For developers migrating from v3.x.x, there will be some breaking changes in terms of SDK implementation. In the previous versions, you've to define the common variables everytime while making API calls. But, from this release onwards, you can initialize them once and they'll be automatically reflected in every single API call you make. It can be done using LoginRadiusSDK.Initialize class.
Also, you'll find some major restructuring while using APIs. For example, till v3.x.x, for getting a user profile, you've to use the code similar to the following:
lrAccessToken token = new lrAccessToken();
token.access_token = "<your-access-token>";
token.apikey="<your-api-key>";
UserProfileAPI api = new UserProfileAPI();
api.getResponse(token, new AsyncHandler <LoginRadiusUltimateUserProfile> () {
@Override
public void onSuccess(LoginRadiusUltimateUserProfile userProfile) {
Toast.makeText(context,"First Name: "+userProfile.FirstName+" Last Name:"+userProfile.LastName,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable error, String errorcode) {
Toast.makeText(context,error.getMessage(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
From v4.x.x, for fetching user profile, you've to use code similar to the following:
QueryParams params = new QueryParams();
params.setAccess_token(access_token);
AuthenticationAPI api = new AuthenticationAPI();
api.readAllUserProfile(params, new AsyncHandler < LoginRadiusUltimateUserProfile > () {
@Override
public void onSuccess(LoginRadiusUltimateUserProfile userProfile) {
Toast.makeText(context, "First Name: " + userProfile.FirstName + " Last Name:" + userProfile.LastName, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable error, String errorcode) {
Toast.makeText(context, error.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
