LiveDataConsumption.java

public class NameViewModel extends ViewModel {

    private MutableLiveData<String> mCurrentName;

    public MutableLiveData<String> getCurrentName() {
        if (mCurrentName == null) {
            mCurrentName = new MutableLiveData<String>();
        }
        return mCurrentName;
    }
}

public class NameActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private NameViewModel mModel;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Other code to setup the activity...

        // Get the ViewModel.
        mModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this).get(NameViewModel.class);


        // Create the observer which updates the UI.
        final Observer<String> nameObserver = new Observer<String>() {
            @Override
            public void onChanged(@Nullable final String newName) {
                // Update the UI, in this case, a TextView.
                mNameTextView.setText(newName);
            }
        };

        // Observe the LiveData, passing in this activity as the LifecycleOwner and the observer.
        mModel.getCurrentName().observe(this, nameObserver);
    }
