RxActivityResults
This library uses the power of RxJava to wrap an Observable android Activity#onActivityResult() method so you can easily request something from other activities and have the result right there in your observabale's subscribe() method.
Main Benifits
- Don't Break The Chain: Prevents you to split your code between the permission request and the result handling. Currently without this library you have to request in one place and handle the result in
Activity#onActivityResult(). - Reactive: All what RX provides about transformation, filter, chaining...
If you have any issues or need more features, you can submit an issue in the issue tracker or make a pull request.
Importing
Add this line to your module's build.gradle file:
dependencies {
compile 'com.mohamadamin.rxactivityresults:rxactivityresults:0.1'
}
Usage
First you need to create an instance of RxActivityResults in your Activity:
RxActivityResults rxActivityResults; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
rxActivityResults = new RxActivityResults(this);
...
}
Then you can use this instance to start an activity for result and have it's result in your observer like this:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, LoginActivity.class);
rxActivityResults.start(loginIntent)
.subscribe(activityResult -> {
// Checking if the result's resultCode is Activity.RESULT_OK
if (activityResult.isOk()) {
Intent responseData = activityResult.getData();
// Do some other things with the response data
}
}
);
Reactive Results
You can use RxActivityResults#composer(Intent intent) method to have an ObservableTransformer to chain your observables together and avoid from breaking the reactive chain:
( Note: we used RxBinding library to turn view clicks into an observable)
Disposable disposable = RxView.clicks(loginButton)
// Fire an intent when the user clicks on the button
.compose(rxActivityResults.composer(getLoginIntent()))
// Filter the activity results which their resultCode is Activity.RESULT_OK
.filter(activityResult -> activityResult.isOk())
// Extract the data intent of the activity result
.map(ActivityResult::getData)
.subscribe(intent -> {
String firstName = intent.getStringExtra(LoginActivity.FIRST_NAME);
String lastName = intent.getStringExtra(LoginActivity.LAST_NAME);
String emailAddress = intent.getStringExtra(LoginActivity.EMAIL_ADDRESS);
String result = getString(R.string.first_name) + ": " + firstName + "\n"
+ getString(R.string.last_name) + ": " + lastName + "\n"
+ getString(R.string.email_address) + ": " + emailAddress + "\n";
loginInfoText.setText(result);
}
);
disposables.add(disposable);
Chain Transformation
You can use RxActivityResults#ensureOkResult(Intent intent) method to have an ObservableTransformer to chain your observables together and avoid from breaking the reactive chain:
Disposable disposable = someAnotherChainOfObservables
// Fire an intent when the user clicks on the button
.compose(rxActivityResults.ensureOkResult(getIntent()))
.switchMap(okResult -> {
if (okResult) {
return someAnotherObservable();
}
else {
return Observable.error(new RuntimeException("Intent didn't return RESULT_OK"));
}
}
)
.flatMap(...)
... disposables.add(disposable);

This library was inspired by RxPermissions, so great thanks to @tbruyelle for his great contribution.
