Download example App here or checkout example.

Features

Internal Network State Checking.
On screen Setting's shortcuts to enable Wi-FI or Mobile Data.
Hide unloaded screen during API call and show progress bar with white or transparent background.
"Try Again" same API after enabling Network connection.
Call API only if the Network connection is enabled.
Remove progress bar after successfully loading data on screen.
Show full-screen errors to users and hide unloaded screen from user for better user experience.

Setup

In your Project's build.gradle file:

allprojects {
  repositories {

...
maven {
 url 'https://jitpack.io' 
}

...  
}
 
}

In your Application's or Module's build.gradle file:

dependencies {

...
compile 'com.github.RohitSurwase.API-Calling-Flow:api-calling-flow:1.0'
... 
}

Screenshots

Case 1. when Network connection is not available-


Network Connection is not available	Setting's shortcut to enable Network Connection

Case 2. When Network connection is available and API is successful-


Network Connection is available	API requested	API successful, data loaded

Case 3. When Network connection is available but API is failed-


Network Connection is available	API requested	API failed, error shown

Code Example

Refer to the example for complete implementation and usage.

Step 1: Get reference to root layout of Activity or Fragment. Root layout can be any ViewGroup

Example-

RelativeLayout parentLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.rootLayout);

Step 2: Crete Object of ApiCallingFlow and implement methods.
- 1st parameter - context
- 2nd parameter - parentLayout from step 1
- 3rd parameter - true for transparent background, false for default white background

Step 3: Pass function to call current API on click of try again.

  private void requestTestApi() {

...
 ApiCallingFlow apiCallingFlow = new ApiCallingFlow(this, parentLayout, false) {

 @Override
 public void callCurrentApiHere() {

  //Step 3: Pass function to call current API
  requestTestApi();

 
}

}
;
 ...

}

Step 4: Get current Network state using apiCallingFlow.getNetworkState() and request API accordingly.
Step 5: Call apiCallingFlow.onSuccessResponse() in API success function.
Step 6: Call apiCallingFlow.onErrorResponse() in API error function.
