Suggestion needed for using Hilt in library modules #1991
Description
In my sample app I have created a separate library module called core. In the core module I am using network and db related dependencies like OkHttp, Retrofit and Room. Hence to access these instances as singleton, I declared them in the hilt module.
import com.mobile.app.core.BuildConfig
import com.mobile.app.core.remote.RemoteService
import com.mobile.app.core.remote.RemoteServiceInterceptor
import dagger.Module
import dagger.Provides
import dagger.hilt.InstallIn
import dagger.hilt.android.components.ApplicationComponent
import okhttp3.OkHttpClient
import okhttp3.logging.HttpLoggingInterceptor
import retrofit2.Retrofit
import retrofit2.converter.gson.GsonConverterFactory
import javax.inject.Singleton
@Module
@InstallIn(ApplicationComponent::class)
object CoreModule {
@Provides
fun provideOkHttpClient(): OkHttpClient {
return OkHttpClient
.Builder()
.addInterceptor(RemoteServiceInterceptor())
.addInterceptor(HttpLoggingInterceptor().apply {
level =
if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) HttpLoggingInterceptor.Level.BODY
else
HttpLoggingInterceptor.Level.NONE
}).build()
}
@Provides
@Singleton
fun provideRetrofit(okHttpClient: OkHttpClient): Retrofit =
Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com")
.client(okHttpClient)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build()
@Provides
@Singleton
fun provideRemoteService(retrofit: Retrofit): RemoteService =
retrofit.create(RemoteService::class.java)
}In my app module I have my application class as mentioned below:
import android.app.Application
import dagger.hilt.android.HiltAndroidApp
@HiltAndroidApp
class MyApp : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
}
}My app build.gradle also implements core module:
dependencies {
implementation project(path: ':core')
}But when I build my project, it throws error as:
Task :app:kaptDebugKotlin
error: cannot access OkHttpClient
class file for okhttp3.OkHttpClient not found
Consult the following stack trace for details.
cannot access OkHttpClient
I can overcome this error only if I change implementation to api for OkHttp client dependency which is delcared in the core module build.gradle. Is there anything I'm missing here.
Want I am trying to achieve is to have separate library modules for network service, local storage and firebase. So that I can implement this to app module as needed. Hence I started declaring Hilt module in each of these library modules like NetworkModule, StorageModule, FirebaseModule, etc. But I couldn't figure this out.
