You can use

AndroidUiDispatcher

that supplies a frame clock:

(scope + AndroidUiDispatcher.CurrentThread).launchMolecule(ContextClock) { ... }

With the viewModelScope or a new one?

It also seems like molecule itself has a

AndroidUiDispatcher

... what is that one? And why wouldn't molecule provide some kind of helper for such a common (?) use case?

you can use it without a frame clock and it will work in any scope

So why/when should I use it WITH a frame clock?

if you only want a single emission per frame tick

When in a

ViewModel

I wouldn't need that, whereas when using straight from a compose view, I would?

And it seems they all need to pass a clock:

fun <T> CoroutineScope.launchMolecule(
  clock: RecompositionClock,
  body: @Composable () -> T,
): StateFlow<T>

it's entirely up to you. you can emit as fast as you want or you can emit once per frame.

I would use immediate instead of ContextClock to

use it without a frame clock

?

yes

it will then behave similar to a

combine

operator. any time an input changes it will emit a new output.

👋 Hi, I work on the pre-release AWS SDK for Kotlin and we use OkHttp as our default HTTP engine for sending requests to AWS services. It's a fantastic HTTP client but we've recently discovered that it does not support bodies in GET requests. It looks like there was discussion with okhttp on GH about these kinds of requests previously and the stance at the time was "It’s unlikely we’ll ever support request bodies with GET." Unfortunately, it seems that multiple AWS services have multiple GET APIs which allow (or even require) bodies. Has the stance on GET bodies changed recently? Would the OkHttp team be open to accepting a pull request that enabled GET bodies, possibly enabled by an opt-in config option?

Hi, I would like to use workflow for our Kotlin Multiplatform project. But I couldn’t find any related documentation. So, does workflow support Kotlin Multiplatform?

Am using KotlinPoet to generate list of properties and wondering if there's way to not have the extra newline between each one?

Hi, I am trying to integrate paparazzi in our project, but I am running into two issues, possibly because we're doing things the wrong way in our project. Describing them takes a lot of text, so I will do it in a thread 🧵

I find https://cashapp.github.io/sqldelight/js_sqlite/migrations/ misleading. Reading the sentence

If you run your migration from code [...]

I was thinking that just having a

1.sqm

would cause the database to update, because the first sentence make it sound like the code migration way is optional. But since this does not work it looks like I have to call

Database.Schema.migrate()

in code regardless. Correct?

All platforms aside from Android require that, yes

Seems like it could use a wording tweak

Hi! Is the SqlDelight plugin discontinued? I can’t find a version that works with the latest IntelliJ versions. I’m using SqlDelight for the first time, so it’s quite possible that I’m doing something wrong 😅

No, it's not. We only have some problems updating to the latest IntelliJ versions.

Nice, thanks for the info!

Jesse and Jake, congrats on the forthcoming offspring (just watched your podcast interview). I wanted to check, what might be the expected timeframe for a future Okio release that could include this PR? I'm in the process of tying up some remaining loose ends for releasing my KMP library, one of those being using a public release of Okio rather than local maven build. Also, I'd be happy to explore options for encapsulating these extensions in a companion object as you mentioned. What would be the best class location, with

Source

being an interface? Would it make sense for both

NSInputStream.source()

and

BufferedSource.inputStream()

to live in

BufferedSource

?

Hey! SQLDelight question. I have an existing SQLite database that uses

VARCHAR

and

NUMERIC

types. I dumped the schema into a

.sq

file and it seems SQLDelight doesn’t like these types.

<type name real> expected, got 'VARCHAR'

How do I get it to accept these? I recall reading about dialects; is that where I should be looking?

Neither of those are technically data types that Sqlite supports per https://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html. However, raw sqlite will coerce both of those into an associated type and affinity.

the VARCHAR can simply become TEXT as it has the same resulting type affinity

i would have to check the grammar for SQLDelight's sqlite support, but i'm not sure it's possible to create a column with numeric affinity

Hmm, OK, thanks. Creating

NUMERIC

columns does work (empirically) but maybe it’s not ideal.

if you're inserting strings and want them to be parsed as integers and then fall back to reals then it's what you want. otherwise i would prefer an int or real type directly.
