How to use a specific query in Retrofit with Android?
I have an API
interface which has two overloaded methods:
public interface Api {
@GET("movie/now_playing")
Call<ApiResponse> getMovies(@Query("page") int page);
@GET("search/movie")
Call<ApiResponse> getMovies(@Query("query") String query, @Query("page") int page);
}
First one is used to get now playing movies and the second one to search for movies.
In my MainActivity
I use this code to display the data in a RecyclerView:
MovieViewModel movieViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this).get(MovieViewModel.class);
MovieAdapter adapter = new MovieAdapter(this);
movieViewModel.moviePagedList.observe(this, adapter::submitList);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
This is my MovieViewModel
class:
public class MovieViewModel extends ViewModel {
LiveData<PagedList<ApiResponse.Movie>> moviePagedList;
public MovieViewModel() {
MovieDataSourceFactory movieDataSourceFactory = new MovieDataSourceFactory();
PagedList.Config config = new PagedList.Config.Builder().setEnablePlaceholders(false).setPageSize(20).build();
moviePagedList = new LivePagedListBuilder<>(movieDataSourceFactory, config).build();
}
}
And this my MovieDataSourceFactory
class:
public class MovieDataSourceFactory extends DataSource.Factory<Integer, ApiResponse.Movie> {
private MutableLiveData<PageKeyedDataSource<Integer, ApiResponse.Movie>> movieLiveDataSource = new MutableLiveData<>();
@Override
public DataSource<Integer, ApiResponse.Movie> create() {
MovieDataSource movieDataSource = new MovieDataSource();
movieLiveDataSource.postValue(movieDataSource);
return movieDataSource;
}
}
And this is my MovieDataSource
class:
public class MovieDataSource extends PageKeyedDataSource<Integer, ApiResponse.Movie> {
@Override
public void loadInitial(@NonNull LoadInitialParams<Integer> params, @NonNull LoadInitialCallback<Integer, ApiResponse.Movie> callback) {
Api api = RetrofitClient.getInstance().getApi();
Callback<ApiResponse> call = new Callback<ApiResponse>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(@NonNull Call<ApiResponse> call, @NonNull Response<ApiResponse> response) {
if(response.body() != null){
callback.onResult(response.body().movieList, null, page + 1);
}
}
@Override
public void onFailure(@NonNull Call<ApiResponse> call, @NonNull Throwable t) {}
};
api.getMovies(page).enqueue(call);
}
//loadBefore and loadAfter methods
}
If I run this code, everything works fine, the first query is invoked and I get the result correctly. The question is, how can I dynamically use one or the other?
api.getMovies(query, page).enqueue(call);

What do you mean dynamically use one or the other? Like, having a method that receives for example a@QueryMap
and you just call it with an arbitrary number of query parameters?
– Fred
Nov 20 '18 at 9:27
You say you dynamically want to switch between eithergetMovies()
right? There are multiple ways of doings this, one of them being using a boolean flag. Example:if (true) { api.getMovies(a,b,c) } else { api.getMovies(a,b) }
. The issue with this is an if-statement mess. This can be solved by implementing a strategy pattern.

Thanks for your answer but I it doesn't work. I need this in realtime. Using those 4 lines it is displaying by default the result from the first query. Once I press a button, I want to display the result of the second query, ok? Cand you help me achieve this?

Nov 20 '18 at 10:50
No, this not what I want. Let me explain again. I need that data in real-time. For example, now, in myMainActivity
I use those 4 lines of code to display data in aRecyclerView
, which works fine because is calling the method with one argument. Now I want at button click, to send a String to theapi.getMovies("MyStringFromMaiNQActivity", page).enqueue(call);
in order to use the second method. Am I clear now?
– Johans Bormman
Nov 20 '18 at 10:55
Let's see if I understand you correctly. Sometimes you want to call getMovies with 1 argument and on button click 2 arguments, right?

MainActivity
I use those 4 lines of code to display data in a RecyclerView
, which works fine because is calling the method with one argument. Now I want at button click, to send a String to the api.getMovies("MyStringFromMaiNQActivity", page).enqueue(call);
in order to use the second method. Am I clear now?– Johans Bormman

No, this not what I want. Let me explain again. I need that data in real-time. For example, now, in my
MainActivity
I use those 4 lines of code to display data in a RecyclerView
, which works fine because is calling the method with one argument. Now I want at button click, to send a String to the api.getMovies("MyStringFromMaiNQActivity", page).enqueue(call);

Let's see if I understand you correctly. Sometimes you want to call getMovies with 1 argument and on button click 2 arguments, right?

Can you please be more specific regarding my use-case? Thanks!

What do you mean dynamically use one or the other? Like, having a method that receives for example a
@QueryMap
and you just call it with an arbitrary number of query parameters?– Fred

You say you dynamically want to switch between either
getMovies()
right? There are multiple ways of doings this, one of them being using a boolean flag. Example:if (true) { api.getMovies(a,b,c) } else { api.getMovies(a,b) }
. The issue with this is an if-statement mess. This can be solved by implementing a strategy pattern.– ZUNJAE

jetbrains.com/help/idea/… "When you have a method with lots of conditional logic (i.e., if statements), you're asking for trouble. Conditional logic is notoriously difficult to manage, and may cause you to create an entire state machine inside a single method."
