I'm trying to define a ViewModel that accepts a navigation lambda as such

@HiltViewModel
class MyScreenViewModel
@Inject
constructor(var navEvent: (String) -> Unit)

which makes sure that this navEvent is passed in.

fun MyScreen(viewModel: MyScreenViewModel = hiltViewModel(//how do I pass something in))

Is there an easy way to pass in a lambda? I've passed arguments into viewModels with compose before but hiltViewModel did all the heavy lifting and exposed the argument via savedStateHandle. Can I somehow pass this lambda into my savedStateHandle? I'd be okay with that.

Hilt does not support assisted injection (values provided at runtime): https://github.com/google/dagger/issues/2287

Okay good. I thought I was overlooking something in the docs. I'll just provide a little init() method with the params. Less fancy (and safety), but it works and will fail fast. Thanks

Out of curiosity @Colton Idle, are you moving your navigation to ViewModel?

I'm passing lamdas to the viewModel where needed and so the navigate calls are still contained in my navHost
