FakeSearchView

Search made easy!

Android Arsenal

So I think the native Android SearchView it's a good option when perform a search, but it's not customizable and it's so burocratic!

On my recent projects I use this class many and many times, so it's time to become a library.

It's usage is very very simple, you can use it directly or use a custom adapter like the snipet below, or checkout the sample in this project:

First, create the menu options

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

  <item
    android:id="@+id/fake_search"
    android:title="@string/find"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search"
    app:showAsAction="ifRoom|collapseActionView"
    app:actionViewClass="com.github.leonardoxh.fakesearchview.FakeSearchView"/>

</menu>

After this you will need use this menu in your activity or fragment and set the search listener like this:

public class MainActivity extends Fragment implements FakeSearchView.OnSearchListener {

  private ListView listView;

  /* Another methods */

  @Override public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu_devices, menu);
    MenuItem menuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.fake_search);
    FakeSearchView fakeSearchView = (FakeSearchView) MenuItemCompat.getActionView(menuItem);
    fakeSearchView.setOnSearchListener(this);
  }

  @Override public void onSearch(@NotNull FakeSearchView fakeSearchView, @NotNull CharSequence constraint) {
    //The constraint variable here change every time user input data
    ((Filterable)listView.getAdapter()).getFilter().filter(constraint);
    /* Any adapter that implements a Filterable interface, or just extends the built in FakeSearchAdapter
       and implements the searchitem on your model to a custom filter logic */
  }

  @Override public void onSearchHint(@NotNull FakeSearchView fakeSearchView, @NotNull CharSequence constraint) {
    //This is received when the user click in the search button on the keyboard
  }

}
