RTLViewPager is a helpful library built on the top of the ViewPager. It extends the functionality of it. Display Views or Fragments in a swipeable format and handle the RTL (right-to-left) layout support.
#Setup
Gradle:
implementation 'com.linkdev.rtlviewpager:rtlviewpager:1.0.0'
Maven:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.linkdev.rtlviewpager</groupId>
<artifactId>rtlviewpager</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
1- Add rtlviewpager view to your xml file
<com.linkdev.rtlviewpager.views.RtlViewPager
android:id="@+id/viewPager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/tabLayout"
app:tabGravity="fill" />
use the rtlviewpager in your layout to handle the RTL swipe direction.
Take in your consideration that in case of the configuration changes and the selected language is RTL you need to check if the RTLViePager language is set to the mobile default language not the (RTL)selected language. so you need to override the onConfigurationChanged method in your application class to provide the language again to resolve this issue otherwise no need for that.
override fun onConfigurationChanged(newConfig: Configuration) {
val configuration: Configuration = newConfig
val appLanguage = iPreferenceDataSource.getLanguage(Constants.Languages.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE)
if (appLanguage.isNotEmpty()) {
val newLocale = Locale(appLanguage)
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
configuration.apply {
val localeList = LocaleList(newLocale)
LocaleList.setDefault(localeList)
setLocale(newLocale)
setLocales(localeList)
}
} else {
configuration.setLocale(newLocale)
}
}
super.onConfigurationChanged(configuration)
}
