Would it be possible to rewrite this in a way that Loading keeps emitting database updates rather than only a single result (first)?

flow {
    val data = query().first()

    val flow = if (shouldFetch(data)) {
        emit(Resource.Loading(data))

        try {
            saveFetchResult(fetch())
            onFetchSuccess()
            query().map { Resource.Success(it) }
        } catch (t: Throwable) {
            onFetchFailed(t)
            query().map { Resource.Error(t, it) }
        }
    } else {
        query().map { Resource.Success(it) }
    }
    emitAll(flow)
}

What are expecting the result to look like, if you println all the emissions? (I'm not sure I understand the what you're trying to achieve)

[Florian]

this is a NetworkBoundResource, i.e. it mediates between cached and remote data

[Florian]

the way its implemented right now Resource.Loading doesn't carry any database updates

[Dominaezzz]

Ahhh, but database updates don't work until after the save I'm guessing.

[Dominaezzz]

Will there be any database updates except saveFetchResult ?

[Florian]

yes, over the UI I can bookmark items which updates them in the DB
