For some reason my recyclerView doesn't attach to the Firebase RecyclerView adapter. I'm implementing the recyclerView inside a fragment that shows in a tabbed activity. my code (relevant parts):
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = LayoutInflater.from(container.getContext())
.inflate(R.layout.fragment_fresh, container, false);
// Initialize ProgressBar and RecyclerView.
mProgressBar = (ProgressBar)rootView.findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
mSessionRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.sessionRecyclerView);
mLinearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());
mLinearLayoutManager.setStackFromEnd(true);
mSessionRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLinearLayoutManager);
//implement recyclerview
mFirebaseDatabaseReference = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference();
mFirebaseAdapter = new FirebaseRecyclerAdapter<Session, SessionViewHolder>(
Session.class,
R.layout.item_session,
SessionViewHolder.class,
//change back to SESSIONS_CHILD
mFirebaseDatabaseReference.child("test")) {
@Override
protected void populateViewHolder(final SessionViewHolder viewHolder,
Session session, int position) {
//implementing populateViewHolder..
}
};
mSessionRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLinearLayoutManager);
mSessionRecyclerView.setAdapter(mFirebaseAdapter);
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_fresh, container, false);
}
}
The XML is just a recyclerView and a progressBar. Worth mentioning that I've gone through this thread.Tried setting recycler's size to wrap_parent, move setAdapter to onCreate, and pretty much every other answer - to no avail.
EDIT: I got this working when inside an activity, but whenever I try from within a fragments I get this error. Also tried with a regular recyclerView and a custom adapter and the same thing happens. Does the recyclerView attaches itself to an adapter differently in a fragment?
