对于那些有问题的staggeredLayoutManager(如https://imgur.com/XVutH5u)

recyclerView的方法:

getChildAdapterPosition(view)
getChildLayoutPosition(view)

有时返回-1作为索引，所以我们可能会遇到设置itemDecor的麻烦。我的解决方案是覆盖已弃用的ItemDecoration的方法:

public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, int itemPosition, RecyclerView parent)

而不是新手:

public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, View view, RecyclerView parent, State state)

是这样的:

recyclerView.addItemDecoration(new RecyclerView.ItemDecoration() {
            @Override
            public void getItemOffsets(Rect outRect, int itemPosition, RecyclerView parent) {
                TheAdapter.VH vh = (TheAdapter.VH) recyclerView.findViewHolderForAdapterPosition(itemPosition);
                View itemView = vh.itemView;    //itemView is the base view of viewHolder
                //or instead of the 2 lines above maybe it's possible to use  View itemView = layoutManager.findViewByPosition(itemPosition)  ... NOT TESTED

                StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams itemLayoutParams = (StaggeredGridLayoutManager.LayoutParams) itemView.getLayoutParams();

                int spanIndex = itemLayoutParams.getSpanIndex();

                if (spanIndex == 0)
                    ...
                else
                    ...
            }
        });

到目前为止似乎对我有用:)

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));

对于StaggeredGridLayoutManager用户，要小心，这里有很多答案，包括投票最多的一个计算项目列，使用以下代码:

int column = position % spanCount

假设第1 /3 /5 /..物品总是放在左边和第二/第四/第六/..物品总是放在右边。这个假设总是正确的吗?不。

假设你的第一件物品是100dp高，第二件只有50dp高，猜猜你的第三件物品位于哪里，左边还是右边?

对于这个问题，有一个非常简单而灵活的解决方案，它只使用适用于每个LayoutManager的XML。

假设你想要一个相等的X间距(例如8dp)。

在另一个布局中包装CardView项 给外层布局填充X/2 (4dp) 使外层布局背景透明

...

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="200dp"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:background="@android:color/transparent"
    android:padding="4dip">

    <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

</LinearLayout>

给你的RecyclerView填充X/2 (4dp)

...

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:padding="4dp" />

就是这样。你有完美的X (8dp)间距。

选择的答案几乎是完美的，但根据空间的不同，项目的宽度可能不相等。(对我来说，这很关键)。所以我最终用这个代码增加了一点空间，所以项目都是相同的宽度。

   class GridSpacingItemDecoration(private val columnCount: Int, @Px preferredSpace: Int, private val includeEdge: Boolean): RecyclerView.ItemDecoration() {

    /**
     * In this algorithm space should divide by 3 without remnant or width of items can have a difference
     * and we want them to be exactly the same
     */
    private val space = if (preferredSpace % 3 == 0) preferredSpace else (preferredSpace + (3 - preferredSpace % 3))

    override fun getItemOffsets(outRect: Rect, view: View, parent: RecyclerView, state: RecyclerView.State?) {
        val position = parent.getChildAdapterPosition(view)

        if (includeEdge) {

            when {
                position % columnCount == 0 -> {
                    outRect.left = space
                    outRect.right = space / 3
                }
                position % columnCount == columnCount - 1 -> {
                    outRect.right = space
                    outRect.left = space / 3
                }
                else -> {
                    outRect.left = space * 2 / 3
                    outRect.right = space * 2 / 3
                }
            }

            if (position < columnCount) {
                outRect.top = space
            }

            outRect.bottom = space

        } else {

            when {
                position % columnCount == 0 -> outRect.right = space * 2 / 3
                position % columnCount == columnCount - 1 -> outRect.left = space * 2 / 3
                else -> {
                    outRect.left = space / 3
                    outRect.right = space / 3
                }
            }

            if (position >= columnCount) {
                outRect.top = space
            }
        }
    }

}

下面的代码工作得很好，每个列都有相同的宽度:

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) {
        int position = parent.getChildAdapterPosition(view); // item position
        int column = position % spanCount; // item column

        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
            }
        }
    }
}

使用

1. 没有优势

int spanCount = 3; // 3 columns
int spacing = 50; // 50px
boolean includeEdge = false;
recyclerView.addItemDecoration(new GridSpacingItemDecoration(spanCount, spacing, includeEdge));

2. 与边缘

int spanCount = 3; // 3 columns
int spacing = 50; // 50px
boolean includeEdge = true;
recyclerView.addItemDecoration(new GridSpacingItemDecoration(spanCount, spacing, includeEdge));
