KDB

Kotlin Databind library was made as an alternative to the Android Databind Library, this was constructed to be used with LiveData, so no changes to your ViewModel/Presenter is required to use this.

This library was made using extension function, since there is no code generation, no more hunting through a log to find a error in a 1000 errors log.

There are 4 libaries that you can add to your project

Migrating from 1.0.0 to 2.0.0

⚠️

Due to Jcenter shutdown, the KDB project's maven group id was previously com.psato.kdbcore and is now dev.kdblib. Please check your configuration as shown below.

// Add Maven Central to your repositories if needed
repositories {
    mavenCentral()    
}

and to listem to update on the LiveData on your ViewModel implement the interface LiveDataUpdateListener

class QueryViewModelArc
constructor(private val searchShows: SearchShows) : 
    ViewModel(), LiveDataUpdateListener {
