Slide In button effect of List View item for Android

I'm porting an iPhone app into android app and one of the difficulties is recreating functionalities that are native to iPhone. I found a native functionality of iPhone: When user execute slide touch on a listed item in list view, a delete button appears. Is there a version for this in android? Can it be used and reused/customized?

 Resource for Android Slight Left/Right Slide action on listview

I am not sure if this question has been asked here or not. I look for a way to simulate the slide action in listview of Android. Similar to that of Samsung Galaxy/Nexus contact list actions. As you can see from the below image I am sliding to the right and a different view is shown in place of the contact. (no number view)
