Material-components-android: [MaterialAlertDialog] Dismiss Programmatically

[lucianocn]

How can I dismiss MaterialAlertDialog programmatically?
The following code does not work like AlertDialog.Builder:

MaterialAlertDialogBuilder materialAlertDialogBuilder  = new MaterialAlertDialogBuilder(this)
                .setTitle("Example")
                .setPositiveButton("OK", null)
                .show();

materialAlertDialog.dismiss();

You need to call the build create method on the AlertDialog.Builder class (which MaterialAlertDialogBuilder extends from) in order to get an instance of the dialog:

AlertDialog alertDialog = new MaterialAlertDialogBuilder(this)
                .setTitle("Example")
                .setPositiveButton("OK", null)
                .create(); // Not the `build()` method!

// Show the dialog
alertDialog.show();

// Dismiss the dialog once you're done handling stuff
alertDialog.dismiss();
