Kotlin Android boilerplate project with MVVM architecture using RxJava, Dagger 2, and more!

kotlin-android-boilerplate's Issues

mockito-kotlin lib ties you to Kotlin 1.0.3

Just FYI...if you want to use a different version of Kotlin for your main app, this will conflict.
I'd rather not use mockito-kotlin because of this...

Using Service

Hi,

I'm trying to learn Dagger 2 and MVP pattern and find this repo really clean. I want to use MediaPlayer and in DetailActivity and create also a Background Service. How should I implement Module or Component for this purpose?

Thanks

Issue using PresenterFragment

Hey,
I'm trying to extend PresenterFragment to use like you do with Activites,
however, i'm getting an issue:

kotlin.UninitializedPropertyAccessException: lateinit property presenterLoaderProvider has not been initialized
                                                                                       at com.github.tehras.loanapplication.ui.base.PresenterFragment.onCreateLoader(PresenterFragment.kt:69)

Any ideas why this could be happening?

Fragment Example on MVVM

I like the boilerplate and I plan on basing my app off it, however I have a bottom navigation view with multiple views for my app, so I'd like to see a Fragment example for MVVM. I'm still learning and I fear I will do it wrongly then I end up leaking and only finding out while in production.

Switch to AutoValue + AutoValue-Parcel

subscribeWith

when i use subscribeWith in kotlin, it called is not a subtype of Observer<in Any!>!,do you know why?

Is this really using package by feature?

In this comment in your reddit post about this project, you said that this project is organized using the package by feature approach. I read the article that you linked to, and I think I sort of understand the idea. However, after examining the structure of your project, I couldn't really see any similarities to what was shown in the article. To be fair, I don't see any files called model, presenter or view, but, I do see data and ui, which sort of sounds like model and view to me. I'm not trying to judge or anything, just understand. I don't know if you'll agree with me, but I think this is a really good example of package by feature. Sorry if this came off as cynical or rude, it's definitley not my intention 😄. Hopefully you can shed some light on this for me 😆

Rewrite to MVVM architecture

I recently got a chance to use MVVM & Android Databinding in a project and I really like it. I like to think of MVVM has the evolution of MVP since the "presenter" (ViewModel) doesn't contain an instance of the View.

Callback for when the presenter is available for use in the activity?

I am trying to call my presenter method when the activity is created. But it fails because the presenter is not initialised.

How do I handle situations like this? Is it a good idea to have a callback from PresenterActivity when the presenter is loaded?

Thanks

EDIT: Turns out due to the Presenter Loader concept, the presenter will be available onResume() of the activity.

Set up CI server

Minor improvements

• I think ViewGroup.show()/ViewGroup.hide() extension methods are redundant. ViewGroup is a View.
• View.toggleVisibility() would be a useful addition:

View.toggleVisibility() {
  visibility = if (visibility == View.VISIBLE) View.GONE else VIew.VISIBLE
}

Sorry, too lazy to make a PR currently.

Clean up unit tests

They have too many verifications. Good read: http://www.philosophicalhacker.com/post/how-we-misuse-mocks-for-android-tests

Fragments

Hi,
Could you add sample of multiple fragments in one activity?

Yeomon generator for Kotlin-Android-Boilerplate.

I have created yeomon generator to create kotlin app using this boilerplate. https://github.com/ravidsrk/generator-kotlin-android-boilerplate

If this is useful, you can mention the same in your readme.
