AsyncTaskNeo

Android AsyncTask using kotlin Coroutines
After AsyncTask deprecated on API 29, I was looking for something to replace it with. And i found this soloution using Kotlin Coroutins on StackOverflow. So i decided to publish it as a library. Maybe someone needs this.

Implement

Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
	repositories {
		...
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
	}
}

Then Add the dependency

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.alibardide5124:AsyncTaskNeo:LEAST_VERSION'
}

Usage

You can use this library by typing AsyncTaskNeo.executeAsyncTask<Output, Progress>() This function needs three input, and all of them are functions... onPreExecute, doInBackground, onProgressUpdate and onPostExecute.Just like the original AsyncTask. Here is an example of using:

AsyncTaskNeo.executeAsyncTask<Boolean, Int> (
    onPreExecute = {
        // Do something before heavy task
    },
    doInBackground = { publishProgress ->
        // Do some heavy works. Dont update ui here. Call publish progress for updating ui.
        true // Then return a Boolean (for example)
    },
    onProgressUpdate = {
        // Update ui here
        textview.text = it.toString()
    },
    onPostExecute = {
        // Do something on the end
    }
)

note: You will get inappropriate blocking method call warning. But don't mind it. There's no problem.

How was it? I hope you use it if you needs this.
