What is RXASSETMANAGER?

An RxJava2 implementation of the Android AssetManager.

Any help or contribution is welcome.

How do you GET it?

Use the jcenter() or mavenCentral() repository.

  repositories {
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
  }

Then pick a module.

Core

  dependencies {
    implementation "com.github.jonathanmerritt.rxassetmanager:core:x.y.z"
  }

Core-ext - includes :core automatically.

  dependencies {
    implementation "com.github.jonathanmerritt.rxassetmanager:core-ext:x.y.z"
  }

How do you USE it?

Create an instance.

val manager = RxAssetManager(context)

Then open the asset as an InputStream for the given file name/path.

Core

manager.open("file.txt").subscribe {  }

Or open as InputStreams for the given folder name/path.

Core-ext

manager.listOpen("folder").subscribe {  }

Please check the sample app for more examples.

What does it DO?

Miminally wraps the original android assetmanager into rxjava2 types.

Core - Intended to be a 1:1 copy, it's only diverted from that slighty.

Function Parameters Description Pair Returns
getLocales() none Gets all locales. no Flowable<String>
close() none Closes the asset manager. no Completable
open(String, Int) path: asset file path, mode: file access mode Opens an asset input stream. yes Maybe<InputStream>
openTypeface(String) path: asset file path Opens an asset font. yes Maybe<Typeface>
openFd(String) path: asset file path Opens an asset file descriptor. yes Maybe<AssetFileDescriptor>
list(String) path: asset folder path Lists asset files. no Flowable<String>
openNonAssetFd(Int, String) cookie: non asset file cookie, path: non asset file path Opens a non asset file. yes Maybe<AssetFileDescriptor>
openXmlResourceParser(Int, String) cookie: xml file cookie, path: xml file path Opens a xml resource parser. yes Maybe<XmlResourceParser>

Core-ext - Extends core while adding more functions, mainly listing chains.

Function Parameters Description Pair Returns

openBytes(String, Int) path: asset file path, mode: file access mode Opens asset file as a byte array yes Maybe<ByteArray>
openSave(String, Int, String) path: asset file path, mode: file access mode, to: save to location Opens and save asset file. yes Maybe<File>
openBitmap(String, Int) path: asset file path, mode: file access mode Opens asset file as a bitmap. yes Maybe<Bitmap>
listAll(String, Sorting) path: asset folder path, sorting: comparator object Lists asset files recursively. no Flowable<String>
listOpen(String, Int, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as input streams. yes Flowable<InputStream>
listOpenString(String, Int, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as strings. yes Flowable<String>
listOpenBytes(String, Int, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as byte arrays. yes Flowable<ByteArray>
listOpenSave(String, Int, String, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, to: save to location, all: list all files Lists, opens and saves asset files. yes Flowable<Files>
listOpenBitmap(String, Int, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as bitmaps. yes Flowable<Bitmap>
listOpenTypeface(String, Int, Boolean) path: asset folder path, mode: file access mode, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as type faces. yes Flowable<Typeface>
listOpenFd(String, Boolean) path: asset folder path, all: list all files Lists and opens asset files as file descriptors. yes Flowable<AssetFileDescriptor>
listOpenNonAssetFd(Int, String, Boolean) cookie: non asset file cookie, path: non asset folder path, all: list all files Lists and opens non asset files as file descriptors. yes Flowable<AssetFileDescriptor>
listOpenXmlResourceParser(Int, String, Boolean) cookie: xml file cookie, path: xml folder path, all: list all files Lists and opens files as xml resource parsers. yes Flowable<XmlResourceParser>

TODOs

Probable

  • Properly setup scripts for doc and source jars. (*partially done*)
  • Add testing for the app and mocks for the lib. (*partially done*)
  • Make docs descriptive and add comments.
  • Use an actual versioning structure(debug, release & dev, beta, production & flavors etc...).
  • Put sample app on google play.
  • ...

Possible

  • Figure out a better build configuration(maybe buildSrc and/or .kts).
  • Create an advanced fragment in the sample app, for more real examples.
  • Consider handling errors in the api(?).
  • ...
