Thunder

Android network monitoring service library ⚡

Description

This service monitors network state all the time. So it can consume a little bit more memory.

I was using social apps and Google apps that I noticed these apps monitors network always on use. I was wondering if such a network monitoring service exists but I couldn't find one. So I wrote one by myself.

Example

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    
    Thunder.with(this).listen(NetworkListener);
}

@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();

    Thunder.with(this).start();
}

@Override
protected void onStop() {
    super.onStop();

    Thunder.with(this).stop();
}

@Override
public void onNetworkAvailable() {
    // TODO: do something when network is availabe such as resuming a download process
}

@Override
public void onNetworkUnavailable() {
    // TODO: do something when network is unavailabe such as pausing a download process
}

Usage

To use this library in your project, copy the library folder ('thunder') and import it from your project.

In app/build.gradle

implementation project(':thunder')

minSdkVersion = '19'

Screenshot

In this example, I used Snackbar to show that the network is unavailable.
