Usage

To use library:

Implement an adapter by subclassing StickyHeaderGridAdapter
Create holder class for each header and item type. Use HeaderViewHolder and ItemViewHolder as base classes.
Override and implement getSectionCount(), getSectionItemCount(int section), onCreateHeaderViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int headerType), onCreateItemViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int itemType), onBindHeaderViewHolder(HeaderViewHolder viewHolder, int section), onBindItemViewHolder(ItemViewHolder viewHolder, int section, int offset).
Create a StickyHeaderGridLayoutManager with required column count and assign it to your RecyclerView.
Use only StickyHeaderGridAdapter::notify* methods

If you need the position of an item in a click listener, always use holder .getAdapterPosition() which will have the correct adapter position.

holder.<clickable view>.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
   @Override
   public void onClick(View v) {
      final int section = getAdapterPositionSection(holder.getAdapterPosition());
      final int offset = getItemSectionOffset(section, holder.getAdapterPosition());

      // Do click action here using setction and offset
   }
});

Span support

Like in GridLayoutManager, use SpanSizeLookup to provide span information.

Individual stickiness

Override adapter isSectionHeaderSticky method and return true to make section header sticky, false otherwise.

Header bottom shadow

Because of the limitation of old Android platforms we cannot use an elevation. Little workaround was made to support bottom header shadows. Use layout manager .setHeaderBottomOverlapMargin method to set size of the header overlapping part and insert shadow into header layout. Overlapping part will be drawn over the first section item.

Header state listener

Use HeaderStateChangeListener to receive information about headers state.
