Building a Versatile Connectivity Observer in Kotlin with the Observer Pattern ??
In Android, we often face the challenge of efficiently monitoring network or any connectivities that are bounded with broadcast receiver. Managing those receivers in a coroutine scope or improving reusability of recievers will be headache. Here, I'm excited to share a solution that leverages the Observer Pattern.
Key Features of this Connectivity Observer:
?? Observer Pattern Implementation: Observer Pattern makes this solution clean and modular, ensuring that updates are propagated efficiently to the observing components.
?? Versatile Connectivity Handling: Whether it's Mobile data, Bluetooth, or other broadcast-based events, this implementation can easily be adapted to monitor different types of connectivity changes, making it a robust and adaptable tool in your Android toolkit.
? Efficient Resource Management: By leveraging Kotlin's Flow and callbackFlow, the implementation provides non-blocking, real-time updates while avoiding potential memory leaks, ensuring a smooth and responsive user experience.
Design Highlights:
? Separation of Concerns: The codebase is organized in a way that different methods handle connectivity changes, making the code easy to understand and extend for new types of connectivity.
I'm excited to share this solution with the community and hear your thoughts.
