dynamically add and remove view to viewpager

After figuring out which ViewPager methods are called by ViewPager and which are for other purposes, I came up with a solution. I present it here since I see a lot of people have struggled with this and I didn't see any other relevant answers.

First, here's my adapter; hopefully comments within the code are sufficient:

public class MainPagerAdapter extends PagerAdapter
{
  // This holds all the currently displayable views, in order from left to right.
  private ArrayList<View> views = new ArrayList<View>();

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Used by ViewPager.  "Object" represents the page; tell the ViewPager where the
  // page should be displayed, from left-to-right.  If the page no longer exists,
  // return POSITION_NONE.
  @Override
  public int getItemPosition (Object object)
  {
    int index = views.indexOf (object);
    if (index == -1)
      return POSITION_NONE;
    else
      return index;
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Used by ViewPager.  Called when ViewPager needs a page to display; it is our job
  // to add the page to the container, which is normally the ViewPager itself.  Since
  // all our pages are persistent, we simply retrieve it from our "views" ArrayList.
  @Override
  public Object instantiateItem (ViewGroup container, int position)
  {
    View v = views.get (position);
    container.addView (v);
    return v;
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Used by ViewPager.  Called when ViewPager no longer needs a page to display; it
  // is our job to remove the page from the container, which is normally the
  // ViewPager itself.  Since all our pages are persistent, we do nothing to the
  // contents of our "views" ArrayList.
  @Override
  public void destroyItem (ViewGroup container, int position, Object object)
  {
    container.removeView (views.get (position));
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Used by ViewPager; can be used by app as well.
  // Returns the total number of pages that the ViewPage can display.  This must
  // never be 0.
  @Override
  public int getCount ()
  {
    return views.size();
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Used by ViewPager.
  @Override
  public boolean isViewFromObject (View view, Object object)
  {
    return view == object;
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Add "view" to right end of "views".
  // Returns the position of the new view.
  // The app should call this to add pages; not used by ViewPager.
  public int addView (View v)
  {
    return addView (v, views.size());
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Add "view" at "position" to "views".
  // Returns position of new view.
  // The app should call this to add pages; not used by ViewPager.
  public int addView (View v, int position)
  {
    views.add (position, v);
    return position;
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Removes "view" from "views".
  // Retuns position of removed view.
  // The app should call this to remove pages; not used by ViewPager.
  public int removeView (ViewPager pager, View v)
  {
    return removeView (pager, views.indexOf (v));
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Removes the "view" at "position" from "views".
  // Retuns position of removed view.
  // The app should call this to remove pages; not used by ViewPager.
  public int removeView (ViewPager pager, int position)
  {
    // ViewPager doesn't have a delete method; the closest is to set the adapter
    // again.  When doing so, it deletes all its views.  Then we can delete the view
    // from from the adapter and finally set the adapter to the pager again.  Note
    // that we set the adapter to null before removing the view from "views" - that's
    // because while ViewPager deletes all its views, it will call destroyItem which
    // will in turn cause a null pointer ref.
    pager.setAdapter (null);
    views.remove (position);
    pager.setAdapter (this);

    return position;
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Returns the "view" at "position".
  // The app should call this to retrieve a view; not used by ViewPager.
  public View getView (int position)
  {
    return views.get (position);
  }

  // Other relevant methods:

  // finishUpdate - called by the ViewPager - we don't care about what pages the
  // pager is displaying so we don't use this method.
}

And here's some snips of code showing how to use the adapter.

class MainActivity extends Activity
{
  private ViewPager pager = null;
  private MainPagerAdapter pagerAdapter = null;

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  @Override
  public void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState)
  {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView (R.layout.main_activity);

    ... do other initialization, such as create an ActionBar ...

    pagerAdapter = new MainPagerAdapter();
    pager = (ViewPager) findViewById (R.id.view_pager);
    pager.setAdapter (pagerAdapter);

    // Create an initial view to display; must be a subclass of FrameLayout.
    LayoutInflater inflater = context.getLayoutInflater();
    FrameLayout v0 = (FrameLayout) inflater.inflate (R.layout.one_of_my_page_layouts, null);
    pagerAdapter.addView (v0, 0);
    pagerAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Here's what the app should do to add a view to the ViewPager.
  public void addView (View newPage)
  {
    int pageIndex = pagerAdapter.addView (newPage);
    // You might want to make "newPage" the currently displayed page:
    pager.setCurrentItem (pageIndex, true);
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Here's what the app should do to remove a view from the ViewPager.
  public void removeView (View defunctPage)
  {
    int pageIndex = pagerAdapter.removeView (pager, defunctPage);
    // You might want to choose what page to display, if the current page was "defunctPage".
    if (pageIndex == pagerAdapter.getCount())
      pageIndex--;
    pager.setCurrentItem (pageIndex);
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Here's what the app should do to get the currently displayed page.
  public View getCurrentPage ()
  {
    return pagerAdapter.getView (pager.getCurrentItem());
  }

  //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // Here's what the app should do to set the currently displayed page.  "pageToShow" must
  // currently be in the adapter, or this will crash.
  public void setCurrentPage (View pageToShow)
  {
    pager.setCurrentItem (pagerAdapter.getItemPosition (pageToShow), true);
  }
}

Finally, you can use the following for your activity_main.xml layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/view_pager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

</android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>

I was looking for simple solution to remove views from viewpager (no fragments) dynamically. So, if you have some info, that your pages belongs to, you can set it to View as tag. Just like that (adapter code):

@Override
public Object instantiateItem(ViewGroup collection, int position)
{
    ImageView iv = new ImageView(mContext);
    MediaMessage msg = mMessages.get(position);
    ...

    iv.setTag(media);
    return iv;
}

@Override
public int getItemPosition (Object object)
{
    View o = (View) object;
    int index = mMessages.indexOf(o.getTag());
    if (index == -1)
        return POSITION_NONE;
    else
        return index;
}

You just need remove your info from mMessages, and then call notifyDataSetChanged() for your adapter. Bad news there is no animation in this case.


There are quite a few discussions around this topic

  • ViewPager PagerAdapter not updating the View
  • Update ViewPager dynamically?
  • Removing fragments from FragmentStatePagerAdapter

Although we see it often, using POSITION_NONE does not seem to be the way to go as it is very inefficient memory-wise.

Here in this question, we should consider using Alvaro's approach:

... is to setTag() method in instantiateItem() when instantiating a new view. Then instead of using notifyDataSetChanged(), you can use findViewWithTag() to find the view you want to update.

Here is a SO answer with code based on this idea


I did a similar program. hope this would help you.In its first activity four grid data can be selected. On the next activity, there is a view pager which contains two mandatory pages.And 4 more pages will be there, which will be visible corresponding to the grid data selected.

Following is the mainactivty MainActivity

                if(Iport4==1)
                    i.putExtra("6", "TabFragment6");
                else
                    i.putExtra("6","");
                dbHelper.updateContact(0, Iport1);
                dbHelper.updateContact(1, Iport2);
                dbHelper.updateContact(2, Iport3);
                dbHelper.updateContact(3, Iport4);
                startActivity(i);
            }
        });
    }
}

Here TabFragment1,TabFragment2 etc are fragment to be displayed on the viewpager.And I am not showing the layouts since they are out of scope of this project.

Here's an alternative solution to this question. My adapter:

    private class PagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter implements 
                    ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener, TabListener {

    private List<Fragment> mFragments = new ArrayList<Fragment>();
    private ViewPager mPager;
    private ActionBar mActionBar;

    private Fragment mPrimaryItem;

    public PagerAdapter(FragmentManager fm, ViewPager vp, ActionBar ab) {
        super(fm);
        mPager = vp;
        mPager.setAdapter(this);
        mPager.setOnPageChangeListener(this);
        mActionBar = ab;
    }

    public void addTab(PartListFragment frag) {
        mFragments.add(frag);
        mActionBar.addTab(mActionBar.newTab().setTabListener(this).
                            setText(frag.getPartCategory()));
    }

    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(int position) {
        return mFragments.get(position);
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        return mFragments.size();
    }

    /** (non-Javadoc)
     * @see android.support.v4.app.FragmentStatePagerAdapter#setPrimaryItem(android.view.ViewGroup, int, java.lang.Object)
     */
    @Override
    public void setPrimaryItem(ViewGroup container, int position,
            Object object) {
        super.setPrimaryItem(container, position, object);
        mPrimaryItem = (Fragment) object;
    }

    /** (non-Javadoc)
     * @see android.support.v4.view.PagerAdapter#getItemPosition(java.lang.Object)
     */
    @Override
    public int getItemPosition(Object object) {
        if (object == mPrimaryItem) {
            return POSITION_UNCHANGED;
        }
        return POSITION_NONE;
    }

    @Override
    public void onTabSelected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) {
        mPager.setCurrentItem(tab.getPosition());
    }

    @Override
    public void onTabUnselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) { }

    @Override
    public void onTabReselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction ft) { }

    @Override
    public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int arg0) { }

    @Override
    public void onPageScrolled(int arg0, float arg1, int arg2) { }

    @Override
    public void onPageSelected(int position) {
        mActionBar.setSelectedNavigationItem(position);
    }

    /**
     * This method removes the pages from ViewPager
     */
    public void removePages() {
        mActionBar.removeAllTabs();

                    //call to ViewPage to remove the pages
        vp.removeAllViews();
        mFragments.clear();

        //make this to update the pager
        vp.setAdapter(null);
        vp.setAdapter(pagerAdapter);
    }
}

Code to remove and add dynamically

//remove the pages. basically call to method removeAllViews from `ViewPager`
pagerAdapter.removePages();

pagerAdapter.addPage(pass your fragment);

After the advice of Peri Hartman, it started to work after I set null do ViewPager adapter and put the adapter again after the views removed. Before this the page 0 doesnt showed its list contents.

Thanks.


I've created a custom PagerAdapters library to change items in PagerAdapters dynamically.

You can change items dynamically like following by using this library.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        /** ... **/
    adapter = new MyStatePagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager()
                            , new String[]{"1", "2", "3"});
    ((ViewPager)findViewById(R.id.view_pager)).setAdapter(adapter);
     adapter.add("4");
     adapter.remove(0);
}

class MyPagerAdapter extends ArrayViewPagerAdapter<String> {

    public MyPagerAdapter(String[] data) {
        super(data);
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, String item, int position) {
        View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_page, container, false);
        ((TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.item_txt)).setText(item);
        return v;
    }
}

Thils library also support pages created by Fragments.
