Is a library that is a generic implementation of the Repository pattern applied in the Data layer in Uncle Bob's clean architecture. Now in Kotlin
As developers, we always need to deliver high quality software on time, which is not an easy task. In most tasks, we need to make either a IO operation, whether from the server, db or file, which is a lot of boiler plate. And getting it functioning and efficient every time is a bit challenging due to the many things that you need to take care of. Like separation of concerns, error handling and writing robust code that would not crash on you. I have noticed that this code repeats almost with every user story, and i was basically re-writing the same code, but for different models. So i thought what if i could pass the class with the request and not repeat this code over and over. Hence, please welcome the UseCases lib.
UseCases Library can be included in any Android application that supports Android 4.2 (Gingerbread) and later.
Easiest way to start
// Create Class Dao to expose your models to the lib configuration
// Standard Room init
@Dao
interface UserDao : BaseDao<User>
@Dao
interface RepoDao : BaseDao<Repository>
@Database(entities = [User::class, Repository::class], version = 1)
abstract class AppDatabase : RoomDatabase() {
abstract fun userDao(): UserDao
abstract fun repoDao(): RepoDao
}
// Fastest start
DataServiceFactory(DataServiceConfig.Builder(context).build()).instance!!// all extra features are disabled
// Advanced init
DataServiceFactory(DataServiceConfig.Builder(context)
.baseUrl(API_BASE_URL)
.okHttpBuilder(getOkHttpBuilder())
.withRoom(object : DataBaseManagerUtil {
override fun getDataBaseManager(dataClass: Class<*>): DataBaseManager? {
return RoomManager(db, object : DaoResolver {
override fun <E> getDao(dataClass: Class<E>): BaseDao<E> {
return when (dataClass) {
User::class.java -> db.userDao() as BaseDao<E>
Repository::class.java -> db.repoDao() as BaseDao<E>
else -> throw IllegalArgumentException("")
}
}
})
}
})
.withCache(3, TimeUnit.MINUTES, 8192) // adds a cache layer with maximum size to allocate in bytes
.okHttpBuilder(provideOkHttpClientBuilder())
.okhttpCache(provideCache()) // you can also provide a cache for okHttp
.postExecutionThread(AndroidScheduler.mainThread()) // your implementation of the post execution thread
.build())
.instance!!
Get Object From Server:
dataService.<Order>getObject(GetRequest
.GetRequestBuilder(Order::class.java, true) // true to save result to db, false otherwise.
.url(URL) // if you provided a base url in the DataServiceConfig.Builder
.idColumnName(Order.ID)
.id(orderId)
.build())
.subscribe()
Get Object From DB:
mDataService.<Order>getObject(GetRequest
.GetRequestBuilder(Order::class.java, true)
.idColumnName(Order.ID)
.id(mItemId)
.build())
.subscribe()
Get List From Server:
mDataService.<Order>getList(GetRequest
.GetRequestBuilder(Order::class.java, false)
.fullUrl(FULL_URL) // for server access
.build())
.subscribe()
Get List From DB:
mDataService.<Order>getList(GetRequest
.GetRequestBuilder(Order::class.java, false)
.build())
.subscribe()
Post/Put Object:
mDataService.<MyResponse>postObject(PostRequest // putObject
.PostRequestBuilder(Payload::class.java, true) // Type of expected server response
.idColumnName(Order.ID) // for persistance
.url(URL) // remove for DB access
.payLoad(order) // or HashMap / JSONObject
.responseType(MyResponse::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
Post/Put List:
mDataService.<MyResponse>postList(PostRequest // putList
.PostRequestBuilder(Payload::class.java, true) // Type of expected server response
.payLoad(orders)
.idColumnName(Order.ID) // for persistance
.url(URL) // remove for DB access
.responseType(MyResponse::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
Delete Collection
mDataService().<MyResponse>deleteCollectionByIds(PostRequest // putList
.PostRequestBuilder(Payload::class.java, true)
.payLoad(ids)
.idColumnName(Order.ID) // for persistance
.url(URL) // remove for DB access
.responseType(MyResponse::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
Delete Item:
mDataService().<MyResponse>deleteCollectionByIds(PostRequest // putList
.PostRequestBuilder(Payload::class.java, true)
.payLoad(id)
.idColumnName(Order.ID) // for persistance
.url(URL) // remove for DB access
.responseType(MyResponse::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
Delete All from DB:
mDataService.deleteAll(PostRequest
.PostRequestBuilder(Order::class.java, true)
.idColumnName(Order.ID)
.build())
.subscribe()
Upload File
mDataService.<MyResponse>uploadFile(FileIORequest
.FileIORequestBuilder(FULL_URL, File("")) // always full url
.queuable(true, false) // onWifi, whileCharging
.responseType(MyResponse::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
Download File
mDataService.downloadFile(FileIORequest
.FileIORequestBuilder(FULL_URL, File(""))
.queuable(true, false) // onWifi, whileCharging
.requestType(Order::class.java)
.build())
.subscribe()
