An app that existed even before Android existed!
Norris is a showcase for modern and well-crafted Android code.
Here you will find a codebase powered by tests in all semantic levels (unit, integration, acceptance) as well an architectural design that promotes discipline over state, using Kotlin Coroutines as foundation for a pragmatic unidirectional dataflow implementation.
This project leverages on api.chucknorris.io as remote data source to implement the following use cases
- User can search for Chuck Norris facts and share them
- Related categories are fetched in the application boostraped and cached
- Application will offer suggestions for queries based on categories names and track query terms provided by user as well
The code is structured in a multi-module fashion, with semantics guided by Clean Architecure; this means that high level modules (like facts
or search
) don't know anything about low-level ones (like networking
or persistance
).
The domain
module defines the core protocols to be implemented by low level details, while aggregates them in high level policies like FetchFacts
I'm writing a series of blog posts related to this project. They will explain some project decisions, as well dive into some details of implementation of this approach for unidirectional data flow, specially with learnings related to Coroutines and Channels.
Coming soon at ubiratansoares.dev
If you want a simple run emulating the PR pipeline, just use the companion script
./emulate-pr-build.sh
It will
- Run static analysers (Ktlint and Detekt)
- Run all unit tests and generate all JaCoCo reports
- Assemble the debug APK
- Run Espresso tests
Please note that an online emulator is required to run this script sucessfully.
- Mathias Schilling, for the Chuck Norris facts REST api
- Material Design Icons for the error states images
- Jetbrains for the amazing developer experience around Kotlin and Coroutines
- Someone in the Web for the Norris clipart ❤️ (I'll be happy to put your name here, ping me!)
