Listview using search in Android

Search in ListView,GridView and Horizontal ListView are the most important part in android . By using Filterable interface you can easily implement search functionality in android . Filterable classes are usually Adapter implementations.
A filterable class can have its data constrained by a filter. Lets see how to integrate search functionality in ListView in android .

Step 1: Create Project 
          a) Open Android Studio
          b) Go to File >New> New Project  > Project Name  > Next > Next > Next > Finish 

Step 2 : Layout Design 
         open activity_main.xml file and add the bellow code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#ff33b5e5">

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/etSearch"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:hint="Search by id, name, gender"/>
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/list"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/etSearch">

    </ListView>
</RelativeLayout>

Step 3 : Layout file for each row of ListView  

create a file adapter_list and add the bellow code

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:padding="5dp"
        android:orientation="vertical">
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvId"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="3dp"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:text=""/>
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvName"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="3dp"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:text=""/>
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvDob"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="3dp"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:text=""/>
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvAge"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="3dp"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:text=""/>
        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvGender"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="3dp"
            android:textColor="#000000"
            android:text=""/>
    </LinearLayout>

</RelativeLayout>

Step 4: Create a Model class (ModelList.java)to store each employee details 

/**
 * Created by anupam on 12/10/16.
 */
public class ModelList {
    String name,id,age,dob,sex;

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getAge() {
        return age;
    }

    public void setAge(String age) {
        this.age = age;
    }

    public String getDob() {
        return dob;
    }

    public void setDob(String dob) {
        this.dob = dob;
    }

    public String getSex() {
        return sex;
    }

    public void setSex(String sex) {
        this.sex = sex;
    }
}

Step 5 : Code 
             open MainActivity class and add the bellow code

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.Editable;
import android.text.TextWatcher;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.ListView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import app.demo.utils.ModelList;

/**
 * Created by anupam on 12/10/16.
 */
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    Context context;
    ListView listView;
    ArrayList<ModelList> listOfContact;
    EditText etSearch;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        // initialize context
        context = this;
        listOfContact = new ArrayList<ModelList>();
        // initialize listview
        listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
        // initialize edittext
        etSearch=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.etSearch);
        // adding data to array list
        for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
            ModelList list = new ModelList();
            if (i == 0) {
                list.setName("Anupam ");
                list.setSex("Male");
            } else if (i == 1) {
                list.setName("Koushik");
                list.setSex("Male");
            } else if (i == 2) {
                list.setName("Souvik ");
                list.setSex("Male");
            } else if (i == 3) {
                list.setName("Soumita ");
                list.setSex("Female");
            }else if (i == 4) {
                list.setName("Parna ");
                list.setSex("Female");
            } else if (i == 5) {
                list.setName("Amit");
                list.setSex("Male");
            }else {
                list.setName("Santu");
                list.setSex("Male");
            }
            list.setAge("28");
            list.setDob("01/01/1988");
            list.setId("" + (i + 1));

            listOfContact.add(list);
        }


        // calling Adapter

        final AdapterList adapter = new AdapterList(context, listOfContact);
        // set adapter to listview
        listView.setAdapter(adapter);


        etSearch.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
            @Override
            public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {

            }

            @Override
            public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
             adapter.getFilter().filter(s);
            }
        });
    }
}


Step 6 : Create a Adapter class (AdapterList)

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.Filter;
import android.widget.Filterable;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import app.demo.utils.ModelList;

/**
 * Created by anupam on 12/10/16.
 */
public class AdapterList extends BaseAdapter implements Filterable{

    Context context;
    ArrayList<ModelList> _list,searchList;
    LayoutInflater inflater = null;
    SearchFilter searchFilter=null;
    public AdapterList(Context context, ArrayList<ModelList> _list) {
        this.context = context;
        this._list = _list;
        searchList= _list;
        inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.
                getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    }

    @Override
    public int getCount() {
        return _list.size();
    }

    @Override
    public Object getItem(int position) {
        return _list.get(position);
    }

    @Override
    public long getItemId(int position) {
        return 0;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        View rowView;
        rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.adapter_list, null);
        TextView tvId = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.tvId);
        TextView tvName = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.tvName);
        TextView tvDob = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.tvDob);
        TextView tvAge = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.tvAge);
        TextView tvGender = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.tvGender);

        ModelList list = _list.get(position);

        tvId.setText("Employee Id :: " + list.getId());
        tvName.setText("Employee Name :: " + list.getName());
        tvDob.setText("Employee Date of Birth :: " + list.getDob());
        tvAge.setText("Employee Age :: " + list.getAge());
        tvGender.setText("Employee Gender :: " + list.getSex());

        return rowView;
    }

    @Override
    public Filter getFilter() {

        if(searchFilter==null){
            searchFilter=new SearchFilter();
        }
        return searchFilter;
    }

    class SearchFilter extends Filter{

        @Override
        protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint) {
            FilterResults filterResults = new FilterResults();
            if (constraint!=null && constraint.length()>0) {
                ArrayList<ModelList> list = new ArrayList<ModelList>();

                // search content in friend list
                for (ModelList ml : searchList) {
                    if (ml.getId().toLowerCase().contains(constraint.toString().toLowerCase())) {
                        list.add(ml);
                    }else if(ml.getName().toLowerCase().contains(constraint.toString().toLowerCase())){
                        list.add(ml);
                    }else if(ml.getSex().toLowerCase().startsWith(constraint.toString().toLowerCase())){
                        list.add(ml);
                    }
                }

                filterResults.count = list.size();
                filterResults.values = list;
            } else {
                filterResults.count = searchList.size();
                filterResults.values = searchList;
            }

            return filterResults;
        }

        @Override
        protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint, FilterResults results) {
            _list=(ArrayList<ModelList>)results.values;
            notifyDataSetChanged();
        }
    }
}

Step 7 : Output

Before Search ::




 Search by id :: 


 Search by name :: 

                                           


Search by Gender ::
