How to pass values between Fragments

Question

I am just trying to build a simple sample application that uses Fragments. My scenario is, I have two activities with one fragment inside each activity. The first fragment has an edittext and a button. The second fragment has a textview. When I enter a name in the edittext and click on the button, the textview in the second fragment should display the name entered in the edittext of the first fragment.

I was able to send the value from first fragment to its activity and then from that activity to second activity. Now how do I use this value inside the second fragment?

Here is the Java code:

package com.example.fragmentexample;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.Fragment;
import android.app.FragmentManager;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;

import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class Fragment_1 extends Fragment{

    OnFragmentChangedListener mCallback;

    // Container Activity must implement this interface
    public interface OnFragmentChangedListener {
        public void onButtonClicked(String name);
    }

    @Override
    public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
        super.onAttach(activity);

        // This makes sure that the container activity has implemented
        // the callback interface. If not, it throws an exception
        try {
            mCallback = (OnFragmentChangedListener) activity;
        } catch (ClassCastException e) {
            throw new ClassCastException(activity.toString()
                    + " must implement OnHeadlineSelectedListener");
        }
    }


    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_fragment_1, container, false);

        final EditText edtxtPersonName_Fragment = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.edtxtPersonName);
        Button btnSayHi_Fragment = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.btnSayHi);

        btnSayHi_Fragment.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                String name = edtxtPersonName_Fragment.getText().toString();

                FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
                Fragment_2 f2 = (Fragment_2) fm.findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_content_2);

                Activity activity = getActivity();

                if(activity != null)
                {
                    Toast.makeText(activity, "Say&ing Hi in Progress...", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                }


                if(f2 != null && f2.isInLayout())
                {
                    f2.setName(name);
                }
                else
                {
                    mCallback.onButtonClicked(name);
                }
            }
        });

        return view;

How do I get the value from the bundle in SecondActivity.java to the Fragment_2.Java file?

Answer 1

Step 1: To send data from a fragment to an activity

Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity().getBaseContext(),
                           TargetActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("message", message);
getActivity().startActivity(intent);

Step 2: To receive this data in an Activity:

Intent intent = getIntent();
String message = intent.getStringExtra("message");

Step 3: To send data from an activity to another activity, follow the normal approach

Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,
                           TargetActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("message", message);
startActivity(intent);

Step 4: To receive this data in an activity

  Intent intent = getIntent();
  String message = intent.getStringExtra("message");

Step 5.: From an Activity you can send data to a Fragment with the intent as:

Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("message", "From Activity");

// Set Fragmentclass Arguments
Fragmentclass fragobj = new Fragmentclass();
fragobj.setArguments(bundle);

And to receive a fragment in the Fragment onCreateView method:

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    String strtext = getArguments().getString("message");

    return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment, container, false);
}

Answer 2

// In Fragment_1.java

Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("key","abc"); // Put anything what you want

Fragment_2 fragment2 = new Fragment_2();
fragment2.setArguments(bundle);

getFragmentManager()
      .beginTransaction()
      .replace(R.id.content, fragment2)
      .commit();

// In Fragment_2.java

Bundle bundle = this.getArguments();

if(bundle != null){
     // handle your code here.
}

Hope this help you.

Answer 3

As noted at developer site

Often you will want one Fragment to communicate with another, for example to change the content based on a user event. All Fragment-to-Fragment communication is done through the associated Activity. Two Fragments should never communicate directly.

communication between fragments should be done through the associated Activity.

Let's have the following components:

An activity hosts fragments and allow fragments communication

FragmentA first fragment which will send data

FragmentB second fragment which will receive datas from FragmentA

FragmentA's implementation is:

public class FragmentA extends Fragment 
{
    DataPassListener mCallback;
    
    public interface DataPassListener{
        public void passData(String data);
    }

    @Override
    public void onAttach(Context context) 
    {
        super.onAttach(context);
        // This makes sure that the host activity has implemented the callback interface
        // If not, it throws an exception
        try 
        {
            mCallback = (OnImageClickListener) context;
        }
        catch (ClassCastException e) 
        {
            throw new ClassCastException(context.toString()+ " must implement OnImageClickListener");
        }
    }
    
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        // Suppose that when a button clicked second FragmentB will be inflated
        // some data on FragmentA will pass FragmentB
        // Button passDataButton = (Button).........
        
        passDataButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (view.getId() == R.id.passDataButton) {
                    mCallback.passData("Text to pass FragmentB");
                }
            }
        });
    }
}

MainActivity implementation is:

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements DataPassListener{
    
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        
        if (findViewById(R.id.container) != null) {
            if (savedInstanceState != null) {
                return;
            }
            getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .add(R.id.container, new FragmentA()).commit();
        }
    }
    
    @Override
    public void passData(String data) {
        FragmentB fragmentB = new FragmentB ();
        Bundle args = new Bundle();
        args.putString(FragmentB.DATA_RECEIVE, data);
        fragmentB .setArguments(args);
        getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
            .replace(R.id.container, fragmentB )
            .commit();
    }
}

FragmentB implementation is:

public class FragmentB extends Fragment{
    final static String DATA_RECEIVE = "data_receive";
    TextView showReceivedData;
    
    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_B, container, false);
        showReceivedData = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.showReceivedData);
    }
    
    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        super.onStart();
        Bundle args = getArguments();
        if (args != null) {
            showReceivedData.setText(args.getString(DATA_RECEIVE));
        }
    }
}

I hope this will help..

From the Developers website:

Often you will want one Fragment to communicate with another, for example to change the content based on a user event. All Fragment-to-Fragment communication is done through the associated Activity. Two Fragments should never communicate directly.

You can communicate among fragments with the help of its Activity. You can communicate among activity and fragment using this approach.

Please check this link also.

Answer 5

The latest solution for passing data between fragments can be implemented by using Android architectural components such as ViewModel and LiveData. With this solution, you don't need to define interface for communication and can get the advantages of using viewmodel like data survival due to configuration changes.

In this solution, the fragments involved in the communication share the same viewmodel object which is tied to their activity lifecycle. The view model object contains livedata object. One fragment sets data to be passed on livedata object and second fragment observers livedata changes and received the data.

Here is the complete example: Passing data between Android fragments using ViewModel

Answer 6

First, all answers are right. You can pass the data except custom objects by using Intent.

If you want to pass the custom objects, you have to implement Serialazable or Parcelable to your custom object class. I thought it's too much complicated...

So if your project is simple, try to use DataCache. That provides a super simple way for passing data. Ref: GitHub project CachePot

1- Set this to View or Activity or Fragment which will send data

DataCache.getInstance().push(obj);

2- Get data anywhere like below

public class MainFragment extends Fragment
{
    private YourObject obj;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        obj = DataCache.getInstance().pop(YourObject.class);

    } //end onCreate()
} //end class MainFragment

Answer 7

Kotlin way

Use a SharedViewModel proposed at the official ViewModel documentation

It's very common that two or more fragments in an activity need to communicate with each other. Imagine a common case of master-detail fragments, where you have a fragment in which the user selects an item from a list and another fragment that displays the contents of the selected item. This case is never trivial as both fragments need to define some interface description, and the owner activity must bind the two together. In addition, both fragments must handle the scenario where the other fragment is not yet created or visible.

This common pain point can be addressed by using ViewModel objects. These fragments can share a ViewModel using their activity scope to handle this communication

First implement fragment-ktx to instantiate your viewmodel more easily

dependencies {
    implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment-ktx:1.2.2"
}

Then, you just need to put the data you will be sharing with the other fragment inside the viewmodel:

class SharedViewModel : ViewModel() {
    val selected = MutableLiveData<Item>()

    fun select(item: Item) {
        selected.value = item
    }
}

Then, to finish up, just instantiate your viewModel in each fragment, and set the value of selected from the fragment you want to set the data

Fragment A

class MasterFragment : Fragment() {

    private val model: SharedViewModel by activityViewModels()

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
        itemSelector.setOnClickListener { item ->
        model.select(item)
      }

    }
}

And then, just listen for this value at your Fragment destination

Fragment B

 class DetailFragment : Fragment() {

        private val model: SharedViewModel by activityViewModels()

        override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
            super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
            model.selected.observe(viewLifecycleOwner, Observer<Item> { item ->
                // Update the UI
            })
        }
    }

You can also do it in the opposite way

Answer 8

Specially now that Android team is pushing more towards adhering to single activity models, communication between the fragments becomes all the more important. LiveData and Interfaces are perfectly fine ways to tackle this issue. But now Google has finally addressed this problem and tried to bring a much simpler solution using FragmentManager. Here's how it can be done in Kotlin.

In the receiver fragment, add a listener:

setFragmentResultListener(
    "data_request_key",
    lifecycleOwner,
    FragmentResultListener { requestKey: String, bundle: Bundle ->
        // Unpack the bundle and use data
        val frag1Str = bundle.getString("frag1_data_key")

    })

In the sender fragment (frag1):

setFragmentResult(
    "data_request_key",
    bundleOf("frag1_data_key" to value)
)

Remember this functionality is only available in fragment-ktx version 1.3.0-alpha04 and up.

Android Fragments: Fragment Result

Answer 9

Passing arguments between fragments. This is a fairly late to answer this question but it could help someone! Fragment_1.java

Bundle i = new Bundle(); 
            i.putString("name", "Emmanuel");

            Fragment_1 frag = new Fragment_1();
            frag.setArguments(i);
            FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
            fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.content_frame
                            , new Fragment_2())
                    .commit();

Then in your Fragment_2.java you can get the paramaters normally within your onActivityCreated e.g

 Intent intent = getActivity().getIntent();
    if (intent.getExtras() != null) {
        String name =intent.getStringExtra("name");
    }

Answer 10

I think a good way to solve this problem is to use a custom interface.

Let’s say you have two fragments (A and B) which are inside of the same activity and you want to send data from A to B.

Interface:

public interface OnDataSentListener{
    void onDataSent(Object data);
}

Activity:

    public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity{

            private OnDataSentListener onDataSentListener;

            @Override
            protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
                super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
                setContentView(R.layout.activity_activity);

                FragmentTransaction trans = getFragmentManager().beginTransaction();

                FragmentA fa = new FragmentA();
                FragmentB fb = new FragmentB();

               fa.setOnDataSentListener(new Listeners.OnDataSentListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onDataSent(Object data) {
                         if(onDataSentListener != null)  onDataSentListener.onDataSent(data);
                    }
               });

                transaction.add(R.id.frame_a, fa);
                transaction.add(R.id.frame_b, fb);

                transaction.commit();
            }

            public void setOnDataSentListener(OnDataSentListener listener){
                this.onDataSentListener = listener;
            }
        }

Fragment A:

public class FragmentA extends Fragment{

    private OnDataSentListener onDataSentListener;

    private void sendDataToFragmentB(Object data){
        if(onDataSentListener != null) onDataSentListener.onDataSent(data);
    }

    public void setOnDataSentListener(OnDataSentListener listener){
        this.onDataSentListener = listener;
    }
}

Fragment B:

public class FragmentB extends Fragment{

    private void initReceiver(){
        ((MyActivity) getActivity()).setOnDataSentListener(new OnDataSentListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDataSent(Object data) {
                // Here you receive the data from fragment A
            }
        });
    }
}

Answer 11

Communicating between fragments is fairly complicated (I find the listeners concept a little challenging to implement).

It is common to use a 'Event Bus" to abstract these communications. This is a third-party library that takes care of this communication for you.

'Otto' is one that is used often to do this, and might be worth looking into: http://square.github.io/otto/

Passing data from Fragment to another Fragment

• From first Fragment

  // Set data to pass
  MyFragment fragment = new MyFragment(); //Your Fragment
  Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
  bundle.putInt("year", 2017)  // Key, value
  fragment.setArguments(bundle); 
  // Pass data to other Fragment
  getFragmentManager()
   .beginTransaction()
   .replace(R.id.content, fragment)
   .commit(); 
  

• On Second Fragment

  @Override
  public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
       Bundle bundle = this.getArguments();
       if (bundle != null) {
           Int receivedYear = bundle.getInt("year", ""); // Key, default value
       } 
  }
  

Answer 13

This simple implementation helps to pass data between fragments in a simple way. Think you want to pass data from 'Frgment1' to 'Fragment2'

In Fragment1(Set data to send)

 Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
 bundle.putString("key","Jhon Doe"); // set your parameteres

 Fragment2 nextFragment = new Fragment2();
 nextFragment.setArguments(bundle);

 FragmentManager fragmentManager = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager();
 fragmentManager.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_drawer, nextFragment).commit();

In Fragment2 onCreateView method (Get parameteres)

String value = this.getArguments().getString("key");//get your parameters
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), value+" ", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();//show data in tost

Answer 14

You can achieve your goal by ViewModel and Live Data which is cleared by Arnav Rao. Now I put in an example to clear it more neatly.

First, the assumed ViewModel is named SharedViewModel.java.

public class SharedViewModel extends ViewModel {
    private final MutableLiveData<Item> selected = new MutableLiveData<Item>();

    public void select(Item item) {
        selected.setValue(item);
    }
    public LiveData<Item> getSelected() {
        return selected;
    }
}

Then the source fragment is the MasterFragment.java from where we want to send data.

public class MasterFragment extends Fragment {
    private SharedViewModel model;

    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        model = new ViewModelProvider(requireActivity()).get(SharedViewModel.class);
        itemSelector.setOnClickListener(item -> {

            // Data is sent

            model.select(item);
        });
    }
}

And finally the destination fragment is the DetailFragment.java to where we want to receive the data.

public class DetailFragment extends Fragment {

    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        SharedViewModel model = new ViewModelProvider(requireActivity()).get(SharedViewModel.class);
        model.getSelected().observe(getViewLifecycleOwner(), { item ->

           // Data is received

        });
    }
}

In your first fragment, put in this piece of code:

editprofile.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {

        Fragment_editprofile Fragment = new Fragment_editprofile();
            .
            .
            .
        Fragment.getintentdetails(tv_name.getText().toString(),
            tv_mob.getText().toString(), tv_email.getText().toString(), tv_dob.getText().toString(),
            tv_gender.getText().toString(), photointent);

    }
});

In the second fragment, make a method like below:

public void getintentdetails(String name, String mobile, String email, String dob,
                             String gender, String photointent) {

    this.name_str = name;
    this.mob_str = mobile;
    this.email_str = email;
    this.dob_str = dob;
    this.gender_str = gender;
    this.photo_str = photointent;
}

Then define a variable at the class level:

String name_str, mob_str, dob_str, photo_str, email_str, gender_str;

Then make another method in the second fragment to set a value:

setexistingdetails();

private void setexistingdetails() {

    if(!name_str.equalsIgnoreCase(""))
        (et_name).setText(name_str);
    if(!mob_str.equalsIgnoreCase(""))
        et_mobile.setText(mob_str);
    if(!email_str.equalsIgnoreCase(""))
        email_et.setText(email_str);
    if(!dob_str.equalsIgnoreCase(""))
        dob_et.setText(dob_str);
    if(!gender_str.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
        if (gender_str.equalsIgnoreCase("m")){
            male_radio.setChecked(true);
        }
        else {
            female_radio.setChecked(true);
        }
    }
    if(!photo_str.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
        try {
            Picasso.get().load(Const.BASE_PATH+"include/sub-domain/GENIUS/"+photo_str).into(adminpropic_edit);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
        }
    }
}

Answer 16

You can use a couple of approaches to achieve the same:

1. One would be to have an interface implemented in your parent activity so that fragment1 can pass information to its parent activity by calling those interface methods. Similarly you can have an interface implemented by fragment2 so that parent activity can send data to fragment2.

2. Another simpler approach would be to call methods directly among each other. From fragment1 you can get its parent activity using framework APIs and then by defining your helper method in parent activity you can call that method directly from fragment1 and pass your information to the parent activity. Similarly in parent activity you can use framework APIs to get a reference to any of its child fragment, which say in your case is fragment2. Then you can define your own helper method in fragment2 so that you can call the same from parent activity and pass the information to fragment2.

Answer 17

I’ve made something really easy for beginners like me. I made a textview in my activity_main.xml file and put in:

id = index
visibility = invisible

Then I get this textview from the first fragment:

index = (Textview) getActivity().findviewbyid(R.id.index)
index.setText("fill me with the value")

And then in the second fragment I get the value:

index = (Textview) getActivity().findviewbyid(R.id.index)
String get_the_value= index.getText().toString();

Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("mykey","abc"); 
bundle.putString("mykey2","abc"); // Put anything what you want

Fragment fragment = new Fragment();
fragment2.setArguments(bundle);

getFragmentManager()
  .beginTransaction()
  .replace(R.id.content, fragment2)
  .commit();

Bundle bundle = this.getArguments(); // in your fragment oncreate

if(bundle != null){
  String mykey = bundle.getString("mykey");
  String mykey2 = bundle.getString("mykey2");
  }
