Anyone aware of reactive coroutine return types from db interactions being on the roadmap for Room? I see that for RxJava we get Flowable, Maybe, etc. but I don't something like that for coroutines in 2.1.0

Note: New to coroutines so that may be a dumb question 🙂

You could convert the LiveData<T> into a ReceiveChannel<T> or Flow<T> via the Publisher<T> https://developer.android.com/reference/android/arch/lifecycle/LiveDataReactiveStreams

Ah I had seen the article and already started using them, but wasn't aware of LiveDataReactiveStreams which could definitely help with the reactive queries
