashboardFragment, getString(R.string.title_dashboard))
.addToBackStack(getString(R.string.title_dashboard))
.commit();
Sorry for the late response.
You don't have to add ft.addToBackStack(null); while adding first fragment.
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, profileFragment);
// ft.addToBackStack(null); --remove this line.
ft.commit();
// ... rest of code
If you want to track by the fragments you should override the onBackPressed method, like this
public void onBackPressed() {
if (getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() == 1) {
finish();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}
You can override onBackPressed and check to see if there is anything on the backstack.
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
int fragments = getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
if (fragments == 1) {
// make layout invisible since last fragment will be removed
}
super.onBackPressed();
}
Just don't add the first fragment to back stack
Here is the Kotlin code that worked for me.
val ft = supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(container, frag)
if (!supportFragmentManager.fragments.isEmpty()) ft.addToBackStack(null)
ft.commit()
On a recent personal project, I solved this by not calling addToBackStack if the stack is empty.
// don't add the first fragment to the backstack
// otherwise, pressing back on that fragment will result in a blank screen
if (fragmentManager.getFragments() != null) {
transaction.addToBackStack(tag);
}
Here's my full implementation:
String tag = String.valueOf(mCurrentSectionId);
FragmentManager fragmentManager = mActivity.getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment fragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag(tag);
if (fragment != null) {
// if the fragment exists then no need to create it, just pop back to it so
// that repeatedly toggling between fragments doesn't create a giant stack
fragmentManager.popBackStackImmediate(tag, 0);
} else {
// at this point, popping back to that fragment didn't happen
// So create a new one and then show it
fragment = createFragmentForSection(mCurrentSectionId);
FragmentTransaction transaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN)
.replace(R.id.main_content, fragment, tag);
// don't add the first fragment to the backstack
// otherwise, pressing back on that fragment will result in a blank screen
if (fragmentManager.getFragments() != null) {
transaction.addToBackStack(tag);
}
transaction.commit();
}
irscomp's solution works if you want to end activity when back button is pressed on first fragment. But if you want to track all fragments, and go back from one to another in back order, you add all fragments to stack with:
ft.addToBackStack(null);
and then, add this to the end of onCreate() to avoid blank screen in last back pressed; you can use getSupportFragmentManager() or getFragmentManager() depending on your API:
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
fm.addOnBackStackChangedListener(new OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
if(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() == 0) finish();
}
});
Final words: I don't suggest you to use this solution, because if you go from fragment1 to fragment 2 and vice versa 10 times, when you press back button 10 times it will do it in back order which users will not want it.
Almost same as Goodlife's answer, but in Xamarin.Android way:
Load fragment (I wrote helper method for that, but it's not necessary):
public void LoadFragment(Activity activity, Fragment fragment, string fragmentTitle = "")
{
var fragmentManager = activity.FragmentManager;
var fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.BeginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.Replace(Resource.Id.mainContainer, fragment);
fragmentTransaction.AddToBackStack(fragmentTitle);
fragmentTransaction.Commit();
}
Back button (in MainActivity):
public override void OnBackPressed()
{
if (isNavDrawerOpen()) drawerLayout.CloseDrawers();
else
{
var backStackEntryCount = FragmentManager.BackStackEntryCount;
if (backStackEntryCount == 1) Finish();
else if (backStackEntryCount > 1) FragmentManager.PopBackStack();
else base.OnBackPressed();
}
}
And isNavDrawerOpen method:
bool isNavDrawerOpen()
{
return drawerLayout != null && drawerLayout.IsDrawerOpen(Android.Support.V4.View.GravityCompat.Start);
}
I still could not fix the issue through getBackStackEntryCount() and I solved my issue by making the main page a fragment too, so in the end I have an activity with a FrameLayout only; and all other fragments including the main page I inflate into that layout. This solved my issue.
I had the same problem when dealing with Firebase's Ui Login screen. When back button was pressed it left a blank screen.
To solve the problem I just called finish() in my onStop() method for said Activity. Worked like a charm.
If you have scenario like me where a list fragment opens another details fragment, and on back press you first need to show the list fragment and then get out the whole activity then, addToBackStack for all the fragment transactions.
and then on the activity, do like this (courtesy: #JRomero's answer, #MSaudi's comment)
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
int fragments = getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
if (fragments == 1) {
// make layout invisible since last fragment will be removed
}
super.onBackPressed();
}
Just Comment or Remove transaction.addToBackStack(null) in your code.Below is code to change fragment in kotlin.
fun ChangeFragment(activity: MainActivity, fragment: Fragment) {
val transaction: FragmentTransaction =
activity.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
transaction.replace(R.id.tabLayoutContainer, fragment)
transaction.commit()
}
I am playing with fragments in Android.
I know I can change a fragment by using the following code:
FragmentManager fragMgr = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragTrans = fragMgr.beginTransaction();
MyFragment myFragment = new MyFragment(); //my custom fragment
fragTrans.replace(android.R.id.content, myFragment);
fragTrans.addToBackStack(null);
fragTrans.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE);
fragTrans.commit();
My question is, in a Java file, how can I get the currently displayed Fragment instance?
When you add the fragment in your transaction you should use a tag.
fragTrans.replace(android.R.id.content, myFragment, "MY_FRAGMENT");
...and later if you want to check if the fragment is visible:
MyFragment myFragment = (MyFragment)getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag("MY_FRAGMENT");
if (myFragment != null && myFragment.isVisible()) {
// add your code here
}
See also http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html
I know it's an old post, but was having trouble with it previously too. Found a solution which was to do this in the onBackStackChanged() listening function
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
Fragment f = getActivity().getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
if(f instanceof CustomFragmentClass)
// do something with f
((CustomFragmentClass) f).doSomething();
}
This worked for me as I didn't want to iterate through every fragment I have to find one that is visible.
Here is my solution which I find handy for low fragment scenarios
public Fragment getVisibleFragment(){
FragmentManager fragmentManager = MainActivity.this.getSupportFragmentManager();
List<Fragment> fragments = fragmentManager.getFragments();
if(fragments != null){
for(Fragment fragment : fragments){
if(fragment != null && fragment.isVisible())
return fragment;
}
}
return null;
}
Every time when you show fragment you must put it tag into backstack:
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
ft.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_ENTER_MASK);
ft.add(R.id.primaryLayout, fragment, tag);
ft.addToBackStack(tag);
ft.commit();
And then when you need to get current fragment you may use this method:
public BaseFragment getActiveFragment() {
if (getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() == 0) {
return null;
}
String tag = getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryAt(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() - 1).getName();
return (BaseFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(tag);
}
Kotlin way;
val currentFragment = supportFragmentManager.fragments.last()
What I am using to find current displaying fragment is in below code. It is simple and it works for me by now. It runs in the activity which holds the fragments
FragmentManager fragManager = this.getSupportFragmentManager();
int count = this.getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();
Fragment frag = fragManager.getFragments().get(count>0?count-1:count);
The reactive way:
Observable.from(getSupportFragmentManager().getFragments())
.filter(fragment -> fragment.isVisible())
.subscribe(fragment1 -> {
// Do something with it
}, throwable1 -> {
//
});
My method is based on try / catch like this :
MyFragment viewer = null;
if(getFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(MY_TAG_FRAGMENT) instanceOf MyFragment){
viewer = (MyFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(MY_TAG_FRAGMENT);
}
But there may be a better way ...
If you are using the AndroidX Navigation:
val currentFragment = findNavController(R.id.your_navhost)?.currentDestination
For more info on this navigation component:
https://developer.android.com/guide/navigation/navigation-getting-started
Well, this question got lots of views and attention but still did not contained
the easiest solution from my end - to use getFragments().
List fragments = getSupportFragmentManager().getFragments();
mCurrentFragment = fragments.get(fragments.size() - 1);
You can query which fragment is loaded into your Activities content frame, and retrieve the fragment class, or fragment 'simple name' (as a string).
public String getCurrentFragment(){
return activity.getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.content_frame).getClass().getSimpleName();
}
Usage:
Log.d(TAG, getCurrentFragment());
Outputs:
D/MainActivity: FragOne
If get here and you are using Kotlin:
var fragment = supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container)
R.id.fragment_container is the id where the fragment is presenting on their activity
Or if you want a nicer solution:
supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.content_main)?.let {
// the fragment exists
if (it is FooFragment) {
// The presented fragment is FooFragment type
}
}
It's a bit late, But for anyone who is interested :
If you know the index of the your desired fragment in FragmentManager just get a reference to it and check for isMenuVisible() function! here :
getSupportFragmentManager().getFragments().get(0).isMenuVisible()
If true Its visible to user and so on!
1)
ft.replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment, **tag**).commit();
2)
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment currentFragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.content_frame);
3)
if (currentFragment.getTag().equals(**"Fragment_Main"**))
{
//Do something
}
else
if (currentFragment.getTag().equals(**"Fragment_DM"**))
{
//Do something
}
There's a method called findFragmentById() in SupportFragmentManager. I use it in the activity container like :
public Fragment currentFragment(){
return getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.activity_newsfeed_frame);
}
That's how to get your current Fragment. If you have custom Fragment and need to check what Fragment it is, I normally use instanceof :
if (currentFragment() instanceof MyFrag){
// Do something here
}
This should work -
val visibleFragment = supportFragmentManager.fragments.findLast { fgm -> fgm.isVisible }
Timber.d("backStackIterator: visibleFragment: $visibleFragment")
Inspired by Tainy's answer, here is my two cents. Little modified from most other implementations.
private Fragment getCurrentFragment() {
FragmentManager fragmentManager = myActivity.getSupportFragmentManager();
int stackCount = fragmentManager.getBackStackEntryCount();
if( fragmentManager.getFragments() != null ) return fragmentManager.getFragments().get( stackCount > 0 ? stackCount-1 : stackCount );
else return null;
}
Replace "myActivity" with "this" if it is your current activity or use reference to your activity.
This is simple way to get current fragment..
getFragmentManager().addOnBackStackChangedListener(new FragmentManager.OnBackStackChangedListener() {
#Override public void onBackStackChanged() {
currentFragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.content);
if (currentFragment != null && (currentFragment instanceof LoginScreenFragment)) {
logout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
} else {
logout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
});
Checkout this solution. It worked for me to get the current Fragment.
if(getSupportFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount() > 0){
android.support.v4.app.Fragment f =
getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
if(f instanceof ProfileFragment){
Log.d(TAG, "Profile Fragment");
}else if(f instanceof SavedLocationsFragment){
Log.d(TAG, "SavedLocations Fragment");
}else if(f instanceof AddLocationFragment){
Log.d(TAG, "Add Locations Fragment");
}
it's so simple, not that much code you need to write
yourFragment.isAdded()
or
yourFragment.isVisible();
I prefer isAdded(),both of them return boolean value use it in if condition and must initialize your fragment in onCreate() otherwise you will get null point exception.
None of the above 30 answers fully worked for me. But here is the answer that worked:
Using Kotlin, when using Navigation Component:
fun currentVisibleFragment(): Fragment? {
return supportFragmentManager.fragments.first()?.getChildFragmentManager()?.getFragments()?.get(0)
}
Sev's answer works for when you hit the back button or otherwise change the backstack.
I did something slightly different, though. I have a backstack change listener setup on a base Fragment and its derived fragments and this code is in the listener:
Fragment f = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.container);
if (f.getClass().equals(getClass())) {
// On back button, or popBackStack(),
// the fragment that's becoming visible executes here,
// but not the one being popped, or others on the back stack
// So, for my case, I can change action bar bg color per fragment
}
Easy way to do that :
Fragment fr=getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
String fragmentName = fr.getClass().getSimpleName();
I had to do this very recently
public Fragment getCurrentFragment() {
return fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.container);
}
and finaly i got last fragment on this container.
final FragmentManager fm=this.getSupportFragmentManager();
final Fragment fragment=fm.findFragmentByTag("MY_FRAGMENT");
if(fragment != null && fragment.isVisible()){
Log.i("TAG","my fragment is visible");
}
else{
Log.i("TAG","my fragment is not visible");
}
If you are getting the current instance of Fragment from the parent activity you can just
findFragmentByID(R.id.container);
This actually get's the current instance of fragment that's populated on the view. I had the same issue. I had to load the same fragment twice keeping one on backstack.
The following method doesn't work. It just gets a Fragment that has the tag. Don't waste your time on this method. I am sure it has it's uses but to get the most recent version of the same Fragment is not one of them.
findFragmentByTag()
Kotlin safer way than exposed here
supportFragmentManager.fragments.lastOrNull()?.let { currentFragment ->
//Do something here
}
This is work for me. I hope this will hepl someone.
FragmentManager fragmentManager = this.getSupportFragmentManager();
String tag = fragmentManager
.getBackStackEntryAt(
fragmentManager
.getBackStackEntryCount() - 1)
.getName();
Log.d("This is your Top Fragment name: ", ""+tag);
I found findFragmentByTag isn't that convenient. If you have String currentFragmentTag in your Activity or parent Fragment, you need to save it in onSaveInstanceState and restore it in onCreate. Even if you do so, when the Activity recreated, onAttachFragment will called before onCreate, so you can't use currentFragmentTag in onAttachFragment(eg. update some views based on currentFragmentTag), because it's might not yet restored.
I use the following code:
Fragment getCurrentFragment() {
List<Fragment> fragments = getSupportFragmentManager().getFragments();
if(fragments.isEmpty()) {
return null;
}
return fragments.get(fragments.size()-1);
}
The document of FragmentManager state that
The order of the fragments in the list is the order in which they were added or attached.
When you need to do stuff based on current fragment type, just use getCurrentFragment() instance of MyFragment instead of currentFragmentTag.equals("my_fragment_tag").
Note that getCurrentFragment() in onAttachFragment will not get the attaching Fragment, but the previous attached one.
getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.content_frame).getClass().getSimpleName();
Well, I guess this is the most straight forward answer to this question.
I hope this helps.
In my main.xml I have
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frameTitle"
android:padding="5dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:background="#drawable/title_bg">
<fragment
android:name="com.fragment.TitleFragment"
android:id="#+id/fragmentTag"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</FrameLayout>
And I'm setting fragment object like this
FragmentManager fragmentManager = activity.getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
Fragment newFragment = new FragmentType1();
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.frameTitle, casinodetailFragment, "fragmentTag");
// fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack(null);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
It is setting different types of Fragment objects (FragmentType2,FragmentType3,...) at different time. Now at some point of time I need to identify which object is currently there.
In short I need to do something like this:
Fragment currentFragment = //what is the way to get current fragment object in FrameLayout R.id.frameTitle
I tried the following
TitleFragment titleFragmentById = (TitleFragment) fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.frameTitle);
and
TitleFragment titleFragmentByTag = (TitleFragment) fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("fragmentTag");
But both the objects (titleFragmentById and titleFragmentByTag ) are null
Did I miss something?
I'm using Compatibility Package, r3 and developing for API level 7.
findFragmentById() and findFragmentByTag() will work if we have set fragment using fragmentTransaction.replace or fragmentTransaction.add, but will return null if we have set the object at xml (like what I have done in my main.xml). I think I'm missing something in my XML files.
Now at some point of time I need to identify which object is currently there
Call findFragmentById() on FragmentManager and determine which fragment is in your R.id.frameTitle container.
If you are using the androidx edition of Fragment — as you should in modern apps — , use getSupportFragmentManager() on your FragmentActivity/AppCompatActivity instead of getFragmentManager()
Try this,
Fragment currentFragment = getActivity().getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
this will give u the current fragment, then you may compare it to the fragment class and do your stuffs.
if (currentFragment instanceof NameOfYourFragmentClass) {
Log.v(TAG, "find the current fragment");
}
I think you can use onAttachFragment event may be useful to catch which fragment is active.
#Override
public void onAttachFragment(Fragment fragment) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onAttachFragment(fragment);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), String.valueOf(fragment.getId()), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
I think you should do:
Fragment currentFragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentByTag("fragmentTag");
The reason is because you set the tag "fragmentTag" to the last fragment you have added (when you called replace).
You can get the list of the fragments and look to the last one.
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
List<Fragment> fragments = fm.getFragments();
Fragment lastFragment = fragments.get(fragments.size() - 1);
But sometimes (when you navigate back) list size remains same but some of the last elements are null. So in the list I iterated to the last not null fragment and used it.
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
if (fm != null) {
List<Fragment> fragments = fm.getFragments();
if (fragments != null) {
for(int i = fragments.size() - 1; i >= 0; i--){
Fragment fragment = fragments.get(i);
if(fragment != null) {
// found the current fragment
// if you want to check for specific fragment class
if(fragment instanceof YourFragmentClass) {
// do something
}
break;
}
}
}
}
This is the simplest solution and work for me.
1.) you add your fragment
ft.replace(R.id.container_layout, fragment_name, "fragment_tag").commit();
2.)
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment currentFragment = fragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.container_layout);
if(currentFragment.getTag().equals("fragment_tag"))
{
//Do something
}
else
{
//Do something
}
It might be late but I hope it helps someone else, also #CommonsWare has posted the correct answer.
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment fragment_byID = fm.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_id);
//OR
Fragment fragment_byTag = fm.findFragmentByTag("fragment_tag");
Maybe the simplest way is:
public MyFragment getVisibleFragment(){
FragmentManager fragmentManager = MainActivity.this.getSupportFragmentManager();
List<Fragment> fragments = fragmentManager.getFragments();
for(Fragment fragment : fragments){
if(fragment != null && fragment.getUserVisibleHint())
return (MyFragment)fragment;
}
return null;
}
It worked for me
You can create field in your parent Activity Class:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public Fragment fr;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
}
And then inside each fragment class:
public class SomeFragment extends Fragment {
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater,
ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
((MainActivity) getActivity()).fr = this;
}
Your 'fr' field is current fragment Object
It's working also with popBackStack()
I know it's been a while, but I'll this here in case it helps someone out.
The right answer by far is (and the selected one) the one from CommonsWare. I was having the same problem as posted, the following
MyFragmentClass fragmentList =
(MyFragmentClass) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragementID);
kept on returning null. My mistake was really silly, in my xml file:
<fragment
android:tag="#+id/fragementID"
android:name="com.sf.lidgit_android.content.MyFragmentClass"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
The mistake was that I had android:tag INSTEAD OF android:id.
Do a check (which fragment in the activity container) in the onStart method;
#Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
Fragment fragmentCurrent = getSupportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.constraintLayout___activity_main___container);
}
Some check:
if (fragmentCurrent instanceof MenuFragment)
#Hammer response worked for me, im using to control a floating action button
final FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(final View view) {
android.app.Fragment currentFragment = getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.content_frame);
Log.d("VIE",String.valueOf(currentFragment));
if (currentFragment instanceof PerfilFragment) {
PerfilEdit(view, fab);
}
}
});
If you are extending from AbstractActivity, you could use the getFragments() method:
for (Fragment f : getFragments()) {
if (f instanceof YourClass) {
// do stuff here
}
}
If you are defining the fragment in the activity's XML layour then in the Activity make sure you call setContentView() before calling findFragmentById().
If you are using the BackStack...and ONLY if you are using the back stack, then try this:
rivate Fragment returnToPreviousFragment() {
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
Fragment topFrag = null;
int idx = fm.getBackStackEntryCount();
if (idx > 1) {
BackStackEntry entry = fm.getBackStackEntryAt(idx - 2);
topFrag = fm.findFragmentByTag(entry.getName());
}
fm.popBackStack();
return topFrag;
}
This will give you the current fragment class name -->
String fr_name = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container).getClass().getSimpleName();
you can check which fragment is currently loaded by this
supportFragmentManager.addOnBackStackChangedListener {
val myFragment = supportFragmentManager.fragments.last()
if (null != myFragment && myFragment is HomeFragment) {
//HomeFragment is visible or currently loaded
} else {
//your code
}
}
I use the following function in Kotlin:
supportFragmentManager.fragments.run {
getOrNull(size - 1)?.let { currentFragment ->
...
}
}
I recently worked on an activity involving multiple fragments so thought to share the method I used here:
Firstly, I declared a function getCurrentFragment() which returned me, yeah you guessed it, the current fragment, lol.
private fun getCurrentFragment(): Fragment? {
return supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentContainerView)
}
Then I override the onBackPressed function in the activity to define the navigation within fragments. Suppose, I wanted to show fragment 2 if user is in fragment 3 and presses back so I did something like this to achieve this
override fun onBackPressed() {
if (getCurrentFragment() is Fragment3) {
showFragment2()
} else {
super.onBackPressed()
}
}
And in showFragment2() I did something like this:
private fun showFragment2() {
val fragment = Fragment2.newInstance()
supportFragmentManager.commit {
replace(R.id.FragmentContainerView, fragment, "Add a tag here")
}
}
I think this should give better idea to people looking on how to navigate through fragments within an activity.
