I'm building a service with a retrofit. Is there an adapter to use Either as return type? Or is there some different suggested way of handling retrofit calls?

[stojan]

you can use the default Retrofit support for suspend function

[Youssef Shoaib [MOD]]

in Arrow Core, There's an adapter for that: https://github.com/arrow-kt/arrow-core/tree/master/arrow-core-retrofit/src/main/kotlin/arrow/retrofit/adapter/either

[stojan]

or the adapter from arrow-core.... that handles 4XX and 5XX errors as Either.Left

[Maciek]

awesome, thanks!

[Maciek]

are those adapters released yet? I can't find them in 0.10.5 or 0.11 snapshot

[Maciek]

or do I need other artifact than core?

[Jannis]

They have been moved from arrow integrations, you can find them there for 0.10.5 and in core for snapshots

[Youssef Shoaib [MOD]]

I think it's either a subpackage of core or an artifact called arrow-core-retrofit

[Maciek]

yup, it's an artifact arrow-core-retrofit. Thanks

[stojan]

I believe it was added after the 0.10.5 release, so it's only available in snapshots
