Get clicked item and its position in RecyclerView

I am replacing my ListView with RecyclerView, list showing ok, but I would like to know how to get clicked item and its position, similar to the method OnItemClickListener.onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View v, int position, long id) we use in ListView.

Thanks for ideas!

Based on the link: Why doesn't RecyclerView have onItemClickListener()? and How RecyclerView is different from Listview?, and also @Duncan's general idea, I give my solution here:

• Define one interface RecyclerViewClickListener for a passing message from the adapter to Activity/Fragment:

    public interface RecyclerViewClickListener {
        public void recyclerViewListClicked(View v, int position);
    }
  

• In Activity/Fragment implement the interface, and also pass listener to adapter:

    @Override
    public void recyclerViewListClicked(View v, int position){... ...}
  
    //set up adapter and pass clicked listener this
    myAdapter = new MyRecyclerViewAdapter(context, this);
  

• In Adapter and ViewHolder:

    public class MyRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyRecyclerViewAdapter.ItemViewHolder> {
       ... ... 
       private Context context;
       private static RecyclerViewClickListener itemListener;
  
  
       public MyRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, RecyclerViewClickListener itemListener) {
           this.context = context;
           this.itemListener = itemListener;
           ... ...
       }
  
  
       //ViewHolder class implement OnClickListener, 
       //set clicklistener to itemView and, 
       //send message back to Activity/Fragment 
       public static class ItemViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener{
           ... ...
           public ItemViewHolder(View convertView) {
               super(convertView);
               ... ...
               convertView.setOnClickListener(this);
           }
  
           @Override
           public void onClick(View v) {
               itemListener.recyclerViewListClicked(v, this.getPosition());     
  
           }
       }
    }
  

After testing, it works fine.

[UPDATE]

Since API 22, RecyclerView.ViewHolder.getPosition() is deprecated, so instead with getLayoutPosition().

public class MyRvAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyRvAdapter.MyViewHolder>{
    public Context context;
    public ArrayList<RvDataItem> dataItems;

    ...
    constructor
    overrides
    ...

    class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
        public TextView textView;
        public Context context;

        public MyViewHolder(View itemView, Context context) {
            super(itemView);

            this.context = context;

            this.textView = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.textView);

            // on item click
            itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    // get position
                    int pos = getAdapterPosition();

                    // check if item still exists
                    if(pos != RecyclerView.NO_POSITION){
                        RvDataItem clickedDataItem = dataItems.get(pos);
                        Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), "You clicked " + clickedDataItem.getName(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }
                }
            });
        }
    }
}

Here is an Example to set a Click Listener.

Adapter extends  RecyclerView.Adapter<MessageAdapter.MessageViewHolder> {  ...  }

 public static class MessageViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
        public TextView     tv_msg;
        public TextView     tv_date;
        public TextView     tv_sendTime;
        public ImageView    sharedFile;
        public ProgressBar sendingProgressBar;

        public MessageViewHolder(View v) {
            super(v);
            tv_msg =  (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.tv_msg);
            tv_date = (TextView)  v.findViewById(R.id.tv_date);
            tv_sendTime = (TextView)  v.findViewById(R.id.tv_sendTime);
            sendingProgressBar = (ProgressBar) v.findViewById(R.id.sendingProgressBar);
            sharedFile = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.sharedFile);

            sharedFile.setOnClickListener(this);

        }

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
        int position  =   getAdapterPosition();


            switch (view.getId()){
                case R.id.sharedFile:


                    Log.w("", "Selected"+position);


                    break;
            }
        }

    }

Put this code where you define recycler view in activity.

    rv_list.addOnItemTouchListener(
            new RecyclerItemClickListener(activity, new RecyclerItemClickListener.OnItemClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onItemClick(View v, int position) {

                    Toast.makeText(activity, "" + position, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
            })
    );

Then make separate class and put this code:

import android.content.Context;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.GestureDetector;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;
public class RecyclerItemClickListener implements RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener {

    private OnItemClickListener mListener;
    public interface OnItemClickListener {
        public void onItemClick(View view, int position);
    }
    GestureDetector mGestureDetector;
    public RecyclerItemClickListener(Context context, OnItemClickListener listener) {
        mListener = listener;
        mGestureDetector = new GestureDetector(context, new GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) {
                return true;
            }
        });
    }
    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView view, MotionEvent e) {
        View childView = view.findChildViewUnder(e.getX(), e.getY());
        if (childView != null && mListener != null && mGestureDetector.onTouchEvent(e)) {
            mListener.onItemClick(childView, view.getChildAdapterPosition(childView));
        }
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public void onTouchEvent(RecyclerView view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
    }

    @Override
    public void onRequestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean disallowIntercept) {

    }
}
