I have the following code

protected suspend fun stdout(message: String, emit: suspend (WfResult) -> Unit) {
    emit(WfResult.Stdout(message))
}

protected suspend fun stderr(message: String, emit: suspend (WfResult) -> Unit) {
    emit(WfResult.Stderr(message))
}

open fun main() : Flow<Any>  = flow {
   stdout("someString" , ::emit)
 }

How do I make my own flow so I can use it like this (or how do I extend flow to add more methods):

open fun main() : Flow<Any>  = myFlow {

   stdout("someString")
   stderr("someString")
 }

Make a subinterface of FlowCollector that includes stdout and stderr methods, and then write myFlow to take an extension method on it that delegates to an underlying flow’s emit methods

You could also do sth. like this:

suspend fun FlowCollector<WfResult>.stderr(message: String) {
    stderr(message, ::emit)
}

suspend fun FlowCollector<WfResult>.stdout(message: String) {
    stdout(message, ::emit)
}

thank you, way easier than I thought
