Backend Data Interchange Example

[jairofloress]

Hello! First of all, thank you all the team for the excellent job. Being an old android wannabe developer, my path has been java, javascript (you know, transpiling into an app), React Native, then I fell in love with flutter, but now I'm getting divorced because of compose. Compose is the best of all worlds, flutter simplicity plus kotlin(java) power, indeed a nice work!. In NowInAndroid, every piece is stated the correct way it should be, but you need to have serious knowhow and patience to get the full picture, protoc use or secrets as an example. I had protoc tied to golang data interchange only, but now I'm widening my perspective.

I've been immersed last months in my own app NowInAndroid based and there is not turning back to flutter, rip the king, long live the king.
But, as I'm coming to an end, I have two requests base on this answer:
Can you provide us the backend data structure where that "after" field is included?
and, can you provide us with an example using data of the changelists way for updating the room db?

Again, thank you for the fine work.

Jairo.

    @GET(value = "changelists/topics")
    suspend fun getTopicChangeList(
        @Query("after") after: Int?,
    ): List<NetworkChangeList>

    @GET(value = "changelists/newsresources")
    suspend fun getNewsResourcesChangeList(
        @Query("after") after: Int?,
    ): List<NetworkChangeList>

@Serializable
data class NetworkChangeList(
    /**
     * The id of the model that was changed
     */
    val id: String,
    /**
     * Unique consecutive, monotonically increasing version number in the collection describing
     * the relative point of change between models in the collection
     */
    val changeListVersion: Int,
    /**
     * Summarizes the update to the model; whether it was deleted or updated.
     * Updates include creations.
     */
    val isDelete: Boolean,
