How to swipe ViewPager images automatically using TimeTask

Here is the code for the automatic scroll the viewpager item:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    AutoScrollViewPager viewPager;

    Integer[] imageId = {R.drawable.commitementlogo, R.drawable.like, R.drawable.like_select, R.drawable.plus};
    String[] imagesName = {"image1","image2","image3","image4"};

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        viewPager= (AutoScrollViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
        viewPager.startAutoScroll();
        viewPager.setInterval(3000);
        viewPager.setCycle(true);
        viewPager.setStopScrollWhenTouch(true);

        PagerAdapter adapter = new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this,imageId,imagesName);
        viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);

    }


}

here CustomDurationScroller class:

public class CustomDurationScroller extends Scroller {

    private double scrollFactor = 1;

    public CustomDurationScroller(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public CustomDurationScroller(Context context, Interpolator interpolator) {
        super(context, interpolator);
    }

    public void setScrollDurationFactor(double scrollFactor) {
        this.scrollFactor = scrollFactor;
    }

    @Override
    public void startScroll(int startX, int startY, int dx, int dy, int duration) {
        super.startScroll(startX, startY, dx, dy, (int)(duration * scrollFactor));
    }
}

and set the adapter same as you previously set.


Your question is already answered here

Add this in your MainActivity.java

//...   
int currentPage = 0;
Timer timer;
final long DELAY_MS = 500;//delay in milliseconds before task is to be executed
final long PERIOD_MS = 3000; // time in milliseconds between successive task executions.


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);

    viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewPager);
    PagerAdapter adapter = new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this,imageId,imagesName);
    viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);

    /*After setting the adapter use the timer */
    final Handler handler = new Handler();
    final Runnable Update = new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            if (currentPage == NUM_PAGES-1) {
                currentPage = 0;
            }
            viewPager.setCurrentItem(currentPage++, true);
         }
     };

    timer = new Timer(); // This will create a new Thread 
    timer.schedule(new TimerTask() { // task to be scheduled
        @Override
        public void run() {
            handler.post(Update);
        }
    }, DELAY_MS, PERIOD_MS);
}
