I am making database app using room, mvvm, livedata . I have Prepopulated it with some data. Now i have two options either i am going to show that prepoulated data when app turns on via recyclerview or show it when i search it using SearchView inside recyclerView.
The Problem is when i search for particular item, itw shows that item when i complete my word and when i try to go back either my resView back empty or it always stays on that item. i wanna try sometime realtime like: when i enter only one alphabet it show all the suggestions belongs to alphabet, i only want to update with livedata
What i have try?
1-> I have already tried switchMap which worked with liveData but i have to refresh my activity in order to get back my list.
2-> I have tried resView filter which didn't worked because i am using livedata to update my UI and also give it regular try without livedata it still didn't work either.
3-> I Have tried regular editText just to try but i didn't find it useful as facing same problem, my main focus was on searchView
RecyclerView code with filterable or just ignore filterable part it wasn't good try at all
class MyAdapter(
private var context: Context,
private var dataList: List<SearchPojo>
) : RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.BaseViewHolder<*>>(), Filterable {
private var exampleListFull: List<SearchPojo>? = null
init {
exampleListFull = ArrayList(dataList)
}
companion object {
const val SEARCH_TYPE = 1
}
abstract class BaseViewHolder<T>(view: View) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(view) {
abstract fun bind(t: T)
}
inner class SearchViewHolder(view: View) : BaseViewHolder<SearchPojo>(view) {
private val userID: TextView = view.findViewById(R.id.idSearch)
private val userName: TextView = view.findViewById(R.id.nameSearch)
private val userPos: TextView = view.findViewById(R.id.positionSearch)
override fun bind(t: SearchPojo) {
userID.text = t.id
userName.text = t.userName
userPos.text = t.position
}
}
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): BaseViewHolder<*> {
return when (viewType) {
SEARCH_TYPE -> {
val view =
LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.layout_show_data, parent, false)
SearchViewHolder(view)
}
else -> {

}
}
}
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return dataList.size
}
override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: BaseViewHolder<*>, position: Int) {
val element = dataList[position]
when (holder) {
is SearchViewHolder -> {
holder.bind(element)
}
}
}
override fun getItemViewType(position: Int): Int {
return when (dataList[position]) {
is SearchPojo -> SEARCH_TYPE
else -> throw IllegalAccessException()
}
}
override fun getFilter(): Filter {
return exampleFilter
}
private var exampleFilter = object : Filter() {
override fun performFiltering(constraint: CharSequence?): FilterResults {
val filteredList = ArrayList<SearchPojo>()
if (constraint == null || constraint.isEmpty()) {
filteredList.addAll(exampleListFull as Iterable<SearchPojo>)
} else {
val filterPattern = constraint.toString().toLowerCase().trim { it <= ' ' }
for (item in exampleListFull!!) {
if (item.userName.toLowerCase().contains(filterPattern)) {
filteredList.add(item)
}
}
}
val results = FilterResults()
results.values = filteredList
return results
}
override fun publishResults(constraint: CharSequence, results: FilterResults) {
dataList.clear()
dataList.addAll(results.values as List<SearchPojo>)

Please change your @Dao class like this
@Dao
abstract class SearchDao : BaseDao<SearchPojo> {
@Query("Select * from SearchPojo")
abstract fun allSearch(): LiveData<List<SearchPojo>>
@Query("Select * from SearchPojo where userName GLOB '*' || :userNameSearch|| '*'")
abstract fun searchViaID(userNameSearch: String) : LiveData<List<SearchPojo>>
@Insert
abstract override fun insert(searchPojo: SearchPojo)
}
