How to get ParcelableExtra from RecyclerView

Issue

I had one learning project that require RecyclerView item to send his detailed data to another activity with getParcelableExtra, my problem is when I clicked the item, the data is null on detailsActivity then I check it with the log.d, and yes it's null. any solution ;

here's the code main activity

class MainMyRecyclerViewActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private lateinit var binding: ActivityMyrecyclerviewMainBinding
    private lateinit var rvHeroes: RecyclerView
    private val list = ArrayList<Hero>()

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding = ActivityMyrecyclerviewMainBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        setContentView(binding.root)
        rvHeroes = binding.rvMymainRv
        rvHeroes.setHasFixedSize(true)
        list.addAll(listHeroes)
        showRecyclerList()
    }

    private fun showRecyclerList() {
        //on change orientation adapter behavior
        if (applicationContext.resources.configuration.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
            rvHeroes.layoutManager = GridLayoutManager(this, 2)
        } else {
            rvHeroes.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this)
        }

        val listHeroAdapter = ListHeroAdapter(list)
        rvHeroes.adapter = listHeroAdapter

        listHeroAdapter.setOnItemClickCallBack(object : OnItemClickCallback {
            override fun onItemClicked(data: Hero) {
                showSelectedHero(data)
                sendIntent(data)
            }
        })
    }

    private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
        val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

        startActivity(intent)
    }

    private val listHeroes: ArrayList<Hero>
        get() {
            val dataName = resources.getStringArray(R.array.data_name)
            val description = resources.getStringArray(R.array.data_description)
            val dataPhoto = resources.obtainTypedArray(R.array.data_photo)
            val listHero = ArrayList<Hero>()
            for (i in dataName.indices) {
                val hero = Hero(dataName[i], description[i], dataPhoto.getResourceId(i, -1))
                listHero.add(hero)
            }
            return listHero
        }

    private fun showSelectedHero(hero: Hero) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "you selected ${hero.name}", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    }
}

here's the adapter

class ListHeroAdapter(private val listHero: ArrayList<Hero>) :
    RecyclerView.Adapter<ListViewHolder>() {

    private lateinit var onItemClickCallback: OnItemClickCallback

    fun setOnItemClickCallBack(onItemClickCallback: OnItemClickCallback) {
        this.onItemClickCallback = onItemClickCallback
    }

    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ListViewHolder {
        val view: View =
            LayoutInflater.from(parent.context).inflate(R.layout.item_myrecyclerview, parent, false)
        return ListViewHolder(view)
    }

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ListViewHolder, position: Int) {
        val (name, description, photo) = listHero[position]
        holder.imgPhoto.setImageResource(photo)
        holder.tvName.text = name
        holder.tvDescription.text = description
        holder.itemView.setOnClickListener {
            onItemClickCallback.onItemClicked(listHero[holder.adapterPosition])
        }
    }

    override fun getItemCount(): Int = listHero.size
}

this the target activity

class DetailsActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private lateinit var binding: ActivityDetailsBinding

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding = ActivityDetailsBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        setContentView(binding.root)

        val data = intent.getParcelableExtra<Hero>("DATA")

        binding.tvDetailsNameHero.text = data?.name
        binding.tvDetailsDeskription.text = data?.description
        data?.photo?.let { binding.ivDetails.setImageResource(it) }

        Log.d("details data", data?.name.toString())

    }
}

here's is data class I've using

@kotlinx.parcelize.Parcelize
data class Hero(
    var name: String,
    var description: String,
    var photo: Int
) : Parcelable

the interface

interface OnItemClickCallback {

    fun onItemClicked(data: Hero)
}

any suggestion will be good for me, thank you.

Solution

The problem is here

intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

You are sending single item in your intent as a String with the same key name

The first solution would be you need to send your class object And the second solution should send all extra parameters with different key names

the First solution You need to pass your model class object in intent

intent.putExtra("DATA",dataHero);

instead of this

private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
        val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

        startActivity(intent)
    }

The Second solution send data like this with different key names

intent.putExtra("PHOTO", dataHero.photo)
intent.putExtra("NAME", dataHero.name)
intent.putExtra("DESCRIPTION", dataHero.description)

and receive data like this in your details activity

val photo = intent.getStringExtra("PHOTO");
val name = intent.getStringExtra("NAME");
val description = intent.getStringExtra("DESCRIPTION");
