How to set onItemClickListener for RecyclerView?

I'm trying to implement a recyclerView but how can I set an onItemClickListener for my recyclerView?

There are already some answers on SO but they are briefer than what I just need to get the onItemClickListener for RecyclerView.

What is the easiest way to get the onItemClickListener for RecyclerView?

In Android, RecyclerView doesn’t have any listeners like in ListView. So you need to create your own class by extending the RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener.

Create a class RecyclerTouchListener.java

import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.GestureDetector;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;

public class RecyclerTouchListener implements RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener {

  private GestureDetector gestureDetector;
  private ClickListener clickListener;

public RecyclerTouchListener(Context context, final RecyclerView recyclerView, final ClickListener clickListener) {
    this.clickListener = clickListener;
    gestureDetector = new GestureDetector(context, new GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) {

            return true;

        }

        @Override
        public void onLongPress(MotionEvent e) {

            View child = recyclerView.findChildViewUnder(e.getX(), e.getY());

            if (child != null && clickListener != null) {

                clickListener.onLongClick(child, recyclerView.getChildAdapterPosition(child));

            }
        }
    });
}

@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {

    View child = rv.findChildViewUnder(e.getX(), e.getY());

    if (child != null && clickListener != null && gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(e)) {

        clickListener.onClick(child, rv.getChildAdapterPosition(child));

    }
    return false;
}

@Override
public void onTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {
}

@Override
public void onRequestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean disallowIntercept) {

}

public interface ClickListener {

    void onClick(View view, int position);

    void onLongClick(View view, int position);
   }
 }

Then in activity, Override the onClick method.

 recyclerView.addOnItemTouchListener(new RecyclerTouchListener(context, recyclerView, new RecyclerTouchListener.ClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view, int position) {

         //   Toast.makeText(getActivity(), position+ " is selected successfully", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                //handle click event

        }

        @Override
        public void onLongClick(View view, int position) {

        }
    }));

By this way, you can handle recyclerview item click event.
