How to center items of a recyclerview?

Question

I need to center elements in each row so they will be like in this mockup. I've been searching if there is any layout that works that way without look. items are centered in their rows.

This is how it looks now in my code.

Answer 1

Make recyclerview width to wrap_content and its container's layout_gravity to center_horizontal

 <LinearLayout
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:orientation="vertical">

      <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
           android:id="@+id/recycrer_view"
           android:layout_width="wrap_content"
           android:layout_height="wrap_content"
           android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
           android:paddingLeft="16dp"
           android:paddingRight="16dp" />
 </LinearLayout>

Answer 2

Take LinearLayout in your RecyclerView's item row layout then give android:layout_gravity="center" to LinearLayout.

For each row of images you have to take different LinearLayout.

Here is example code:

 <LinearLayout
         android:layout_width="wrap_content"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:layout_gravity="center"
         android:orientation="horizontal">

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/image1"
                android:layout_width="64dp"
                android:layout_height="64dp"
                android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:src="@drawable/image1" />

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/image2"
                android:layout_width="64dp"
                android:layout_height="64dp"
                android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
                android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:src="@drawable/image2" />

           <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/image3"
                android:layout_width="64dp"
                android:layout_height="64dp"
                android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
                android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:src="@drawable/image3" />

  </LinearLayout>
