All event names changed to message in Android ParticleEventHandler

wwy · February 21, 2016, 9:17pm

Hi,
My firmware creates 2 events named resultEvent and statusEvent. I can see them in Dashboard.

However in the onEvent function, the eventName string is always “message”. Has anyone seen this?

Thanks.

eventHandler = new ParticleEventHandler() {
    @Override
    public void onEvent(String eventName, ParticleEvent particleEvent) {
        if (eventName == "statusEvent") {
            updateTextViews(particleEvent.dataPayload);
        }
        else if (eventName == "resultEvent")
        {
            Toaster.l(getActivity(),"resultEvent Occurred");
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onEventError(Exception e) {
        Toaster.l(getActivity(),"Event Error Occurred : " + e.getMessage());
    }
};

Is the string you are looking for not just another field of particleEvent rather than of the Android event?

The eventName string is not contained within ParticleEvent unfortunately. I’m not sure why it isn’t - it would be a good idea, in my mind. If it was, I could simply extract it and ignore the String parameter.

This is the ParticleEvent declaration:

github.com

particle-iot/spark-sdk-android/blob/master/cloudsdk/src/main/java/io/particle/android/sdk/cloud/ParticleEvent.java

package io.particle.android.sdk.cloud;

import com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName;

import java.util.Date;

import javax.annotation.ParametersAreNonnullByDefault;


// Normally it's bad form to use network data models as API data models, but considering that
// for the moment, they'd be a 1:1 mapping, we'll just reuse this data model class.  If the
// network API changes, then we can write new classes for the network API models, without
// impacting the public API of the SDK.
@ParametersAreNonnullByDefault
public class ParticleEvent {

    @SerializedName("coreid")
    public final String deviceId;

    @SerializedName("data")

Modifying the AuthenticatedSseEventStream.java file looks messy.
The best solution is probably to include the eventName in the data. i.e. add an eventName String to the ParticleEvent class
