RxOAuth2 Android Library

Simple reactive extension, that adds support to Retrofit2 based projects which uses OAuth2 authentication.

This library is based on RxJava2.

Core

Description

  • RxOAuthManager provides wrapping for RxJava2 streams, which automatically handles access token expiration and performs token refresh. In case of success, new credentials are stored in SharedPreferences. When refresh token is invalid, the optional logic provided in onRefreshTokenFailed is performed. With custom ErrorChecker, the user may customize access and refresh tokens errors validation
  • OAuthInterceptor, which is provided by RxOAuthManager adds Authorization header with access token to OkHttp requests
  • DefaultOAuthCredentials is the default implementation of OAuthCredentials

Dependencies

compile 'cz.ackee.rxoauth2:core:x.x.x'

Usage

Working sample is provided in app module.

Initialization

Create RxOAuthManager typically in API access layer (in our case, ApiInteractorImpl):

class ApiInteractorImpl @Inject constructor(private val apiDescription: ApiDescription,
                                            context: Context) : ApiInteractor {

    private val rxOAuthManager: RxOAuthManager = RxOAuthManager(
            context = context,
            refreshTokenAction = { refreshToken ->
                apiDescription.refreshToken(refreshToken) // API call for token refresh
            },
            onRefreshTokenFailed = { err ->
                // Fallback, e.g. log out
            })
}

Storing credentials

You can save OAuth credentials with saveCredentials(credentials: OAuthCredentials) method. You may want to do this after receiving credentials from server, e.g. after login or sign in.

    apiDescription.login(name, password)
        .doOnNext { credentials -> rxOAuthManager.saveCredentials(credentials) }

Logout

After logging out, you may want to remove credentials from the store.

apiDescription.logout()
    .doOnNext { response -> rxOAuthManager.clearCredentials() }

Check for access/refresh token expiration

To wrap your requests with OAuth handling, just call wrapWithOAuthHandlingObservable(), wrapWithOAuthHandlingSingle() or wrapWithOAuthHandlingCompletable() on the stream you want. RxOAuthManager supports Observable, Single and Completable.

    apiDescription.getData().wrapWithOAuthHandlingSingle(rxOAuthManager)

RxWrapper

To avoid boilerplate for each request, you may use another library we developed - RxWrapper, which wraps the whole interface functions that use RxJava2 with custom Transformers using compose operator. Now you need to apply wrapWithOAuthHandling...() only once and work with generated wrapper insteado of original apiDescription. If you want to exclude some function from wrapping, just mark it with @NoCompose annotation. Initialization in constructor of Api Interactor:

private var apiWrapper = ApiDescriptionWrapped(apiDescription, object : IComposeWrapper {
        override fun <T : Any?> wrapSingle(): SingleTransformer<T, T> {
            return rxOAuthManager.transformSingle()
        }

        override fun wrapCompletable(): CompletableTransformer {
            return rxOAuthManager.transformCompletable()
        }

        override fun <T : Any?> wrapObservable(): ObservableTransformer<T, T> {
            return rxOAuthManager.transformObservable()
        }
    })

Retrofit2 adapter

Description

From version 2.0.0, new module is available. Now RxOAuth2 wrapping may be provided as Retrofit2 CallAdapter.

Dependencies

compile 'cz.ackee.rxoauth2:retrofit-adapter:x.x.x'

Usage

When creating your API service, just provide RxOAuthCallAdapterFactory to Retrofit builder. If you want to exclude some function from wrapping, just mark it with @IgnoreAuth annotation.

    val apiDescription: ApiDescription = retrofitBuilder
            .client(OkHttpClient.Builder()
                    .addNetworkInterceptor(rxOAuthManager.provideAuthInterceptor())
                    .build())
            .addCallAdapterFactory(RxOAuthCallAdapterFactory(rxOAuthManager))
            .build()
            .create(ApiDescription::class.java)

CHANGELOG

1.0.0

  • Release of lib with RxJava2 support

1.0.3

  • Abstract checker for errors to give user ability to change behavior when to refresh token

2.0.0

  • Artifact naming change: cz.ackee.rxoauth2:rxOAuth -> cz.ackee.rxoauth2:core
  • New module Retrofit adapter is created with artifact cz.ackee.rxoauth2:retrofit-adapter, more on this in section Retrofit2 adapter
  • RxOAuthManager now accepts Context or custom SharedPreferences in the constructor instead of OAuthStore
  • RxOAuthManager now uses lambda action refreshTokenAction: (String) -> Single<OAuthCredentials> instead of RefreshTokenService class
  • RxOAuthManager now uses lambda action onRefreshTokenFailed: (Throwable) -> Unit instead of RefreshTokenFailedListener class.
  • New property expiresIn is added to OAuthCredentials. Now OAuthStore stores token expiration time and RxOAuthManager controls it locally before each request to avoid redundant API calls if access token is expired
  • OAuthStore is now an internal class. The only way to store credentials is saveCredentials(credentials: OAuthCredentials) on RxOAuthManager. The same is with clearCredentials()
  • AuthInterceptor is renamed to OAuthInterceptor an has now only internal constructor. The only way to get an instance is provideAuthInterceptor() function on RxOAuthManager
  • DefaultOAuthCredentials class is added as default implementation of OAuthCredentials
  • DefaultErrorChecker functions were renamed

2.1.0

  • Rename wrapWithOAuthHandlingObservable(), wrapWithOAuthHandlingSingle() and wrapWithOAuthHandlingCompletable() functions, returning transformers to transformObservable(), transformSingle() and transformCompletable() respectively
  • Add Kotlin extensions for RxJava entities: wrapWithOAuthHandlingObservable(), wrapWithOAuthHandlingSingle() and wrapWithOAuthHandlingCompletable()

2.1.1

  • Fix NullPointerException on Completable handling due to null body
