Androidx DataStore generated support

[yschimke]

Is there any plans for integration with Androidx DataStore? Or does Androidx provide this somewhere?

There are some nuances with https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/frameworks/support/+/androidx-main:datastore/datastore-core-okio/src/commonMain/kotlin/androidx/datastore/core/okio/OkioSerializer.kt?q=OkioSerializer

That would be good to handle once. Something like

fun <T: Message<T, Nothing>> ProtoAdapter<T>.toOkioSerializer(): OkioSerializer<T> {
    return object : OkioSerializer<T> {
        override val defaultValue: T = this@toOkioSerializer.decode(ByteString.EMPTY)

        override suspend fun readFrom(source: BufferedSource): T {
            try {
                return this@toOkioSerializer.decode(source)
            } catch (exception: IOException) {
                throw CorruptionException("Cannot read UserFavouriteGames proto.", exception)
            }
        }

        override suspend fun writeTo(t: T, sink: BufferedSink) {
            sink.write(t.encode())
        }
    }
}
