Retrofit — Effective error handling with Kotlin Coroutine and Result API
C

Unless you’re a Multimillion or a Billion dollar company, you probably don’t have a multimillion-dollar ad budget or professional Spinners. Your product needs to stand out on its own merits like App Quality, Performance, UI design, and User Experience. Most companies don't care about you, your product, and your vision or dreams. They don't give a damn about either their work helped you to get more business, revenue, users, or solving a problem. That's where CANOPAS comes into the picture. Whether you have a GREAT IDEA and you want to turn it into a DIGITAL PRODUCT. OR You need a team that can turn your NIGHTMARES into SWEET DREAMS again by improving your existing product. We help Entrepreneurs, startups, and small companies to bring their IDEA to LIFE by developing digital products for their business. We prefer using Agile and Scrum principles in project management for flexibility and rapid review cycles. We are not bound by technology. We will learn new technology if it significantly improves the performance of your app. We will solve your tech-related problems even though we are not THE EXPERT in it. And we've done it multiple times in the last 7 years. In the last seven years, we helped... A STARTUP to expand its users from 2500 to over 100000 by developing mobile apps for them. An enterprise client to redevelop their app that has 1M+ monthly paid users and 10M+ app downloads. Another enterprise client(5M+ app downloads in each store) to fix bugs and broken parts in the app and as a result, they had over 98% crash-free users. We offer a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE if you don't like our work. No questions asked. Visit : https://canopas.com/blog

Error handling is important, but if it obscures logic, it’s wrong.

What are retrofit call adapters used for?

How does CallAdapter work?

In this article, you will learn how can we do effective error handling with Kotlin Coroutine and Result API

Custom callAdapter in retrofit allows us to filter out various API error responses at a centralized level which reduces boilerplate code effectively. We will create our own Retrofit callAdapter to handle the API call Success and Error states.

We will use Kotlin Result API consistently in the whole application as a response of API calls.

You can find the full code of this project on github.
