Module 5: Connect to the internet

Connecting to the internet is a fundamental aspect of modern application development,
enabling communication between devices and servers. Here's a concise overview of key
concepts when establishing internet connections in software:
Network Permission: Declare the necessary network permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml
file. This is crucial for the app to access the internet. You typically include the <uses-
permission> element with appropriate permissions like <uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>. This permission allows the app to create
network sockets for sending and receiving data over the internet.
Network Requests: Use either HTTP or HTTPS protocols to initiate network requests from
your application to remote servers. This is typically done using the following methods:
• HttpURLConnection: This is a basic API provided by Java for sending HTTP requests
and receiving responses. It's relatively low-level but offers fine-grained control over the
request and response process.
• HttpClient: Historically, HttpClient was a commonly used library for sending HTTP
requests. However, it has been deprecated in recent Android versions in favor of newer
and more efficient APIs like HttpURLConnection or third-party libraries like OkHttp.
Third-party Libraries: Consider using third-party libraries like OkHttp, Retrofit, or Volley
for making network requests. These libraries provide higher-level abstractions, better
performance, and more features compared to the basic HTTP APIs provided by Android.
Get data from internet
To fetch data from the internet in an Android application, you need to ensure that
your app has the necessary network permissions declared in the AndroidManifest.xml file. This
is crucial for the app to access the internet. Once permissions are set, you can initiate network
requests using HTTP or HTTPS protocols. Common methods include HttpURLConnection,
which is a basic API provided by Java, or third-party libraries like OkHttp. It's essential to
execute network operations asynchronously to prevent blocking the main UI thread, which
could lead to an unresponsive user interface. Additionally, implement proper error handling
mechanisms to gracefully manage network errors and ensure a smooth user experience.
In Android application development, fetching data from the internet involves a
multi-step process that ensures smooth and reliable communication between your app and
remote servers. To begin with, it's essential to declare the necessary network permissions in
your AndroidManifest.xml file. Without these permissions, your app won't be able to access
the internet. You typically include the <uses-permission> element with the
android.permission.INTERNET permission, granting your app the ability to create network

Department of Computer Science & Engineering(AI&ML) Page 11 of 22

 Google Android Developer Virtual Internship

sockets for sending and receiving data over the internet.

Once the permissions are set, you can initiate network requests using HTTP or HTTPS
protocols. The most common methods for making network requests in Android are through the
use of HttpURLConnection or third-party libraries like OkHttp. HttpURLConnection provides
a basic API for sending HTTP requests and receiving responses. While it offers fine-grained
control over the request and response process, it can be somewhat low-level. Alternatively,
OkHttp is a widely-used third-party library that offers a more modern and efficient API
compared to HttpURLConnection.
When making network requests, it's crucial to perform these operations asynchronously.
This means executing network tasks in the background to prevent blocking the main UI thread.
Blocking the UI thread can lead to an unresponsive user interface and result in a poor user
experience. Asynchronous execution can be achieved using various techniques such as
AsyncTask, Handlers, Threads, or Kotlin coroutines. These mechanisms allow you to perform
network operations in the background while keeping the UI responsive.
Furthermore, proper error handling is essential when dealing with network requests.
Network operations are inherently unpredictable and can fail due to various reasons such as
network connectivity issues, server errors, or timeouts. Therefore, it's crucial to implement error
handling mechanisms to gracefully manage these situations. This may include implementing
retry policies, setting timeouts, and displaying appropriate error messages to the user. By
handling errors effectively, you can enhance the reliability of your app and provide a smoother
user experience.

Module 6: Data persistence

Data persistence in software development refers to the process of storing and retrieving
data to and from a persistent storage medium, such as a database or file system. It is a crucial
aspect of creating robust and user-friendly applications. There are several methods for
achieving data persistence in Android applications:

Shared Preferences: This is the simplest way to store small amounts of primitive data in key-
value pairs. Shared Preferences are ideal for storing user preferences or settings.

Internal Storage: You can store private data files directly on the device's internal storage.
These files are accessible only by your application and are not shared with other applications.

External Storage: This method allows you to save files on the device's external storage, such
as an SD card. This data is accessible by other applications and users, so it's important to
properly manage permissions and handle security concerns.

SQLite Databases: Android provides built-in support for SQLite databases, which offer a
robust way to store structured data in a relational database format. SQLite databases are suitable
for managing large datasets and performing complex queries.

Room Persistence Library: Room is a SQLite object mapping library provided by the Android
Architecture Components. It simplifies working with SQLite databases by providing an
abstraction layer and compile-time checks for SQL queries.

Network Storage: You can store data remotely on a server or cloud storage and retrieve it as
needed by your application. This approach requires network connectivity and proper handling
of data transfer and security.
Databases:
Databases are organized collections of structured information or data, typically stored
electronically in a computer system. They serve as efficient and systematic ways to manage,
organize, and retrieve data. Databases play a crucial role in various applications, ranging from
small-scale projects to large enterprise systems. Key characteristics of databases include data
integrity, security, and the ability to support concurrent access by multiple users.
SQL (Structured Query Language):
SQL, or Structured Query Language, is a powerful domain-specific language designed
for managing and manipulating relational databases. It provides a standardized way to interact
with databases, allowing users to perform operations such as querying, updating, inserting,

Department of Computer Science & Engineering(AI&ML) Page 13 of 22

 Google Android Developer Virtual Internship

and deleting data. SQL is used to define and manipulate the structure of relational databases,
create and modify tables, and retrieve information based on specified criteria.

Fig:4.6 Types of SQL Commands

Storing and Accessing Data Using Keys with DataStore

DataStore, a component of Android Jetpack, represents a contemporary approach to

managing and persisting key-value pairs, introducing a more robust and type-safe alternative
to the traditional SharedPreferences system. Operating on the foundational concept of key-
value storage, DataStore ensures that each piece of data is associated with a unique identifier,
facilitating straightforward retrieval and updates as needed. This system proves particularly
advantageous for applications requiring efficient data management, such as storing app
preferences or managing small datasets.

Within the realm of DataStore, two distinct types are available to developers:
Preferences DataStore and Proto DataStore. Preferences DataStore closely resembles
SharedPreferences but offers enhanced functionality through typed keys, thereby simplifying
the storage and retrieval process for straightforward key-value pairs. On the other hand, Proto
DataStore stands out as the preferred option for handling more intricate data structures and
objects. Leveraging Protocol Buffers for serialization, Proto DataStore empowers developers
to store and manage structured data efficiently.

One of the key strengths of DataStore lies in its seamless integration with Kotlin
Coroutines, a feature that greatly simplifies asynchronous operations for storing and retrieving
data. By leveraging coroutines, developers can execute these operations without blocking the
main thread, thereby ensuring smooth and responsive user experiences.
