Mohit Sarveiya Migrating to Kotlin State & Shared Flows @heyitsmohit
Migrating to Kotlin State & Shared Flows • State &
Shared Flow APIs • Migrating from broadcast channels • Flow Sharing Strategies • Manage Backpressure
Cold vs Hot Flows
What is a cold stream? • Flow completes • Triggers
same code for every new subscriber
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { // 2, 3, 4 }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... } flow.collect { ... }
Cold Flows val flow = flowOf(1, 2, 3) .map
{ it + 1 } flow.collect { ... } flow.collect { // 2, 3, 4 }
What is a hot stream? • Never completes normally •
Exists independently of subscribers.
Hot Streams State Flow Shared Flow
State Flow • Different ways to create state flows •
Emit, collect • Conflation

Cash App - Molecule
Molecule Purpose Build a StateFlow using Jetpack Compose
Approach View Molecule Presenter (Composable) Events
Presenter @Composable fun Presenter(eventFlow: Flow<Event>): UiState { val
event by eventFlow.collectAsState(null) return if (event = = null) { UiState.Loading } else { UiState.Data(…) } }
Presenter @Composable fun Presenter(eventFlow: Flow<Event>): UiState { val
event by eventFlow.collectAsState(null) return if (event = = null) { UiState.Loading } else { UiState.Data(…) } }
Presenter @Composable fun Presenter(eventFlow: Flow<Event>): UiState { val
event by eventFlow.collectAsState(null) return if (event = = null) { UiState.Loading } else { UiState.Data(…) } }
Setup Molecule Presenter (Composable)
Setup Molecule Presenter (Composable) StateFlow
Launching Molecule val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Main) val models: StateFlow<UsersModel> =
scope.launchMolecule { userPresenter(postsFlow, likesFlow) }
Launching Molecule val flow: StateFlow<UiState> = scope.launchMolecule { presenter(eventFlow) }
Setup View Molecule
Setup View View Model
View Model class MyViewModel: ViewModel() { val stateFlow
= moleculeScope.launchMolecule { val event by eventFlow.collectAsState(null) return if (event == null) { UiState.Loading } else { UiState.Success(…) } }

Creating State & Shared Flows • shareIn • stateIn
Sharing Policies • While Subscribed • Eagerly • Lazily
Sharing Policies flow.shareIn( )
Sharing Policies flow.shareIn( externalScope, )
Sharing Policies flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1, )
Sharing Policies flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1, started = SharingStarted.WhileSubscribed()
)
Sharing Policies val sharedFlow = flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1,
started = SharingStarted.WhileSubscribed() )
Properties • Active as long as external scope is alive
• Remains as long as there are collectors.
Properties Active as long as external scope is alive externalScope.launch
{ sharedFlow.collect { } }
flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1, started = SharingStarted.WhileSubscribed() ) Properties
Active as long as external scope is alive
Properties Active as long as external scope is alive externalScope.cancel()
externalScope.launch { sharedFlow.collect { } }
Properties Active as long as external scope is alive externalScope.cancel()
externalScope.launch { sharedFlow.collect { } } Complete Exceptionally
Properties Active as long as there are collectors.
Properties Active as long as there are collectors. val sharedFlow
= flow.onCompletion { }.shareIn(…)
Properties Active as long as there are collectors. val sharedFlow
= flow.onCompletion { }.shareIn(…) val job = launch { sharedFlow.onCompletion { }.collect { } }
Properties Active as long as there are collectors. val sharedFlow

Properties • Active as long as external scope is alive
• Active as long as there are collectors.
Sharing Policies • While Subscribed • Eagerly • Lazily
Eagerly flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1, started = SharingStarted.Eagerly() )
Eagerly Start producer eagerly flow .onStart { println("ON START") }
.shareIn( ... started = SharingStarted.Eagerly)
Eagerly Start producer eagerly flow .onStart { println("ON START") }
.shareIn( ... started = SharingStarted.Eagerly)
Eagerly Start producer eagerly flow .onStart { println("ON START") }
.shareIn( ... started = SharingStarted.Eagerly) // ON START
Eagerly Start producer eagerly
Sharing Policies • While Subscribed • Eagerly • Lazily
Lazily Start sharing after the first subscriber appears
Lazily flow.shareIn( externalScope, replay = 1, started = SharingStarted.Lazily )
Lazily flow .onStart { println("ON START") } .shareIn(…,started = SharingStarted.Lazily)
Lazily flow .onStart { println("ON START") } .shareIn(…,started = SharingStarted.Lazily)
launch { sharedFlow.collect { } }
Lazily flow .onStart { println("ON START") } .shareIn(…,started = SharingStarted.Lazily)
launch { sharedFlow.collect { } } // ON START
Lazily Start sharing after the first subscriber appears
Sharing Policies • While Subscribed • Active while there are
active subscribers. • Eagerly • Start producer eagerly and never stop • Lazily • Start after the first subscriber appears and never stop
