Best Way To Compare Dates

<h1>Best Way To Compare Dates in Android</h1>

Sometimes we need to do a list with dates, like

today with hour

yesterday with yesterday

other days with 23/06/2017

To make this we need to compare current time with our data.

Example in GitHub

Public class DateUtil {

    Public static int getDateDayOfMonth (Date date) {
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance ();
        Calendar.setTime (date);
        Return calendar.get (Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    }

    Public static int getCurrentDayOfMonth () {
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance ();
        Return calendar.get (Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    }

    Public static String convertMillisSecondsToHourString (long millisSecond) {
        Date date = new Date (millisSecond);
        Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("HH: mm");
        Return formatter.format (date);
    }

    Public static String convertMillisSecondsToDateString (long millisSecond) {
        Date date = new Date (millisSecond);
        Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat ("dd / MM / yyyy");
        Return formatter.format (date);
    }

    Public static long convertToMillisSecond (Date date) {
        Return date.getTime ();
    }

    Public static String compare (String stringData, String yesterday) {

        String result = "";

        SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat ("yyyy-MM-dd HH: mm: ss");
        Date date = null;

        Try {
            Date = simpleDateFormat.parse (stringData);
        } Catch (ParseException e) {
            E.printStackTrace ();
        }

        Long millisSecond = convertToMillisSecond (date);
        Long currencyMillisSecond = System.currentTimeMillis ();

        If (currencyMillisSecond> millisSecond) {
            Long diff = currencyMillisSecond - millisSecond;
            Long day = 86400000L;

            If (diff <day && getCurrentDayOfMonth () == getDateDayOfMonth (date)) {
                Result = convertMillisSecondsToHourString (millisSecond);

            } Else if (diff <(day * 2) && getCurrentDayOfMonth () -1 == getDateDayOfMonth (date)) {
                Result = yesterday;
            } Else {
                Result = convertMillisSecondsToDateString (millisSecond);
            }
        }

        Return result;
    }
}

Remove item recyclerView

Delete item recyclerView

When we delete a item in our recyclerView, first step is in our adapter We must to add this:

void deleteItem(int index) {
        mDataset.remove(index);
        notifyItemRemoved(index);
    }

And now our fragment or activity we call the method like this:

mAdapter.deleteItem(position);

The example is in GitHub

Hopefully this steps will help you removing items from a recycler view, please, drop us a comment if you have any problems with this code.

how to test the server call with Mockito, Retrofit and RxJava

In this example you can learn how to test server call with Mockito and RxJava, We need this elements:

1. Service
2. RemoteDataSource
3. RemoteDataSourceTest

how to test the server call with Mockito, Retrofit and RxJava

Simple Service:

public interface Service {
    String URL_BASE = "https://guessthebeach.herokuapp.com/api/";

    @GET("topics/")
    Observable<List<Topics>> getTopicsRx();

}

For RemoteDataSource

public class RemoteDataSource implements Service {

    private Service api;

    public RemoteDataSource(Retrofit retrofit) {


        this.api = retrofit.create(Service.class);
    }


    @Override
    public Observable<List<Topics>> getTopicsRx() {
        return api.getTopicsRx();
    }
}

The key is MockWebServer from okhttp3.

This library makes it easy to test that your app Does The Right Thing when it makes HTTP and HTTPS calls. It lets you specify which responses to return and then verify that requests were made as expected.

Because it exercises your full HTTP stack, you can be confident that you’re testing everything. You can even copy & paste HTTP responses from your real web server to create representative test cases. Or test that your code survives in awkward-to-reproduce situations like 500 errors or slow-loading responses.

Use MockWebServer the same way that you use mocking frameworks like Mockito:

  1. Script the mocks.
  2. Run application code.
  3. Verify that the expected requests were made.

Here’s a complete example in RemoteDataSourceTest:

 
public class RemoteDataSourceTest {

    List<Topics> mResultList;
    MockWebServer mMockWebServer;
    TestSubscriber<List<Topics>> mSubscriber;

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        Topics topics = new Topics(1, "Discern The Beach");
        Topics topicsTwo = new Topics(2, "Discern The Football Player");
        mResultList = new ArrayList();
        mResultList.add(topics);
        mResultList.add(topicsTwo);

        mMockWebServer = new MockWebServer();
        mSubscriber = new TestSubscriber<>();
    }

    @Test
    public void serverCallWithError() {
        //Given
        String url = "dfdf/";
        mMockWebServer.enqueue(new MockResponse().setBody(new Gson().toJson(mResultList)));
        Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
                .addCallAdapterFactory(RxJavaCallAdapterFactory.create())
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
                .baseUrl(mMockWebServer.url(url))
                .build();
        RemoteDataSource remoteDataSource = new RemoteDataSource(retrofit);

        //When
        remoteDataSource.getTopicsRx().subscribe(mSubscriber);

        //Then
        mSubscriber.assertNoErrors();
        mSubscriber.assertCompleted();
    }

    @Test
    public void severCallWithSuccessful() {
        //Given
        String url = "https://guessthebeach.herokuapp.com/api/";
        mMockWebServer.enqueue(new MockResponse().setBody(new Gson().toJson(mResultList)));
        Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
                .addCallAdapterFactory(RxJavaCallAdapterFactory.create())
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
                .baseUrl(mMockWebServer.url(url))
                .build();
        RemoteDataSource remoteDataSource = new RemoteDataSource(retrofit);

        //When
        remoteDataSource.getTopicsRx().subscribe(mSubscriber);

        //Then
        mSubscriber.assertNoErrors();
        mSubscriber.assertCompleted();
    }

}

Learn RxJava

In this example you can understand different elements of RxJava with Strings.

Simple
This method creates an Observable such that when an Observer subscribes, the onNext() of the Observer is immediately called with the argument provided to Observable.just(). The onCompleted() will then be called since the Observable has no other values to emit.

Observable.create(subcriber ->{
        subcriber.onNext("Hello");
        subcriber.onNext("Javier Gonzalez");
        subcriber.onCompleated();
    });

Now with Exception:

    Observable.create(subcriber ->{
        subcriber.onNext("Hello");
        subcriber.onNext("Javier Gonzalez");
        subcriber.onError(new Exception("iOS user now allowed"));
    });

And there are another different ways to do:

    Observable.just("Hello again...");

    Observable.from(Arrays.asList("Hello", "again..."));

    Observable.from(new String[]{"Hello", "again..."});

    Observable.concat(Observable.just("Hello"), Observable.just("again..."));

    Observable.merge(Observable.just("Hello", "again..."), Observable.never());
