• Allow us to observe changes over some kind of
data, and to react to those changes. • Propose a reactive paradigm • Do they do the same? RxJava & LiveData
OBSERVER pattern
OBSERVER pattern Design pattern that defines a dependency between objects
(…), in which one of them changes its state, it notifies about it to all of its dependants
OBSERVER RxJava LiveData pattern
RxJava
RxJava An API for asynchronous programming with observable streams Is
a combination of the best ideas from the Observer pattern, the Iterator pattern, and functional programming ReactiveX RxJava RxSwift RxJS Rx.NET RxPY RxPHP …

Flowable.just(1)
Flowable.just(1) Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)
Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> }, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER) Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3) Flowable.just(1)
Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> s.onNext(1) }, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER) Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)

Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)
Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> s.onNext(1) s.onNext(2) s.onNext(3) s.onComplete() }, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER)
Flowable.just(1) The stream ends here! Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)
Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> s.onNext(1) s.onNext(2) s.onNext(3) s.onComplete() s.onNext(4) }, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER)
Flowable.just(1) Not emitted Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)
Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> s.onNext(1) s.onNext(2) s.onNext(3) s.onError(Throwable(“Error!")) s.onNext(4) }, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER)
Flowable.just(1) Not emitted Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3)
Flowable.fromArray(1,2,3) Flowable.create<Int>({ s -> // heavy transaction... // async operation...
}, BackpressureStrategy.BUFFER) Flowable.just(1)
Event subscription
Flowable.just(1).subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") }, { error ->
log("onError: $error")}, { log("onComplete!") } )
Flowable.just(1).subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") }, { error ->
log("onError: $error")}, { log("onComplete!") } )
val subscription = Flowable.just(1).subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") },
{ error -> log("onError: $error")}, { log("onComplete!") } ) subscription.dispose()
Handling Threads

Flowable.just(1).subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") }, { error ->

Flowable.just(1) .subscribeOn(Schedulers.computation()) .subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") }, {
error -> log("onError: $error")}, { log("onComplete!") } ) Thread in which the operation will be performed
Flowable.just(1) .subscribeOn(Schedulers.computation()) .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread()) .subscribe( { value -> log("onNext: $value") },
{ error -> log("onError: $error")}, { log("onComplete!") } ) Thread in which we will listen to the stream emissions
Operations

RxJava vs LiveData Explicit code ✔ Thread handling ✔ Powerful
Operators ✔ Steep learning curve ✘ Really simple ✔ Android-oriented ✔ Integration with AC ✔ Not so powerful operators ✘ Library compatibility (i.e. Retrofit) ✔ Over-engineered? ✘ Portable knowledge ✔
