I am using DataBinding
and following MVVM architecture, now i am stuck on how to add new fragment from ViewModel
as we need defined click event on ViewModel
. Here is my MainViewModel
class
public class MainViewModel {
private Context context;
public MainViewModel (Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
public void onClick(View v) {
}
}
here is my xml where i have defined click event
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<data>
<variable
name="viewmodel"
type="com.example.MainViewModel" />
</data>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="@{viewmodel::onClick}"
android:text="click me"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</layout>
now how can i get supportFragmentManager
or childFragmentManager
from my ViewModel class? I have tried to use activity.getSupportFragmentManager()
and activity.getChildFragmentManager()
but it doesn't have that kind of method.
I know we can add fragment with following code
getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out, android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out).
add(R.id.container, fragment, "").addToBackStack("main").commit();
but how to do it in ViewModel
class
Since you have your Context
available, you have two possibilities:
public class MainViewModel {
private Context context;
public MainViewModel (Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
public void onClick(View v) {
//use context:
((AppCompatActivity) context).getSupportFragmentManager();
//OR use the views context:
if(v.getContext() instanceof AppCompatActivity) {
((AppCompatActivity) v.getContext()).getSupportFragmentManager();
}
}
}
It may be useful to check whether the context is an instance of your activity (like MainActivity
) or AppCompatActivity
, or if it is null
before calling any method.
