Question

Answer 1

or you can just add :

public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.MyViewHolder > {

...
    class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

        public MyViewHolder (View itemView) {
            super(itemView);

            itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    Log.d(TAG, "Element " + getAdapterPosition() + " clicked.");
                }
            });
        }


    }

Answer 2

Within your onClick(View v) you can simply call getLayoutPosition() which will return the position where the click happened. Check the official docs for further information.

So your code would be something like this:

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    switch(getLayoutPosition()){
       //TODO
    }
}

Preferably you should use an Interface to handle the click.

Answer 3

You can get postion from ViewHolder by using getAdapterPosition() method. Like in code below:

public class SergejAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<SergejAdapter.MyViewHolder>{

    ...

    class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener{


        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // here you use position
            int position = getAdapterPosition();
            ...

        }
    }
}
