How to display all the elements of ArrayList as Chips in Android

Question

I have an ArrayList<String> like this [Angularjs, JavaScript, Css]

In my Adapter where I get the ArrayList of tags from another Intent. I tried to display all the elements of the ArrayList as Chips with the below approach, but I get only the last element of the ArrayList. I only see one Chip with the last element of the ArrayList.

for (String tag: card.getTags()) {
  Log.d(TAG, "tag - " + tag);
  holder.tags.setText(tag);
}

Could anyone please guide, how do I change my code to display all the elements of the ArrayList as Chips.

Answer 1

If you are talking about Chips.

Add a ChipGroup in xml layout where you want to show your chips

<com.google.android.material.chip.ChipGroup
 android:id="@+id/chipGroup"
 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 app:chipSpacingVertical="2dp"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Now you can use this method to add your ArrayList as Chip in ChipGroup :

private void addChip(String pItem, ChipGroup pChipGroup) {
    Chip lChip = new Chip(this);
    lChip.setText(pItem);
    lChip.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.primary_text));
    lChip.setChipBackgroundColor(getResources().getColorStateList(R.color.chip_bg));

    pChipGroup.addView(lChip, pChipGroup.getChildCount() - 1);
  }
