Create a simple example of using a RatingBar in Android. In this example, we'll create an Android app with a RatingBar, and the user can set the rating using the RatingBar. We'll also display a toast message with the selected rating.
Here is the tutorial for Kotlin
There Are Some Common Attributes for RatingBar:
id | This ID serves as the control's unique identity. |
layout_width | match_parent -> Text area contains fullscreen wrap_content-> Text area contains only text size |
layout_width | match_parent -> Text area contains fullscreen wrap_content-> Text area contains only text size |
numStars | 5 -> How many stars contain in rating bar |
stepSize | 1 -> Every stars value 1 |
Step 1:
File open res/layout/activity_main.xml file −:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_margin="20dp"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RatingBar
android:id="@+id/ratingBar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:numStars="5"
android:stepSize="1.0" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/ratingText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="@id/ratingBar"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:text="Selected Rating: 0.0" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Step 2:
File open com.microappvalley.newtestproject/MainActivity.java file −
Java:
package com.microappvalley.newtestproject;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.annotation.SuppressLint;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.RatingBar;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private RatingBar ratingBar;
private TextView ratingText;
@SuppressLint("MissingInflatedId")
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ratingBar = findViewById(R.id.ratingBar);
ratingText = findViewById(R.id.ratingText);
ratingBar.setOnRatingBarChangeListener(new RatingBar.OnRatingBarChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onRatingChanged(RatingBar ratingBar, float rating, boolean fromUser) {
// Update the text view with the selected rating
ratingText.setText("Selected Rating: " + rating);
// Display a toast message with the selected rating
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Selected Rating: " + rating, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
}
Open Device Manager, run the emulator, and then run the application. Next, check the working output and check the output you declared in your code.
