Star Driver
A library for managing the initialization tasks when an android application startup. It provides a simple way to control the order of tasks.
Version
-
APT/Annotation Processor Tool
-
Gradle Transform Plugin
Work Flow
The Tasks that need to be initialized in the application.
Automatically sort is based on before and after dependencies.
Usage
Build.gradle
implementation project(':stardriver-apt-lib')
implementation project(':stardriver-apt-annotation')
annotationProcessor project(':stardriver-apt-processor')
Init Task
public class AppInitLogger extends IStarDriver {
@Override
public void initialize(Context context, StarDriverResult result) {
try {
// simulation initialization code
Thread.sleep(23);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
result.success = false;
result.errorMessage = e.toString();
return;
}
result.success = true;
}
}
Setting task priorities
Option 1:
public class AppInitTaskHelper {
// you can add the annotation on the field
@StarDriverInit(name = "Application logger")
public AppInitLogger logger;
@StarDriverInit(name = "Info Report", after = {AppInitLogger.class})
public AppInitTaskInfoReporting infoReport;
}
Option 2:
// you can also add the annotation on the class
@StarDriverInit(name = "Account Info")
public class AppInitAccountInfo extends IStarDriver {
@Override
public void initialize(Context context, StarDriverResult result) {
try {
Thread.sleep(10);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
result.success = false;
result.errorMessage = e.toString();
return;
}
result.success = true;
}
}
Application
public class MainApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
// The returned results contain the task name and time-taken.
ArrayList<StarDriverStatisticsResult> results = StarDriverManager.inject(this);
}
}
Plant UML
Copy the output of the build console into the StarDriverDigraph.puml file and install the Plant uml plug-in for Android Studio.
Then you can see the diagram like this.
