ExpandableLayout provides an easy way to create a view called header with an expandable view. Both view are external layout to allow a maximum of customization. You can find a sample that how to use an ExpandableLayout to your layout.
The lib is available via jCentre
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.saeedjassani:expandablelayout:1.0.3'
}
Declare an ExpandableLayout inside your XML layout file. You also need to other layouts for header and content:
<com.github.saeedjassani.ExpandableLayout
android:id="@+id/expandableLayout"
xmlns:expandable="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
expandable:el_headerLayout="@layout/view_header"
expandable:el_contentLayout="@layout/view_content"/>
You can use ExapandableLayout in an ExpandableLayoutListView with ExpandableLayoutItem as row :
ExpandableLayoutItem
<com.github.saeedjassani.ExpandableLayoutItem
android:id="@+id/expandableLayout"
xmlns:expandable="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
expandable:el_headerLayout="@layout/view_header"
expandable:el_contentLayout="@layout/view_content"/>
ExpandableLayoutListView
<com.github.saeedjassani.ExpandableLayoutListView
android:id="@+id/expandableLayout"
xmlns:expandable="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
If you want to manage the OnScroll, you have to use OnExpandableLayoutScrollListener and don't forget to call super in each method.
You can call dynamically open, close and isOpened from an ExpandableLayout object.
You can change duration of the animation:
- app:duration [integer def:200] --> Duration of the animation
If you want to use the ExpandableLayoutListView with EditText, you have to set android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" to prevent the ListView to redraw itself and close the ExpandableLayoutItem.
Thanks to Google for its ExpandableListview :)
This library is actually a fork of this library. All credits to the original developer. Since that library was not maintained, I uploaded it and will try to accept PRs.
