Overview

It is able to detect ConnectivityStatus when it changes.

public enum ConnectivityStatus {
    UNKNOWN("unknown"),
    WIFI_CONNECTED("connected to WiFi"),
    WIFI_CONNECTED_HAS_INTERNET("connected to WiFi (Internet available)"),
    WIFI_CONNECTED_HAS_NO_INTERNET("connected to WiFi (Internet not available)"),
    MOBILE_CONNECTED("connected to mobile network"),
    OFFLINE("offline");
    ...
}    

In addition, it is able to detect situation when strength of the Wifi signal was changed with WifiSignalStrengthChanged event.

Usage

Add permissions to AndroidManifest.xml file inside the <manifest> tag.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

In your activity add Bus field from Otto Event Bus library and NetworkEvents field.

private Bus bus;
private NetworkEvents networkEvents;

Initialize objects in onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) method.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    bus = new Bus();
    networkEvents = new NetworkEvents(this, bus);
}

Register Bus and NetworkEvents in onResume() method and unregister them in onPause() method.

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    bus.register(this);
    networkEvents.register();
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    super.onPause();
    bus.unregister(this);
    networkEvents.unregister();
}

Subscribe for the events

@Subscribe
public void onConnectivityChanged(ConnectivityChanged event) {
    // get connectivity status from event.getConnectivityStatus()
    // and do whatever you want
}

@Subscribe
public void onWifiSignalStrengthChanged(WifiSignalStrengthChanged event) {
    // do whatever you want - e.g. read fresh list of access points
}
