Question

Hello team In my project I using MVP architecture and have complex screen built on RecyclerView only It has article content blocks of text images and so on some section dividers and comments So question is who should care about building such screen presenter or view adapter Should `View` have `View setArticle` and `View setComments` methods or only `View setContent` Now I have two methods And it looks OK but what if

Hey < adolgiy> Well I don t know what do you mean exactly by having `View setArticle` and `View setComments` methods or only `View setContent` because it depends on what they ll have inside You just have to keep in mind that the view doesn t execute anything out of its concerns like building the data that will be shown however this data should be provided by the presenter and the View will display it as it comes

adolgiy · Answer

`View setContent` means that presenter build final list with all data to display including article s blocks dividers comments loading more item and so on `View setArticle` and `View setComments` means that presenter only passes data related to article s blocks and comments and View by itself decides how to handle them Second option looks like right way because View s interface doesn t tell anything about RecyclerView And first way forces me to use list based screen layout

< gildor> SO is cool but what I should search

gildor · Answer

< adolgiy> Your question is not related to Kotlin This is Slack about Kotlin and all channels except random should be used only for discussion of Kotlin specific question Do not search ask question on SO or use any Android community like android united to ask general Android questions

< adolgiy> The second way seems more clean than the first one I can t see the big picture of the first option but it looks like the presenter may end up doing some UI work by providing the final list
