I am making an app similar in design to a Reddit/YouTube/Yahoo News app, it uses the API's to gather information on recent posts.
When you start the app, it displays all the recent posts exactly like this:

The goal is to make all posts conform to a match_parent width and wrap_content height (max 300 dp height) and - just like the picture linked above - make all the posts conform to one look; Title on the top, body/picture in the middle and number of comments underneath.
Let's say my common View layout is something like this:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Lesson 1"
android:textAllCaps="false"
android:textColor="#8c8c8c"
android:textSize="40dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"/>
<ImageButton
android:id="@+id/imageButton1"
android:background="@drawable/lesson1"
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="150dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
<TextView
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="10 Comments"
android:textColor="#000000"/>
</LinearLayout>
I want to replicate this Layout style (Text, Image, Text) every time there is a new post and add it to the existing XML. How would I do this?
