AndroidOperationQueue

AndroidOperationQueue is tiny serial operation queue for Android Development.

Setup Gradle

dependencies {
 ...
 compile 'kr.pe.burt.android.lib:androidoperationqueue:0.0.2'
}

Examples

You can see the examples using AndroidOperationQueue at https://github.com/skyfe79/AndroidOperationQueue/tree/master/examples

APIs

Add operations

You can add operation by using below methods.

  • addOperation()
  • addOperationAtFirst()
  • addOperationAtTime()
  • addOperationAfterDelay()
AndroidOperationQueue queue = new AndroidOperationQueue("JobQueue");
queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
 @Override
 public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
  
  // doing job #1
 
 }
}); 

queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
 @Override
 public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
  
  // doing job #2
 
 }
}); 

Remove operations

You can remove operation by using below methods.

  • removeOperation()
  • removeOperations()
  • removeAllOperations()
Operation operation = new Operation() {
 @Override
 public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
  
  // doing job #n
 
 }
};

queue.addOperation(operation);

...

queue.removeOperation(operation);

Start & Stop OperationQueue

You can start or stop Android Operation Queue by using below methods.

  • start()
  • stop()

stop() method removes all pending operations that are in operation queue.

AndroidOperationQueue queue = new AndroidOperationQueue("JobQueue");

// add multiple operations
... 

// start queue
queue.start();


// stop queue
queue.stop();


// you can add operation to same queue.
queue.addOperation( ... );

queue.start();

Share common data among operations via Bundle.

You can share data by using Bundle which is in AndroidOperationQueue. If you want to make operation chain, you want to send some result from the current operation to the next operation. You can add up 1, 2 and 3 by using operation and bundle like below.

queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
        bundle.putInt("sum", 1);
    }
});
queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
        int sum = bundle.getInt("sum");
        bundle.putInt("sum", sum + 2);
    }
});
queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
        int sum = bundle.getInt("sum");
        bundle.putInt("sum", sum + 3);
    }
});
queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
        int sum = bundle.getInt("sum");
        Log.v("SUM", String.format("1+2+3 = %d", sum));
    }
});

Output is

V/SUM: 1+2+3 = 6

Example for downloading images with cache

AndroidOperationQueue downloadQueue = new AndroidOperationQueue("DownloadQueue");

downloadQueue.stop();

downloadQueue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue queue, Bundle bundle) {
        String url = item.getImageURL();
        bundle.putString("url", url);
        AndroidOperation.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                holder.image.setImageBitmap(null);
                holder.line.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
                holder.progressBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            }
        });
    }
});

downloadQueue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue queue, Bundle bundle) {
        String url = bundle.getString("url");
        if(url == null) {
            queue.stop();
        }

        // check the url if there is the url in the memory cache
        if(Cache.sharedInstance().hasURLInMemoryCache(url) == true) {
            final Bitmap bitmap = Cache.sharedInstance().getBitmapFromMemoryCache(url);
            if(bitmap != null) {
                AndroidOperation.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        holder.image.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
                        holder.line.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                        holder.progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
                    }
                });
                queue.stop();
            }
        }
    }
});

downloadQueue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue queue, Bundle bundle) {

        String url = bundle.getString("url");
        if(url == null) {
            queue.stop();
        }

        //check the url if there is the url in the file cache
        if(Cache.sharedInstance().hasURLInFileCache(url) == true) {
            final String path = Cache.sharedInstance().getFilePathFromFileCache(url);
            final Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(path);

            if(bitmap != null) {
                Cache.sharedInstance().putBitmapInMemoryCache(url, bitmap);
                AndroidOperation.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        holder.image.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
                        holder.line.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                        holder.progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

                    }
                });
                queue.stop();
            }
        }
    }
});

downloadQueue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue queue, Bundle bundle) {

        String url = bundle.getString("url");
        if(url == null) {
            queue.stop();
        }


        // there is no bitmap on memory or file then download bitmap from url.
        final Bitmap bitmap = downloadBitmapFromURL(url);
        if(bitmap != null) {
            Cache.sharedInstance().putBitmapInMemoryCache(url, bitmap);
            AndroidOperation.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {

                    holder.progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
                }
            });

            String path = FileUtils.generateTempFileAtExternalStorage("ImageDownloadWithCache", "temp_", ".jpeg");
            boolean success = saveBitmapToPath(bitmap, path);
            if(success) {
                Cache.sharedInstance().putPathInFileCache(url, path);
            }
        }
    }

downloadQueue.start();

Operation Utils

runOnUiThread

If you want to update ui element after some background work, you should do it on main thread(ui thread). AndroidOperation provide convenient class method like below.

queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
    
      // doing background work
     
        AndroidOperation.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                textView.setText("It's completed");
            }
        });
    }
});

runOnUiThreadAfterDelay

You can also use main thread after some time like below.

queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
    
      // doing background work
     
        AndroidOperation.runOnUiThreadAfterDelay(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                textView.setText("It's completed");
            }
        }, 1000);
    }
});

sleep

You can sleep current opertation thread for some time like below.

queue.addOperation(new Operation() {
    @Override
    public void run(AndroidOperationQueue q, Bundle bundle) {
    
      // doing background work
     
        AndroidOperation.runOnUiThreadAfterDelay(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                textView.setText("It's completed");
            }
        }, 1000);
        
        AndroidOperation.sleep(1000); // sleep for 1 second.
    }
});
