Is there a way to find item and scroll to that viewholder using PagingDataAdapter?

Question

I'm using Android Paging Library 3. Is there a way to find item and scroll to that viewholder using PagingDataAdapter? As I'm not able to access the item list. Or I have no choice but have to use normal list adapter?

Answer 1

The next version of paging (3.0.0-alpha04) will add .peek(index) and .snapshot() APIs to allow presented item access post-transformations of loaded data.

In the meantime the workaround is to use PagingDataAdapter.getItem() but this is suboptimal because it triggers page fetch.
