How to use SwipeRefreshLayout to update json data in RecyclerView


I am new in android development. I am learning it. I am able to fetch json data in listview using Recyclerview. Now I want to include swiperRefreshLayout, so any update in server also displayed while refreshing. I search tutorial about swiperRefreshLayout in json, but this doesn't work. I tried using DefaultHttpClient, but I can't catch this idea.

protected void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_health);
        mRecyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recycler_view);
        LinearLayoutManager linearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
        mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
        mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));


        mSwipeRefreshLayout = (SwipeRefreshLayout) findViewById(R.id.swipeRefreshLayout);
        mSwipeRefreshLayout.setOnRefreshListener(new SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener() {
            @Override
            public void onRefresh() {

            }
        });
        mExampleList = new ArrayList<>();

        mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
        parseJSON();
    }

    private void parseJSON() {
        String url = "http://fitandfineindustries.com/healthapi.php";

        JsonObjectRequest request = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET, url, null,
                new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                        try {
                            JSONArray jsonArray = response.getJSONArray("info");

                            for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
                                JSONObject hit = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);

                                String creatorName = hit.getString("heading");
                                String img = hit.getString("img");
                                String imageUrl = img.length() == 0 ? "file:///android_asset/fitandfineindustries.jpg" : "http://fitandfineindustries.com/images/plan/"+img;

                                mExampleList.add(new NewsItem(imageUrl, creatorName));
                            }

                            mNewsAdapter = new NewsAdapter(HealthActivity.this, mExampleList);
                            mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mNewsAdapter);
                            mNewsAdapter.setOnItemClickListener(HealthActivity.this);

                        } catch (JSONException e) {
                            e.printStackTrace();
                        }
                    }
                }, new Response.ErrorListener() {
            @Override
            public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                error.printStackTrace();
            }
        });

        mRequestQueue.add(request);
    }

Solution

  • On refresh call your parseJSON() make sure before this you need to clear your array.

    SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener() {
            @Override
            public void onRefresh() {
             mExampleList.clear()
             parseJSON();
            }
        });
        mExampleList = new ArrayList<>();
        mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
        parseJSON();
    }
