A ContextAware class is associated with a Context sometime after the class is instantiated. By adding a OnContextAvailableListener, you can receive a callback for that event.

Classes implementing ContextAware are strongly recommended to also implement androidx.lifecycle.LifecycleOwner for providing a more general purpose API for listening for creation and destruction events.

<R : Any?> ContextAware.withContextAvailable(
    crossinline onContextAvailable: (Context) -> R
)

Run onContextAvailable when the Context becomes available and resume with the result.

Public functions

addOnContextAvailableListener

Added in 1.2.0
fun addOnContextAvailableListener(listener: OnContextAvailableListener): Unit

Add a new OnContextAvailableListener for receiving a callback for when this class is associated with a android.content.Context.

Listeners are triggered in the order they are added when added before the Context is available. Listeners added after the context has been made available will have the Context synchronously delivered to them as part of this call.

Parameters
listener: OnContextAvailableListener

The listener that should be added.

peekAvailableContext

Added in 1.2.0
fun peekAvailableContext(): Context?

Get the Context if it is currently available. If this returns null, you can use addOnContextAvailableListener to receive a callback for when it available.

Returns
Context?

the Context if it is currently available.

removeOnContextAvailableListener

Added in 1.2.0

Extension functions

withContextAvailable

suspend inline fun <R : Any?> ContextAware.withContextAvailable(
    crossinline onContextAvailable: (Context) -> R
): R

Run onContextAvailable when the Context becomes available and resume with the result.

If the Context is already available, onContextAvailable will be synchronously called on the current coroutine context. Otherwise, onContextAvailable will be called on the UI thread immediately when the Context becomes available.
