Implement RecyclerView custom layout as easy as UICollectionViewLayout.
Implementing custom RecyclerView.LayoutManager is much more difficult than UICollectionViewLayout in iOS. Key difference is that LayoutManager fills visible child views relative to already placed child view, on other hand UICollectionViewLayout calculates absolute position of each cell.
Although relative approach enables to handle wrap_content on child views,
but is too complicated if you don't want it.
Implement AbsoluteLayoutManager.LayoutProvider.
It is just same as UICollectionViewLayout. :)
See example.
If you want to divide screen into columns or to use fixed width space between cells, you will end up to fight with 1px layout shift. To keep away from rounding error, you can use [SpanCalculator](example/src/main/java/net/ypresto/recyclerview/absolutelayoutmanager/SpanCalculator.java class to calculate absolute start / end pixel of each columns in length to be divided.
- Decoration margin is not supported yet.
- Predictive animation is not supported yet.
Available from jCenter.
