Moxy

Moxy 2 is out! Check out the migration guide and give it a try!

Moxy is a library that allows for hassle-free implementation of the MVP pattern in an Android Application. Without troubles of lifecycle and boilerplate code!

First principles of using Moxy:

Capabilities

Moxy has a few killer features:

• Presenter stays alive when Activity is being recreated (it simplifies multithread handling)
• Automatical restoration of all content in the recreated Activity (including additional dynamic content)

Example

View interface

interface MainView : MvpView {

    @StateStrategyType(AddToEndSingleStrategy::class)
    fun printLog(msg: String)
}

class MainActivity : MvpAppCompatActivity(), MainView {

    @InjectPresenter
    internal lateinit var presenter: MainPresenter

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    }

    override fun printLog(msg: String) {
        Log.e(TAG, "printLog : msg : $msg activity hash code : ${hashCode()}")
    }

    companion object {
        const val TAG = "MoxyDebug"
    }
}

Presenter

@InjectViewState
class MainPresenter : MvpPresenter<MainView>() {
    override fun onFirstViewAttach() {
        super.onFirstViewAttach()
        Log.e(MainActivity.TAG, "presenter hash code : ${hashCode()}")
        viewState.printLog("TEST")
    }
}

Inject with Dagger2

@Inject
lateinit var daggerPresenter: Lazy<MainPresenter>

@InjectPresenter
lateinit var presenter: MainPresenter

@ProvidePresenter
fun providePresenter(): MainPresenter = daggerPresenter.get()

Android studio and Intellij templates

We will change this template in future In order to avoid tedious task of writing boilerplate code for binding activities, fragments and its presentation parts, we recommend use of Android Studio templates for Moxy.

Integration

(Please replace moxyVersion with the latest version number:

Base modules integration:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy:$moxyVersion"

Java project

annotationProcessor "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-compiler:$moxyVersion"

Kotlin

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

kapt "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-compiler:$moxyVersion"

Default android module integration

For additional base view classes MvpActivity and MvpFragment add this:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-android:$moxyVersion"

AppCompat module integration

If you are going to use AppCompat, you'll need MvpAppCompatActivity and MvpAppCompatFragment classes. Add this:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-app-compat:$moxyVersion"

AndroidX module integration

If you're using AndroidX, you'll need a different implementation for MvpAppCompatActivity and MvpAppCompatFragment classes. Use this one:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-androidx:$moxyVersion"

AndroidX (Google material) module integration

If you're using Google material, use MvpBottomSheetDialogFragment and add this:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-material:$moxyVersion"

Kotlin extensions integration

If you use kotlin, you can declare presenters in your views using property delegate:

class MyFragment: MvpFragment() {
    ...
    private val presenter by moxyPresenter { presenterProvider.get() }
    ...
}

To use MvpDelegateHolder.moxyPresenter, add this:

implementation "com.github.moxy-community:moxy-ktx:$moxyVersion"

New Features and Compiler option for Migration from old version

By default, each MvpView method must have an annotation @StateStrategyType. In the old version of Moxy it was allowed to miss a strategy for methods. In this case a default strategy was applied.

You can fallback to the old behavior. To do this, set the disableEmptyStrategyCheck parameter to true.

disableEmptyStrategyCheck : ‘true’

In this case the default strategy will be AddToEndSingleStrategy. In the old version the default strategy was AddToEndStrategy.

To change default strategy provide for the defaultMoxyStrategy parameter a full class name of the new default strategy.

defaultMoxyStrategy : 'moxy.viewstate.strategy.OneExecutionStateStrategy'

If the compiler finds MvpView method without the @StateStrategyType annotation, it'd show an error via standard method for notifying about compilation problems. For ease of migration from older versions we have provided an additional mechanism: EmptyStrategyHelper. It collects all the errors associated with an empty strategy in one place. Using it, you can easily navigate from the EmptyStrategyHelper directly to the method with a missing strategy.

To switch the error output method enable this option

enableEmptyStrategyHelper : 'true'

How to correctly use compilation flags see in the sample-app build.gradle file

ProGuard\R8

moxy-android, moxy-appcompat, moxy-androidx and moxy-material artifacts already include ProGuard rule files, no additional configuration required. While using standalone moxy you need in including rules from this file manually.

Road Map

• [✓] Provide a migration tool from com.arello-mobile.moxy and its default strategy
• [✓] Kotlin incremental compilation support
• [✓] Remove reflectors and common presenter store
• [✓] Add delivery module support
• [х] Add separate Annotation Processor for migration
• Provide Runtime Implementation
• Research possibility of removing @InjectViewState annotation
