LoaderManagerKt

@MainThread
public static final void <D extends Object> initLoader(
    @NonNull LoaderManager receiver,
    int id,
    @NonNull Loader<@NonNull D> loader,
    @NonNull Function0<Unit> onLoaderReset,
    @NonNull Function1<@NonNull data, Unit> onLoadFinished
)

Ensures a loader is initialized and active. If the loader doesn't already exist, the given loader is used and (if the activity/fragment is currently started) starts the loader. Otherwise the last created loader is re-used and loader is ignored.

In either case, the given onLoaderReset and onLoadFinished methods will be associated with the loader, and will be called as the loader state changes. If at the point of call the caller is in its started state, and the requested loader already exists and has generated its data, then callback onLoadFinished will be called immediately (inside of this function), so you must be prepared for this to happen.

LoaderManager.getInstance(this).initLoader(LOADER_ID, MyLoader()) { data ->
  // Handle onLoadFinished
}

// Or, if you need an onLoaderReset callback:
LoaderManager.getInstance(this).initLoader(LOADER_ID, MyLoader(), {
  // Handle onLoaderReset
}) { data ->
  // Handle onLoadFinished
}

@MainThread
public static final void <D extends Object> restartLoader(
    @NonNull LoaderManager receiver,
    int id,
    @NonNull Loader<@NonNull D> loader,
    @NonNull Function0<Unit> onLoaderReset,
    @NonNull Function1<@NonNull data, Unit> onLoadFinished
)

Starts a new or restarts an existing Loader in this manager, registers the given onLoaderReset and onLoadFinished methods to it, and (if the activity/fragment is currently started) starts loading it. If a loader with the same id has previously been started it will automatically be destroyed when the new loader completes its work.

LoaderManager.getInstance(this).restartLoader(LOADER_ID, MyLoader()) { data ->
  // Handle onLoadFinished
}

// Or, if you need an onLoaderReset callback:
LoaderManager.getInstance(this).restartLoader(LOADER_ID, MyLoader(), {
  // Handle onLoaderReset
}) { data ->
  // Handle onLoadFinished
}
