I am using Navigation from Android Jetpack to navigate between screens. Now I want to set startDestination dynamically.
I have an Activity named MainActivity And two Fragments, FragmentA & FragmentB.
var isAllSetUp : Boolean = // It is dynamic and I’m getting this from Preferences.
If(isAllSetUp)
{
// show FragmentA
}
else
{
//show FragmentB
}
I want to set above flow using Navigation Architecture Component. Currently I have used startDestionation as below but it’s not fulfilling my requirement.
<navigation xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/lrf_navigation"
app:startDestination="@id/fragmentA">
<fragment
android:id="@+id/fragmentA"
android:name="com.mindinventory.FragmentA"
android:label="fragment_a"
tools:layout="@layout/fragment_a" />
</navigation>
Is it possible to set startDestination conditionally using Android Navigation Architecture Component?
Finally, I got a solution to my query...
Put below code in onCreate()
method of Activity
.
Kotlin code
val navHostFragment = (supportFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.home_nav_fragment) as NavHostFragment)
val inflater = navHostFragment.navController.navInflater
val graph = inflater.inflate(R.navigation.nav_main)
//graph.addArgument("argument", NavArgument)
graph.setStartDestination(R.id.fragment1)
//or
//graph.setStartDestination(R.id.fragment2)
navHostFragment.navController.graph = graph
Java code
NavHostFragment navHostFragment = (NavHostFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.home_nav_fragment); // Hostfragment
NavInflater inflater = navHostFragment.getNavController().getNavInflater();
NavGraph graph = inflater.inflate(R.navigation.nav_main);
//graph.addArgument("argument", NavArgument)
graph.setStartDestination(R.id.fragment1);
navHostFragment.getNavController().setGraph(graph);
navHostFragment.getNavController().getGraph().setDefaultArguments(getIntent().getExtras());
NavigationView navigationView = findViewById(R.id.navigationView);
NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navigationView, navHostFragment.getNavController());
Additional Info
As @artnest suggested, remove the app:navGraph
attribute from the layout. It would look something like this after removal
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<androidx.fragment.app.FragmentContainerView
android:id="@+id/home_nav_fragment"
android:name="androidx.navigation.fragment.NavHostFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:defaultNavHost="true" />
</FrameLayout>
In the case of a fragment
tag used instead of FragmentContainerView
, the above changes remain the same
