Example: kotlin swipe listener

open class OnSwipeTouchListener : View.OnTouchListener {

    private val gestureDetector = GestureDetector(GestureListener())

    fun onTouch(event: MotionEvent): Boolean {
        return gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event)
    }

    private inner class GestureListener : GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener() {

        private val SWIPE_THRESHOLD = 100
        private val SWIPE_VELOCITY_THRESHOLD = 100

        override fun onDown(e: MotionEvent): Boolean {
            return true
        }

        override fun onSingleTapConfirmed(e: MotionEvent): Boolean {
            onTouch(e)
            return true
        }


        override fun onFling(e1: MotionEvent, e2: MotionEvent, velocityX: Float, velocityY: Float): Boolean {
            val result = false
            try {
                val diffY = e2.y - e1.y
