PubSubMessenger is a Pub/Sub pattern library from ViewModel/Fragment to Activity/Fragment.

PubSubMessenger

Overview

  • PubSubMessenger is a Pub/Sub pattern library.
    • Messaging from ViewModel to Activity/Fragment. For example, Navigation, Dialog, SnackBar and so on.
    • Messaging from Fragment to Activity/Fragment. For example, Fragment callback, DialogFragment callback.
  • PubSubMessenger is Lifecycle-aware like LiveData.
    • You can subscribe to messages at least Lifecycle.State.STARTED.
    • If you publish a message when lifecycle isn't at least STARTED, the message is suspend until at least STARTED.
    • A message consumed automatically when you observed unlike LiveData, SingleLiveEvent and LiveData<Event>.
    • You can subscribe to messages multiple times unlike LiveData and SingleLiveEvent.
    • You cannot use to communication with another Activity. There is risk of losing the message because of killing Activity by OS.
  • PubSubMessenger restricts where you publish and where you subscribe for preventing chaos by like EventBus.
    • You can publish in ViewModel or Fragment.
    • You can subscribe in Activity or Fragment.

pubSubMessenger.publish(SampleMessage("You can pass parameters via the message"))
