Continuous

class Continuous<T : Any>(val load: suspend (continuation: String?) -> Page<T>) : PagedData<T>

A class representing a continuous page of data.

This class is used to load data in chunks. It takes a function that loads a page of data, with the given continuation token and returns a Page with the next continuation token.

If next continuation token is null, it means there is no more data to load. The initial call to load will have a null continuation token.

Example for using with an API that uses Strings as continuation tokens:

val data = PagedData.Continuous { continuation ->
  val (tracks, nextCont) = api.loadTracks(continuation)
  Page(tracks, nextCont)
}

Example for using with an API that uses Integers as continuation tokens:

val totalTracks = api.getTotalTracks()
val data = PagedData.Continuous { continuation ->
   val contInt = continuation?.toIntOrNull() ?: 0
   val tracks = api.loadTracks(contInt)
   val nextContinuation = contInt + 10
   if (nextContinuation >= totalTracks) Page(tracks, null)
   else Page(tracks, nextContinuation)
}
