Hey is anyone aware of a KMP DI or ViewModel library that provides a cross platform version of the hiltViewModels() method in Android?

[Andrew Watson]

Currently I"m looking at: https://mori-atsushi.github.io/koject/docs/android/viewmodel

I know that Koin has the koinViewModel() function. Not sure if it behaves the same way as the hiltViewModels() does though, as I haven’t tried it out myself

[Andrew Watson]

Thanks!

Hah, this is likely even better since it covers nav too!

[xoangon]

Nice one @Emre!

[Andrew Watson]

@Emre how does that integrate with DI on the iOS side of things?

[Andrew Watson]

Since hilt DI would only be on the Android side right?

Yes, it ought to be, as Hilt is not yet migrated to KSP (see KSP supported libraries). I’m curious to know how Voyager approaches this

[Emre]

No se, ‘coz I use Koin for cross-platform DI. The sample application voyager provides with Hilt is also Android only.

Update: Koject does exactly what I was hoping it would:

fun MainContents(
    viewModel: MainViewModel = rememberInject()
) {
    var showImage by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
    val state by viewModel.list.collectAsState()

    val navigator = LocalNavigator.currentOrThrow

    Column(
        modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
        horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
    ) {
    }
}

[Andrew Watson]

It even integrates very well with Voyager @Emre

[Emre]

Nice! I had not heard of Koject. How did you pick it?

[Emre]

@Mori Atsushi What are the benefits of Koject over the libraries (like Koin) it is inspired by?

[Mori Atsushi]

Koject checks the dependency graph at compile time 👍
