What happened?

Hello there

I can't get a unique datastore per widget with Glance beta01. In your samples, there is a mention to it, but could you clarify how to inject the key in the datastore name ?

Question asked on SO (feel free to close this issue) : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76563756/android-datastore-how-to-create-it-with-a-dynamic-filename/76564053

Thanks

From https://github.com/android/platform-samples/blob/main/samples/user-interface/appwidgets/src/main/java/com/example/platform/ui/appwidgets/glance/weather/WeatherInfoStateDefinition.kt :

/**
 * Use the same file name regardless of the widget instance to share data between them
 *
 * ====>>>>>If you need different state/data for each instance, create a store using the provided fileKey<<<<<<=====
 */
private val Context.datastore by dataStore(DATA_STORE_FILENAME, WeatherInfoSerializer)

override suspend fun getDataStore(
    context: Context,
    fileKey: String
): DataStore<SingleWidgetInfo> {
    return context.datastore // How to use fileKey while creating the datastore ?
}

With the new glance release the concept of glance state is no needed anymore you should use recomposition and/or standard storage patterns with data store, DB or others
