Android recyclerView findViewHolderForAdapterPosition returns null

Question

I want to click an item in recyclerView programmatically, I found a way do that:

recyclerView.findViewHolderForAdapterPosition(0).itemView.performClick();
         


        

Answer 1

I know that is very late, but maybe is helpful for other people in the Kotlin era:

 binding.recycler.post {
     val view = binding.recycler.findViewHolderForAdapterPosition(position)?.itemView?.performClick()
 }
