I am trying to refresh the current fragment in the tabbed layout of my viewpager. I have one fragment (UserProgressFragment) that creates the ViewPager and sets the adapter (UserProgressAdapter) along with creating tabbed layout.
In my UserProgressAdapter, in the getItem() method I am returning two other fragments, (UserWeightTrackerFragment and UserCalorieCounterFragment) based on which tab i am on.
My issue is how do i refresh the fragment and update its content/view from the UserCalorieCounterFragment on a button click, because access to the viewpager and adapter are set in the UserProgressFragment? I have considered notifyDataChange for the adapter but i dont know how to call this from this class as it is set up on the UserProgressFragment class. The purpose of wanting to refresh this page is to update a specific view which is a chart, if context is needed.
I have attached the code below:
public class UserProgressFragment extends Fragment{
public static UserProgressFragment newInstance() {
return new UserProgressFragment();
}
public UserProgressFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_user_progress, container, false);
ViewPager viewPager = view.findViewById(R.id.progress_viewpager);
viewPager.setAdapter(new UserProgressTabsAdapter(getChildFragmentManager()));
TabLayout tabLayout = view.findViewById(R.id.progress_sliding_tabs);
tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager, true);
return view;
}
}
public class UserProgressTabsAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {
private static final int PAGE_COUNT = 2;
private String tabTitles[] = new String[]{"Weight Tracker", "Calorie Counter"};
public UserProgressTabsAdapter(FragmentManager fm) {
super(fm);
}
@Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
switch (position) {
case 0:
return UserWeightTrackerFragment.newInstance(position);
case 1:
return UserCalorieCounterFragment.newInstance(position + 1);
}
return null;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
return PAGE_COUNT;
}
@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
// Generate title based on item position
return tabTitles[position];
}
public class UserCalorieCounterFragment extends Fragment implements View.OnClickListener, AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener {
public static final String ARG_PAGE = "ARG_PAGE";
public static UserCalorieCounterFragment newInstance(int page) {
Bundle args = new Bundle();
args.putInt(ARG_PAGE, page);
UserCalorieCounterFragment fragment = new UserCalorieCounterFragment();
fragment.setArguments(args);
return fragment;
}
public UserCalorieCounterFragment() {
// Required empty public constructor
}
@Override
public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
int mPage = getArguments().getInt(ARG_PAGE);
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// Inflate the layout for this fragment
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_user_calorie_counter, container, false);
Button mAddCalories = view.findViewById(R.id.btn_add_calorie);
mAddCalories.setOnClickListener(this);
return view;
}
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
switch (view.getId()) {
case R.id.btn_add_calorie:
//REFRESH/UPDATE HERE
break;
}
}
You can create a public method in your fragment which contains the view pager which will contain the notifyDataSetChanged()
function. And in the view pager fragment/item, you can call getParentFragment()
and type cast it to your parent/first fragment and access that public method to notifyDataSetChanged()
.
