ViewModel详解

ViewModel是用来存储和管理UI相关数据的。

1、实现ViewModel

 public class MyViewModel extends ViewModel {
    private MutableLiveData<List<User>> users;
    public LiveData<List<User>> getUsers() {
        if (users == null) {
            users = new MutableLiveData<List<User>>();
            loadUsers();
        }
        return users;
    }

    private void loadUsers() {
        // Do an asynchronous operation to fetch users.
    }
}

ViewModel中一般使用LiveData存储数据。
在UI中获取ViewModel

 public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Create a ViewModel the first time the system calls an activity's onCreate() method.
        // Re-created activities receive the same MyViewModel instance created by the first activity.

        MyViewModel model = new ViewModelProvider(this).get(MyViewModel.class);
        model.getUsers().observe(this, users -> {
            // update UI
        });
    }
}

Activity重建之后，同样能获取到同一个ViewModel，实现数据复用的目的，具体原理在源码部分讲解。
Activity销毁时，ViewModel的onCleared方法会被调用，可以在此方法中清理资源等。
注意：ViewModel不能持有View, LifeCycle，或Activity context的引用。
我们可以继承AndroidViewModel来获取application context。

2、ViewModel的生命周期

3、在Fragment之间共享数据

Fragment可以在同一个Activity 范围内共享ViewModel。

 public class SharedViewModel extends ViewModel {
    private final MutableLiveData<Item> selected = new MutableLiveData<Item>();

    public void select(Item item) {
        selected.setValue(item);
    }

    public LiveData<Item> getSelected() {
        return selected;
    }
}


public class MasterFragment extends Fragment {
    private SharedViewModel model;

    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        model = new ViewModelProvider(requireActivity()).get(SharedViewModel.class);
        itemSelector.setOnClickListener(item -> {
            model.select(item);
        });
    }
}

public class DetailFragment extends Fragment {

    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState);
        SharedViewModel model = new ViewModelProvider(requireActivity()).get(SharedViewModel.class);
        model.getSelected().observe(getViewLifecycleOwner(), item -> {
           // Update the UI.
        });
    }
}

4、源码浅析

ViewModel包中主要包含这几个类

 public class AndroidViewModel extends ViewModel {
    @SuppressLint("StaticFieldLeak")
    private Application mApplication;

    public AndroidViewModel(@NonNull Application application) {
        mApplication = application;
    }

    /**
     * Return the application.
     */
    @SuppressWarnings("TypeParameterUnusedInFormals")
    @NonNull
    public <T extends Application> T getApplication() {
        //noinspection unchecked
        return (T) mApplication;
    }
}

AndroidViewModel继承自ViewModel，它提供了一个接受Application的构造方法。

 public class ViewModelStore {

    private final HashMap<String, ViewModel> mMap = new HashMap<>();

    final void put(String key, ViewModel viewModel) {
        ViewModel oldViewModel = mMap.put(key, viewModel);
        if (oldViewModel != null) {
            oldViewModel.onCleared();
        }
    }

    final ViewModel get(String key) {
        return mMap.get(key);
    }

    Set<String> keys() {
        return new HashSet<>(mMap.keySet());
    }

    /**
     *  Clears internal storage and notifies ViewModels that they are no longer used.
     */
    public final void clear() {
        for (ViewModel vm : mMap.values()) {
            vm.clear();
        }
        mMap.clear();
    }
}

ViewModelStore是用来存储ViewModel的，在其所依附的Activity或Fragment销毁时，会调用clear方法。

 public interface ViewModelStoreOwner {
    /**
     * Returns owned {@link ViewModelStore}
     *
     * @return a {@code ViewModelStore}
     */
    @NonNull
    ViewModelStore getViewModelStore();
}

ViewModelStoreOwner提供了getViewModelStore方法来获取ViewModelStore。

 public <T extends ViewModel> T get(@NonNull Class<T> modelClass) {
        String canonicalName = modelClass.getCanonicalName();
        if (canonicalName == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Local and anonymous classes can not be ViewModels");
        }
        return get(DEFAULT_KEY + ":" + canonicalName, modelClass);
    }

public ViewModelProvider(@NonNull ViewModelStoreOwner owner, @NonNull Factory factory) {
       this(owner.getViewModelStore(), factory);
   }

先通过owner获取ViewModelStore。

 public <T extends ViewModel> T get(@NonNull String key, @NonNull Class<T> modelClass) {
        ViewModel viewModel = mViewModelStore.get(key);

        if (modelClass.isInstance(viewModel)) {
            //noinspection unchecked
            return (T) viewModel;
        } else {
            //noinspection StatementWithEmptyBody
            if (viewModel != null) {
                // TODO: log a warning.
            }
        }
        if (mFactory instanceof KeyedFactory) {
            viewModel = ((KeyedFactory) (mFactory)).create(key, modelClass);
        } else {
            viewModel = (mFactory).create(modelClass);
        }
        mViewModelStore.put(key, viewModel);
        //noinspection unchecked
        return (T) viewModel;
    }

ViewModelProvider的主要方法是get方法，先从ViewModelStore中获取，获取不到，通过Factory创建，放入ViewModelStore并返回。
另外提供了两个Factory的实现

 public static class NewInstanceFactory implements Factory {

        @SuppressWarnings("ClassNewInstance")
        @NonNull
        @Override
        public <T extends ViewModel> T create(@NonNull Class<T> modelClass) {
            //noinspection TryWithIdenticalCatches
            try {
                return modelClass.newInstance();
            } catch (InstantiationException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
            } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
            }
        }
    }

 public static class AndroidViewModelFactory extends ViewModelProvider.NewInstanceFactory {

        private static AndroidViewModelFactory sInstance;

        /**
         * Retrieve a singleton instance of AndroidViewModelFactory.
         *
         * @param application an application to pass in {@link AndroidViewModel}
         * @return A valid {@link AndroidViewModelFactory}
         */
        @NonNull
        public static AndroidViewModelFactory getInstance(@NonNull Application application) {
            if (sInstance == null) {
                sInstance = new AndroidViewModelFactory(application);
            }
            return sInstance;
        }

        private Application mApplication;

        /**
         * Creates a {@code AndroidViewModelFactory}
         *
         * @param application an application to pass in {@link AndroidViewModel}
         */
        public AndroidViewModelFactory(@NonNull Application application) {
            mApplication = application;
        }

        @NonNull
        @Override
        public <T extends ViewModel> T create(@NonNull Class<T> modelClass) {
            if (AndroidViewModel.class.isAssignableFrom(modelClass)) {
                //noinspection TryWithIdenticalCatches
                try {
                    return modelClass.getConstructor(Application.class).newInstance(mApplication);
                } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
                } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
                } catch (InstantiationException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
                } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of " + modelClass, e);
                }
            }
            return super.create(modelClass);
        }
    }

AndroidX中的Fragment和FragmentActivity都实现了ViewModelStoreOwner接口。
完！
