public class CommonItemSpaceDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration {

    private int mSpace = 0;
    private boolean mVerticalOrientation = true;

    public CommonItemSpaceDecoration(int space) {
        this.mSpace = space;
    }

    public CommonItemSpaceDecoration(int space, boolean verticalOrientation) {
        this.mSpace = space;
        this.mVerticalOrientation = verticalOrientation;
    }

    @Override
    public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, View view, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
        outRect.top = SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace);
        if (mVerticalOrientation) {
            if (parent.getChildAdapterPosition(view) == 0) {
                outRect.set(0, SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace), 0, SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace));
            } else {
                outRect.set(0, 0, 0, SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace));
            }
        } else {
            if (parent.getChildAdapterPosition(view) == 0) {
                outRect.set(SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace), 0, 0, 0);
            } else {
                outRect.set(SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace), 0, SizeUtils.dp2px(view.getContext(), mSpace), 0);
            }
        }
    }
}

这将增加每个项目的顶部和底部(或左右)的空间。然后你可以将它设置为你的recyclerView。

recyclerView.addItemDecoration(new CommonItemSpaceDecoration(16));

文件SizeUtils.java

public class SizeUtils {
    public static int dp2px(Context context, float dpValue) {
        final float scale = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density;
        return (int) (dpValue * scale + 0.5f);
    }
}

我们可以使用附加到recyclerview的各种装饰器来装饰物品，例如:

简单地使用下面的…从答案中提取

public class DividerItemDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration {

    private static final int[] ATTRS = new int[]{android.R.attr.listDivider};

    private Drawable mDivider;

    /**
     * Default divider will be used
     */
    public DividerItemDecoration(Context context) {
        final TypedArray styledAttributes = context.obtainStyledAttributes(ATTRS);
        mDivider = styledAttributes.getDrawable(0);
        styledAttributes.recycle();
    }

    /**
     * Custom divider will be used
     */
    public DividerItemDecoration(Context context, int resId) {
        mDivider = ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, resId);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDraw(Canvas c, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
        int left = parent.getPaddingLeft();
        int right = parent.getWidth() - parent.getPaddingRight();

        int childCount = parent.getChildCount();
        for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
            View child = parent.getChildAt(i);

            RecyclerView.LayoutParams params = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

            int top = child.getBottom() + params.bottomMargin;
            int bottom = top + mDivider.getIntrinsicHeight();

            mDivider.setBounds(left, top, right, bottom);
            mDivider.draw(c);
        }
    }
}

然后用上面的方法如下:

RecyclerView.ItemDecoration itemDecoration = new DividerItemDecoration(this, DividerItemDecoration.VERTICAL_LIST);
recyclerView.addItemDecoration(itemDecoration);

这将在列表中的每个项目之间显示分隔符，如下所示:

对于那些想要了解更多细节的人，可以看看这个指南Using the recyclerview_ CodePath Android Cliffnotes。

这里的一些答案建议使用边距，但问题是:

如果你同时添加了上边距和下边距，它们将在项目之间显示为添加的，而且它们将太大。如果只添加其中之一，则整个列表的顶部或底部都没有边距。如果你在上面加上一半的距离，在下面加上一半的距离，外层的边缘就太小了。

因此，唯一美观上正确的解决方案是系统知道在哪里正确应用的分隔符:项目之间，但不是项目的上面或下面。

public class DividerItemDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration {

    private Drawable mDivider;
    private boolean mShowFirstDivider = false;
    private boolean mShowLastDivider = false;


    public DividerItemDecoration(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        final TypedArray a = context
                .obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, new int[]{android.R.attr.listDivider});
        mDivider = a.getDrawable(0);
        a.recycle();
    }

    public DividerItemDecoration(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, boolean showFirstDivider,
            boolean showLastDivider) {
        this(context, attrs);
        mShowFirstDivider = showFirstDivider;
        mShowLastDivider = showLastDivider;
    }

    public DividerItemDecoration(Drawable divider) {
        mDivider = divider;
    }

    public DividerItemDecoration(Drawable divider, boolean showFirstDivider,
            boolean showLastDivider) {
        this(divider);
        mShowFirstDivider = showFirstDivider;
        mShowLastDivider = showLastDivider;
    }

    @Override
    public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, View view, RecyclerView parent,
            RecyclerView.State state) {
        super.getItemOffsets(outRect, view, parent, state);
        if (mDivider == null) {
            return;
        }
        if (parent.getChildPosition(view) < 1) {
            return;
        }

        if (getOrientation(parent) == LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL) {
            outRect.top = mDivider.getIntrinsicHeight();
        } else {
            outRect.left = mDivider.getIntrinsicWidth();
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onDrawOver(Canvas c, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
        if (mDivider == null) {
            super.onDrawOver(c, parent, state);
            return;
        }

        // Initialization needed to avoid compiler warning
        int left = 0, right = 0, top = 0, bottom = 0, size;
        int orientation = getOrientation(parent);
        int childCount = parent.getChildCount();

        if (orientation == LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL) {
            size = mDivider.getIntrinsicHeight();
            left = parent.getPaddingLeft();
            right = parent.getWidth() - parent.getPaddingRight();
        } else { //horizontal
            size = mDivider.getIntrinsicWidth();
            top = parent.getPaddingTop();
            bottom = parent.getHeight() - parent.getPaddingBottom();
        }

        for (int i = mShowFirstDivider ? 0 : 1; i < childCount; i++) {
            View child = parent.getChildAt(i);
            RecyclerView.LayoutParams params = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

            if (orientation == LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL) {
                top = child.getTop() - params.topMargin;
                bottom = top + size;
            } else { //horizontal
                left = child.getLeft() - params.leftMargin;
                right = left + size;
            }
            mDivider.setBounds(left, top, right, bottom);
            mDivider.draw(c);
        }

        // show last divider
        if (mShowLastDivider && childCount > 0) {
            View child = parent.getChildAt(childCount - 1);
            RecyclerView.LayoutParams params = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();
            if (orientation == LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL) {
                top = child.getBottom() + params.bottomMargin;
                bottom = top + size;
            } else { // horizontal
                left = child.getRight() + params.rightMargin;
                right = left + size;
            }
            mDivider.setBounds(left, top, right, bottom);
            mDivider.draw(c);
        }
    }

    private int getOrientation(RecyclerView parent) {
        if (parent.getLayoutManager() instanceof LinearLayoutManager) {
            LinearLayoutManager layoutManager = (LinearLayoutManager) parent.getLayoutManager();
            return layoutManager.getOrientation();
        } else {
            throw new IllegalStateException(
                    "DividerItemDecoration can only be used with a LinearLayoutManager.");
        }
    }
}

然后在你的活动中:

mCategoryRecyclerView.addItemDecoration(
    new DividerItemDecoration(this, null));

或者如果你使用片段:

mCategoryRecyclerView.addItemDecoration(
    new DividerItemDecoration(getActivity(), null));

您可以通过编程方式轻松地添加它。

如果你的布局管理器是线性布局，那么你可以使用:

DividerItemDecoration是一个RecyclerView。ItemDecoration即可以 用作LinearLayoutManager项之间的分隔符。它支持 水平方向和垂直方向。

mDividerItemDecoration =
  new DividerItemDecoration(recyclerView.getContext(),
                            mLayoutManager.getOrientation());
recyclerView.addItemDecoration(mDividerItemDecoration);

源

我认为使用一个简单的分隔器会对你有帮助

为每个项目添加分隔符:

1. 将其添加到可绘制目录line_divider.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<size
    android:width="1dp"
    android:height="1dp" />
<solid android:color="#999999" />
</shape>

2. 创建SimpleDividerItemDecoration类

我用这个例子来定义这个类:

https://gist.github.com/polbins/e37206fbc444207c0e92

package com.example.myapp;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.res.Resources;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.drawable.Drawable;
import android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView;
import android.view.View;
import com.example.myapp.R;

public class SimpleDividerItemDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration{
    private Drawable mDivider;

    public SimpleDividerItemDecoration(Resources resources) {
        mDivider = resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.line_divider);
    }

    public void onDrawOver(Canvas c, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
        int left = parent.getPaddingLeft();
        int right = parent.getWidth() - parent.getPaddingRight();

        int childCount = parent.getChildCount();
        for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
            View child = parent.getChildAt(i);

            RecyclerView.LayoutParams params = (RecyclerView.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

            int top = child.getBottom() + params.bottomMargin;
            int bottom = top + mDivider.getIntrinsicHeight();

            mDivider.setBounds(left, top, right, bottom);
            mDivider.draw(c);
        }
    }
}

3.在使用RecyclerView的活动或片段中，在onCreateView中添加以下内容:

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 RecyclerView myRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) layout.findViewById(R.id.my_recycler_view);
 myRecyclerView.addItemDecoration(new SimpleDividerItemDecoration(getResources()));
 ....
 }

4. 添加项目之间的间距

你只需要添加padding属性到你的项目视图

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="4dp"
>
..... item structure
</RelativeLayout>

如果有人只想在项目之间添加10dp的间距，你可以通过设置一个drawable到DividerItemDecoration来实现:

DividerItemDecoration dividerItemDecoration = new DividerItemDecoration(
    recyclerView.getContext(),
    layoutManager.getOrientation()
);

dividerItemDecoration.setDrawable(
    ContextCompat.getDrawable(getContext(), R.drawable.divider_10dp)
);

recyclerView.addItemDecoration(dividerItemDecoration);

其中，divider_10dpis一个可绘制资源，包含:

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle">
    <size android:height="10dp"/>
    <solid android:color="@android:color/transparent"/>
</shape>
