GitHub - kallemshivashekarreddy/Volley-examples: Volley Library in Android Volley is an HTTP library that makes networking very easy and fast, for Android apps. It was developed by Google and introduced during Google I/O 2013. It was developed because there is an absence in Android SDK, of a networking class capable of working without interfering with the user experience. Although Volley is a part of the Android Open Source Project(AOSP), Google announced in January 2017 that Volley will move to a standalone library. It manages the processing and caching of network requests and it saves developers valuable time from writing the same network call/cache code again and again. Volley is not suitable for large download or streaming operations since Volley holds all responses in memory during parsing. Features of Volley: Request queuing and prioritization Effective request cache and memory management Extensibility and customization of the library to our needs Cancelling the requests Advantages of using Volley: All the task that need to be done with Networking in Android, can be done with the help of Volley. Automatic scheduling of network requests. Catching Multiple concurrent network connections. Cancelling request API. Request prioritization. Volley provides debugging and tracing tools. How to Import Volley and add Permissions: Before getting started with Volley, one needs to import Volley and add permissions in the Android Project. The steps to do so are as follows: Create new project. Open build.gradle(Moule: app) and add the following dependency: dependencies{ //... implementation 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0' } In AndroidMaifest.xml add the internet permission: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET />" Classes in Volley Library: Volley has two main classes: Request Queue: It is the interest one uses for dispatching requests to the network.
