<string name="app_package">com.example.app
</string>
Consumer Key Salesforce Resource File:
<string name="remoteAccessConsumerKey">
3MVG9xOCXq...
</string>

16. Setting Up Android Studio
§ Usage of Android Studio is
highly recommended
§ Create a Library project for
the Mobile SDK so you can
reference it easily from your
projects
§ Good Practice: Shared
project for constants,
resources etc.
§ Gradle as Build System
§ Use real devices for
debugging instead of using
Emulators

19. Apex Code Snippet – Create & Send Notification/ Message
// send the notification
Messaging.PushNotification msg = new Messaging.PushNotification();
Map<String, Object> payload = new Map<String, Object>();
payload.put('ownerName', owner.Name);
payload.put('ownerFullPhotoUrl', owner.FullPhotoUrl);
...
msg.setPayload(payload);
// The approver's Id
String userId = result.actorIds[0];
Set<String> users = new Set<String>();
users.add(userId);
msg.send('Android_Wear', users);
Create Message Object
Create Payload
Add Payload to Message
Add target Users
Send Message to target
Users

20. Implement PushNotificationInterface
​ PushNotificationInterface is a Mobile SDK Android interface for
handling push notifications. PushNotificationInterface has a
single method, onPushMessageReceived(Bundle message).
public class TravelPushNotification implements PushNotificationInterface {
...
@Override
public void onPushMessageReceived(final Bundle bundle) {
... //create an async task if you perform network tasks etc!
Eg. Build your notification HERE

21. Create Notifications with the Notification Builder
​ The v4 support library allows you to create notifications using the latest
notification features such as action buttons and large icons.
​ To create a notification with the support library, you create an instance of
NotificationCompat.Builder and issue the notification by passing it to notify()
// Main notification
NotificationCompat.Builder mainNotification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.s1_icon)
.setContentTitle(travelMessage.ownerName)
.setContentText(“Travel approval required: " + travelMessage.travelName);
...
// Open Card
mainNotification.setContentIntent(openPendingIntent);
NotificationManagerCompat.from(context).notify(1, mainNotification.build());

22. Add Wearable Features For a Notification
​ If you ever need to add wearable-specific options to a notification, such
as specifying additional pages of content or letting users dictate a text
response with voice input, you can use the
NotificationCompat.WearableExtender class to specify the options.
WearableExtender wearableExtender = new WearableExtender()
.addAction(approveAction)
.addAction(rejectAction)
.addPage(detailNotification);
mainNotification.extend(wearableExtender);

26. The Wearable Data Layer API is part of Google Play services and provides a
communication channel for your companion and wearable apps. The API
supports the synchronization of data objects over the wire and eventing.
The Data API
A DataItem provides data storage with
automatic syncing between the
handheld and wearable.
Asset objects are for sending binary
blobs of data, such as images. You
attach assets to data items and the
system automatically takes care of the
transfer for you, conserving Bluetooth
bandwidth by caching large assets to
avoid re-transmission.
​ WearableListenerService lets you
listen for important data layer events in a
service. The system manages the lifecycle
of the WearableListenerService
​ DataListener lets you listen for
important data layer events when an
activity is in the foreground. Lets you listen
for changes only when the user is actively
using your app.
​ You can use the ChannelApi class to
transfer large data items, such as music
and movie files, from a handheld to a
wearable device.
​ The MessageApi class can send
messages and is good for remote
procedure calls (RPC), such as controlling
a handheld's media player from the
wearable or starting an intent on the
wearable from the handheld. Messages
are also great for one-way requests or for a
request/response communication model.
Data Events Channel / Message

27. For Demonstration of the Data Sync we create a full screen
UI wearable app
​ An Android wear application is nearly identical to a normal smartphone app. In our example we
will use the Data API to exchange Data between the Wear device and the companion app running
on the smart phone. For our example we could also use the Message API.
​ Extend the MainActivity if you want to listen to data events on the UI Thread.
// Main Activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity
implements ConnectionCallbacks, OnConnectionFailedListener,
DataApi.DataListener, MessageApi.MessageListener, NodeApi.NodeListener {
... Your App Code goes here
@Override
public void onDataChanged(DataEventBuffer dataEvents) {
....
If you want to listen to Data change Events

28. Speech Recognition
​ Voice actions (System- or App provided “OK Google, …) and the system's built-in Speech
Recognizer activity can be used to obtain speech input from users.
// Create an intent that can start the Speech Recognizer activity
private void displaySpeechRecognizer() {
Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
// Start the activity, the intent will be populated with the speech text
startActivityForResult(intent, SPEECH_REQUEST_CODE);
}
// invoked when the Speech Recognizer returns, extract the speech text from the intent.
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
List<String> results = data.getStringArrayListExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_RESULTS);
chatterText = results.get(0);
<create & send the data event>
}

29. Sending Data
​ A DataItem defines the data interface that the system uses to synchronize data between handhelds and
wearables. A DataItem generally consists of the following items:
§ Payload - A byte array, which you can set with whatever data you wish, allowing you to do your own object
serialization and deserialization. The size of the payload is limited to 100KB.
§ Path - A unique string that must start with a forward slash (for instance, "/salesforce/wearable/chatter")
// Create a data map and put data in it
private void createChatterData(String post) {
//Create the data request object
PutDataMapRequest putDataMapReq = PutDataMapRequest.create (“/chatter ");
putDataMapReq.getDataMap().putString(CHATTER_KEY, post);
PutDataRequest putDataReq = putDataMapReq.asPutDataRequest();
// Adds a DataItem to the Android Wear network. à synchronized across all devices
PendingResult<DataApi.DataItemResult> pendingResult =
Wearable.DataApi.putDataItem(mGoogleApiClient, putDataReq);
}
...

30. A DataLayerService will listen on all data events
​ The data layer synchronizes and sends data across the handheld and wearable, you normally want to listen
for important events, such as when data items are created, are received, etc. Options:
§ Create a service that extends WearableListenerService.
§ Create an activity that implements DataApi.DataListener.
public class DataLayerListenerService extends WearableListenerService {
/.../
@Override
public void onDataChanged(DataEventBuffer dataEvents) {
if (!mGoogleApiClient.isConnected()... //check for connectivity!!!
// Loop through the events for (DataEvent event : dataEvents) {
Uri uri = event.getDataItem().getUri();
String path = uri.getPath();
if (COUNT_PATH.equals(path)) {
// get the payload
byte[] payload = uri.toString().getBytes();
// *Chatter something J
postChatterMessage(payload);
...

32. Key Takeaways
§ Keep your Wear UI as simple as possible!!!
§ Always test on real devices
§ The Salesforce Mobile SDK and Connected Apps handle most of the
connection complexity for your application
§ Wear Devices are mainly informative devices or to automatically
collect data
§ The Notification is a great and simple way to expand your existing
Android app to Wear Watches without the need to code a custom
Wear app

36. UI Building Blocks - Android Wear is different!
Users are used to tapping icons to launch apps. A typical Wear app adds a card to the stream at a contextually
relevant moment. It might have a button that opens a full screen view, but it just as well might not.
Application Type Device
Devlopment
Contextual card in the
stream
Bridged notifications, such as new message notifications, are pushed to the
wearable from the connected handheld using standard Android notifications.
They require very little or no Wear-specific code.
✗
Contextual notifications, such as an exercise card that appears when you
begin running, are generated locally on the wearable and appear at
contextually relevant moments. You can do more with this kind of card than
with a notification bridged from the handheld.
✔
Full screen UI app: 2D Picker is a design pattern that allows the user to select from a set of items,
such as to select an artist then an album. We recommend using this pre-built
component from the SDK whenever relevant.
✔
Custom layouts are also possible where apps need to extend beyond the
basic card/stream metaphor, such as to present a graph or map. ✔
Keep your app always-on if you have information that refreshes or stays
relevant, without draining the battery. ✔
Watch Face Android Wear supports custom watch faces with designs that can show
contextually relevant information to users. ✔
