Exception handling in rxjava

问题

I am trying to get accustomed to rxjava and I am trying to call the below QuoteReader in an Observable. I am not sure how to handle the exception thrown,

public class QuoteReader {
   public Map<String, Object> getQuote() throws IOException{
       OkHttpClient okHttpClient = new OkHttpClient();
       Request request = new Request.Builder().url("http://quotes.rest/qod.json").build();
       Gson gson = new Gson();
       Map<String, Object> responseMap = null;

       try(Response response = okHttpClient.newCall(request).execute()) {
         responseMap = gson.fromJson(response.body().string(), Map.class);
         System.out.println("response map : "+responseMap);
       } catch(IOException ioe) {
         ioe.printStackTrace();
         throw ioe;
       } finally {
         okHttpClient = null;
         request = null;
       }
    return responseMap;
  }
}

The following is the rx code I am trying to write,

rx.Observable.just(new QuoteReader().getQuote()) //compile time error saying unhandled exception
              .subscribe(System.out::println);

How should I update the code to handle the exception. Thanks!

回答1:

Use fromCallable that allows your method to throw (plus, it gets evaluated lazily and not before you even get into the Observable world):

rx.Observable.fromCallable(() -> new QuoteReader().getQuote())
          .subscribe(System.out::println, Throwable::printStackTrace);

There is another factory method for an Observable, which is called create. This gives you an Observer as input of a lambda expression. Observer is a kind of callback object with three methods: onNext(T t), onError(Throwable e) and onCompleted. I read you're new to RxJava, so here is a little extra as a sidenote: the Rx contract specifies that an Observer can receive zero or more onNext calls, followed by maybe either an onError or onCompleted call. In regular expression for this looks like: onNext* (onError|onCompleted)?.

Now that you know this, you can implement your operation using Observable.create:

Observable.create(observer -> {
  try {
    observer.onNext(new QuoteReader.getQuote());
    observer.onCompleted();
  }
  catch (Throwable e) {
    observer.onError(e);
  }
}

Notice that this code doesn't do anything until you subscribe to this Observable as you already did in your question!

Observable pipeline does not allow you throw Exceptions. You must use runtimeExceptions. So changing your code it should looks like.

     try(Response response = okHttpClient.newCall(request).execute()) {
        responseMap = gson.fromJson(response.body().string(), Map.class);
        System.out.println("response map : "+responseMap);
   } catch(IOException ioe) {
     ioe.printStackTrace();
     new RuntimeException(ioe);

You can see a practical example here https://github.com/politrons/reactive/blob/master/src/test/java/rx/observables/errors/ObservableExceptions.java
