esoxjem/MovieGuide

MovieGuide is an Android application that allows users to browse, search, and sort movies, reviews, and videos. It features a modernized architecture using MVP, Dagger 2, and RxJava 2 to manage data flow and state. The app persists user favorites in a local database and supports UI testing via Espresso.

The project underwent a significant modernization, renaming to MovieGuide and migrating to AndroidX, RxJava2, and Dagger 2. The codebase was refactored to use an MVP architecture for the details screen and introduced structured data models with Moshi for JSON parsing. Build infrastructure was updated with Gradle 5.4.1 and new dependencies were integrated to support enhanced listing features like sorting and search.

The project underwent a significant architectural modernization, migrating the network layer to Retrofit 2, RxJava 2, and Moshi, while also replacing the favorites storage with Realm. Concurrently, extensive test coverage was added, including UI tests for the movies listing flow and unit tests for presenters and utilities.

The app now includes new utility classes in the 'util' package to support UI interactions and testing. A SoftKeyboardUtils class was added to programmatically hide the soft keyboard, improving the user experience by managing input focus. For testing purposes, EspressoIdlingResource and SimpleCountingIdlingResource were introduced to handle asynchronous operations during automated UI tests, ensuring tests wait for background tasks to complete. Additionally, RxUtils provides a helper for managing RxJava2 disposable subscriptions, preventing memory leaks by safely disposing of them.

The app now includes structured data models for movies, reviews, and videos, each implementing Parcelable for Android intent/fragment passing. These models use Moshi annotations (e.g., @Json) to map JSON fields, replacing the previous GSON-based parsing. The base application class initializes Dagger 2 components (AppComponent, DetailsComponent, ListingComponent) to provide singleton Context, Resources, and Realm instances, establishing a new dependency injection layer for the app's core data structures.

The project has been renamed from 'MoviesGuide' to 'MovieGuide' in the README. The README was significantly expanded to include a 'Not Actively Maintained' notice, a build status badge, and detailed instructions for building the app, including adding a TMDB API key to local.properties. Additionally, new files were added: a Code of Conduct, an MIT License, and Gradle wrapper scripts (gradlew, gradlew.bat) to support building the Android app. The .gitignore was updated to exclude Android Studio and IDE-specific files.

A new ProGuard configuration file (proguard-rules.pro) was added to the app module, containing rules to preserve Butter Knife annotations and classes during code shrinking and obfuscation. This ensures that the Butter Knife library functions correctly in release builds by preventing the removal or renaming of essential components.

The app now uses Realm to store and retrieve favorite movies, replacing the previous storage mechanism. This change introduces a new data layer (FavoritesStore, FavoritesInteractor, and MovieRealmObject) to manage favorite states, ensuring that user favorites are persisted across sessions using the Realm database.

The movie details screen has been refactored into an MVP (Model-View-Presenter) architecture. A new DetailsComponent and DetailsModule provide dependency injection for the MovieDetailsPresenter, which now manages the logic for displaying movie details, trailers, reviews, and favorite status. The MovieDetailsFragment acts as the View, delegating data loading and state updates to the presenter, while the interactor handles data fetching. This change improves separation of concerns and testability of the details screen.

The app's network implementation has been rewritten to use Retrofit 2 with RxJava 2 for asynchronous request handling and Moshi for JSON parsing, replacing the previous GSON-based setup. The new NetworkModule configures an OkHttpClient with a request interceptor that automatically appends the TMDB API key to all requests, and enables HTTP body logging only in debug builds. The TmdbWebService interface defines endpoints for discovering popular, highest-rated, and newest movies, as well as fetching trailers and reviews.

The movie listing screen has been refactored to support sorting, search, and pagination. Users can now sort the movie list by Most Popular, Highest Rated, Newest, or Favorites. A search bar in the toolbar filters the list with a 500ms debounce delay. The listing also supports pagination, loading more movies as the user scrolls. The UI adapts to tablet layouts, displaying a two-pane view when possible.

Add Android UI tests for the movies listing flow; Added unit tests for MovieDetailsPresenter; Added unit tests for MoviesListingPresenterImpl; Added unit tests for the sorting dialog presenter.

The project introduces a new Android application structure, configuring the build system with Gradle 3.5.1 and the Realm plugin 5.3.0. The app targets API 29 and supports Java 8, utilizing AndroidX libraries (including Material, Palette, and RecyclerView) and enabling Jetifier. Key dependencies include RxJava2 for asynchronous operations, Retrofit 2 with Moshi for networking, Dagger 2 for dependency injection, and Espresso for testing. The configuration also excludes specific META-INF files to resolve duplicate file issues.
