MVVM,DataBinding,retrofit and recyclerview

For example, I have a model class name movies and I am fetching the list of movies from an api and I got List<movies> list then I pass this list in recycler view and triggered notifydatasetchanged().

Thenmy question is to bind the data in the XML Should I have to expose my model class for databinding. Is this a correct mvvm pattern? How can I achieve it by binding my XML to ViewModel class?

You can use data binging for your recycler view. You can add:

<data><variable name="movie" type="com.example.myproject.model.Movie"/>
</data>

tag to your recycler view row item XML layout.

Then inside the View Holder class you can implement binding method like this

public void binding(Movie movie){
  movieRowBinding.setMovie(movie);
  movieRowBinding.executePendingBindings();
}
