It's parellel dispatch and you can even use it for async mapper. You can make the code shorter if you want: val firstNames = userIds.map { userId -> async { getFirstName(userId) } }.awaitAll()
@pradiptapriya75462 жыл бұрын
Hi, do you mind answering some of my questions regarding this async? When using async and awaitAll() to get data, is there a chance that the order of name lists retrieved will be changing every time the operation is done? Because I thought since it's being done parallel, there's a time when some data in API are obtained faster than others, making the order of the list changing every time based on how the network performance is right? Or the list will be always the same?

Very helpful explanations! At 4:07, with what keystrokes did you move the whole for loop up together? Ah, looks like Shift+Cmd+Up on Mac. Very useful! (Unfortunately, the video title is misleading clickbait. These are not mistakes that "nobody tells you about." Making your suspend functions main-safe, for example, is a principle thoroughly discussed in Android documentation about coroutines.) On mistake #5, the point is valid that the lifecycleScope is too short-lived for the purpose of posting data to an API, and using the viewModelScope is an improvement. But the ViewModel too can be destroyed (for example if the user navigates to another activity) while data is being posted to the API, and that is not what the user wants either. Android docs recommend that "business-oriented operations," such as uploading users' data, should survive even process death. For that, WorkManager is recommended.

@it-64112 жыл бұрын
Pay attention, that when you use .awaitAll() function in the list of deferred items and if any of these will throw exception, you'll get exception for the whole operation. So, you should use .awaitAll() only in case, when you except full success of all async calls. In other case to handle exceptions for specific items, you can use list.map { it.await() } and try/catch block.

Mistake 4. If you make this suspending function return coroutineScope ( The suspend function you also used for mistake 2) or even withContext. Then the cancellation exception will be actually propagated to the outer scopes even if you explicitly catch in inside riskyTask e.g suspend fun riskyTask() = withContext() {}

One thing worth mentioning for Mistake1 is the fact that coroutineScope will suspend until all the async calls finish. Therefore reading the result code like this could be confusing since you aren't really waiting for anything outside of the coroutineScope block.

Why it necessary to call async function inside coroutine scope? 🤔 We can call a suspend function in other suspend function right? Or we call coroutine scope so that the function inside coroutine scope works independently?

Usually your coroutines code runs sequentially. We use async so that we can immediately loop and call async again for the new iteration. This way you start all jobs initially and then wait for all of them to finish with "awaitAll".

Hi @Philipp Lackner for the great video! However I believe, that there is "mistake" in mistake #3. Right now networkCall() is thread-safe since it's using delay(), which is non-blocking operation. Thus I will not block underlying thread/dispatcher. Perhaps If you would like to demo blocking IO call - you can use Thread.sleep(2000) instead.

And in example 1 there is an interesting moment: Since we use coroutineScope{}, we dont need to await all deffered elements, because, With the rules of "Structured Concurrency", the Deffered, which is being launched under the hood in coroutineScope{} will not be completed until all children get completed, so this call of coroutineScope will wait until all async{} will give us the result. After this, we can use non-suspend method getCompleted() to just collect values.

You're right that suspend functions should not be exposed to the UI and I'm with you 200%, but have you seen Google's paging library? that thing not only uses suspend functions to submit data to the adapters, but it also seems to run load queries on the UI by passing the paging source to the list's adapter, it's actually the only library that I promised that I will never use

@@PhilippLackner I will test it out but I don't think it does it on the view model, you post a paging source (which in effect is an object that contains suspending functions to load the data) to your paging adapter through the fragment or activity's lifecycle scope, so it's pretty much impossible to run something on viewmodelscope, though I guess you could create the adapter on viewmodel and let the observer attach it to the paged list, but adapters in the view model are a bitch to unit test without robolectric
