RxJava is a reactive programming library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs by
using observable sequences.
The Places Rx library
lets you receive observable sequences for asynchronus events on the Maps SDK for Android
and Places SDK for Android so you can take advantage of the rich set of RxJava features.
Installation
To install the Places Rx library in your Google Maps project:
Add the following dependencies to your module-level build.gradle file:
dependencies {// RxJava bindings for the Maps SDKimplementation("com.google.maps.android:maps-rx:1.0.0")// RxJava bindings for the Places SDKimplementation("com.google.maps.android:places-rx:1.0.0")// It is recommended to also include the latest Maps SDK, Places SDK and RxJava so you// have the latest features and bug fixes.implementation("com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:19.0.0")implementation("com.google.android.libraries.places:places:3.5.0")implementation("io.reactivex.rxjava3:rxjava:3.1.8")
Rebuild your project in Android Studio to sync these changes.

Single,
and subscribe to it, when fetching place details:
placesClient.fetchPlace(placeId = "thePlaceId",placeFields = listOf(Place.Field.ID, Place.Field.NAME, Place.Field.ADDRESS),actions = {}).subscribe({ response ->
Log.d("PlacesRx", "Successfully got place ${response.place.id}")},{ error ->
Log.e("PlacesRx", "Could not get place:${error.message}")})}
