Rxbus + Sticky Events?
sirvon opened this issue · comments
What about making the events sticky?
If I use rxbus with android's sharing mechnism how will I get the event in the activity where
the shared info is received.
The event will be sent before the activity is opened...do I have to persist the event?
would'nt that make a bus irrelevant?
Sticky events can be achieved by way of using a different Subject in your RxBus implementation. For e.g. use a BehaviorSubject
That would make only the last event posted sticky regardless of event type. In eventBus it used to be sticky per evenType .. how would I handle that? Hashmap of eventType, PublishSubject? Feels wrong..
@ursusursus - honestly, I would find a way to workaround needing to use an event bus at that point altogether. The Hashmap would work, but dang that would be pretty heavy handed. I would definitely explore finding alternative ways of handling that usecase at that point.
