Why “doOnError” not working until “err->{}” is not passed to “subscribe()” method












0














I have a following transformation function:



private MutableLiveData<ApiError> apiError = new MutableLiveData<>();
private MutableLiveData<ApiProgress> apiProgress = new MutableLiveData<>();
private CompositeDisposable compositeDisposable = new CompositeDisposable();

// Emit "progress's start" on subscribe and "progress's end" on after success or error.
// Add this to the observable action sequence with ".compose(baseTransformer())" before subscribe.
<T> SingleTransformer<T, T> baseTransformer() {
return upstream -> upstream
.doOnSubscribe(disposable -> {
compositeDisposable.add(disposable);
apiProgress.setValue(ApiProgress.start());
})
.doFinally(() -> apiProgress.setValue(ApiProgress.stop()))
.doOnError(err -> {
apiError.setValue(ApiError.create(err));
});
}


and I am using this function here:



authRepository.login(userName, password)
.compose(baseTransformer())
.subscribe(login -> {
loginData.setValue(login);
});


Problem: My application crashes when trying to login.
Solution



authRepository.login(userName, password)
.compose(baseTransformer())
.subscribe(login -> {
loginData.setValue(login);
}, err -> {});


I don't know why it fixes the problem as "doOnError" should not be dependent on this lambda("err -> {}") to catch the error.



Please suggest any alternative.

  • doOnError lets you peek into the error channel but is does not consume the error. You still need an onError callback or onErrorX operator to really handle the error.

  • 3.1 is correct. It alters external state but the testObserver still receives the error.
