Expert: Doctor Consult using RxAndroid and MVVM with Huawei Kits (Account, Map, Identity) in Android App.
Published: 2022-03-11 09:41:15


![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/kkct5hqwjj0rvnaj7dzd.png)Overview
In this article, I will create a Doctor Consult Demo App along with the integration of Huawei Id, Map and Identity Kit. Which provides an easy interface to consult with doctor. Users can choose specific doctors and get the doctor details using Huawei User Address.
By reading this article, you'll get an overview of HMS Core Identity, Map and Account Kit, including its functions, open capabilities and business value.
HMS Core Map Service Introduction
HMS Core Map SDK is a set of APIs for map development in Android. The map data covers most countries outside China and supports multiple languages. The Map SDK uses the WGS 84 GPS coordinate system, which can meet most requirements of map development outside China. You can easily add map-related functions in your Android app, including:
Map display: Displays buildings, roads, water systems, and Points of Interest (POIs).
Map interaction: Controls the interaction gestures and buttons on the map.
Map drawing: Adds location markers, map layers, overlays, and various shapes.

## 
Prerequisite
1.Huawei Phone EMUI 3.0 or later.
2.Non-Huawei phones Android 4.4 or later (API level 19 or higher).
3.Android Studio.
4.AppGallery Account.

## 
App Gallery Integration process
1.Sign In and Create or Choose a project on AppGallery Connect portal.
2.Navigate to Project settings and download the configuration file.
3.Navigate to General Information, and then provide Data Storage location.

## 
App Development
1.Create A New Project.
2.Configure Project Gradle.

```
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven {url 'https://developer.huawei.com/repo/'}
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1"
        classpath 'com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.4.2.300'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven {url 'https://developer.huawei.com/repo/'}
    }
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}
```
3.Configure App Gradle.
```//map
//  implementation 'com.huawei.hms:maps:4.0.0.301'
    implementation 'com.huawei.hms:maps:5.0.1.300'
    //site
    implementation 'com.huawei.hms:site:4.0.0.300'
    //location
    implementation 'com.huawei.hms:location:4.0.3.301'

    implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.5.0'
    implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.5.0'
    implementation "com.squareup.retrofit2:adapter-rxjava2:2.6.2"

    implementation 'io.reactivex:rxjava:1.3.0'
    implementation 'io.reactivex:rxandroid:1.2.1'
    implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'


    implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:logging-interceptor:4.2.2'

    // RxAndroid
    implementation 'io.reactivex.rxjava2:rxjava:2.2.8'
    implementation 'io.reactivex.rxjava2:rxandroid:2.1.1'
```
4.Configure AndroidManifest.xml.
``` <meta-data
            android:name="install_channel"
            android:value="AppGallery" />
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.huawei.hms.client.appid"
            android:value="XXXXXXX" />`
5.Create Activity class with XML UI.
DirectionActivity:

Tips and Tricks
Map data of Map Kit does not cover the Chinese mainland. Therefore, the Map SDK for Android, Map SDK (Java) for HarmonyOS, JavaScript API, Static Map API, and Directions API of Map Kit are unavailable in the Chinese mainland. For details about locations where the services are available.
The map zoom icons flash on the map on devices running Android 8 or earlier before the map is loaded. (This issue occurs at a low probability in Android 8, but does not occur in versions later than Android 8.)

Layout file (XML file): Set uiZoomControls to false.
Code file: Set the parameter of the HuaweiMapOptions.zoomControlsEnabled(boolean isZoomControlsEnabled) method to false.
