How To

Create SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper and add to your RecyclerView

RecyclerView recyclerView = ...
SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper helper = new SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper(new SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper.SimpleCallback(
    SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper.START | SwipeOpenItemTouchHelper.END));
helper.attachToRecyclerView(recyclerview);

Implement ViewHolders by extending BaseSwipeOpenViewHolder or implementing SwipeOpenViewHolder.

static class SwipeViewHolder extends BaseSwipeOpenViewHolder {

  public LinearLayout swipeView;
  public TextView startView;
  public TextView endView;

  // view holder code

  @NonNull @Override public View getSwipeView() {
    return swipeView;
  }

  @Override public float getEndHiddenViewSize() {
    return endView.getMeasuredWidth();
  }

  @Override public float getStartHiddenViewSize() {
    return startView.getMeasuredWidth();
  }
}

And that's it! Your swipe view can now be swiped open/closed (as long as your layouts are setup correctly).

See sample for examples on how to implement on vertical or horizontal RecyclerView, as well as example layouts for a ViewHolder.
