TinyTask

A tiny Android library to create async background tasks. Highly inspired by NanoTasks, but with a funnier API :)

Abstract

Android's AsyncTasks are highly criticized for being bad, unreliable, outdated, etc. Are they perfect? No. Do we have better alternatives? Sure, but sometimes all we want is a quick and simple way to run something in the background.

What is it, really?

Just a tiny wrapper around an AsyncTask, with a funny looking API.

How to download and Install

Add the following to your build.gradle file:

repositories {
  maven {

url "https://jitpack.io"  
}
 
}
  dependencies {
  // ...
compile 'com.github.inaka:tinytask:v1'
// ... 
}

Code Example

The API methods should be self-explanatory :)

TinyTask.perform(new Something<String>() {

 @Override

 public String whichDoes() {

  return doWork();
 // you write this method..

 
}

 
}
).whenDone(new DoThis<String>() {

 @Override

 public void ifOK(String result) {

  Log.i(TAG, result);

 
}

  @Override

 public void ifNotOK(Exception e) {

  Log.i(TAG, e.toString());

 
}

}
).go();
