Set cardview border programmatically

Question

Is there a way to set CardView border programmatically, I have a situation in which a hex code comes from API call and I need to draw the border of a cardview using that hex color.

I am not able to figure out, since I don't see any method to directly set the border of a cardView. I can only see the method to set the backgroundColor.

You can simply wrap your layout into a FrameLayout with a small padding say, 3dp and the desired border color as background color.
