coroutines

Parse SDK Android Coroutines

Kotlin coroutines support for Parse Android

Setup

Installation

After including JitPack:

dependencies {
    implementation "com.github.parse-community.Parse-SDK-Android:coroutines:latest.version.here"
}

Use Parse Coroutines

ParseQuery

Now we can call a parse query using a synchronous style, this is possible when we use coroutines. We need to use a regular coroutine builder:

launch { // Coroutine builder
    val cat = ParseQuery.getQuery(...).find()
    // get cats without callback
}

We use a coroutine builder because find() is a suspend function.

We can also, use a function like a coroutine builder, it will be provider us a flexibility call our query without any extensions function.

launchQuery(query) {
	// doing operations like find, get, first and count
}

It uses a a regular coroutine builder launch and pass as receiver a `ParseQueryOperation``

ParseCloud

We can call cloud function inline:

launch { // Coroutine builder
   val catThumb = callCloudFunction("getThumbnail", mapOf("url" to "https://cat.jpg"))
   // get cats without callback
}

ParseUser

SignUp:

launch { // Coroutine builder
    user = ParseUser().apply {
        setUsername("my name")
        setPassword("my pass")
        setEmail("[email protected]")
    }.also {
        signUp()
    }
}

Login:

launch { // Coroutine builder
    val user = parseLogIn("username", "password")
}

Parse Object

We can save, pinning and fetch parse objects use coroutines as well.

Contributing

When contributing to the coroutines module, please first consider if the extension function you are wanting to add would potentially be better suited in the main parse module. If it is something specific to Kotlin users or only useful in a Kotlin project, feel free to make a PR adding it to this module. Otherwise, consider adding the addition to the parse module itself, so that it is still usable in Java.
