Endless RecyclerView scrolling for different layout managers

EndlessRecyclerViewScrollListener.java

    // before loading more.

    // This happens many times a second during a scroll, so be wary of the code you place here.
    // We are given a few useful parameters to help us work out if we need to load some more data,
    // but first we check if we are waiting for the previous load to finish.
    @Override

        int lastVisibleItemPosition = 0;
        int totalItemCount = mLayoutManager.getItemCount();

        }
        // If it’s still loading, we check to see if the dataset count has
        // changed, if so we conclude it has finished loading and update the current page

        // the visibleThreshold and need to reload more data.

        // threshold should reflect how many total columns there are too
        if (!loading && (lastVisibleItemPosition + visibleThreshold) > totalItemCount) {
            currentPage++;

    }

    // Defines the process for actually loading more data based on page
    public abstract void onLoadMore(int page, int totalItemsCount, RecyclerView view);

}

This does not work with .setStackFromEnd(true)
if you want to add new items to the top wenn swipping down (scrolling up) this do not work propperly

Thank you for this bit of code & especially the comments in it. I was trying to get a deeper understanding of how this works & the comments really help a great deal :) 👍

Awesome code! Thank you for this. Keep up the good work.
