How to make a new call with Retrofit2?












0















I am currently working with Retrofit2 and I was wondering the best way to make a new call.



In my current app, I have a Service that implements the singleton pattern :



public final class Services
{

private static volatile Services instance;

public static Services getInstance()
{
if (instance == null)
{
synchronized (Services.class)
{
if (instance == null)
{
instance = new Services();
}
}
}

return instance;
}

private final IServices myServices;

public Services()
{
final Retrofit.Builder retrofitBuilder = new Retrofit.Builder();
retrofitBuilder.client(new OkHttpClient.Builder().build());

myServices = retrofitBuilder.build().create(IServices.class);
}

public void myCall(@NonNull String param)
{
//...
}

}


Into the myCall method, I do the call, for example : myServices.aGetRequest(param).execute();



Now, I would like, for example, to modify the request (add some headers for example) but with no interceptor and make the call. What is the best way ?



From the IServices interface, I do not have access to the okhttp3.Call.Factory in order to call the newCall. But I have this access from the Retrofit class with the callFactory method.



Is it a good pattern to keep a reference to the IServices and to the Retrofit classes into the Services class in order to do something like that into the myCall method ?



public void myCall(@NonNull String param)
{
retrofit.callFactory().newCall(myServices.aGetRequest(param).request().newBuilder().addHeader("MY_HEADER_KEY", "MY_HEADER_VALUE").build()).execute();
}

  • Use an interceptor for adding the headers. It's the way to go!
