Parse SDK Android Coroutines

Kotlin coroutines support for Parse Android

Dependency

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(...).suspendFind()
    // get cats without callback
}

We use a coroutine builder because suspendFind() 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@example.com")
    }.also {
        suspendSignUp()
    }
}

Login:

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

Parse Object

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

Task Wrapper

Coroutine support can be provided as an extension method on any Task. For example:

suspend fun anonymousLogin() {
    try {
        val user = ParseAnonymousUtils.logInInBackground().suspendGet()
        Timber.d("Logged in with user ${user.objectId}")
    } catch (e: ParseException) {
        Timber.e(e)
    }
}

Tasks with a Void results, ie. Task<Void> can be made into a Completable. For example:

suspend fun updateUserLastLogIn() {
    val user = ParseUser.getCurrentUser()
    user.put("lastLoggedIn", System.currentTimeMillis())
    try {
        user.saveInBackground().suspendRun()
        Timber.d("user saved")
    } catch (e: ParseException) {
        Timber.e(it)
    }
}

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.
