package io.reactivex; import java.util.concurrent.*; import org.reactivestreams.Publisher; import io.reactivex.annotations.*; import io.reactivex.disposables.Disposable; import io.reactivex.exceptions.Exceptions; import io.reactivex.functions.*; import io.reactivex.internal.functions.*; import io.reactivex.internal.fuseable.*; import io.reactivex.internal.observers.*; import io.reactivex.internal.operators.completable.*; import io.reactivex.internal.operators.maybe.*; import io.reactivex.internal.operators.mixed.*; import io.reactivex.internal.operators.single.*; import io.reactivex.internal.util.ExceptionHelper; import io.reactivex.observers.TestObserver; import io.reactivex.plugins.RxJavaPlugins; import io.reactivex.schedulers.Schedulers;
The Completable class represents a deferred computation without any value but only indication for completion or exception.

Completable behaves similarly to Observable except that it can only emit either a completion or error signal (there is no onNext or onSuccess as with the other reactive types).

The Completable class implements the CompletableSource base interface and the default consumer type it interacts with is the CompletableObserver via the subscribe(CompletableObserver) method. The Completable operates with the following sequential protocol:


    onSubscribe (onError | onComplete)?

Note that as with the Observable protocol, onError and onComplete are mutually exclusive events.

Like Observable, a running Completable can be stopped through the Disposable instance provided to consumers through SingleObserver.onSubscribe.

Like an Observable, a Completable is lazy, can be either "hot" or "cold", synchronous or asynchronous. Completable instances returned by the methods of this class are cold and there is a standard hot implementation in the form of a subject: CompletableSubject.

The documentation for this class makes use of marble diagrams. The following legend explains these diagrams:

See Flowable or Observable for the implementation of the Reactive Pattern for a stream or vector of values.

Example:


Disposable d = Completable.complete()
   .delay(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS, Schedulers.io())
   .subscribeWith(new DisposableCompletableObserver() {
       @Override
       public void onStart() {
           System.out.println("Started");
       }
       @Override
       public void onError(Throwable error) {
           error.printStackTrace();
       }
       @Override
       public void onComplete() {
           System.out.println("Done!");
       }
   });
Thread.sleep(5000);
d.dispose();

Note that by design, subscriptions via subscribe(CompletableObserver) can't be disposed from the outside (hence the void return of the subscribe(CompletableObserver) method) and it is the responsibility of the implementor of the CompletableObserver to allow this to happen. RxJava supports such usage with the standard DisposableCompletableObserver instance. For convenience, the subscribeWith(CompletableObserver) method is provided as well to allow working with a CompletableObserver (or subclass) instance to be applied with in a fluent manner (such as in the example above).

Returns a Completable instance that subscribes to the given publisher, ignores all values and emits only the terminal event.

The Publisher must follow the Reactive Streams specification. Violating the specification may result in undefined behavior.

If possible, use create(CompletableOnSubscribe) to create a source-like Completable instead.

Note that even though Publisher appears to be a functional interface, it is not recommended to implement it through a lambda as the specification requires state management that is not achievable with a stateless lambda.

Backpressure:
The returned Completable honors the backpressure of the downstream consumer and expects the other Publisher to honor it as well.
Scheduler:
fromPublisher does not operate by default on a particular Scheduler.
Params:
  • publisher – the Publisher instance to subscribe to, not null

Returns a Completable instance that subscribes to all sources at once and completes only when all source Completables complete or one of them emits an error.

Scheduler:
mergeArray does not operate by default on a particular Scheduler.
Error handling:
If any of the source CompletableSources signal a Throwable via onError, the resulting Completable terminates with that Throwable and all other source CompletableSources are disposed. If more than one CompletableSource signals an error, the resulting Completable may terminate with the first one's error or, depending on the concurrency of the sources, may terminate with a CompositeException containing two or more of the various error signals.

This method requires advanced knowledge about building operators, please consider other standard composition methods first; Returns a Completable which, when subscribed to, invokes the apply(CompletableObserver) method of the provided CompletableOperator for each individual downstream Completable and allows the insertion of a custom operator by accessing the downstream's CompletableObserver during this subscription phase and providing a new CompletableObserver, containing the custom operator's intended business logic, that will be used in the subscription process going further upstream.

Generally, such a new CompletableObserver will wrap the downstream's CompletableObserver and forwards the onError and onComplete events from the upstream directly or according to the emission pattern the custom operator's business logic requires. In addition, such operator can intercept the flow control calls of dispose and isDisposed that would have traveled upstream and perform additional actions depending on the same business logic requirements.

Example:


// Step 1: Create the consumer type that will be returned by the CompletableOperator.apply():
public final class CustomCompletableObserver implements CompletableObserver, Disposable {
    // The downstream's CompletableObserver that will receive the onXXX events
    final CompletableObserver downstream;
    // The connection to the upstream source that will call this class' onXXX methods
    Disposable upstream;
    // The constructor takes the downstream subscriber and usually any other parameters
    public CustomCompletableObserver(CompletableObserver downstream) {
        this.downstream = downstream;
    }
    // In the subscription phase, the upstream sends a Disposable to this class
    // and subsequently this class has to send a Disposable to the downstream.
    // Note that relaying the upstream's Disposable directly is not allowed in RxJava
    @Override
    public void onSubscribe(Disposable d) {
        if (upstream != null) {
            d.dispose();
        } else {
            upstream = d;
            downstream.onSubscribe(this);
        }
    }
    // Some operators may handle the upstream's error while others
    // could just forward it to the downstream.
    @Override
    public void onError(Throwable throwable) {
        downstream.onError(throwable);
    }
    // When the upstream completes, usually the downstream should complete as well.
    // In completable, this could also mean doing some side-effects
    @Override
    public void onComplete() {
        System.out.println("Sequence completed");
        downstream.onComplete();
    }
    // Some operators may use their own resources which should be cleaned up if
    // the downstream disposes the flow before it completed. Operators without
    // resources can simply forward the dispose to the upstream.
    // In some cases, a disposed flag may be set by this method so that other parts
    // of this class may detect the dispose and stop sending events
    // to the downstream.
    @Override
    public void dispose() {
        upstream.dispose();
    }
    // Some operators may simply forward the call to the upstream while others
    // can return the disposed flag set in dispose().
    @Override
    public boolean isDisposed() {
        return upstream.isDisposed();
    }
}
// Step 2: Create a class that implements the CompletableOperator interface and
//         returns the custom consumer type from above in its apply() method.
//         Such class may define additional parameters to be submitted to
//         the custom consumer type.
final class CustomCompletableOperator implements CompletableOperator {
    @Override
    public CompletableObserver apply(CompletableObserver upstream) {
        return new CustomCompletableObserver(upstream);
    }
}
// Step 3: Apply the custom operator via lift() in a flow by creating an instance of it
//         or reusing an existing one.
Completable.complete()
.lift(new CustomCompletableOperator())
.test()
.assertResult();

Creating custom operators can be complicated and it is recommended one consults the RxJava wiki: Writing operators page about the tools, requirements, rules, considerations and pitfalls of implementing them.

Note that implementing custom operators via this lift() method adds slightly more overhead by requiring an additional allocation and indirection per assembled flows. Instead, extending the abstract Completable class and creating a CompletableTransformer with it is recommended.

Note also that it is not possible to stop the subscription phase in lift() as the apply() method requires a non-null CompletableObserver instance to be returned, which is then unconditionally subscribed to the upstream Completable. For example, if the operator decided there is no reason to subscribe to the upstream source because of some optimization possibility or a failure to prepare the operator, it still has to return a CompletableObserver that should immediately dispose the upstream's Disposable in its onSubscribe method. Again, using a CompletableTransformer and extending the Completable is a better option as subscribeActual can decide to not subscribe to its upstream after all.

Scheduler:
lift does not operate by default on a particular Scheduler, however, the CompletableOperator may use a Scheduler to support its own asynchronous behavior.
Params:
  • onLift – the CompletableOperator that receives the downstream's CompletableObserver and should return a CompletableObserver with custom behavior to be used as the consumer for the current Completable.

Returns a Completable which given a Publisher and when this Completable emits an error, delivers that error through a Flowable and the Publisher should signal a value indicating a retry in response or a terminal event indicating a termination.

Note that the inner Publisher returned by the handler function should signal either onNext, onError or onComplete in response to the received Throwable to indicate the operator should retry or terminate. If the upstream to the operator is asynchronous, signalling onNext followed by onComplete immediately may result in the sequence to be completed immediately. Similarly, if this inner Publisher signals onError or onComplete while the upstream is active, the sequence is terminated with the same signal immediately.

The following example demonstrates how to retry an asynchronous source with a delay:


Completable.timer(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .doOnSubscribe(s -> System.out.println("subscribing"))
    .doOnComplete(() -> { throw new RuntimeException(); })
    .retryWhen(errors -> {
        AtomicInteger counter = new AtomicInteger();
        return errors
                  .takeWhile(e -> counter.getAndIncrement() != 3)
                  .flatMap(e -> {
                      System.out.println("delay retry by " + counter.get() + " second(s)");
                      return Flowable.timer(counter.get(), TimeUnit.SECONDS);
