12/29/2021, 2:52 PMHello. Could you please elaborate what is "custom lifecycle"? Do you need to manually control the lifecycle?

Artyom Bambalov
12/29/2021, 2:54 PMI mean something like that:

12/29/2021, 2:55 PMI want to start my own lifecycle with special event and end it with another one event

Arkadii Ivanov
12/29/2021, 2:57 PMIn MVIKotlin the binder works in another way, it accepts the Lifecycle from the Essenty library directly.

Artyom Bambalov
12/29/2021, 2:57 PMSo, that means that I can't create it by my own?

Arkadii Ivanov
12/29/2021, 3:02 PMProbably I don't understand the use case. I'm not aware of such an example, but it should be relatively easy. If I understand correctly, you will need to implement the MVICore Lifecycle interface, and pass Essenty's Lifecycle via constructor. Then inside the subscribe method you have to subscribe/unsubscribe from the Essenty Lifecycle.

12/29/2021, 3:10 PMNope. Sorry for not being clear enough
I want to catch a specific event that will start my essenty lifecycle. Then, when I catch another event, I will end my Essenty lifecycle.
As an example, I want to display a specific dialog when the lifecycle starts and hide the dialog when the lifecycle ends.
the MVICore reference was just to explain what I want: start and end lifecycle

12/29/2021, 3:12 PMThanks for the clarification, now it is more clear. Do you have a source of the events already?
a
Artyom Bambalov
12/29/2021, 3:13 PMYes, I do
a
Arkadii Ivanov
12/29/2021, 3:14 PMAlright. Then I still don't have any examples. But you should try LifecycleRegistry. Then you can subscribe to the source of events and call lifecycle.resume() and lifecycle.destroy() accordingly.

12/29/2021, 3:17 PMOh, thanks. I think that it will be great to mention this moment in documentation
a
Arkadii Ivanov
12/29/2021, 3:17 PMI believe it is mentioned in Essenty's readme: https://github.com/arkivanov/Essenty#using-the-lifecycleregistry-manually
