Bundler
Including in your project
Gradle
Add below codes to your root build.gradle file (not your module build.gradle file).
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
}And add a dependency code to your module's build.gradle file.
dependencies {
implementation "com.github.skydoves:bundler:1.0.4"
}SNAPSHOT
Snapshots of the current development version of Bundler are available, which track the latest versions.
repositories {
maven { url 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/' }
}Usage
Intent
intentOf is an expression for creating an Intent using Kotlin DSL style and we can put extras using the putExtra method. Also, we can put extras using the + keyword in front of a key/value pair.
val intent = intentOf {
putExtra("posterId", poster.id) // put a Long type 'posterId' value.
putExtra("posterName" to poster.name) // put a String type 'posterName' value.
putExtra("poster", poster) // put a Parcelable type 'poster' value.
+("id" to userInfo.id) // put a Long type 'id' value.
+("name" to userInfo.nickname) // put a String type 'name' value.
-"name" // remove a String type 'name' value.
}StartActivity
We can start activities using the intentOf expression like below.
intentOf<SecondActivity> {
putExtra("id" to userInfo.id)
putExtra("name" to userInfo.nickname)
putExtra("poster", poster)
startActivity(this@MainActivity)
}We can also use other options for creating an intent.
intentOf {
setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN)
addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_APP_MUSIC)
setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK)
startActivity(this@MainActivity)
}bundle
bundle is an expression for initializing lazily extra values from the intent.
class SecondActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private val id: Long by bundle("id", -1) // initializes a Long extra value lazily.
private val name: String by bundle("name", "") // initializes a String extra value lazily.
private val poster: Poster? by bundle("poster") // initializes a Parcelable extra value lazily.
// -- stubs -- //We can initialize a Parcelable value with a defaut value.
private val poster: Poster? by bundle("poster") { Poster.create() }Also, we can initialize type of Array and ArrayList using bundleArray and bundleArrayList expression.
// initialize lazily without default values.
private val posterArray by bundleArray<Poster>("posterArray")
private val posterListArray by bundleArrayList<Poster>("posterArrayList")
or
// initialize lazily with default values.
private val posterArray by bundleArray<Poster>("posterArray") { arrayOf() }
private val posterListArray by bundleArrayList<Poster>("posterArrayList") { arrayListOf() }bundle in Fragment
The below example shows setting arguments using the intentOf expression.
arguments = intentOf {
+("id" to userInfo.id)
+("name" to userInfo.nickname)
+("poster" to poster)
}.extrasWe can initialize argument values lazily in Fragments using the bundle expression like below.
- val id: Long = arguments?.getLong("id", -1) ?: -1
+ val id: Long by bundle("id", -1)
- val poster: Poster? = arguments?.getParcelable("poster")
+ val poster: Poster? by bundle("poster")bundleNonNull
The bundle expression for initializing objects (e.g. Bundle, CharSequence, Parcelable, Serializable, Arrays), the property type must be null-able. But If we want to initialize them non-nullable type, we can initialize them to non-nullable type using the bundleNonNull expression.
- val poster: Poster? by bundle("poster")
+ val poster: Poster by bundleNotNull("poster")observeBundle
We can observe the bundle data as LiveData using the observeBundle expression. If there are no extra & arguments in the Activity or Fragment, null will be passed to the observers. The observeBundle emits data only a single time to a single observer. So We can observe only once using one observer. And the observer will be unregistered from the LiveData after observing data at once.
private val id: LiveData<Long> by observeBundle("id", -1L)
private val poster: LiveData<Poster> by observeBundle("poster")
id.observe(this) {
vm.id = it
}
poster.observe(this) {
binding.name = it.name
}bundleValue
We can also retrieve intent & arguments extra values from Activity and Fragment immediately. We can use bundleValue, bundleNonNullValue, bundleArrayValue, bundleArrayListValue.
val id = bundleValue("id", 100L)
val name = bundleValue("name", "")
val poster = bundleValue<Poster>("poster")Find this library useful? ❤️
