Usage

Imperative way - Listener

Step 1: Create Swipe attribute in the Activiy:

private Swipe swipe;

Step 2: Initialize Swipe object and add listener:

@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  info = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.info);
  
  swipe = new Swipe();
  swipe.addListener(new SwipeListener() {
    @Override public void onSwipingLeft(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPING_LEFT");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipedLeft(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPED_LEFT");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipingRight(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPING_RIGHT");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipedRight(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPED_RIGHT");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipingUp(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPING_UP");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipedUp(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPED_UP");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipingDown(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPING_DOWN");
    }

    @Override public void onSwipedDown(final MotionEvent event) {
      info.setText("SWIPED_DOWN");
    }
  });
}

Step 3: override dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event):

@Override public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
  swipe.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
  return super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
}

Reactive way - RxJava

Step 1: Create Swipe attribute and Subscription in the Activiy:

private Swipe swipe;
private Subscription subscription;

Step 2: Initialize Swipe object and subscribe Observable:

@Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  info = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.info);
  
  swipe = new Swipe();
  
  subscription = swipe.observe()
      .subscribeOn(Schedulers.computation())
      .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
      .subscribe(new Action1<SwipeEvent>() {
        @Override public void call(final SwipeEvent swipeEvent) {
          info.setText(swipeEvent.toString());
        }
      });
}

SwipeEvent is an enum with the following values:

public enum SwipeEvent {
  SWIPING_LEFT,
  SWIPED_LEFT,
  SWIPING_RIGHT,
  SWIPED_RIGHT,
  SWIPING_UP,
  SWIPED_UP,
  SWIPING_DOWN,
  SWIPED_DOWN
}

Step 3: override dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event):

@Override public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
  swipe.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
  return super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
}

Step 4: unsubscribe previously created Subscription when it's no longer needed:

@Override protected void onPause() {
  super.onPause();
  if (subscription != null && !subscription.isUnsubscribed()) {
    subscription.unsubscribe();
  }
}
