Clean, Easy & New Android Architecture Britt Barak Devoxx Belgium

And you...?
One thing is sure Everything will change. Quick.
My First Startup
“As You Like It” / W. Shakespeare ״All the world’s
a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts:״
Players Exits and Entrances Plays a part → Single responsibility
→ Defined interfaces → Separation of concerns
Our Goals - Write quicker - Change easily - Rely
on the code (test) - Easy for others to understand
App Architecture with the new components
Who loves Jelly Beans?
None
None
None
None
Where to start?
Presentation Layer Data Layer Domain Layer
None
Is about: UI Is not about: logic. Presentation Layer
class JellyBeanViewModel extends ViewModel { String flavor; int r; int
g; int b;
@Override protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_add_bean); setViewModel()
setUi(); }
void setViewModel(){ this.viewModel = new JellyBeanViewModel(); }
UI represents the ViewModel state
Presentation Layer Domain Layer View ViewModel User Input
1. Update the viewModel
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser) { switch
(seekBar.getId()) { case R.id.sb_r: viewModel.setR(progress); break; //...
2. View Model notifies
- Callbacks - Data binding - RxJava - LiveData How
to notify?
LiveData - Observable data holder class - Lifecycle-aware - Updates
only on started / resumed state - Removes itself on destroyed state - No memory leaks https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/livedata.html
public class JellyBeanViewModel extends ViewModel { String flavor; LiveData<Integer> r;
LiveData<Integer> g; LiveData<Integer> b;
public class JellyBeanViewModel extends ViewModel { LiveData<Integer> r; public void
setR(int r) { r = validate(r); this.r.setValue(r); }
3. Create an observer
Observer<Integer> colorChangedObserver = (Integer integer) -> { beanIv.setColorFilter(viewModel.getColor()); };
4. Observe ViewModel changes
viewModel.getR() .observe(this, colorChangedObserver); Observer is tied to this lifecycle, and
will be removed as the lifecycle ends. LivaData
Presentation Layer Domain Layer ViewModel View set() User Input notify
Persisting ViewModel
None
setViewModel() -> { this.viewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this) .get(JellyBeanViewModel.class); }
And for more complex ViewModels?
1. Multiple LiveData Objects 2. Separate class → Lifecycle Aware
Suggestions: Peach Dream Peach Pie P
Save The Jelly Bean!
Is about: “objective” data Is not about: caring about the
consumer Data Layer
- Data Model - Repository Data Layer
class JellyBeanViewModel String flavor; int r; int g; int b;
class JellyBean String flavor; String color;
- One per data type (e.g jelly bean, recipe, user….).
- Encapsulates the logic of getting/setting the data. - CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) Repository
class JellyBeanRepo{ }
class JellyBeanRepo{ LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id){ }
LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id) { return myFirebaseClient.getJellyBean(id) }
LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id) { if (cache.hasJellyBean(id)){ return cache.getJellyBean(id); } else{
return myFirebaseClient.getJellyBean(id) } }
LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id) { if (cache.hasJellyBean(id)){ return cache.getJellyBean(id); } else
if (appDatabase.hasJellyBean(id)) { return appDatabase.jellyBeanDao().getJellyBean(id); } else{ return myFirebaseClient.getJellyBean(id) }
LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id) { if (cache.hasJellyBean(id)){ return cache.getJellyBean(id); } else
if (appDatabase.hasJellyBean(id)) { return appDatabase.jellyBeanDao().getJellyBean(id); } else{ return myApiClient.getJellyBean(id) }
Presentation Layer Data Layer ViewModel DataModel ?
Presentation Layer Data Layer Domain Layer DataModel Interactor ViewModel
Is about: converting models Is not about: UI, Data Domain
Layer
Save The Jelly Bean!
1. Create Use Case
class SaveJellyBean extends UseCase { void execute() { }
2. Convert Models
public class SaveJellyBean extends UseCase { public void execute(JellyBeanViewModel viewModel)
{ JellyBean data = prepareDataModel(viewModel); }
JellyBean prepareDataModel(JellyBeanViewModel viewModel){ String beanColorString = String.format("#%06X", (0xFFFFFF & viewModel.getColor()));
JellyBean data = new JellyBean(viewModel.getFlavor(), beanColorString); return data; }
3. Call Repository
public class SaveJellyBean extends UseCase { public void execute(JellyBeanViewModel viewModel)
{ JellyBean data = prepareDataModel(viewModel); repo.saveBean(data); }
4. Execute
Presentation Layer Data Layer Domain Layer DataModel Interactor ViewModel
Presentation Layer Data Layer Domain Layer SaveJellyBean .execute() JellyBeanRepo .save()
Reusing interactors - Edit Jelly Bean screen - Different UI
- Same SaveJellyBean use case
Some more about Repository...
Data Layer Network Service Local DB Cache? Domain Layer Some
Usecase
Local database - Persistence between sessions - Single source of
truth
Room - Wraps SQLite database - Generates boilerplate code -
Verifies queries at compile time - Denies calls on the UI thread
1. Create Entity
@Entity public class JellyBean { @PrimaryKey @NonNull String id; String
flavor; String color;
2. Create Dao
@Dao public interface JellyBeanDao { @Query("select * from jellyBean") LiveData<List<JellyBean>>
getAllJellyBeans(); @Query("select * from jellyBean where id = :beanId") LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String beanId); }
@Insert(onConflict = REPLACE) void insertJellyBean(JellyBean jellyBean); @Delete void deleteJellyBean(JellyBean jellyBean);
3. Create App Database instance
@Database(version = 1, entities = {JellyBean.class}) public abstract class AppDatabase
extends RoomDatabase { private static AppDatabase instance; public abstract JellyBeanDao jellyBeanDao(); //init and destroy code.. }
public static AppDatabase getInMemoryDatabase(Context appContext){ if (instance == null) {
instance = Room.inMemoryDatabaseBuilder( appContext, AppDatabase.class).build(); } return instance; } public static void destroyInstance() { instance = null; }
4. Use from Repository
public LiveData<JellyBean> getJellyBean(String id) { if (cache.hasJellyBean(id)){ //… return appDatabase.jellyBeanDao().getJellyBean(id);
//... }
Presentation Layer Data Layer Domain Layer SaveJellyBean .execute() JellyBeanRepo .save()
LocalDB JellyBeanDao
