Hey, I'm trying out Ktor's WebSocket client library. It returns incoming messages from a web socket as a

SharedFlow

- I'm trying to figure out how to keep the web socket session (

DefaultClientWebSocketSession

) running in the background so that I can collect the

SharedFlow

messages and display them on screen as they stream in into a

LazyColumn

or similar. I'm not sure how to fit this into Compose's state tools. I tried using

coroutineScope.launch{}

with

rememberCoroutineScope()

but it seems like the web socket session would stop as soon as the coroutine scope ended.

you need 'wider' scope - for testing try Global scope

Hmm, trying that still results in the session immediately closing
