Hi everyone, I'm currently stuck in a "simple" use case using Hilt:

I want a Retrofit service singleton, which takes an OkHttpClient.
The OkHttpClient has an interceptor, which uses the Retrofit service singleton (to make a certain request inside the interceptor)

The problem is:

-> The OkHttpClient takes a Retrofit as argument
-> The Retrofit takes an OkHttpClient as argument

Cheers

I think this is not a dagger problem, it is a design problem

[Javier]

OkHttp shouldn't depend on retrofit

[Tiago Nunes]

I have solved it by creating a first Retrofit singleton, with the request needed in the interceptor

[Tiago Nunes]

But there should be a way to implement it the other way around right?... If i wanted to get Retrofit object only when Interceptor handler is called...

[Tiago Nunes]

Or maybe if i could setup the interceptor after creating the Retrofit instance...

[Ahmed Ibrahim]

From what I understood, that results in a circular dependency problem which is usually solved by injecting dagger.Lazy<Retrofit> in your Interceptor. But I'd advice you to change your design as @Javier pointed out, because using Lazy in Dagger is usually a code smell

I've changed my design, and I'll definitely look into that, thanks 🎉
