I am trying MVP pattern with TDD.
I have the following contract for Model, View And Presenter
Contract Class
interface GithubContract {
interface View {
void displayUsers(List<GurkhaComboDTO> userList);
}
interface Model {
void getUsersAndPromptPresenter(String userName, Presenter presenter);
}
interface Presenter {
void searchUsers(String userName);
void loadUsers(List<GithubUserDTO> userList);
}
}
I am trying to unit test the presenter logic like this :
Test Class
#RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class GithubPresenterWithMockitoTest {
#Mock
GithubContract.Model mockedModel;
#Test
public void shouldDisplayUsersToScreen() {
//given
final GithubContract.View view = new MockView(); // I have created the mock myself for the view this time.
final GithubContract.Presenter presenter = new GithubPresenter(view, mockedModel);
***********************************************************
// I do not know what to write here
****************************************************
presenter.searchUsers("");
Assert.assertEquals(true, ((MockView) (view)).enoughItems);
}
}
My MockView / VIEW class looks like this :
This is -> Mock class
class MockView implements GithubContract.View {
boolean enoughItems = false;
#Override
public void displayUsers(List<GurkhaComboDTO> userList) {
enoughItems = true;
}
}
My PRESENTER implementation of contract is like this ..
This is -> Real Class
class GithubPresenter implements GithubContract.Presenter {
private GithubContract.View view;
private GithubContract.Model model;
GithubPresenter(GithubContract.View view, GithubContract.Model model) {
this.view = view;
this.model = model;
}
#Override
public void searchUsers(String userName) {
model.getUsersAndPromptPresenter(userName, this);
}
#Override
public void loadUsers(List<GithubUserDTO> data) {
if (data != null) {
if (!data.isEmpty()) {
view.displayUsers(users);
}
}
}
I have the MODEL class Implementation like this :
This is -> Real Class
public class GithubModel implements Model {
#Inject
GithubAPIService apiService;
private Call<GithubUserListDTO> userListCall;
private Context context;
GithubModel(Context context) {
this.context = context;
apiService = Util.getAPIService(); // I am using dagger, retrofit and okhttp3 with GSON to get Objects directly from network call
}
#Override
public void getUsersAndPromptPresenter(final String userName, final GithubContract.Presenter presenter) {
userListCall = apiService.searchGitHubUsers(userName);
if(Util.isInternetConnected(context)) {
userListCall.enqueue(new Callback<GithubUserListDTO>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<GithubUserListDTO> call, Response<GithubUserListDTO> response) {
try {
presenter.loadUsers(response.body().getList());
} catch (Exception ignored) {
Util.log(ignored.getMessage());
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<GithubUserListDTO> call, Throwable t) {
}
});
}else {
Util.log("No Internet");
}
}
}
Now the real problem part:
I was successfully able to test the presenter with the mock of GithubContract.Model myself, But I want to use Mockito to mock the Model but as my getUsersAndPromptPresenter() method is abstract, returns void, takes parameters and calls back to presenter from an Inner class inside the method.
How can I mock my Model? If I need to bring some change in architecture in order to be able to make it testable, then please suggest it.
You shouldn't pass presenter to Model, Model and Presenter shouldn't be tightly coupled because it prevents model classes from being reusable. Instead provide succesfull and error callbacks(or a composite object that contains both these callbacks). And then you will be able to capture that callback with mockito and call the required one. Also it's very common today to use RxJava, it makes it easier to mock Model classes.
And here is a general good practice: you should avoid to use And/Or words in method names because it indicates that the method is doing more than one thing which is bad

I know it was asked before, but i am currently diving into testing and i have the struggle to unit test presenter in MVP pattern with Mockito
My code setup:
Item class
public class ItemJSON {
#SerializedName("title")
String textHolder;
#SerializedName("id")
int factNumber;
public ItemJSON(String factText, int factNumber) {
this.textHolder = factText;
this.factNumber = factNumber;
}
//getters and setters
}
Contractor:
public interface Contractor {
interface Presenter {
void getPosts();
}
interface View {
//parse data to recyclerview on Succesfull call.
void parseDataToRecyclerView(List<ItemJSON> listCall);
void onResponseFailure(Throwable throwable);
}
interface Interactor {
interface onGetPostsListener {
void onSuccessGetPostCall(List<ItemJSON> listCall);
void onFailure(Throwable t);
}
void getPosts(onGetPostsListener onGetPostsListener);
}
}
API class:
#GET("posts")
Call<List<ItemJSON>> getPost();
Interactor class:
public class InteractorImpl implements Contractor.Interactor{
#Override
public void getPosts(onGetPostsListener onGetPostsListener) {
// NetworkService responsible for seting up Retrofit2
NetworkService.getInstance().getJSONApi().getPost().enqueue(new Callback<List<ItemJSON>> () {
#Override
public void onResponse(#NonNull Call<List<ItemJSON>> call, #NonNull Response<List<ItemJSON>> response) {
Log.d("OPERATION #GET","CALLBACK SUCCESSFUL");
onGetPostsListener.onSuccessGetPostCall (response.body ());
}
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Call<List<ItemJSON>>call, #NonNull Throwable t) {
Log.d("OPERATION #GET","CALLBACK FAILURE");
onGetPostsListener.onFailure (t);
}
});
}
Presenter class:
public class PresenterImpl implements Contractor.Presenter, Contractor.Interactor.onGetPostsListener {
private final Contractor.View view;
private final Contractor.Interactor interactor;
public PresenterImpl (Contractor.View view,Contractor.Interactor interactor){
this.view = view;
this.interactor = interactor;
}
#Override
public void getPosts() {
interactor.getPosts (this);
}
#Override
public void onSuccessGetPostCall(List<ItemJSON> listCall) {
view.parseDataToRecyclerView (listCall);
}
}
So i try to ran some unit test on presenter, but they constanlty fail and i keep getting next error
Wanted but not invoked Actually, there were zero interactions with this mock
Unit test class:
#RunWith (MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class ApiMockTest{
#Mock
Contractor.View view;
private PresenterImpl presenter;
#Captor
ArgumentCaptor<List<ItemJSON>> jsons;
#Before
public void setUp() {
MockitoAnnotations.openMocks (this);
presenter = new PresenterImpl (view,new InteractorImpl ());
}
#Test
public void loadPost() {
presenter.getPosts ();
verify(view).parseDataToRecyclerView (jsons.capture ());
Assert.assertEquals (2, jsons.capture ().size ());
}
}
I try to understand what i am doing wrong and how to fix this issue, but as for now i am ran out of ideas. I will aprecciate any help.
Thanks in the adavance
UPD: in all cases in main activity presenter get called in onClick
Main Activity class:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements Contractor.View {
public Contractor.Presenter presenter;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
presenter = new PresenterImpl (this,new InteractorImpl ());
binding.getButton.setOnClickListener(view ->presenter.getPosts () );
...//code
#Override
public void parseDataToRecyclerView(List<ItemJSON> listCall) {
adapter.updateList(listCall); //diff call to put data into recyclerview adapter
}
}
}
I ran into this situation also, even using the mockk library. The problem is that your method is an interface method. You need to actually call it from a view which has implemented this interface.
This is my first time using MVVM architecture.I am also using LiveData. I simply retrieve data from server using Retrofit.So upon clicking a button in the View(MainActivity.class) I invoke the ViewModel class's method(handleRetrofitcall()) to take up the duty of Api calling from the Model class(Retrofit Handler.class).The Model class upon retrieving the data informs the ViewModel of the data(which is actually the size of items).I set the size to LiveData and try to listen for it.Unfortunately I couldn't.For detailed analysis please go through the code.
Model...
RetrofitHandler.class:
public class RetrofitHandler {
private ApiInterface apiInterface;
private SimpleViewModel viewModel;
public void getData(){
apiInterface= ApiClient.getClient().create(ApiInterface.class);
Call<Unknownapi> call=apiInterface.doGetListResources();
call.enqueue(new Callback<Unknownapi>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<Unknownapi> call, Response<Unknownapi> response) {
List<Unknownapi.Data> list;
Unknownapi unknownapi=response.body();
list=unknownapi.getData();
viewModel=new SimpleViewModel();
viewModel.postValue(list.size());
Log.e("Size",Integer.toString(list.size()));
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<Unknownapi> call, Throwable t) {
}
});
}
}
ViewModel....
SimpleViewModel.class:
public class SimpleViewModel extends ViewModel {
private RetrofitHandler retrofitHandler;
private int size;
private MutableLiveData<Integer> mutablesize=new MutableLiveData<>();
public SimpleViewModel() {
super();
}
#Override
protected void onCleared() {
super.onCleared();
}
public void handleRetrofitcall(){
retrofitHandler=new RetrofitHandler();
retrofitHandler.getData();
}
public void postValue(int size){
this.size=size;
mutablesize.postValue(this.size);
Log.e("lk","f");
}
public MutableLiveData<Integer> getObject() {
return mutablesize;
}
}
View.....
MainActivity.class:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private TextView status;
private SimpleViewModel viewModel;
private Observer<Integer> observer;
private MutableLiveData<Integer> mutableLiveData;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
status=findViewById(R.id.status);
viewModel=ViewModelProviders.of(MainActivity.this).get(SimpleViewModel.class);
observer=new Observer<Integer>() {
#Override
public void onChanged(#Nullable Integer integer) {
Log.e("lk","f");
status.setText(Integer.toString(integer));
}
};
viewModel.getObject().observe(MainActivity.this,observer);
findViewById(R.id.retrofit).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
viewModel.handleRetrofitcall();
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onDestroy() {
if (observer!=null){
viewModel.getObject().removeObserver(observer);
}
super.onDestroy();
}
}
You're creating a new ViewModel in the RetrofitHandler, so nothing is observing that viewmodel. Instead of having the RetrofitHandler rely on a ViewModel internally, it's probably safer to handle the Retrofit callback inself, and post data there.
public void handleRetrofitcall(){
retrofitHandler=new RetrofitHandler();
retrofitHandler.getData(new Callback<List<Unknownapi.Data>> {
// add actual callback implementation here
); // add a callback here, so that the data is available in the view model. Then post the results from here.
}
Edit: More clarification.
In the Activity, you're correctly creating a ViewModel and observing it (we'll call that ViewModel A). ViewModel A is then creating a RetrofitHandler and calling getData on that Retrofithandler. The issue is that RetrofitHandler is creating a new ViewModel in getData (which I'm going to call ViewModel B).
The issue is that the results are being posted to ViewModel B, which nothing is observing, so it seems like nothing is working.
Easy way to avoid this issue is to make sure that only an Activity/Fragment is relying on (and creating) ViewModels. Nothing else should know about the ViewModel.
Edit 2: Here's a simple implementation. I haven't tested it, but it should be more or less correct.
// shouldn't know anything about the view model or the view
public class RetrofitHandler {
private ApiInterface apiInterface;
// this should probably pass in a different type of callback that doesn't require retrofit
public void getData(Callback<Unknownapi> callback) {
// only create the apiInterface once
if (apiInterface == null) {
apiInterface = ApiClient.getClient().create(ApiInterface.class);
}
// allow the calling function to handle the result
apiInterface.doGetListResources().enqueue(callback);
}
}
// shouldn't know how retrofit handler parses the data
public class SimpleViewModel extends ViewModel {
private RetrofitHandler retrofitHandler = new RetrofitHandler();
// store data in mutableSize, not with a backing field.
private MutableLiveData<Integer> mutableSize = new MutableLiveData<>();
public void handleRetrofitCall() {
// handle the data parsing here
retrofitHandler.getData(new Callback<Unknownapi>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<Unknownapi> call, Response<Unknownapi> response) {
Unknownapi unknownapi = response.body();
int listSize = unknownapi.getData().size;
// set the value of the LiveData. Observers will be notified
mutableSize.setValue(listSize); // Note that we're using setValue because retrofit callbacks come back on the main thread.
Log.e("Size", Integer.toString(listSize));
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<Unknownapi> call, Throwable t) {
// error handling should be added here
}
});
}
// this should probably return an immutable copy of the object
public MutableLiveData<Integer> getObject() {
return mutableSize;
}
}
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private TextView status;
// initialize the view model only once
private SimpleViewModel viewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(MainActivity.this).get(SimpleViewModel.class);
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
status = findViewById(R.id.status);
// observe the view model's changes
viewModel.getObject().observe(this, new Observer<Integer>() {
#Override
public void onChanged(#Nullable Integer integer) {
// you should handle possibility of interger being null
Log.e("lk","f");
status.setText(Integer.toString(integer));
}
});
findViewById(R.id.retrofit).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// call the view model's function
viewModel.handleRetrofitCall();
}
});
}
}
Android Studio 3.0 Canary 8
I am trying to inject my MainActivity into my Adapter. However, my solution works ok, but I think its a code smell and not the right way to do it.
My adapter snippet looks like this the but I don't like about this is that I have to cast the Activity to MainActivity:
public class RecipeAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecipeListViewHolder> {
private List<Recipe> recipeList = Collections.emptyList();
private Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories;
private MainActivity mainActivity;
public RecipeAdapter(Activity activity, Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
this.recipeList = new ArrayList<>();
this.viewHolderFactories = viewHolderFactories;
this.mainActivity = (MainActivity)activity;
}
#Override
public RecipeListViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
/* Inject the viewholder */
final RecipeListViewHolder recipeListViewHolder = viewHolderFactories.get(Constants.RECIPE_LIST).createViewHolder(viewGroup);
recipeListViewHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
/* Using the MainActivity to call a callback listener */
mainActivity.onRecipeItemClick(getRecipe(recipeListViewHolder.getAdapterPosition()));
}
});
return recipeListViewHolder;
}
}
In my Module, I pass the Activity in the module's constructor and pass it to the Adapter.
#Module
public class RecipeListModule {
private Activity activity;
public RecipeListModule() {}
public RecipeListModule(Activity activity) {
this.activity = activity;
}
#RecipeListScope
#Provides
RecipeAdapter providesRecipeAdapter(Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
return new RecipeAdapter(activity, viewHolderFactories);
}
}
In My Application class I create the components and I am using a SubComponent for the adapter. Here I have to pass the Activity which I am not sure is a good idea.
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
applicationComponent = createApplicationComponent();
recipeListComponent = createRecipeListComponent();
}
public BusbyBakingComponent createApplicationComponent() {
return DaggerBusbyBakingComponent.builder()
.networkModule(new NetworkModule())
.androidModule(new AndroidModule(BusbyBakingApplication.this))
.exoPlayerModule(new ExoPlayerModule())
.build();
}
public RecipeListComponent createRecipeListComponent(Activity activity) {
return recipeListComponent = applicationComponent.add(new RecipeListModule(activity));
}
My Fragment I inject like this:
#Inject RecipeAdapter recipeAdapter;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
((BusbyBakingApplication)getActivity().getApplication())
.createRecipeListComponent(getActivity())
.inject(this);
}
Even though the above design works, I think it's a code smell as I have to cast the Activity to the MainActivity. The reason I use the Activity as I want to make this module more generic.
Just wondering if there is a better way
=============== UPDATE USING INTERFACE
Interface
public interface RecipeItemClickListener {
void onRecipeItemClick(Recipe recipe);
}
Implementation
public class RecipeItemClickListenerImp implements RecipeItemClickListener {
#Override
public void onRecipeItemClick(Recipe recipe, Context context) {
final Intent intent = Henson.with(context)
.gotoRecipeDetailActivity()
.recipe(recipe)
.build();
context.startActivity(intent);
}
}
In my module, I have the following providers
#Module
public class RecipeListModule {
#RecipeListScope
#Provides
RecipeItemClickListener providesRecipeItemClickListenerImp() {
return new RecipeItemClickListenerImp();
}
#RecipeListScope
#Provides
RecipeAdapter providesRecipeAdapter(RecipeItemClickListener recipeItemClickListener, Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
return new RecipeAdapter(recipeItemClickListener, viewHolderFactories);
}
}
Then I use it through constructor injection in the RecipeAdapter
public class RecipeAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecipeListViewHolder> {
private List<Recipe> recipeList = Collections.emptyList();
private Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories;
private RecipeItemClickListener recipeItemClickListener;
#Inject /* IS THIS NESSESSARY - AS IT WORKS WITH AND WITHOUT THE #Inject annotation */
public RecipeAdapter(RecipeItemClickListener recipeItemClickListener, Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
this.recipeList = new ArrayList<>();
this.viewHolderFactories = viewHolderFactories;
this.recipeItemClickListener = recipeItemClickListener;
}
#Override
public RecipeListViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(final ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
/* Inject the viewholder */
final RecipeListViewHolder recipeListViewHolder = viewHolderFactories.get(Constants.RECIPE_LIST).createViewHolder(viewGroup);
recipeListViewHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
recipeItemClickListener.onRecipeItemClick(getRecipe(recipeListViewHolder.getAdapterPosition()), viewGroup.getContext());
}
});
return recipeListViewHolder;
}
}
Just one question, is the #Inject annotation need for the constructor in the RecipeAdapter. As it works with or without the #Inject.
Do not pass Activities into Adapters - This is a really bad practice.
Inject only the fields you care about.
In your example: Pass an interface into the adapter to track the item click.
If you need a MainActivity then you should also provide it. Instead of Activity declare MainActivity for your module.
#Module
public class RecipeListModule {
private MainActivity activity;
public RecipeListModule(MainActivity activity) {
this.activity = activity;
}
}
And your Adapter should just request it (Constructor Injection for non Android Framework types!)
#RecipeListScope
class RecipeAdapter {
#Inject
RecipeAdapter(MainActivity activity,
Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
// ...
}
}
If you want your module to use Activity and not MainActivity then you will need to declare an interface as already mentioned. You adapter would then declare the interface as its dependency.
But in some module you will still have to bind that interface to your MainActivity and one module needs to know how to provide the dependency.
// in some abstract module
#Binds MyAdapterInterface(MainActivity activity) // bind the activity to the interface
Addressing the updated part of the question
Just one question, is the #Inject annotation need for the constructor in the RecipeAdapter. As it works with or without the #Inject.
It works without it because you're still not using constructor injection. You're still calling the constructor yourself in providesRecipeAdapter(). As a general rule of thumb—if you want to use Dagger properly—don't ever call new yourself. If you want to use new ask yourself if you could be using constructor injection instead.
The same module you show could be written as follows, making use of #Binds to bind an implementation to the interface, and actually using constructor injection to create the adapter (which is why we don't have to write any method for it! Less code to maintain, less errors, more readable classes)
As you see I don't need to use new myself—Dagger will create the objects for me.
public abstract class RecipeListModule {
#RecipeListScope
#Binds
RecipeItemClickListener providesRecipeClickListener(RecipeItemClickListenerImp listener);
}
Personally I would do the following trick
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String TAG = "__ACTIVITY__";
public static MainActivity get(Context context) {
// noinspection ResourceType
return (MainActivity)context.getSystemService(TAG);
}
#Override
protected Object getSystemService(String name) {
if(TAG.equals(name)) {
return this;
}
return super.getSystemService(name);
}
}
public class RecipeAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecipeListViewHolder> {
private List<Recipe> recipeList = Collections.emptyList();
private Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories;
public RecipeAdapter(Map<Integer, RecipeListViewHolderFactory> viewHolderFactories) {
this.recipeList = new ArrayList<>();
this.viewHolderFactories = viewHolderFactories;
}
#Override
public RecipeListViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
/* Inject the viewholder */
final RecipeListViewHolder recipeListViewHolder = viewHolderFactories.get(Constants.RECIPE_LIST).createViewHolder(viewGroup);
recipeListViewHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
MainActivity mainActivity = MainActivity.get(v.getContext());
if(recipeListViewHolder.getAdapterPosition() != -1) {
mainActivity.onRecipeItemClick(
getRecipe(recipeListViewHolder.getAdapterPosition()));
}
}
});
return recipeListViewHolder;
}
}
How can I make a proper separation between the Model layer and the View layer, when I have an operation in the Model that needs the current activity instance?
For example, I've integrated Linkedin SDK in my Android app (written in MVP).
In the auth process I have the following code snippet, when init() method's first argument type is Activity:
public void authWithLinkedin(final IAuth listener, Activity activity) {
LISessionManager.getInstance(MyApplication.getContext()).init(activity, buildScope(), new AuthListener() {
#Override
public void onAuthSuccess() {
listener.onSuccess();
}
#Override
public void onAuthError(LIAuthError error) {
listener.onError();
}
}, true);
}
If my Model layer should get to know Android framework components, what options do I have left to preserve the MVP architecture clean?
You can use software conventions / principles like
"dependency inversion principle"
"ports and adapters"
Your model layer should not know about Android if you can avoid it is the point.
Try something like this:
Model:
private final SocialLoginProvider socialLoginProvider;
public MyModel(SocialLoginProvider socialLoginProvider) {
this.socialLoginProvider = socialLoginProvider;
}
public void authWithLinkedin(final IAuth listener) {
socialLoginProvider.init(buildScope(), new SocialLoginProvider.Listener() {
#Override
public void onAuthSuccess() {
listener.onSuccess();
}
#Override
public void onAuthError() {
listener.onError();
}
}, true);
}
Factory:
public MyModel getModel(Context context) {
LISessionManager li = LISessionManager.getInstance(context);
SocialLoginProvider provider = new LinkedInSocialLoginProvider(context, li);
return new MyModel(provider);
}
Interface:
public interface SocialLoginProvider {
void init(Scope scope, Listener listener);
interface Listener {
void onAuthSuccess();
void onAuthError();
}
}
Adapter for SocialLoginProvider:
public class LinkedInSocialLoginProvider implements SocialLoginProvider {
private final Context context;
private final LISessionManager linkedInSessionManager;
public LinkedInSocialLoginProvider(Context context, LISessionManager linkedInSessionManager) {
this.context = context;
this.linkedInSessionManager = linkedInSessionManager;
}
#Override
public void init(Scope scope, Listener listener) {
linkedInSessionManager.init(context, scope,
new AuthListener() {
#Override
public void onAuthSuccess() {
listener.onSuccess();
}
#Override
public void onAuthError(LIAuthError error) {
listener.onError();
}
}, true);
}
}
Ideally it is ok to have Android Framework components in the Model layer. For example you will need the Context to store/access data locally using getDefaultSharedPreferences(Context) and/or to manage local DB using SQLiteOpenHelper.
The LISessionManager.getInstance(MyApplication.getContext()).init seems to be like a BroadcastReceiver as it is a type of listener that receives a particular result from an outside component. To handle such a case you can refer to this
So, a bit of context. I'm using Dagger2, Retrofit and RxAndroid and structuring my app using an MVP architecture.
For now, all I'm doing is making a network request to the API a retrieving some information as soon as my main activity starts. I'm trying to persist my presenters through configuration changes to avoid making a new http request every time I rotate my screen.

The constructor on this class (presenter) keeps calling itself as I rotate my Acitivity. I've annotated with #Singleton most of my classes. I don't know what else to do.
EDIT: Note that I haven't gotten into dagger SCOPES just yet, for now I don't care if this singleton presenter lives as long as my app. I'll fix that later.
It looks like you're recreating the Dagger component every time MainActivity.onCreate(Bundle) is called, and the activity is reinstantiated when you rotate the screen.
Like other scopes, #Singleton means there will be one instance of the object for the lifetime of the component, not for the lifetime of the JVM. You typically have to make sure there is only one instance of the #Singleton component yourself, usually by keeping it in a field in your Application.
You create a new dagger component every time here:
private void initializeDependencies() {
DaggerWeatherApiComponent.builder()
.build().inject(this);
}
A scoped dependency exists as ONE instance PER component.
If you create a new component, it will have its own scope, and it will create its own instance.
You should either invest in Mortar scopes to preserve your component, or you should have some sort of "cache" in your Application instance.
