本着饮水思源的想法，面对ReactiveCocoa的强大功能，按捺不住心中的好奇心，于是走进其源码之中，一探ReactiveCocoa的魅力所在。虽然，耳闻其强大功能的核心是：信号，但一直不知道这个信号是如何产生、如何传递，又是如何被处理的。曾经以为信号传递是通知，但是真正读了源码后，才发现之前的想法有多不妥，而人家的实现又是多巧妙。
本文主要从ReactiveCocoa的主要类入手，通过剖析其整个应用过程中，信号的生命周期来领略其编程之美。
一、RACSignal
1. 应用
// 1.创建信号
RACSignal *siganl = [RACSignal createSignal:^RACDisposable *(id subscriber) {
// 注：block在此仅仅是个参数，未被调用，
//当有订阅者订阅信号时会调用block。
// 2.发送信号
[subscriber sendNext:@1];
// 如果不在发送数据，最好发送信号完成，内部会自动调用[RACDisposable disposable]取消订阅信号。
return nil;
}];
// 3.订阅信号,才会激活信号.
[siganl subscribeNext:^(id x) {
// block调用时刻：每当有信号发出数据，就会调用block.
NSLog(@"接收到数据:%@",x);
}];
2.源码实现
- 创建信号
+(RACSignal *)createSignal:(RACDisposable * (^)(id<RACSubscriber> subscriber))didSubscribe;
// RACDynamicSignal.m
+ (RACSignal *)createSignal:(RACDisposable * (^)(id subscriber))didSubscribe {
//创建了一个RACDynamicSignal类的信号
RACDynamicSignal *signal = [[self alloc] init];
//将代码块保存到信号里面（但此时仅仅是保存，没有调用），所以信号还是冷信号
signal->_didSubscribe = [didSubscribe copy];
return [signal setNameWithFormat:@"+createSignal:"];
}
- 订阅信号
(RACDisposable *)subscribeNext:(void (^ )(id x))nextBlock；
// RACSignal.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribeNext:(void (^)(id x))nextBlock {
NSCParameterAssert(nextBlock != NULL);
// 内部创建了RACSubscriber（订阅者）类的实例对象o，并且将nextBlock保存到o中，在返回值出执行o,实际也是执行了nextBlock。
RACSubscriber *o = [RACSubscriber subscriberWithNext:nextBlock error:NULL completed:NULL];
return [self subscribe:o];
}
// RACSubscriber.m
+ (instancetype)subscriberWithNext:(void (^)(id x))next error:(void (^)(NSError *error))error completed:(void (^)(void))completed {
RACSubscriber *subscriber = [[self alloc] init];
// 将block保存到subscriber中
subscriber->_next = [next copy];
subscriber->_error = [error copy];
subscriber->_completed = [completed copy];
return subscriber;
}
// RACDynamicSignal.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribe:(id<RACSubscriber>)subscriber {
NSCParameterAssert(subscriber != nil);
RACCompoundDisposable *disposable = [RACCompoundDisposable compoundDisposable];
subscriber = [[RACPassthroughSubscriber alloc] initWithSubscriber:subscriber signal:self disposable:disposable];
//判断有无self.didSubscribe,有则执行该self.didSubscribe，意味着将订阅者subscriber发送过去
if (self.didSubscribe != NULL) {
RACDisposable *schedulingDisposable = [RACScheduler.subscriptionScheduler schedule:^{
RACDisposable *innerDisposable = self.didSubscribe(subscriber);
[disposable addDisposable:innerDisposable];
}];
[disposable addDisposable:schedulingDisposable];
}
return disposable;
}
// RACPassthroughSubscriber.m
- (instancetype)initWithSubscriber:(id)subscriber signal:(RACSignal *)signal disposable:(RACCompoundDisposable *)disposable {
NSCParameterAssert(subscriber != nil);
self = [super init];
if (self == nil) return nil;
// 保存订阅者，信号，处理操作
_innerSubscriber = subscriber;
_signal = signal;
_disposable = disposable;
[self.innerSubscriber didSubscribeWithDisposable:self.disposable];
return self;
}
- 发送信号
[subscriber sendNext:@1]
// RACPassthroughSubscriber.m
- (void)sendNext:(id)value {
if (self.disposable.disposed) return;
if (RACSIGNAL_NEXT_ENABLED()) {
RACSIGNAL_NEXT(cleanedSignalDescription(self.signal), cleanedDTraceString(self.innerSubscriber.description), cleanedDTraceString([value description]));
}
[self.innerSubscriber sendNext:value];
}
// RACSubscriber.m
- (void)sendNext:(id)value {
@synchronized (self) {
void (^nextBlock)(id) = [self.next copy];
if (nextBlock == nil) return;
// 名为next的block是返回值为void，参数为id类型的value，在sendNext:内部，将next复制给nextBlock，执行该方法后，subscribeNext:的block参数才会被调用。
nextBlock(value);
}
}
3.流程图
RACSignal
4.总结
先创建信号，然后订阅信号，最后执行didSubscribe内部的方法，顺序是不能变的
RACSignal底层实现
* 1.创建信号，首先把didSubscribe保存到信号中，还不会触发。
* 2.当信号被订阅，也就是调用signal的subscribeNext:nextBlock
2.1 subscribeNext内部会创建订阅者subscriber，并且把nextBlock保存到subscriber中。
2.2 subscribeNext内部会调用siganl的didSubscribe
* 3.siganl的didSubscribe中调用[subscriber sendNext:@1];
3.1 sendNext底层其实就是执行subscriber的nextBlock
二、RACSubject
1. 应用
// 创建信号
RACSubject *subject = [RACSubject subject];
// 订阅
[subject subscribeNext:^(id x) {
NSLog(@"第一个订阅者：%@", x);
}];
// 发送信号
[subject sendNext:@"1"];
2.源码实现
- 创建信号
// RACSubject.m
+ (instancetype)subject {
return [[self alloc] init];
}
- (id)init {
self = [super init];
if (self == nil) return nil;
_disposable = [RACCompoundDisposable compoundDisposable];
_subscribers = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:1];
return self;
}
- 订阅信号
RACSubject订阅信号的实质就是将内部创建的订阅者保存在订阅者数组self.subscribers中，仅此而已。订阅者对象有一个名为nextBlock的block参数
// RACSignal.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribeNext:(void (^)(id x))nextBlock {
NSCParameterAssert(nextBlock != NULL);
RACSubscriber *o = [RACSubscriber subscriberWithNext:nextBlock error:NULL completed:NULL];
return [self subscribe:o];
}
// RACSubscriber.m
+ (instancetype)subscriberWithNext:(void (^)(id x))next error:(void (^)(NSError *error))error completed:(void (^)(void))completed {
RACSubscriber *subscriber = [[self alloc] init];
subscriber->_next = [next copy];
subscriber->_error = [error copy];
subscriber->_completed = [completed copy];
return subscriber;
}
// RACSubject.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribe:(id<RACSubscriber>)subscriber {
NSCParameterAssert(subscriber != nil);
RACCompoundDisposable *disposable = [RACCompoundDisposable compoundDisposable];
subscriber = [[RACPassthroughSubscriber alloc] initWithSubscriber:subscriber signal:self disposable:disposable];
NSMutableArray *subscribers = self.subscribers;
@synchronized (subscribers) {
[subscribers addObject:subscriber];
}
return [RACDisposable disposableWithBlock:^{
@synchronized (subscribers) {
// Since newer subscribers are generally shorter-lived, search
// starting from the end of the list.
NSUInteger index = [subscribers indexOfObjectWithOptions:NSEnumerationReverse passingTest:^ BOOL (id<RACSubscriber> obj, NSUInteger index, BOOL *stop) {
return obj == subscriber;
}];
if (index != NSNotFound) [subscribers removeObjectAtIndex:index];
}
}];
}
- 发送信号
底层实现：
1. 先遍历订阅者数组中的订阅者;
2. 后执行订阅者中的nextBlock;
3. 最后让订阅者发送信号
// RACSubject.m
- (void)sendNext:(id)value {
[self enumerateSubscribersUsingBlock:^(id subscriber) {
[subscriber sendNext:value];
}];
}
- (void)enumerateSubscribersUsingBlock:(void (^)(id subscriber))block {
NSArray *subscribers;
@synchronized (self.subscribers) {
subscribers = [self.subscribers copy];
}
for (id subscriber in subscribers) {
block(subscriber);
}
}
3.流程图
RACSubject
4.总结
RACSubscriber:表示订阅者的意思，用于发送信号，这是一个协议，不是一个类，只要遵守这个协议，并且实现方法才能成为订阅者。通过create创建的信号，都有一个订阅者，帮助他发送数据。
RACDisposable:用于取消订阅或者清理资源，当信号发送完成或者发送错误的时候，就会自动触发它。
RACSubject的底层与RACSignal不一样：
- 调用subscribeNext订阅信号，只是把订阅者保存起来，并且订阅者的nextBlock已经赋值了
- 调用sendNext发送信号，遍历刚刚保存的所有订阅者，一个一个调用订阅者的nextBlock
- 由于本质是将订阅者保存到数组中，所以可以有多个订阅者订阅信息。
必须先订阅，后发送信息。订阅信号就是创建订阅者的过程，如果不先订阅，数组中就没有订阅者对象，那就通过订阅者发送消息
三、RACReplaySubject
1.应用
RACReplaySubject即可以先订阅后发送信号，也可以反过来
RACReplaySubject *subject = [RACReplaySubject subject];
// 第一次订阅
[subject subscribeNext:^(id x) {
NSLog(@"%@", x);
}];
// 发送信号
[subject sendNext:@"1"];
// 第一次订阅
[subject subscribeNext:^(id x) {
NSLog(@"%@", x);
}];
2.源码实现
- 创建信号
// RACSubject.m
+ (instancetype)subject {
return [[self alloc] init];
}
// RACReplaySubject.m
- (instancetype)init {
return [self initWithCapacity:RACReplaySubjectUnlimitedCapacity];
}
- (instancetype)initWithCapacity:(NSUInteger)capacity {
self = [super init];
if (self == nil) return nil;
_capacity = capacity;
// 会用这个数组保存值value
_valuesReceived = (capacity == RACReplaySubjectUnlimitedCapacity ? [NSMutableArray array] : [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:capacity]);
return self;
}
- 订阅信号
// RACSignal.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribeNext:(void (^)(id x))nextBlock {
NSCParameterAssert(nextBlock != NULL);
RACSubscriber *o = [RACSubscriber subscriberWithNext:nextBlock error:NULL completed:NULL];
return [self subscribe:o];
}
// RACReplaySubject.m
- (RACDisposable *)subscribe:(id<RACSubscriber>)subscriber {
RACCompoundDisposable *compoundDisposable = [RACCompoundDisposable compoundDisposable];
RACDisposable *schedulingDisposable = [RACScheduler.subscriptionScheduler schedule:^{
@synchronized (self) {
for (id value in self.valuesReceived) {
if (compoundDisposable.disposed) return;
[subscriber sendNext:(value == RACTupleNil.tupleNil ? nil : value)];
}
if (compoundDisposable.disposed) return;
if (self.hasCompleted) {
[subscriber sendCompleted];
} else if (self.hasError) {
[subscriber sendError:self.error];
} else {
RACDisposable *subscriptionDisposable = [super subscribe:subscriber];
[compoundDisposable addDisposable:subscriptionDisposable];
}
}
}];
[compoundDisposable addDisposable:schedulingDisposable];
return compoundDisposable;
}
- 发送信号
// RACReplaySubject.m
- (void)sendNext:(id)value {
@synchronized (self) {
//重点：发送信号的时候，会先将值value保存到数组中
[self.valuesReceived addObject:value ?: RACTupleNil.tupleNil];
//调用父类发送（先遍历订阅者，然后发送值value）
[super sendNext:value];
if (self.capacity != RACReplaySubjectUnlimitedCapacity && self.valuesReceived.count > self.capacity) {
[self.valuesReceived removeObjectsInRange:NSMakeRange(0, self.valuesReceived.count - self.capacity)];
}
}
}
3.原理图
RACReplaySubject
4.总结
RACReplaySubject是RACSubject的子类
由于每次发送信号时，会先保存nextBlock，然后调用父类的sendNext方法，遍历订阅者，执行信号；而每次订阅信号时，会从valuesReceived中取值，然后调用sendNext方法，遍历订阅者，执行信号。所以，订阅和发送没有先后顺序。
