I am trying to add pagination to my

LazyColumn

using Paging3 (with its compose library). I now show the paginated list by converting the

PagingData

into a

LazyPagigItems

object. My issue is that I cannot find a way to show any state other than the success state like showing the loading indicator or showing an error when the loading of a page fails. I have done this outside Compose using RecyclerViews but I cant find anything useful for it in Compose.

What do you mean you cannot find a way. Have you tried observing the states,?

Your composable's lazy paging state object has a

loadState

with properties like

append, prepend,

refresh

that can be observed to be in Loading, Error, Refreshing, etc. Not sure on the syntax, replying here on mobile, but that's the gist of it

@Patrick Kellison @myanmarking Like this? 🤔

val prependLoading = trendingGifs.loadState.prepend == LoadState.Loading
    val appendLoading = trendingGifs.loadState.append == LoadState.Loading

So if these == loading it means data is being loaded on that side? I have to just handle how to properly show it in the composables?

Not like that. Something like: if(loadstate is LoadState.Loading) ... else ...

Oh right
