Other changes:

AppCtx

The consume { … } utility function from the splitties.init package has been deprecated. Replace it with true.also { _ -> … } or false.also { _ -> … }.

Arch Lifecycle

  • New mapNotNull, switchMap and switchMapNotNull extension functions for LiveData.
  • activityScope and fragmentScope extension functions to get a ViewModel now accept an optional
    lambda (which creates a ViewModelProvider under the hood. This allows to pass arguments to your ViewModel when it's first created.
  • observe and observeNotNull now return the created Observer so it can be unregistered manually later if needed.

Arch Room

  • The new inTransaction { … } extension function for RoomDatabases does the same as transaction { … } but also returns the value of the last expression of the lambda.
  • New onCreate { … } and onOpen { … } extension functions for RoomDatabase.Builder.

Bundle

  • BundleHelper has been renamed to BundleSpec, but a typealias keeps the source compatibility. However, there's no binary compatibility, which means you'll need to recompile any library using it.
  • BundleSpec and the methods relying on it can now be used safely on any thread!

Material Lists

Allow disabling default icon tint on list items with optional constructor parameter.

Preferences

A new experimental SuspendPrefsAccessor for coroutines users allows you to ensure you can't load the preferences (which does I/O) on the UI thread.

Resources

The str extension functions formatArgs now accept null arguments.

View DSL

The higher order function add has been deprecated because it went in the way of promoting a view to a property easily.

View DSL AppCompat styles

Added flatButton, imgActionButton and largeProgressBar.

View DSL ConstraintLayout

Add baselineToBaselineOf(…) extension function for ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams.

View DSL IDE Preview

UiPreView injects a valid value into appCtx so your Uis can depend on it (probably indirectly) without breaking preview!

Views

  • New Gravity flags aliases (e.g. gravityStartCenter instead of Gravity.START or Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL).
  • Change case of imageBitMap to imageBitmap to make it more consistent with the class name Bitmap

Views AppCompat

tooltipTxt now accepts null to remove any tooltip previously set on the view.

root project's build.gradle file to 2.0.0-alpha2 as shown in this snippet:

allProjects {
    ext {
        splitties_version = '2.0.0-alpha2'
    }
}
