RxJava 的后备 Observable

我正在寻找一种更好的方法来实现使用 RxJava 时针对空结果的简单 Observable 后备系统。这个想法是，如果对一组数据的本地查询导致零项，则应该进行回退查询（可能是网络调用或其他查询）。目前，我的代码包含以下内容：

Observable.create(new Observable.OnSubscribe<Object>() {
  @Override
  public void call(Subscriber<? super Object> subscriber) {
     List<Object> results = queryLocalDatabase();
     if (results.isEmpty()) {
       subscriber.onError(new Throwable("Empty results"));
     } else {
       // Process results...
     }
  }
}).onErrorResumeNext(/* Fallback Observable goes here */);

尽管这可行，但为空结果集引发异常并没有多大意义。我注意到有可用的条件运算符，例如isEmpty，但它似乎并没有让我到达我想去的地方。例如，使用isEmpty...

localObservable = Observable.create(new Observable.OnSubscribe<Object>() {
  @Override
  public void call(Subscriber<? super Object> subscriber) {
     List<Object> results = queryLocalDatabase();
     for (Object obj : results) {
       // Process object
       subscriber.onNext(object);           
     }
     subscriber.onCompleted();
  }
});

localObservable.isEmpty()
  .switchMap(new Func1<Boolean, Observable<? extends Object>>() {
    @Override
    public Observable<? extends Object> call(Boolean isEmpty) {
      if (isEmpty) {
        // Return fallback Observable.
        return fallbackObservable;
      }

      // Return original Observable, which would mean running the local query again... Not desired.
      return localObservable;
    }
  });

这几乎让我到达了我想去的地方，除了localObservable如果存在非空项目，则似乎会运行两次，这是一个破坏交易的情况。

Use switchIfEmpty操作员。

有使用示例：

Observable.create(new Observable.OnSubscribe<String>() {
    @Override
    public void call(Subscriber<? super String> subscriber) {
        // return no item
        //subscriber.onNext(...);
        System.out.println("Generating nothing :)");
        subscriber.onCompleted();
    }
}).switchIfEmpty(Observable.create(new Observable.OnSubscribe<String>() {
    @Override
    public void call(Subscriber<? super String> subscriber) {
        System.out.println("Generating item");
        subscriber.onNext("item");
        subscriber.onCompleted();
    }
})).subscribe(new Observer<String>() {
    @Override
    public void onCompleted() {
        System.out.println("onCompleted");
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(Throwable e) {
        System.out.println("onError");
    }

    @Override
    public void onNext(String s) {
        System.out.println("onNext: " + s);
    }
});

用 lambda 简化：

Observable.create(subscriber -> {
    // return no item
    //subscriber.onNext(...);
    System.out.println("Generating nothing :)");
    subscriber.onCompleted();
}).switchIfEmpty(Observable.create(subscriber -> {
    System.out.println("Generating item");
    subscriber.onNext("item");
    subscriber.onCompleted();
})).subscribe(
    s -> System.out.println("onNext: " + s),
    throwable -> System.out.println("onError"),
    () -> System.out.println("onCompleted")
);
