LoadStateAdapter

abstract class LoadStateAdapter<VH : RecyclerView.ViewHolder> : RecyclerView.Adapter<VH>

Adapter for displaying a RecyclerView item based on LoadState, such as a loading spinner, or a retry error button.

By default will use one shared view type for all items.

By default, both LoadState.Loading and LoadState.Error are presented as adapter items, other states are not. To configure this, override displayLoadStateAsItem.

To present this Adapter as a header and or footer alongside your PagingDataAdapter, see PagingDataAdapter.withLoadStateHeaderAndFooter, or use ConcatAdapter directly to concatenate Adapters.

class LoadStateViewHolder(
    parent: ViewGroup,
    retry: () -> Unit
) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(
    LayoutInflater.from(parent.context)
        .inflate(R.layout.load_state_item, parent, false)
) {
    private val progressBar: ProgressBar = itemView.findViewById(R.id.progress_bar)
    private val errorMsg: TextView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.error_msg)
    private val retry: Button = itemView.findViewById<Button>(R.id.retry_button)
        .also { it.setOnClickListener { retry.invoke() } }

    fun bind(loadState: LoadState) {
        if (loadState is LoadState.Error) {
            errorMsg.text = loadState.error.localizedMessage
        }
        progressBar.visibility = toVisibility(loadState is LoadState.Loading)
        retry.visibility = toVisibility(loadState !is LoadState.Loading)
        errorMsg.visibility = toVisibility(loadState !is LoadState.Loading)
    }

    private fun toVisibility(constraint: Boolean): Int = if (constraint) {
        View.VISIBLE
    } else {
        View.GONE
    }
}

/**
 * Adapter which displays a loading spinner when `state = LoadState.Loading`, and an error
 * message and retry button when `state is LoadState.Error`.

class MyLoadStateAdapter(
    private val retry: () -> Unit
