Tracking issue for adding network + paging + database
This is the main issue to track progress on adding the following:
- [x] Network (#206)
- [x] Retrofit (#191)
- [x] Paging (#6)
- [ ] Database (#6)
Plan is to implement these in stages roughly in the order above.
Could you please take into consideration a volatile database network source ?
@RoarGronmo can you clarify? Do you mean an unstable network, using a network as the data source (with ever-changing data), or something else?
A networked database source which changes often, like a botaniq database, or a seed bank, where other withdraws or inserts data or values several times per days, hour or minutes. How is the best way to pull data from the database, perhaps by a WorkManager doWork() implementation maybe? The pity is that WorkManager minimum time is 15 minutes (!), what trick should we use to pull data more often ?
You could as a "plugin" project couple androidthings volatile project simulating growth of the plants so you can demonstrate a 3. datasource to the repositories.
