Contacts app in android device is a system app that comes installed on your android device. Different devices have different UI for the contacts app. In this article, we will take a look at how we can build our own contacts app in Android Studio.
What we are going to build in this article?
We will be building a simple application in which we will be displaying the list of contacts that are stored in the user’s device. Along with that we will be also adding a feature to save a new contact, filter contacts from the list using the search bar, and many more. Below is the video in which we will get to see what we are going to build in this article.
Step by Step Implementation
Step 1: Create a New Project
To create a new project in Android Studio please refer to How to Create/Start a New Project in Android Studio. Note that select Java as the programming language.
Step 2: Add dependency and JitPack Repository
As we will have to request the user’s permissions to display contacts from the device in the app, that we have to ask for the user’s permissions. So for getting user’s permissions we will be using Dexter for getting user’s permissions in runtime. For using Dexter and we will be also using text drawable dependency for displaying text inside drawable now we have added the below dependency in build.gradle file. Navigate to the Gradle Scripts > build.gradle(Module:app) and add the below dependency in the dependencies section.
implementation ‘com.github.mukeshsolanki:photofilter:1.0.2’
implementation ‘com.karumi:dexter:6.2.2’
Add the JitPack repository to your build file. Add it to your root build.gradle at the end of repositories inside the allprojects{ } section.
allprojects {
repositories {
…
maven { url “https://jitpack.io” }
}
}
Now sync your project and we will move further for working with the AndroidManifest.xml file.
Step 3: Adding permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml
Navigate to the app > AndroidManifest.xml file and add the below permissions to it. Comments are added in the code to get to know in more detail.
XML
<!--permissions to read contacts--><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" /><!--permissions to write contacts--><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" /><!--permissions to make a call--><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"/><!--permissions to send sms--><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS" /><!--permissions to write sms--><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_SMS"/> |
After adding permissions now we will be moving towards creating a new activity for different screens in our app.
Step 4: Creating new empty activities
Creating a new activity for saving new contact:
Refer to the How to Create New Activity in Android Studio and name your activity as CreateNewContactActivity. This activity will be used for creating a new contact for our app.
Creating a new activity for displaying contact details:
Similarly, create another empty activity and name your activity as ContactDetailActivity. This activity will be used to make a call to that contact or for sending an SMS.
Step 5: Working with the activity_main.xml file
Navigate to the app > res > layout > activity_main.xml and add the below code to that file. Below is the code for the activity_main.xml file.
XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" tools:context=".MainActivity"> <!--Recycler view for displaying list of contacts--> <androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView android:id="@+id/idRVContacts" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" /> <!--progress bar for displaying loading--> <ProgressBar android:id="@+id/idPBLoading" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" /> <!--fab for adding a new contact--> <com.google.android.material.floatingactionbutton.FloatingActionButton android:id="@+id/idFABadd" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentEnd="true" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_margin="20dp" android:src="@drawable/ic_account" app:fabCustomSize="40dp" app:tint="@color/white" /></RelativeLayout> |
Step 6: Creating a modal class for storing contacts
Navigate to the app > java > app’s package name > Right-click on it > New > Java class and name it as ContactsModal and add below code to it. Comments are added in the code to get to know in more detail.
Java
public class ContactsModal { // variables for our user name // and contact number. private String userName; private String contactNumber; // constructor public ContactsModal(String userName, String contactNumber) { this.userName = userName; this.contactNumber = contactNumber; } // on below line we have // created getter and setter public String getUserName() { return userName; } public void setUserName(String userName) { this.userName = userName; } public String getContactNumber() { return contactNumber; } public void setContactNumber(String contactNumber) { this.contactNumber = contactNumber; }} |
Step 7: Creating a layout file for the item to be displayed in RecyclerView
Navigate to the app > res > layout > Right-click on it > New > Layout Resource file and name it as contacts_rv_item and add the below code to it. Comments are added in the code to get to know in more detail.
XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/idRLContact" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_margin="3dp"> <!--image view for displaying the first letter of contact--> <ImageView android:id="@+id/idIVContact" android:layout_width="60dp" android:layout_height="60dp" android:layout_margin="8dp" android:padding="3dp" android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher" /> <!--text view for displaying user name--> <TextView android:id="@+id/idTVContactName" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerVertical="true" android:layout_marginStart="8dp" android:layout_marginTop="12dp" android:layout_marginEnd="8dp" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/idIVContact" android:text="Contact Name" android:textColor="@color/black" /></RelativeLayout> |
Step 8: Creating an adapter class for setting data to each item
Navigate to the app > java > your app’s package name > Right-click on it > New > Java class and name it as ContactsRVAdapter and add the below code to it. Comments are added in the code to get to know in more detail.
Java
import android.content.Context;import android.content.Intent;import android.view.LayoutInflater;import android.view.View;import android.view.ViewGroup;import android.widget.ImageView;import android.widget.TextView;import androidx.annotation.NonNull;import androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView;import com.amulyakhare.textdrawable.TextDrawable;import com.amulyakhare.textdrawable.util.ColorGenerator;import java.util.ArrayList;class ContactRVAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<ContactRVAdapter.ViewHolder> { // creating variables for context and array list. private Context context; private ArrayList<ContactsModal> contactsModalArrayList; // creating a constructor public ContactRVAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<ContactsModal> contactsModalArrayList) { this.context = context; this.contactsModalArrayList = contactsModalArrayList; } @NonNull @Override public ContactRVAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) { // passing our layout file for displaying our card item return new ContactRVAdapter.ViewHolder(LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.contacts_rv_item, parent, false)); } // below method is use for filtering data in our array list public void filterList(ArrayList<ContactsModal> filterlist) { // on below line we are passing filtered // array list in our original array list contactsModalArrayList = filterlist; notifyDataSetChanged(); } @Override public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull ContactRVAdapter.ViewHolder holder, int position) { // getting data from array list in our modal. ContactsModal modal = contactsModalArrayList.get(position); // on below line we are setting data to our text view. holder.contactTV.setText(modal.getUserName()); ColorGenerator generator = ColorGenerator.MATERIAL; // or use DEFAULT // generate random color int color = generator.getRandomColor(); // below text drawable is a circular. TextDrawable drawable2 = TextDrawable.builder().beginConfig() .width(100) // width in px .height(100) // height in px .endConfig() // as we are building a circular drawable // we are calling a build round method. // in that method we are passing our text and color. .buildRound(modal.getUserName().substring(0, 1), color); // setting image to our image view on below line. holder.contactIV.setImageDrawable(drawable2); // on below line we are adding on click listener to our item of recycler view. holder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { // on below line we are opening a new activity and passing data to it. Intent i = new Intent(context, ContactDetailActivity.class); i.putExtra("name", modal.getUserName()); i.putExtra("contact", modal.getContactNumber()); // on below line we are starting a new activity, context.startActivity(i); } }); } @Override public int getItemCount() { return contactsModalArrayList.size(); } public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder { // on below line creating a variable // for our image view and text view. private ImageView contactIV; private TextView contactTV; public ViewHolder(@NonNull View itemView) { super(itemView); // initializing our image view and text view. contactIV = itemView.findViewById(R.id.idIVContact); contactTV = itemView.findViewById(R.id.idTVContactName); } }} |
Step 9: Creating a new menu resource file for adding search view in the toolbar
Navigate to the app > res > Right-click on it > New > Android Resource directory and name it as menu after that right-click on the menu and click on New > Menu resource directory. After that name that files as search_menu and add the below code to it. Comments are added in the code to get to know in more detail. or you may refer to this article How to Create Menu Folder & Menu File in Android Studio?
XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!--creating an item for our search view--> <item android:id="@+id/app_bar_search" android:icon="@drawable/ic_account" android:title="Search" app:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView" app:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText" /> </menu> |
Step 10: Working with the MainActivity.java file
