Understand the need & Take Away
Problem
Incremental Changes
Vs
Disruptive Changes
Let’s Understand – Why we need?
o Adding completely new information to an existing screen
o New screen in existing flow
o How do we react?
App State
o Altering app state
o Rippling changes
How are we updating App State?
o No consistency
How are we updating App State?
o Many sources of truth
How are we updating App State?
o Multiple communication paths
Is there any better way?
1. Single source of truth for App state
o App State
o Sub states - Domains & Screens
2. State is read only
o Consistent mechanism
o Centralized function
o Explicit object describing what happened
fun somefunction(action: Action, oldState: AppState?) : AppState •
13
3. Pure function changes the state
fun reducer(action: Action, oldState: AppState?) : AppState _
What about unit testing such mechanism?
14
Store

Story so far

16
React to State Changes
o UI Components getting updates
o Subscribe
17
Unidirectional
18
Redux Libs
o ReSwift
o Reductor or ReKotlin
Code Snippets – Activity / ViewController
o External Data Sources
o APIs, Content providers, local databases like SQLite, CoreData.
o Who in the unidirectional flow can take care of this responsibility?
23
Where I will get the Data?
Middleware
Code snippets
LoginActivity
mainStore
middleware
appReducer
AppState
API
authenicationReducer
authenicationState
isFetching=true
LoginStartedAction
newState
showProgressBar
LoginAction
START
FINISH
Unidirectional - contd
LoginActivity
mainStore
middleware
appReducer
AppState
API
authenicationReducer
LoginAction
START FINISH
API
Call backs Hell … What Next ?
3 Steps
o Create a stream
o Transform the stream
o Subscribe to the stream
Libraries - Choices
o iOS – or
o Android – RxKotlin or Kotlin Coroutines (experimental)

LoginActivity

Who will tie up the Observable and the Subscriber?

Unit Testing Middleware — Observables — Stream creators

Unit Testing Middleware — Subscribers — Stream consumers

Summary
https://medium.com/@kmmraj
o Separation of Concerns o Reactive X o Redux
o Testability o Flow less nature of screens o Learning curve
