**`PrimeAdapter`** makes working with `RecyclerView` easier by separating required code in a few simple and well-structured classes.
It brings simplicity when you have multiple view types in a `RecyclerView`.
By using annotation processing, it generates unique view types automatically to make the code more clear.
You can use **`PrimeAdapter`** in both [Kotlin](https://github.com/aminography/PrimeAdapter/tree/master/sample-app) and [Java](https://github.com/aminography/PrimeAdapter/tree/master/java-sample-app) Android projects as the sample apps are written.

Download
--------
Add the following lines to your `build.gradle` file:
```gradle
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

repositories {
jcenter()
}

dependencies {
implementation 'com.aminography:primeadapter:1.0.14'
compileOnly 'com.aminography:primeadapter-annotation:1.0.14'
kapt 'com.aminography:primeadapter-processor:1.0.14'
}
```

* If you write code in Java, you should also add kotlin dependency too:
```gradle
dependencies {
implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:1.3.50'
}
```


How to use `PrimeAdapter`?
--------

You should create both **data holder** and **view holder** classes for each type of view that you want to show in `RecyclerView`.


**1.** It's necessary to add [`@DataHolder`](https://github.com/aminography/PrimeAdapter) annotation above all data holder classes which inherits from `PrimeDataHolder`:

```kotlin
@DataHolder
data class ActorDataHolder(
val name: String
) : PrimeDataHolder()
```

**2.** Each view holder class should inherit from `PrimeViewHolder` and specify related data holder as a type parameter like following:

```kotlin
class ActorViewHolder(
delegate: PrimeDelegate
) : PrimeViewHolder(delegate, R.layout.list_item) {

override fun bindDataToView(dataHolder: ActorDataHolder) {
with(itemView) {
nameTextView.text = dataHolder.name
}
}
}
```

**3.** Your custom adapter class must inherit from **`PrimeAdapter`** that decides to make view holder instance based on data holder type.
Follow this pattern:

```kotlin
class ActorAdapter : PrimeAdapter() {

override fun makeViewHolder(dataHolderClass: Class<*>?): PrimeViewHolder<*>? {
return when (dataHolderClass) {
ActorDataHolder::class.java -> ActorViewHolder(this)
else -> null
}
}
}
```

**4.** Finally, you can instantiate your custom adapter using **`PrimeAdapter`** builder mechanism.

```kotlin
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

val adapter = PrimeAdapter.with(recyclerView)
.setLayoutManager(LinearLayoutManager(activity))
.set()
.build(ActorAdapter::class.java)

val dataList = mutableListOf()
dataList.add(ActorDataHolder("Tom Hanks"))
dataList.add(ActorDataHolder("Morgan Freeman"))
dataList.add(ActorDataHolder("Robert De Niro"))
adapter.replaceDataList(dataList)
}
```


Extra Features
--------

### Handling Item Clicks
**`PrimeAdapter`** helps you handle `RecyclerView` items click events,
simply by `setItemClickListener()` with an `OnRecyclerViewItemClickListener` argument when you're building an adapter instance or later:

```kotlin
val onRecyclerViewItemClickListener = object: OnRecyclerViewItemClickListener{
override fun onItemClick(primeDataHolder: PrimeDataHolder) {
// do something
}
override fun onItemLongClick(primeDataHolder: PrimeDataHolder) {
// do something
}
}

// In builder pattern:
val adapter = PrimeAdapter.with(recyclerView)
...
.setItemClickListener(onRecyclerViewItemClickListener)
...
.build(ActorAdapter::class.java)

// or after adapter instantiation:
adapter.setItemClickListener(onRecyclerViewItemClickListener)
```


### Draggability
**`PrimeAdapter`** helps you make the `RecyclerView` items draggable.
It would be activated/deactivated by calling `setDraggable(true)`/`setDraggable(false)` on a builder or an adapter instance.
Optionally, you can get notified about item movements by calling `setItemDragListener()` and passing an `OnRecyclerViewItemDragListener` instance to it.

```kotlin
adapter.setDraggable(true)
adapter.setItemDragListener(object: OnRecyclerViewItemDragListener{
override fun onItemMoved(fromPosition: Int, toPosition: Int) {
// do something
}
})
```
It is necessary to introduce a view as handle of dragging in view holders which are going to be draggable:

```kotlin
class ActorViewHolder(
delegate: PrimeDelegate
) : PrimeViewHolder(delegate, R.layout.list_item) {

init {
setDragHandle(itemView)
}
...
}
```


### Expandability
Another feature of **`PrimeAdapter`** is making the implementation of `RecyclerView` items expansion easier.
Calling the `setExpandable(true)`/`setExpandable(false)` on a builder or on adapter instance changes its activation.

```kotlin
adapter.setExpandable(true)
```

To see how to implement it, please check the [related example code][2].


### Custom Skippable Divider
Showing custom divider lines is a good feature that **`PrimeAdapter`** provides.
Calling the `setDivider()` on a builder or on adapter instance leads to show default divider line between items.
It's possible to pass it a custom `Drawable` instance or simply a color to change the divider looking.
Also we can set inset for divider drawables in pixels.

```kotlin
//----- default divider:
adapter.setDivider()

//----- divider with custom drawable:
adapter.setDivider(ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, R.drawable.divider))

//----- divider with custom color:
adapter.setDivider(Color.RED)

//----- divider with custom color and custom inset:
adapter.setDivider(Color.RED, insetLeft = 16, insetRight = 16)

//----- deactivate dividers:
adapter.setDivider(null)
```
By default dividers are shown for all items except the last one.
It's easy to skip some items divider by setting `hasDivider` property to `false` on their data holder instances.

```kotlin
adapter.getItem(position).hasDivider = false
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged()
```


ProGuard
--------
If you want to create a release version of your app, you need to include the following lines in the app level proguard file:
```pro
-keep class com.aminography.primeadapter.ViewTypeManager { *; }
-keepclassmembers class ** {
@com.aminography.primeadapter.annotation.DataHolder *;
}
```
