recycler view hides message upward when keyboard is open / how to keep recycler View from scrolling

Time:07-01

I am making chat app but when I send message recycler view does not show first 2 messages because it is up I want something like whatsapp if I open keyboard recycler view is shown from start I tried following but it sticks chats to end even after I close keyboard:

            LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext());
            layoutManager.setStackFromEnd(true);
            recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);

. following is my code:

public class UserChat extends AppCompatActivity {

private RecyclerView recyclerView;
private Button btnSend;
private EditText messageBox;
private TextView name_txt;
final ArrayList<ChatModel> chatModels = new ArrayList<>();

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_user_chat);

    recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.chat_list);
    messageBox = findViewById(R.id.et_chat_box);
    btnSend = findViewById(R.id.btn_chat_send);
    name_txt = findViewById(R.id.name_txt);
    String username = "username not set";
    Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
    if(extras!=null){
        username = extras.getString("username");
    }
    name_txt.setText(username);

    btnSend.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {

            int i = 1;
            i  ;
            ChatModel chatModel = new ChatModel();
            chatModel.setId(i);
            chatModel.setMe(true);
            chatModel.setMessage(messageBox.getText().toString().trim());

            chatModels.add(chatModel);

            ChatAdapter chatAdapter = new ChatAdapter(chatModels, getApplicationContext());
            recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
            recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext()));
            recyclerView.setAdapter(chatAdapter);
            messageBox.setText("");
        }
    });
}

}

CodePudding user response:

There was a problem in height of the recycler view. I saw it here: https://github.com/stfalcon-studio/ChatKit/issues/103. @andriizhumela said that you need to put match parent in width and height of recycler view . so now it is solved
