EternalViewPager

Android ViewPager with infinite/looping scroll

This library is a bit different original Viewpager how to use. You should specify a value based on the first value or the last value.

Usage

Layout xml

<com.star_zero.eternalviewpager.EternalViewPager
    android:id="@+id/viewpager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" ></com.star_zero.eternalviewpager.EternalViewPager>

Adapter

Implement class that inherit EternalPagerAdapter

public class SimpleAdapter extends EternalPagerAdapter<Integer> {
    private static final int START = 0;
    private static final int END = 10;
    public SimpleAdapter(FragmentManager fragmentManager, Integer initialKey) {
        // Pass the FragmentManager and the initial value.
        super(fragmentManager, initialKey);
    }
    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Fragment getItem(Integer key) {
        // Create and return Fragment.
        return SimpleFragment.createInstance(key);
    }
    @Nullable
    @Override
    protected Integer getNextKey(@NonNull Integer last) {
        // Return the next value.
        // If return null, stop scrolling.
        if (last == END) {
            return null;
        }
        return last + 1;
    }
    @Nullable
    @Override
    protected Integer getPrevKey(@NonNull Integer first) {
        // Return the previous value.
        // If return null, stop scrolling.
        if (first == START) {
            return null;
        }
        return first - 1;
    }
    @Nullable
    @Override
    protected Bundle saveKeysState(@NonNull ArrayList<Integer> keys) {
        // Save current state.
        Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
        bundle.putIntegerArrayList("keys", keys);
        return bundle;
    }
    @Nullable
    @Override
    protected List<Integer> restoreKeysState(@NonNull Bundle bundle) {
        // Restore state.
        return bundle.getIntegerArrayList("keys");
    }
}

At getNextKey or getPrevKey, you should return the next or previous value of the method parameter. If you return null, stop scrolling.

Activity/Fragment

SimpleAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), 0);
EternalViewPager viewpager = findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
viewpager.setAdapter(adapter);

For more usage, see sample.

Known Issues

• When scrolling continuously, it looks like reached last data. Then it can scroll again after a stop a moment. Because this library rearranges internal data when scrolling state is stopped.
• Using with TabLayout does not work fine. It’s strange behavior when scrolling.
