How to show a snakbar with Lottie animation in start from a recycler view adapter

I am making a chat app and I want to add a feature like telegram to copy links ,phone numbers and etc.. from long clicking on an auto link.I used this library to add long click listeners on a auto link.I implemented it successfully.But when I do this, i want to show a Lottie animation in the start like this but on long click of a link.
I tried many answer but I get an exception.I already made the layout for custom snakbar.It is given below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="56dp"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/_3sdp"
android:backgroundTint="#color/snakbar_background"
app:cardCornerRadius="#dimen/_4sdp">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center_vertical">
<com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView
android:id="#+id/lottieSnakbar"
android:layout_width="35dp"
android:layout_height="35dp"
android:layout_marginStart="#dimen/_5sdp"
android:layout_marginEnd="#dimen/_10sdp"
app:lottie_rawRes="#drawable/copy"
app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
app:lottie_loop="false"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Text copied to clipboard"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:theme="?snackbarTextViewStyle"
tools:ignore="HardcodedText" />
</LinearLayout>
</androidx.cardview.widget.CardView>
Now how can I achieve this?

You can use an interface in the adapter. And receive and show snakbar from activity

You could use localBroadcast and broadcast a local signal from the adapter and let the other Activity(probably receiver) handle snakbar.
AdapterClass{
LocalBroadcastManager localBroadcastManager = null;
void sendB(parms){
if(localBroadcastManager != null){
localBroadcastManager.sendBroadcast(Intent("NOTIFICATION_RECEIVER"))
}
onCreateViewHolder(){
localBroadcastManager = LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(applicationContext)
}
onBindViewHolder(){
if(someCondition){
sendB(parms);
}
}
then receive it from an activity then call snakBar

How to integrate Stripe Payment in Android Java?

I need a Stripe Implementation for my Java Android App, but with a Server in Java, I don't know how to use node or php to implement that server-side and I found something on their docs:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?integration=elements#android-create-payment-intent
but, the server-side is poorly explained.
All I've wrote until now is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="30dp"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
tools:context=".Checkout">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:src="#drawable/logo"
android:layout_gravity="center"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/youhavetopay"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="22sp"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:fontFamily="#font/muli_black"
android:layout_gravity="center"
/>
<com.stripe.android.view.CardInputWidget
android:id="#+id/cardInputWidget"
android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/payButton"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
and this
public class Checkout extends AppCompatActivity {
Button payBtn;
String message;
String price;
TextView text;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_checkout);
payBtn = findViewById(R.id.payButton);
text = findViewById(R.id.youhavetopay);
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if(extras != null) {
message = extras.getString("message");
price = extras.getString("passprice");
}
String t = "Pay $"+price;
payBtn.setText(t);
text.setText(message);
}
}
I have these implementations :
implementation "com.stripe:stripe-java:15.1.0"
implementation 'com.stripe:stripe-android:15.1.0'
implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:4.4.0'
implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.6'
I really don't understand what I have to do from their docs. I only want a pay button that makes a payment from that card and if its accepted, do something on the database. A simple payment.
If you can guide me please, I would appreciate it! Any tutorials or advices are welcomed. I've tried to copy from the GitHub, but I saw many red lines from imports and I got lost.
Thank you in advance!

This sample includes both example Android client and a Java server implementations. You should be able to clone the repository and follow the appropriate READMEs to run those examples and see how this works. Follow along with the guide and if you have more specific questions please raise those.
You will need to be able to install and build android & java to run this, of course.

Custom Facebook Share-Button, Android App

So I want to implement a custom Facebook share button into my Android app, but thus far I've only managed to use the native one, which I imported into my .xml file and made use of in my Java activity for that specific page.
My code looks like this (in .xml);
<com.facebook.share.widget.ShareButton
android:id="#+id/share_btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:contentDescription="Share"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>
And in my .java, outside onCreate();
private ShareButton shareButton;
ShareLinkContent content = new ShareLinkContent.Builder()
.setContentUrl(Uri.parse("https://developers.facebook.com"))
.setContentTitle("MyTitle")
.build();
Inside onCreate();
shareButton = (ShareButton)findViewById(R.id.share_btn);
shareButton.setShareContent(content);
How would I go about making use of a custom button that I've imported into XML? Using .setShareContent obviously doesn't work if it's not an instance of ShareButton. Thanks in advance!

I have found a solution. It's clear that facebook share will work on its own button click event. So you will have to explicitly call the View.performclick() method.
Here is how i have done this:
In my layout
<com.facebook.share.widget.ShareButton
android:id="#+id/share_btn_fb"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:visibility="gone"
android:contentDescription="#string/share" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/share_btn"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="4"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="center_vertical">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="15dp"
android:src="#drawable/google_share" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/share_google"
android:textColor="#color/green_color"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>
Inside activity get refrences of these views.
ShareButton shareButton = (ShareButton) layout.findViewById(R.id.share_btn_fb);
LinearLayout shareFB = (LinearLayout) layout.findViewById(R.id.share_btn);
LinearLayout shareGoogle = (LinearLayout) layout.findViewById(R.id.share_google);
shareGoogle.setOnClickListener(this);
shareFB.setOnClickListener(this);
Inside onClick()
case R.id.share_btn :
shareButton.performClick();
break;
case R.id.share_btn_fb :
ShareLinkContent content = new ShareLinkContent.Builder()
.setContentTitle("Content title")
.setContentDescription("App descr")
.setContentUrl(Uri.parse("some url"))
.build();
shareButton.setShareContent(content);
break;
Basically shareButton.performClick(); is doing the trick.

How to fix the layout in OnConfigurationChanged when i do not want the activity to restart

So i fixed my activity restart on changing orientation (i needed to do that for client requirement) but now i am having issues fixing the display layouts.I have tried a lot of combinations of layout_height and layout_weight but failed.
I just need some guidance in how to fix this.
My layout xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</RelativeLayout>
The relevant code which i use in onConfigurationChanged:
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
scrollView.setLayoutParams(params);
sessionView.setLayoutParams(new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, Gravity.CENTER));
scrollView.requestLayout();
sessionView.requestLayout();
Screenshot when initially in Portrait:
Screenshot when in landscape:
thanks.

Try this
LayoutParams p = scrollView.getLayoutParams();
LayoutParams p1 = sessionView.getLayoutParams();
DisplayMetrics outMetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(outMetrics);
p.width = outMetrics.widthPixels;
p.height = outMetrics.heightPixels
p1.width = outMetrics.widthPixels;
p1.height = outMetrics.heightPixels

your view may be filling the screen with fill_parent. But the portrait aspect ratio image will not fit in as background in landscape layout.
use a different image of landscape width and height and use it in drawable-land folder (name of the image should be same)
image from drawable-land will be automatically picked for landscape layout

Fix the errors in XML so the resource compiler can generate R.java for you.

Remove Import android.R; from imports in your activity class

In order to accesst "R.layout.edit_reminder" xml file you must import your "R" file which is found under the "gen" folder. This file is automatically generated, so you can go ahead and delete it and it will be generated again. Now, if you have any xml errores whatsoever the R file won't be generated, that's a sign that you have to look to your xml to find the problem.
In regards to the import, you'll find them on your Activity Class, at the very top right after the package declaration.
Make sure that the R you are importing is:
yourpackage.R;
rather tahn
android.R;
When writing code quickly at times android.R gets imported and you don't even notice. That's the first thing I always check, it's happened to me a couple of times already.
Next thing I would suggest doing is looking to see your console and problems view (if these are not set in your perspective, then go to Window>Show View>Other and select the appropriate ones).
Look for something along the lines of Error with xml file aborting build. Look for what xml file it is talking about, and then look for errors in it.
