Rxify

Started with a simple demo for the talk at droidconIN 2016, Banglore. Will keep adding more demos and new things here :)

Project Structure

This project :

Zip-yosa (ZipActivity)

Perform API calls asynchronously and wait for the result of both the calls to combine the result. For more information, checkout this article.

  • We are waiting for FluxWeed API call.

  • We are also waiting for Student API call to get hair of Crab.

  • Both the calls executing asynchronously.

  • Problem :

    • Initialise PolyJuice from the results of API calls.
    • Hide the loader after both calls have completed.

    Here's the demo :

Preserving Order in AutoComplete-Search (LibraryActivity)

Depicting the problem of Ordering the results in Auto-Search and solving it using concatMap(). For more information, checkout this [article] (https://medium.com/@ragdroid/rxify-maintaining-order-in-auto-complete-search-d5c46ba26578#.f367qiy0u)

  • Perform Auto-Complete Search using flatMap() - results in unordered results
  • Toggle state to fix it using concatMap()
  • used BookDataSource and calling getBooks(query) on the data source return the results after a delay which is inversely proportional to the length of query string. - this is done to depict the ordering problem
  • used the open-source library used at my current company Fueled - [reclaim] (https://github.com/Fueled/reclaim) which extracts the boiler plate for creation of recyclerview adapter, implementation of MVP for listview items.

Using flatMap() - Order is not maintained.

Using concatMap() - Order is maintained.

Using concatMap()

Ordering problem is fixed, but we shouldn't be updating the list this frequently. switchMap() will improve the results even further :

TO-DO

  • Implement more demos.
