10/09/2018, 4:39 AMHere is another solution that I built:
https://github.com/AllanWang/KAU/tree/dev/core/src/main/kotlin/ca/allanwang/kau/permissions
Example call:
https://github.com/AllanWang/KAU/blob/dev/sample/src/main/kotlin/ca/allanwang/kau/sample/AnimActivity.kt#L36
If you want to implement it yourself, the idea is that you can pass a vararg of permission keys and register a callback. You can keep a weak reference to it and then handle the callbacks when you get a response. The problem here is that your permission requests will not stick if your activity reloads (which is why the response is tied to the activity anyways), but that is typically fine as the user can just request it again
