Cute library to implement SearchView in a Material Design Approach. Works from Android API 14 (ICS) and above.
#Native version Maybe it would be useful to take a look into the new official approach http://www.materialdoc.com/search-filter/
Add the dependencies to your gradle file:
dependencies{compile'com.miguelcatalan:materialsearchview:1.4.0'}Add MaterialSearchView to your layout file along with the Toolbar(Add this block at the bottom of your layout, in order to display it over the rest of the view):
<!— Must be last for right layering display —>
<FrameLayoutandroid:id="@+id/toolbar_container"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"android:background="@color/theme_primary" />
<com.miguelcatalan.materialsearchview.MaterialSearchView
android:id="@+id/search_view"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</FrameLayout>Add the search item into the menu file:
<itemandroid:id="@+id/action_search"android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_action_search"android:orderInCategory="100"android:title="@string/abc_search_hint"app:showAsAction="always" />Add define it in the onCreateOptionsMenu:
@OverridepublicbooleanonCreateOptionsMenu(Menumenu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
MenuItemitem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);
searchView.setMenuItem(item);
returntrue;
}Set the listeners:
MaterialSearchViewsearchView = (MaterialSearchView) findViewById(R.id.search_view);
searchView.setOnQueryTextListener(newMaterialSearchView.OnQueryTextListener() {
@OverridepublicbooleanonQueryTextSubmit(Stringquery) {
//Do some magicreturnfalse;
}
@OverridepublicbooleanonQueryTextChange(StringnewText) {
//Do some magicreturnfalse;
}
});
searchView.setOnSearchViewListener(newMaterialSearchView.SearchViewListener() {
@OverridepublicvoidonSearchViewShown() {
//Do some magic
}
@OverridepublicvoidonSearchViewClosed() {
//Do some magic
}
});Allow/Disable it in the code:
searchView.setVoiceSearch(true); //or falseHandle the response:
@OverrideprotectedvoidonActivityResult(intrequestCode, intresultCode, Intentdata) {
if (requestCode == MaterialSearchView.REQUEST_VOICE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
ArrayList<String> matches = data.getStringArrayListExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_RESULTS);
if (matches != null && matches.size() > 0) {
StringsearchWrd = matches.get(0);
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(searchWrd)) {
searchView.setQuery(searchWrd, false);
}
}
return;
}
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}Define them in the resources as a string-array:
<string-arrayname="query_suggestions">
<item>Android</item>
<item>iOS</item>
<item>SCALA</item>
<item>Ruby</item>
<item>JavaScript</item>
</string-array>Add them to the object:
searchView.setSuggestions(getResources().getStringArray(R.array.query_suggestions)); <stylename="MaterialSearchViewStyle">
<!-- Background for the search bar -->
<itemname="searchBackground">@color/theme_primary</item>
<!-- Change voice icon -->
<itemname="searchVoiceIcon">@drawable/ic_action_voice_search_inverted</item>
<!-- Change clear text icon -->
<itemname="searchCloseIcon">@drawable/ic_action_navigation_close_inverted</item>
<!-- Change up icon -->
<itemname="searchBackIcon">@drawable/ic_action_navigation_arrow_back_inverted</item>
<!-- Change icon for the suggestions -->
<itemname="searchSuggestionIcon">@drawable/ic_suggestion</item>
<!-- Change background for the suggestions list view -->
<itemname="searchSuggestionBackground">@android:color/white</item>
<!-- Change text color for edit text. This will also be the color of the cursor -->
<itemname="android:textColor">@color/theme_primary_text_inverted</item>
<!-- Change hint text color for edit text -->
<itemname="android:textColorHint">@color/theme_secondary_text_inverted</item>
<!-- Hint for edit text -->
<itemname="android:hint">@string/search_hint</item>
</style>#Custom cursor Create the drawable:
<shapexmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<sizeandroid:width="2dp" />
<solidandroid:color="@color/theme_primary" />
</shape>And add it to the object:
searchView.setCursorDrawable(R.drawable.custom_cursor);It is a little bit tricky but can be achieved using this:
<RelativeLayoutxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"android:id="@+id/container"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!— Irrelevant stuff —>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/viewpager"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent"android:layout_below="@+id/appbarlayout"app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />
<!— Must be last for right layering display —>
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="@+id/appbarlayout"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:background="@color/search_layover_bg">
<FrameLayoutandroid:id="@+id/toolbar_container"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/toolbar"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"android:background="@color/theme_primary" />
<com.miguelcatalan.materialsearchview.MaterialSearchView
android:id="@+id/search_view"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:visibility="gone" />
</FrameLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="@+id/tabs"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:background="@color/theme_primary"app:tabGravity="fill"app:tabMode="fixed" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</RelativeLayout>Close on backpressed:
@OverridepublicvoidonBackPressed() {
if (searchView.isSearchOpen()) {
searchView.closeSearch();
} else {
super.onBackPressed();
}
}Pull requests are more than welcome, help me and others improve this awesome library.
The code is based in the Krishnakapil original concept.
