Android Navigation View set menu programmatically

Question

In my app I want to pass certain menu depending of some condition.

This is the layout:

 <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
        android:id="@+id/nav_view_free"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        android:background="@color/Color_White"
        app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
        app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer_1"
        />

All I want to do is to change dynamically the @menu/activity_main_drawer_1 depending of some condition.

How can I do this programmatically?

Answer 1

Use inflateMenu on your NavigationView.

For example:

navigationView.getMenu().clear();
navigationView.inflateMenu(R.menu.menu_view);

See here for more information.

Answer 2

navigationView.getMenu().clear(); navigationView.inflateMenu(R.menu.your_menu);
