pnickv commented Nov 13, 2014

something like
...
mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.recycler_view);
mRecyclerView.addItemDecoration(new DividerItemDecoration(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.abc_list_divider_mtrl_alpha)));

This si also deprecated now, onDrawOver should now also take in RecyclerView.State

Thanks for sharing this git.
I forked and modified your DividerItemDecoration. I hope can be useful to somebody.

Great work, but how can I set the divider height?

Thank you

Why do we now need 75 lines of code to draw a list divider?

Because GOOGLE assumes android developers are not humans ...... but super humans... who for example if asked for time will first invent a clock and then a time machine to go back into the moment you asked for time and then tell you the time... developing for iOS is much more human...

@cbedoy you still have a problem with the first and the last items, usually you don't need margin top for the first item and margin bottom for the last one

Hi, I tried it. but I get an error, Call require API level 21

mListView.addItemDecoration(
new DividerItemDecoration(getActivity().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_launcher), true, true));

@aricneto

@MrThiago, getDrawable(int, theme) is for API 21+ only. Use

ContextCompat.getDrawable(getApplicationContext(), R.drawable.ic_launcher)

this only for LinearLayoutManager ? How can I draw dividers for StaggeredGridManager or GridLayoutManager?

getChildPosition and onDrawOver deprecated. What should i do?

@ChaosLeung
Copy link

@pratikbutani
use getChildAdapterPosition or getChildLayoutPosition instead getChildPosition

use

public void onDrawOver(Canvas c, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state)

instead

public void onDrawOver(Canvas c, RecyclerView parent)

Hi, I'm Seyoung.
I want to use your code in my commercial app.
But I can'f find any terms and conditions for use, reproduction, and distribution.
I wonder if I can use the code for commercial distribution or not.
Please let me know how I can use the code for commercial distribution.
Thanks.
