Avoid button multiple rapid clicks

Question

I have a problem with my app that if the user clicks the button multiple times quickly, then multiple events are generated before even my dialog holding the button disappear

Answer 1

We can do it without any library. Just create one single extension function:

fun View.clickWithDebounce(debounceTime: Long = 600L, action: () -> Unit) {
    this.setOnClickListener(object : View.OnClickListener {
        private var lastClickTime: Long = 0

        override fun onClick(v: View) {
            if (SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - lastClickTime < debounceTime) return
            else action()

            lastClickTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime()
        }
    })
}

View onClick using below code:

buttonShare.clickWithDebounce { 
   // Do anything you want
}
