Pixabay-Lib

Simple Java library for Pixabay API

Pixabay-Lib provides easy access to all available methods of Pixabay API. Can be useful for grabbing some pictures and videos from different categories.

Contains Java object wrappers for any API response
Supports RxJava Observable responses
Convenient request builders

Full list of methods and its params available in Pixabay API Documentation

Installing

Maven

In your pom.xml inside the <dependencies> tag

<dependencies>
    ...
    <dependency>
        <groupId>ru.blizzed</groupId>
        <artifactId>pixabay-lib</artifactId>
        <version>1.0.3</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Gradle

In your build.gradle file inside the dependencies section

Gradle 3.0 and above

dependencies {
   ...
   implementation 'ru.blizzed:pixabay-lib:1.0.3'
}

Below 3.0

dependencies {
    ...
    compile 'ru.blizzed:pixabay-lib:1.0.3'
}

Usage

Initialization

You don't care about language (EN is default)

Pixabay.initialize("your-api-key"));

You need a specific language from available lang list

Pixabay.initialize("your-api-key", LangParam.Lang.RU));

Russian language as example, you can choose any other

Building and executing requests

All methods of Pixabay API are available in Pixabay class after initialization. Use Pixabay.search() for usual case and Pixabay.rxSearch() if you prefer to deal with RxJava and its Observables.

You can pass any params to the call – just take a look at static class PixabayParams that contains completed instances of all parameters.

Imagine that you need to find some pics with animals

Pixabay.search().image(PixabayParams.CATEGORY.of(Category.ANIMALS))
        .execute()
        .getHits()
        .stream()
        .map(PixabayImage::getLargeImageURL)
        .forEach(System.out::println);

or the same but with a set of params (now you are looking for red pics with dog in cat. animals and horizontal orientation)

Pixabay.search().image(
             "dog",
             PixabayParams.CATEGORY.of(Category.ANIMALS),
             PixabayParams.COLORS.of(Color.RED),
             PixabayParams.ORIENTATION.of(Orientation.HORIZONTAL)
        )
        .execute()
        .getHits()
        .stream()
        .map(PixabayImage::getLargeImageURL)
        .forEach(System.out::println);

Callbacks

You can receive callbacks in two ways:

Catching exceptions

try {
    Pixabay.search().image().execute().getHits().forEach(System.out::println);
} catch (PixabayCallException | PixabayErrorException e) {
    // Handle error
}

With listener

Pixabay.search().image().execute(new PixabayCaller.Listener<PixabayResult<PixabayImage>>() {
    @Override
    public void onComplete(PixabayResult<PixabayImage> result, PixabayCaller<PixabayResult<PixabayImage>> apiCaller) {
        // Handle result
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(PixabayError error, PixabayCaller<PixabayResult<PixabayImage>> apiCaller) {
        /* This method triggers you when API has been called but response contains an error */
        // Handle Api Error
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailure(PixabayCallException e, PixabayCaller<PixabayResult<PixabayImage>> apiCaller) {
        /* This method triggers you when call to API cannot be established. E.g. no internet connection */
        // Handle Failure
    }
});

Tip: you can override not all callback methods

Or by using RxJava Observables

Pixabay.rxSearch().image(PixabayParams.CATEGORY.of(Category.ANIMALS));

Requests cancelling

It goes without saying that you can also cancel request immediately if needs

caller.cancel();
