I have an activity with 3 fragments, currently I use ViewPager. I want to implement MVP and communicate between activity presenter and fragment presenters i.e:
But I don't know how to do it in official way. I can use BusEvent but I don't think it's a good practice.
Communication between fragments and activity or vice-versa can be done by using
nnn's answer or you could use ViewModel and LiveData witch provides a cleaner way and respect the lifecycle from fragments and activities which can save from writing a few lines of code in attempt to prevent a a non-visible fragment from receiving data on the background.
First you extend the ViewModel class, initialize the Livedata and some helper methods.
public class MyViewModel extends ViewModel {
private MutableLiveData<String> toFragmentA, toFragmentB;
private MutableLiveData<List<String>> toAllFragments;
public MyViewModel() {
toFragmentA = new MutableLiveData<>();
toFragmentB = new MutableLiveData<>();
toAllFragments = new MutableLiveData<>();
}
public void changeFragmentAData(String value){
toFragmentA.postValue(value);
}
public void changeFragmentBData(String value){
toFragmentB.postValue(value);
}
public void changeFragmentAllData(List<String> value){
toAllFragments.postValue(value);
}
public LiveData<String> getToFragmentA() {
return toFragmentA;
}
public LiveData<List<String>> getToAllFragments() {
return toAllFragments;
}
public LiveData<String> getToFragmentB() {
return toFragmentB;
}
}
Then you initialize the ViewModel on your activity.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private ViewPager viewPager;
private TabLayout tabLayout;
MyViewModel mViewModel;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this)
.get(MyViewModel.class);
viewPager.setAdapter(new Adapter(getSupportFragmentManager()));
}
}
reading the data in the fragments:
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
mViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(getActivity()).get(MyViewModel.class);
mViewModel.getToAllFragments().observe(this, new Observer<List<String>>() {
@Override
public void onChanged(List<String> s) {
myList.addAll(s);
//do something like update a RecyclerView
}
});
mViewModel.getToFragmentA().observe(this, new Observer<String>() {
@Override
public void onChanged(String s) {
mytext = s;
//do something like update a TextView
}
});
}
to change the values of any of the live datas you can use one of the methods in any of the fragments or in the activity:
changeFragmentAData();
changeFragmentBData();
changeFragmentAllData();
Whats happing behind the scenes:
when you use mViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this).get(MyViewModel.class) you are creating a n instance of ViewModel and binding it to the lifecycle of the given activity of fragment so the view model is destroid only the the activity or fragement is stopped. if you use mViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(getActivity()).get(MyViewModel.class)you are bindig it to the lifecycle if the parentactivity`
when you use mViewModel.getToFragmentA().observe() or mViewModel.getToFragmentB().observe() or mViewModel.getToAllFragments().observe() you are connecting the LiveData in MyViewModel class to the given fragment or activity an the value of the onChange() method is updated in all the classes that are observing the method.
I recomend for personal expirience a bit of research about Livedata end ViewModel which ou can on youtube or this link
As per my understanding, for your UseCase, suppose ActivityA have a viewPager having 3 Fragments(FragmentA, FragmentB, FragmentC).
ActivityA have ActivityPresenterA
FragmentA have FragmentPresenterA
As per MVP, FragmentPresenterA should be responsible for all the logical and business flows of FragmentA only and should communicate with FragmentA only. Therefore, FragmentPresenterA can not directly communicate with ActivityPresenterA.
For communication from Fragment to Activity, presenter should not be involved and this should be done as we would communicate in non-MVP architecture, i.e. with the help of interface.
Same applies for Activity to Fragment communication.
For communication between Activity and Fragment read here
You can use one presenter for that case.
Used your Activity Presenter to get all the data that your fragments need. then create an interface class and implement it to your fragments.
For example:
Create a public interface for your PageAFragment (this interface will the bridge of your data from activity to fragment). and use the method of your interface to handle the result from your presenter to view.
This is the example of interface class that I created for received data. for the parameter you can choose what you want it depends on your need, but for me I choose model.
public interface CallbackReceivedData {
void onDataReceived(YourModel model);
}
In MainActivity Class check the instance of fragment that attached into your activity. put your checking instance after you commit the fragment.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
private CallbackReceivedData callbackReceivedData;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//after commit the fragment
if (fragment instanceof PageAFragment){
callbackReceivedData = (CallbackReceivedData)fragment;
}
}
//this is the example method of MainActivity Presenter,
//Imagine it, as your view method.
public void receivedDataFromPresenter(YourModel model){
callbackReceivedData.onDataReceived(model);
}
}
I assumed that the receivedDataFromPresenter is the received method of our view and get data to presenter.
And now we will pass the data from presenter to callbackReceivedData
In PageAFragment implement the CallbackReceivedData and Override the onDataReceived method. Now you can passed the data from activity to your fragment.
public class PageAFragment extends Fragment implements CallbackReceivedData{
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
@Override
public void onDataReceived(YourModel model) {
}
}
Note: Alternative way, you can use Bundle and pass the data with the use of setArguments.
If you want to send Event from Fragment to Activity you can follow this Idea.
Create an Interface class and implement it to your MainActivity and Override the method from interface to your activity, for My case I do it something like this.
Here's my CallbackSendData Class.
public interface CallbackSendData {
void sendDataEvent(String event);
}
Implement CallbackSendData interface to your MainActivity and Override the sendDataEvent method.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements CallbackSendData{
private CallbackReceivedData callbackReceivedData;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//after commit the fragment
if (fragment instanceof PageAFragment){
callbackReceivedData = (CallbackReceivedData)fragment;
}
}
//this is the example method of MainActivity Presenter,
//Imagine it, as your view method.
public void receivedDataFromPresenter(YourModel model){
callbackReceivedData.onDataReceived(model);
}
@Override
public void sendDataEvent(String event){
//You can now send the data to your presenter here.
}
}
And to your PageAFragment you need to use attach method to cast your interface. The attach method called once the fragment is associated with its activity. If you want to understand the lifecycle of fragment just click this link: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html.
public class PageAFragment extends Fragment implements CallbackReceivedData{
private CallbackSendData callbackSendData;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
@Override
public void onDataReceived(YourModel model) {
//Received the data from Activity to Fragment here.
}
@Nullable
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup
container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
return inflater.inflate(R.layout.PagerAFragment, container,
false);
}
@Override
public void onViewCreated(View view, @Nullable Bundle
savedInstanceState) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
Button Eventbutton;
Eventbutton = view.findViewById(R.id.event_button);
Eventbutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
callbackSendData.sendDataEvent("send Data sample");
}
});
}
@Override
public void onAttach(Context context) {
super.onAttach(context);
try{
callbackSendData = (CallbackSendData) context;
}catch (ClassCastException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
And now you can use the CallbackSendData to send the data from activity to fragment.
Note: It's much easier if you are using Dependency Injection to your project, you can use Dagger2 library.
Goodluck.
To communicate between a Fragment and an Activity (whether between their presenters or their classes), you need an interface that your activity implements (like ShoppingInteractor).
This way you can call ((ShoppingInteractor)getActivity()).doSomething() in the fragments. If you want your activity's presenter to handle the task, you need to call the presenter in the doSomething inside the activity.
You can do the same with the fragments with another interface and call the fragment's interactor inside the activity.
You can even have a Presenter getPresenter() inside these interfaces to have access to the actual presenter. (((ShoppingInteractor)getActivity()).getPresenter().sendData(data)). Same goes for the fragments.
Dynamic data:
Here is an example using rxjava2, dagger2 and moxy.
Conditionalities:
The solution is similar to the EventBus, but instead uses Subject with a limited lifetime. It is in the component that is created when the activity starts and is destroyed when it exits. Both activity and fragments have an implicit access to it, they can change the value and respond to it in their own way.
Example project: https://github.com/Anrimian/ViewPagerMvpExample
Static data:
Just use arguments in the fragment and that's it.
If you want to use MVP, the first step is to create one presenter for each View, I mean, If you have 3 fragments, then would have 3 presenters. I think that is a bad idea to create one presenter for 4 views (activity and 3 fragments).
