如果你已经滚动到这个答案，我写了一个等间距库，支持垂直/水平，LTR/RTL，线性布局/GridLayout管理器和边缘包含。它基本上是一个文件，所以你可以复制粘贴该文件到你的代码中。

我试图支持StaggeredGridLayout，但这个布局返回的跨度索引不可靠。我很乐意听到任何有关这方面的建议。

public class GridSpacingItemDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration {

    private int spanCount;
    private int spacing;
    private boolean includeEdge;

    public GridSpacingItemDecoration(int spanCount, int spacing, boolean includeEdge) {
        this.spanCount = spanCount;
        this.spacing = spacing;
        this.includeEdge = includeEdge;
    }

    @Override
    public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, View view, RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
        StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams params = (StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams) view.getLayoutParams();
        int column = params.getSpanIndex();

        if (includeEdge) {
            outRect.left = spacing - column * spacing / spanCount; // spacing - column * ((1f / spanCount) * spacing)
            outRect.right = (column + 1) * spacing / spanCount; // (column + 1) * ((1f / spanCount) * spacing)

            if (position < spanCount) { // top edge
                outRect.top = spacing;
            }
            outRect.bottom = spacing; // item bottom
        } else {
            outRect.left = column * spacing / spanCount; // column * ((1f / spanCount) * spacing)
            outRect.right = spacing - (column + 1) * spacing / spanCount; // spacing - (column + 1) * ((1f /    spanCount) * spacing)
            if (position >= spanCount) {
                outRect.top = spacing; // item top
            }
        }
    }
}

与edwardaa的回答略有不同，不同之处在于列是如何确定的，因为在一些情况下，例如具有不同高度的项目，列不能简单地通过% spanCount确定

RecyclerViews支持ItemDecoration的概念:围绕每个元素的特殊偏移和绘图。从这个答案中可以看出，你可以使用

public class SpacesItemDecoration extends RecyclerView.ItemDecoration {
  private int space;

  public SpacesItemDecoration(int space) {
    this.space = space;
  }

  @Override
  public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, View view, 
      RecyclerView parent, RecyclerView.State state) {
    outRect.left = space;
    outRect.right = space;
    outRect.bottom = space;

    // Add top margin only for the first item to avoid double space between items
    if (parent.getChildLayoutPosition(view) == 0) {
        outRect.top = space;
    } else {
        outRect.top = 0;
    }
  }
}

然后通过

mRecyclerView = (RecyclerView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.my_recycler_view);
int spacingInPixels = getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(R.dimen.spacing);
mRecyclerView.addItemDecoration(new SpacesItemDecoration(spacingInPixels));

只有一个简单的解决方案，您可以记住并在任何需要的地方实施。没有bug，没有疯狂的计算。在卡片/物品布局中放置空白，并在RecyclerView中放置相同大小的填充:

item_layout.xml

<CardView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:margin="10dp">

activity_layout.xml

<RecyclerView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:padding="10dp"/>

更新:

当为儿童使用CardView时，项目之间的空格问题可以通过设置app:cardUseCompatPadding为true来解决。

为更大的边际扩大项目抬高。CardElevation是可选的(使用默认值)。

<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    app:cardUseCompatPadding="true"
    app:cardElevation="2dp">

另一点需要注意的是:

如果total spacing和total itemWidth不等于屏幕宽度，您还需要调整itemWidth，例如，在适配器onBindViewHolder方法

Utils.init(_mActivity);
int width = 0;
if (includeEdge) {
    width = ScreenUtils.getScreenWidth() - spacing * (spanCount + 1);
} else {
    width = ScreenUtils.getScreenWidth() - spacing * (spanCount - 1);
}
int itemWidth = width / spanCount;

ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = (ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams) holder.imageViewAvatar.getLayoutParams();
// suppose the width and height are the same
layoutParams.width = itemWidth;
layoutParams.height = itemWidth;
holder.imageViewAvatar.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
