I am currently working on making call to rest api and show data on UI. I am using rxAndroid and Retrofit. Following is the code :
disposable.add(apiService.getIncidents(1, "true")
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
.map(new Function<IncidentResponse, List<Incident>>() {
@Override
public List<Incident> apply(
@io.reactivex.annotations.NonNull final IncidentResponse incidentResponse)
throws Exception {
return incidentResponse.getIncidents();
}
})
.subscribe(new Consumer<List<Incident>>() {
@Override
public void accept(
@io.reactivex.annotations.NonNull final List<Incident> incidents)
throws Exception {
recyclerView.setAdapter(mIncidentAdapter);
displayIncidents(incidents);
}
})
);
This is working fine and I am able to fetch the data and show on UI. Now as part of enhancement , I need to fetch this data periodically even though my application is in background or killed. I tried the following code :
disposable.add(((apiService.getIncidents(1, "true")).interval(10,TimeUnit.SECONDS))
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
.map(new Function<IncidentResponse, List<Incident>>() {
@Override
public List<Incident> apply(
@io.reactivex.annotations.NonNull final IncidentResponse incidentResponse)
throws Exception {
return incidentResponse.getIncidents();
}
})
.subscribe(new Consumer<List<Incident>>() {
@Override
public void accept(
@io.reactivex.annotations.NonNull final List<Incident> incidents)
throws Exception {
recyclerView.setAdapter(mIncidentAdapter);
displayIncidents(incidents);
}
})
);
But I am getting compilation error at method map that "in Observable cannot be applied". Is this the correct approach or this cannot be done using RxAndroid ?
The answer to your question is use JobScheduler or use a work Manager to run your task at a span of particular interval.
I personally suggest you to use work manager as you can schedule your task to run at a periodic interval even when the application is in background.
MyWorker.kt
class MyWorker(val ctx: Context, val params: WorkerParameters)
: Worker(ctx, params) {
override fun doWork(): Result {
//Here you can run place your api call
return Result.success()
}
Activity.kt
val workManager = WorkManager.getInstance()
val myWork = PeriodicWorkRequest.Builder(MyWorker::class.java, 15, TimeUnit.MINUTES)
.addTag(TAG)
.setConstraints(constraints)
.build()
workManager.enqueueUniquePeriodicWork(TAG, ExistingPeriodicWorkPolicy.KEEP, myWork)//starts work Manager
Here's a working sample This sample will a request every 5 seconds.Change that as necessary
Observable.interval(1, 5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.flatMap(new Function<Long, ObservableSource<List<ActivityGroup>>>() {
@Override
public ObservableSource<List<ActivityGroup>> apply(Long aLong) throws Exception {
return ServiceGenerator.createService(ActivityGroupAPI.class).getActivityGroup().subscribeOn(Schedulers.io());
}
})
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
.subscribe(new DisposableObserver<List<ActivityGroup>>() {
@Override
public void onNext(List<ActivityGroup> activityGroups) {
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
Timber.i("%s: %s", cal.getTime().toString(), activityGroups.size());
}
@Override
public void onError(Throwable e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
@Override
public void onComplete() {
}
});
