Most Koin videos I've seen were like "here I show you a project with Dagger and migrate to Koin" or "You add this, this and this and voila, it works". But your video was exactly what a tutorial must be: explaining things step by step and made me understand it. Thank you!

@@_th3j4ck4l You will be surprised how many times I saw these "very simple test cases" not implemented and caused prod bugs. Especially after 2 years and 4 dev changes. This is why I prefer compile time over run time. I also need to say that Dagger series was kinda hard to use compared to Koin but I feel using Hilt almost easy as Koin.

@whoknows3606 2 жыл бұрын

@@_th3j4ck4l There are always issues. This is why I don't want to introduce another possible problem. Pipelines, health checks, security checks fails time to time and they might be ignored to deliver prod on time. (They always say they will see at regression/sanity checks if there is a problem) On the one hand, there are tests that I need to trust, and on the other hand, the direct error I will get while doing development. For me it is a clear choice. Anyway, I'm happy that there is more than one DI library. So we can use the library that suits us best.

When you are creating a Library, we can't use HILT for dependency injection as we can't force the consumer to integrate HILT in their project. I believe then KOIN is life saviour.

Koin isn't dependency injection actually. It's a service locator. The end result is pretty much the same, both provide dependency, however they do it differently and hilt does it much faster, because it's done at compile time. In other words Koin has no build time impact, but has a runtime one. The opposite is true for hilt.

@anshumandhal 2 жыл бұрын

Developers who use KMM cannot use Dagger hilt since it's a Java based library. Koin on the other hand is written entirely in Kotlin. Like other libraries it's just a tool. Not every job requires the same tools to get the work done.

@houssemzaier 2 жыл бұрын

Koin is not recommended for any kind of serious programming, it is a service locator so you can say it's based on an anti pattern solution. Just use Hilt or manual DI for KMM. Remember that you will have a very big technical debt when you attach your code to a DI library. This is something that will be seen in every layer from your app, and almost every class. So be a wise person if you care about the code that you are providing.

Philipp - I am trying to use mockito to mock an object that is passed as an argument to the constructor of myViewModel(val dice:Dice). within the Dice class I just have a single method called roll() that just returns a random number between 1..6. It is not It is not returning 3? This is how my instrumentation setup: @Before fun init(){ stopKoin() diceMock = mock(Dice::class.java) `when`(diceMock.roll()).thenReturn(3) val testModule = module { single { diceMock } viewModel{ DiceViewModel(diceMock) } } startKoin{ // loadKoinModules(testModule) modules(testModule) } } @Test fun roll_displaysNumber() { `when`(diceMock.roll()).thenReturn(3) onView(withId(R.id.button)).perform(click()) onView(withId(R.id.textView)).check(matches(isDisplayed())) }
