This is the official PubNub Java SDK repository.
PubNub takes care of the infrastructure and APIs needed for the realtime communication layer of your application. Work on your app's logic and let PubNub handle sending and receiving data across the world in less than 100ms.
You will need the publish and subscribe keys to authenticate your app. Get your keys from the Admin Portal.
-
Integrate the Java SDK into your project:
-
for Maven, add the following dependency in your
pom.xml:<dependency> <groupId>com.pubnub</groupId> <artifactId>pubnub-gson</artifactId> <version>6.0.0</version> </dependency>
-
for Gradle, add the following dependency in your
gradle.build:compile group: 'com.pubnub', name: 'pubnub-gson', version: '5.2.3'
-
-
Configure your keys:
PNConfiguration pnConfiguration = new PNConfiguration(); pnConfiguration.setSubscribeKey("mySubscribeKey"); pnConfiguration.setPublishKey("myPublishKey"); pnConfiguration.setUuid("myUniqueUUID"); PubNub pubnub = new PubNub(pnConfiguration);
// SubscribeCallback is an Abstract Java class. It requires that you implement all Abstract methods of the parent class even if you don't need all the handler methods.
pubnub.addListener(new SubscribeCallback() {
// PubNub status
@Override
public void status(PubNub pubnub, PNStatus status) {
switch (status.getOperation()) {
// combine unsubscribe and subscribe handling for ease of use
case PNSubscribeOperation:
case PNUnsubscribeOperation:
// Note: subscribe statuses never have traditional errors,
// just categories to represent different issues or successes
// that occur as part of subscribe
switch (status.getCategory()) {
case PNConnectedCategory:
// No error or issue whatsoever.
case PNReconnectedCategory:
// Subscribe temporarily failed but reconnected.
// There is no longer any issue.
case PNDisconnectedCategory:
// No error in unsubscribing from everything.
case PNUnexpectedDisconnectCategory:
// Usually an issue with the internet connection.
// This is an error: handle appropriately.
case PNAccessDeniedCategory:
// PAM does not allow this client to subscribe to this
// channel and channel group configuration. This is
// another explicit error.
default:
// You can directly specify more errors by creating
// explicit cases for other error categories of
// `PNStatusCategory` such as `PNTimeoutCategory` or
// `PNMalformedFilterExpressionCategory` or
// `PNDecryptionErrorCategory`.
}
case PNHeartbeatOperation:
// Heartbeat operations can in fact have errors,
// so it's important to check first for an error.
// For more information on how to configure heartbeat notifications
// through the status PNObjectEventListener callback, refer to
// /docs/android-java/api-reference-configuration#configuration_basic_usage
if (status.isError()) {
// There was an error with the heartbeat operation, handle here
} else {
// heartbeat operation was successful
}
default: {
// Encountered unknown status type
}
}
