How to retrieve + fill Php URL JSON parsing multiple records one by one into CardView inside RecyclerView.

RecyclerView is the upgraded version of ListView with multiple more extended features and it can also be created by dynamic data. Here dynamic data means the data( All the records ) directly coming from online server with the use of PHP scripting code that is also coming from MySQL database. So here is the complete step by step tutorial for Android Create RecyclerView using JSON parsing online server data example tutorial.

Note : Project download folder contain all the source code with whole android project and all the php scripting files with MySQL database included.

List of All the Java programming files inside this project :

1. MainActivity.java  .
2. GetDataAdapter.java .
3. RecyclerViewAdapter.java .

List of all layout files inside this project :

1. activity_main.xml .
2. recyclerview_items.xml .

List of All PHP scripting files, which help us to convert MySQL database data into JSON format.

1. jsonData.php .
2. dbconfig.php .

Note: Read below steps very carefully to add Volley,RecyclerView and CardView library inside your current project.

1. Open your project’s build.gradle ( Module : app ) file.

2. Please add below code inside your build.gradle ( Module : app ) file.

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'

compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.0.+'

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.+'

compile 'com.mcxiaoke.volley:library:1.0.19'

3. Screenshot of build.gradle ( Module : app ) file after adding above code.

Next step is to add Internet permission inside AndroidManifest.xml file.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />

Here your go friends, Now start coding .
