Paging library without number

Question

All examples of the new swap library were with the Room library, and Room creates a data source for us. In my own case, I need to create my own data source.

Here is a method in my view model class that should return live data. My vein always returns zero.

 LiveData<PagedList<ApiResult>> getData(){

    LivePagedListProvider<Integer,ApiResult> p = new LivePagedListProvider<Integer, ApiResult>() {
        @Override
        protected DataSource<Integer, ApiResult> createDataSource() {
            return new DataClass();
        }

    };

    listLiveData = p.create(0,new PagedList.Config.Builder()
            .setPageSize(5) //number of items loaded at once
            .setPrefetchDistance(0)// the distance to the end of already loaded list before new data is loaded
            .build());
    return listLiveData;
}

And here is the data class

public class DataClass extends TiledDataSource<ApiResult> {

    private List<ApiResult> result = new ArrayList<>();

    @Override
    public int countItems() {
        return result.size();
    }

    @Override
    public List<ApiResult> loadRange(int startPosition, int count) {

        Call<String> call = NetworkModule.providesWebService().makeRequest();
        call.enqueue(new Callback<String>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(@NonNull Call<String> call, @NonNull Response<String> response) {
                Log.i(DataClass.this.getClass().getSimpleName() + " - onResponse", String.valueOf(response));
                result = parseJson(response.body());
            }

            @Override
            public void onFailure(@NonNull Call<String> call, @NonNull Throwable t) {
                Log.i(DataClass.this.getClass().getSimpleName() + " - onFailure", t.getMessage());
            }

        });

        return result;
    }

}

Answer 1

I think this can help:
 1. countItems () should return DataSource.COUNT_UNDEFINED
 2. loadRange (int startPosition, int count): you can directly execute your request.
 3. Now you can delete the global result variable

, :

listLiveData = p.create(0,new PagedList.Config.Builder()
        .setPageSize(5) //number of items loaded at once
        .setPrefetchDistance(10) //Must be >0 since placeholders are off
        .setEnablePlaceholders(false)
        .build());

:

public class DataClass extends TiledDataSource<ApiResult> {

@Override
public int countItems() {
 return DataSource.COUNT_UNDEFINED;
}

@Override
public List<ApiResult> loadRange(int startPosition, int count) {

 Call<String> call = NetworkModule.providesWebService().makeRequest();
 Response<String> response = call.execute();
 return parseJson(response.body());
}
