response-sanitizer

Sanitizes Retrofit response from null(s) forcing deserializer using Kotlin's default value.

What does it do?

It's pretty simple actually :), it transforms this:

{ "name": "John Doe", "picture": null, "phone_number": null }

to this:

{ "name": "John Doe" }

Why?

Because Kotlin needs missing properties in order to create objects with default values. Hence this will be a welcomed addition to you project I reckon :)

Pitfalls?

Takes a bit of time until it reiterates through all of the entries in your json.

Usage:

Preferably as OkHttp interceptor:

OkHttpClient.Builder()
  .addInterceptor(...)
  .addInterceptor(ResponseSanitizer())
  .addInterceptor(...)
  .build()

or standalone:

val result = Sanitizer { someString.removeNulls() }

In your root build.gradle

allprojects {
  repositories {
    //...
    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
  }
}

Latest version:

In your module build.gradle:

dependencies {
  implementation "com.github.diareuse:response-sanitizer:latest.version"
  //...or
  implementation group: "com.github.diareuse", name: "response-sanitizer", version: "latest.version"
}

OR in your module build.gradle.kts:

dependencies {
  implementation("com.github.diareuse:response-sanitizer:latest.version")
  //...or
  implementation("com.github.diareuse", "response-sanitizer", "latest.version")
}
