How to show a Fragment in a Dialog?

I have created a fragment with some text and an image:

public class ContentFragment extends Fragment {

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {  

        View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_content, container, false);

        return view;  

    }

}

Is there any way to get it to show in a dialog?

For example:

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

builder.setTitle("Showing a fragment in a dialog");

// Load fragment as dialog content somehow

AlertDialog alert = builder.create();

alert.show();

AlertDialog is not supposed to host a fragment.

A workaround you can use is to replace dialog UI, which can be achieved by:

dialog.setContentView(R.layout.fragment_content)

This will just change the dialog view, if you want to bind events or data to the controls inside your fragment, you need to do it after setContentView

Every dialog has setView method which you can create programmatically or inflate, see this example
You should also consider to use a DialogFragment
