If I have the following class, how can I save a list of it with Proto DataStore?
data class Tag(
val id: int,
val name: String
)
All guides that I saw were teaching how to save only a single object. Is it possible to have a list of it?
You should consider storing list of content in Room, Even proto-datastore isnt a proper solution to store complex stuff,
If you still want then, I will suggest you to restrict the data stored to 10-15 items
to the code --->
list
type for Javamessage Student {
string id = 1;
string name = 2;
}
message ClassRoom {
string teacher = 1;
repeated Student students = 2; // repeated => list
}
dataStore.updateData { store ->
store.toBuilder()
.clearStudents() // clear previous list
.setAllStudents(students)// add the new list
.build()
}
if you want example checkout my sample app, read the data/domain layer https://github.com/ch8n/Jetpack-compose-thatsMine
