How to pass a variable from Activity to Fragment, and pass it back?
5 answers
I have the following simple code to switch from one fragment to another in the content frame. Is there a simple way to pass variables in the following code?
FragmentManager fm = getActivity().getFragmentManager();
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, new TransactionDetailsFragment()).commit();
You can use Bundle:
FragmentManager fm = getActivity().getFragmentManager();
Bundle arguments = new Bundle();
arguments.putInt("VALUE1", 0);
arguments.putInt("VALUE2", 100);
MyFragment myFragment = new Fragment();
fragment.setArguments(arguments);
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, myFragment).commit();
Then, you retrieve as follows:
public class MyFragment extends Fragment {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Bundle bundle = this.getArguments();
if (bundle != null) {
int value1 = bundle.getInt("VALUE1", -1);
int value2 = bundle.getInt("VALUE2", -1);
}
}
}
How about creating a parameterized constructor for TransactionDetailsFragment
?
fm.beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, new TransactionDetailsFragment(YOUR_PARAMS)).commit();
When you create new TransactionDetailsFragment(YOUR_PARAMS)
as a param of FragmentTransaction
, I think using constructor is a good choice.
Or you could use the newInstance method - create a method inside your Fragment class like:
public static TransactionDetailsFragment newInstance(String param) {
TransactionDetailsFragment frag = new TransactionDetailsFragment();
Bundle bund = new Bundle();
bund.putString("paramkey", param); // you use key to later grab the value
frag.setArguments(bund);
return frag;
}
So to create your fragment you do:
TransactionDetailsFragment.newInstance("PASSING VALUE");
(This is used instead of your new TransactionDetailsFragment()
)
Then for example in onCreate/onCreateView of the same fragment you get the value like this:
String value = getArguments().getString("paramkey");
