Right Place To Offer Or Send Channel In Mvi Pattern

I load data in recycleView in advance. In order to do that I have following code in onCreate() of Activity : override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onCr

Solution 1:

The only solution that I found is moving fetchUser method and another _state as MutableStateFlow to Repository layer and observeForever it in Repository for local unit test, as a result I can send or offer userIntent in init block off ViewModel.

I will have following _state in ViewModel :

val userIntent = Channel<MainIntent>(Channel.UNLIMITED)
    privateval _state = repository.state
    val state: StateFlow<MainState>
        get() = _state
