详解Android插件化开发-资源访问

2016-10-05 15:32 477 查看
动态加载技术(也叫插件化技术),当项目越来越庞大的时候,我们通过插件化开发不仅可以减轻应用的内存和CPU占用,还可以实现热插拔,即在不发布新版本的情况下更新某些模块。

通常我们把安卓资源文件制作成插件的形式,无外乎有一下几种:

zip、jar、dex、APK(未安装APK、安装APK)

对于用户来讲未安装的APK才是用户所需要的,不安装、不重启,无声无息的加载资源文件,这正是我们开发者追求的结果。

但是,开发中宿主程序调起未安装的插件apk,一个很大的问题就是资源如何访问,这些资源文件的ID都映射在gen文件夹下的R.java中,而插件中凡是以R开头的资源都不能访问。究其原因是因为宿主程序中并没有插件的资源,所以通过R来加载插件的资源是行不通的,程序会抛出异常:无法找到某某id所对应的资源。

那么开发中该怎么办呢,今天我们来一起探讨一下插件化开发中资源文件访问的解决方案。

想必大家在开发中都写过类似代码,例如,在主程序访问字符串文件

this.getResources().getString(R.string.app_name);


这里的this,其实就是Context,上下文对象。通常我们的的APK安装路径为:

/data/apk/packagename~1/base.apk

APK启动,Context通过类加载器加载完毕后,会去APK中加载资源文件。想必大家都知道,Activity的工作主要是通过ContextImpl来完成的, Activity中有一个叫mBase的成员变量,它的类型就是ContextImpl。注意到Context中有如下两个抽象方法,看起来是和资源有关的,实际上Context就是通过它们来获取资源的。这两个抽象方法的真正实现在ContextImpl中,也就是说,只要实现这两个方法,就可以解决资源问题了。

/** Return an AssetManager instance for your application's package. */

public abstract AssetManager getAssets();

/** Return a Resources instance for your application's package. */

public abstract Resources getResources();


我们若是想使用这两个方法,需要实例化Context对象,通常我们可以根据APK中的包名完成Context对象的创建:

Context pluginContext = this.createPackageContext("com.castiel.demo",flags);


但是这样做有个前提,必须要求初始化时加载的是自己APK,如果我们加载的是未安装的插件APK,这么做肯定就不可取了。为啥呢,看源码:

Resources resources = packageInfo.getResources(mainThread);
if (resources != null) {
if (activityToken != null
|| displayId != Display.DEFAULT_DISPLAY
|| overrideConfiguration != null
|| (compatInfo != null && compatInfo.applicationScale
!= resources.getCompatibilityInfo().applicationScale)) {
resources = mResourcesManager.getTopLevelResources(packageInfo.getResDir(),
packageInfo.getSplitResDirs(), packageInfo.getOverlayDirs(),
packageInfo.getApplicationInfo().sharedLibraryFiles, displayId,
overrideConfiguration, compatInfo, activityToken);
}
}
mResources = resources;


Resources在这里被赋值,我们再去代码中第一行的packageInfo,它来自LoadedApk类,其中的getResources方法如下:

public Resources getResources(ActivityThread mainThread) {
if (mResources == null) {
mResources = mainThread.getTopLevelResources(mResDir, mSplitResDirs, mOverlayDirs,
mApplicationInfo.sharedLibraryFiles, Display.DEFAULT_DISPLAY, null, this);
}
return mResources;
}


该方法采用单例模式,注意其中的getTopLevelResources()方法中的第一个参数mResDir,我们继续找其源头,在ActivityThread类中,发现了:

/**
* Creates the top level resources for the given package.
*/
Resources getTopLevelResources(String resDir, String[] splitResDirs, String[] overlayDirs,
String[] libDirs, int displayId, Configuration overrideConfiguration,
LoadedApk pkgInfo) {
return mResourcesManager.getTopLevelResources(resDir, splitResDirs, overlayDirs, libDirs,
displayId, overrideConfiguration, pkgInfo.getCompatibilityInfo(), null);
}


重点看里面的resDir参数,我们再往上找源码,最终找到ResourcesManager类,找到getTopLevelResources()方法:

/**
* Creates the top level Resources for applications with the given compatibility info.
*
* @param resDir the resource directory.
* @param overlayDirs the resource overlay directories.
* @param libDirs the shared library resource dirs this app references.
* @param compatInfo the compability info. Must not be null.
* @param token the application token for determining stack bounds.
*/
public Resources getTopLevelResources(String resDir, String[] splitResDirs,
String[] overlayDirs, String[] libDirs, int displayId,
Configuration overrideConfiguration, CompatibilityInfo compatInfo, IBinder token) {
final float scale = compatInfo.applicationScale;
ResourcesKey key = new ResourcesKey(resDir, displayId, overrideConfiguration, scale, token);
Resources r;
synchronized (this) {
// Resources is app scale dependent.
if (false) {
Slog.w(TAG, "getTopLevelResources: " + resDir + " / " + scale);
}
WeakReference<Resources> wr = mActiveResources.get(key);
r = wr != null ? wr.get() : null;
//if (r != null) Slog.i(TAG, "isUpToDate " + resDir + ": " + r.getAssets().isUpToDate());
if (r != null && r.getAssets().isUpToDate()) {
if (false) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Returning cached resources " + r + " " + resDir
+ ": appScale=" + r.getCompatibilityInfo().applicationScale);
}
return r;
}
}
//if (r != null) {
//    Slog.w(TAG, "Throwing away out-of-date resources!!!! "
//            + r + " " + resDir);
//}

AssetManager assets = new AssetManager();
// resDir can be null if the 'android' package is creating a new Resources object.
// This is fine, since each AssetManager automatically loads the 'android' package
// already.
if (resDir != null) {
if (assets.addAssetPath(resDir) == 0) {
return null;
}
}

if (splitResDirs != null) {
for (String splitResDir : splitResDirs) {
if (assets.addAssetPath(splitResDir) == 0) {
return null;
}
}
}

if (overlayDirs != null) {
for (String idmapPath : overlayDirs) {
assets.addOverlayPath(idmapPath);
}
}

if (libDirs != null) {
for (String libDir : libDirs) {
if (assets.addAssetPath(libDir) == 0) {
Slog.w(TAG, "Asset path '" + libDir +
"' does not exist or contains no resources.");
}
}
}

//Slog.i(TAG, "Resource: key=" + key + ", display metrics=" + metrics);
DisplayMetrics dm = getDisplayMetricsLocked(displayId);
Configuration config;
boolean isDefaultDisplay = (displayId == Display.DEFAULT_DISPLAY);
final boolean hasOverrideConfig = key.hasOverrideConfiguration();
if (!isDefaultDisplay || hasOverrideConfig) {
config = new Configuration(getConfiguration());
if (!isDefaultDisplay) {
applyNonDefaultDisplayMetricsToConfigurationLocked(dm, config);
}
if (hasOverrideConfig) {
config.updateFrom(key.mOverrideConfiguration);
}
} else {
config = getConfiguration();
}
r = new Resources(assets, dm, config, compatInfo, token);
if (false) {
Slog.i(TAG, "Created app resources " + resDir + " " + r + ": "
+ r.getConfiguration() + " appScale="
+ r.getCompatibilityInfo().applicationScale);
}

synchronized (this) {
WeakReference<Resources> wr = mActiveResources.get(key);
Resources existing = wr != null ? wr.get() : null;
if (existing != null && existing.getAssets().isUpToDate()) {
// Someone else already created the resources while we were
// unlocked; go ahead and use theirs.
r.getAssets().close();
return existing;
}

// XXX need to remove entries when weak references go away
mActiveResources.put(key, new WeakReference<Resources>(r));
return r;
}
}


该方法的注释中,明确指出@param resDir the resource directory,加载本地资源目录,加载自己的APK。

通过以上的分析,我们知道getResources()方法通过AssetManager加载自己的APK,那么我们要想加载未安装的插件APK,唯有自定义实现一个Resources类,专门用来加载未安装的APK。但是我试过了,直接重写不行,为啥,因为Android并没有提供Resource构造方法中的AssetManager的构造方法,我们看下源码:

/**
* Create a new Resources object on top of an existing set of assets in an
* AssetManager.
*
* @param assets Previously created AssetManager.
* @param metrics Current display metrics to consider when
*                selecting/computing resource values.
* @param config Desired device configuration to consider when
*               selecting/computing resource values (optional).
*/
public Resources(AssetManager assets, DisplayMetrics metrics, Configuration config) {
this(assets, metrics, config, CompatibilityInfo.DEFAULT_COMPATIBILITY_INFO);
}


接着再看一下Resource构造方法中的AssetManager参数源码

/**
* Create a new AssetManager containing only the basic system assets.
* Applications will not generally use this method, instead retrieving the
* appropriate asset manager with {@link Resources#getAssets}.    Not for
* use by applications.
* {@hide}
*/
public AssetManager() {
synchronized (this) {
if (DEBUG_REFS) {
mNumRefs = 0;
incRefsLocked(this.hashCode());
}
init(false);
if (localLOGV) Log.v(TAG, "New asset manager: " + this);
ensureSystemAssets();
}
}


注意注释中的{@hide},隐藏起来了,Android系统不让我们使用。既然不让我们直接使用,那我们可以采用反射的方式来拿到AssetManager。接下来我把自定义的实现类贴出来,给大家示例:

/**
*
* @ClassName: MyPluginResources
* @Description: 自定义插件资源文件获取工具类
* @author 猴子搬来的救兵http://blog.csdn.net/mynameishuangshuai
* @version
*/
public class MyPluginResources extends Resources{

public MyPluginResources(AssetManager assets, DisplayMetrics metrics, Configuration config) {
super(assets, metrics, config);
}

/**
* 自定义返回插件的资源文件的Resource方法
* @param resources
* @param assets
* @return
*/
public static MyPluginResources getPluginResources(Resources resources,AssetManager assets){
MyPluginResources pluginResources = new MyPluginResources(assets, resources.getDisplayMetrics(), resources.getConfiguration());
return pluginResources;
}

//自己定义加载插件APK的AssetsManager
public static AssetManager getPluginAssetsManager(File apkFile,Resources resources) throws ClassNotFoundException{
// 由于系统没有提供AssetManager的实例化方法,因此我们使用反射
Class<?> forName = Class.forName("android.content.res.AssetManager");
Method[] declaredMethods = forName.getDeclaredMethods();
for(Method method :declaredMethods){
if(method.getName().equals("addAssetPath")){
try {
AssetManager assetManager = AssetManager.class.newInstance();
// 调用addAssetPath方法,参数为我们插件APK的路径
method.invoke(assetManager, apkFile.getAbsolutePath());
return assetManager;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
return null;
}
}




这样,我们在项目中就可以使用我们自定义的AssetManager来获取未安装插件APK中的资源文件

AssetManager assetManager = PluginResources.getPluginAssetsManager(apkFile,
this.getResources());
