Android Awareness API
Snapshotting your Fences for more Context
Marvin Ramin
android.content.Context?
No, your users Context!
In the beginning there was the GoogleApiClient
(Or just use Servant)
Two APIs you shall use!
- Snapshot API
- Fence API
What is the weather like where my user is?
- Network Client
- https://myfavorite.weather.api/weather?q=Hamburg,de
- Parse JSON response
- Use weather data
What is the weather like where my user is?
Awareness.SnapshotApi.getWeather(googleApiClient)
Snapshot API
- Weather
- Users Activity
- Nearby Places
- Your nearby Beacons
- Location
- Headphone state
The Fence API
Building a Fence
HeadphoneFence.during(HeadphoneState.PLUGGED_IN)
Building a Fence (cont.)
AwarenessFence.and(HeadphoneFence.during(PLUGGED_IN), LocationFence.entering(lat, lng, radius))
Register your fence
FenceUpdateRequest fenceUpdateRequest = new FenceUpdateRequest.Builder()
.addFence("name", fence, pendingIntent)
.build();
Awareness.FenceApi.updateFences(googleApiClient, fenceUpdateRequest)
Receive your result!
PendingIntent
FenceState
Fence API
Location
Activity
Headphone state
Beacons
Too much code, too many callbacks
ReactiveAwareness
reactiveSnapshot.getWeather(context).subscribe(/**/)
ObservableFence.create(context, fence).subscribe(/**/)
