JarCastingFragments Made Easy
Android library that makes Fragments easy to work with.
- Easy asynchronous callbacks management
Main goal of the library is to allow developers focus more about business logic they are implementing and think less about proper handling of fragment lifecycle.
Current version of the library only provides classes based on Android Support Library Fragment, so you have to include Support Library dependency if you want to use EasyFragment.
Download
Just include Gradle dependency into your project:
compile "com.tananaev:fmelib:${version}"
Callbacks and listeners
It was always a pain to handle various asynchronous callbacks is fragments because fragments can be recreated by Android. With EasyFragment and magic runWhenStarted(Task) method you don't need to worry about it anymore.
public class LoginFragment extends EasyFragment {
...
public void login() {
sendLoginRequest(user -> runWhenStarted(fragmentDestroyed -> {
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), MainActivity.class);
intent.putExtra(MainActivity.USER_KEY, user);
startActivity(intent);
}));
}
...
Task will be executed immediately if fragment is in started state. If it's not currently visible, the task will be executed when fragment is started. If fragment is destroyed, task will be executed with fragmentDestroyed flag allowing you to handle this condition as well.
You can use anonymous clasess or lambda expressions for implementing Task interface. Nice benefit of this approach is that you can cache response using standard Java closure which makes code shorter and simpler. Library will automatically serialize your callback instance and associate it with a new fragment if your activity has been recreated.
Just make sure that all extra variables captured by your Task class or lambda are Serializable.
