RecyclerView OnClick not working

Question

I have made a horizontal recyclerview inside a fragment. Now when I click on any item I don\'t see the on click listener working. Here is my code for the Adapter class:

1.Simple Click Handler within ViewHolder

RecyclerView does not have special provisions for attaching click handlers to items unlike ListView which has the method setOnItemClickListener(). To achieve a similar effect, we can attach click events within the ViewHolder within our adapter:

public class ContactsAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {
    // ...

    // Used to cache the views within the item layout for fast access
    public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
        public TextView tvName;
        public TextView tvHometown;
        private Context context;

        public ViewHolder(Context context, View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
            this.tvName = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvName);
            this.tvHometown = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvHometown);
            // Store the context
            this.context = context;
            // Attach a click listener to the entire row view
            itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
        }

        // Handles the row being being clicked
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            int position = getLayoutPosition(); // gets item position
            User user = users.get(position);
            // We can access the data within the views
            Toast.makeText(context, tvName.getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    }

    // ...
}

Another way is my preferred way.. but this is also a fine way to go about it.

My onBindViewHolder

@Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(CategoryViewHolder holder, int position) {
        Category category = mCategories.get(position);

        holder.tvTitle.setText(category.getTitle());
        holder.tvDescription.setText(category.getDescription());

        holder.rlContainer.setOnClickListener(mClickListener);
        holder.rlContainer.setTag(holder);
    }

My class level (Adapter object of View.OnClickListner)

View.OnClickListener mClickListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            CategoryViewHolder holder = (CategoryViewHolder) view.getTag();
            int position = holder.getAdapterPosition();

            startAppointmentBookingFor(mCategories.get(position));
        }
    };

so basically attach the listener to any view in your holder (I try to put it on container only), then extract it out on the onclick and handle positions etc.
