Parameters
noinline factory: () -> T

A function which will create a new instance of T. This function is NOT guaranteed to be called in place.

update: @DisallowComposableCalls Updater<T>.() -> Unit

A function to perform updates on the node. This will run every time emit is executed. This function is called in place and will be inlined.

noinline skippableUpdate: @Composable SkippableUpdater<T>.() -> Unit

A function to perform updates on the node. Unlike update, this function is Composable and will therefore be skipped unless it has been invalidated by some other mechanism. This can be useful to perform expensive calculations for updating the node where the calculations are likely to have the same inputs over time, so the function's execution can be skipped.

content: @Composable () -> Unit

the composable content that will emit the "children" of this node.

Composition

fun Composition(applier: Applier<*>, parent: CompositionContext): Composition

This method is the way to initiate a composition. parent can be

  • provided to make the composition behave as a sub-composition of the parent. If composition does

  • not have a parent, Recomposer instance should be provided.

It is important to call Composition.dispose when composition is no longer needed in order to release resources.

ControlledComposition

@TestOnly
fun ControlledComposition(applier: Applier<*>, parent: CompositionContext): ControlledComposition

This method is a way to initiate a composition. Optionally, a parent can be provided to make the composition behave as a sub-composition of the parent or a Recomposer can be provided.

A controlled composition allows direct control of the composition instead of it being controlled by the Recomposer passed ot the root composition.

It is important to call Composition.dispose this composer is no longer needed in order to release resources.

    recomposeCoroutineContext: CoroutineContext
): ControlledComposition

DisposableEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun DisposableEffect(effect: DisposableEffectScope.() -> DisposableEffectResult): Unit

A side effect of composition that must be reversed or cleaned up if the DisposableEffect leaves the composition.

It is an error to call DisposableEffect without at least one key parameter.

DisposableEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun DisposableEffect(key1: Any?, effect: DisposableEffectScope.() -> DisposableEffectResult): Unit

A side effect of composition that must run for any new unique value of key1 and must be reversed or cleaned up if key1 changes or if the DisposableEffect leaves the composition.

A DisposableEffect's key is a value that defines the identity of the DisposableEffect. If a key changes, the DisposableEffect must dispose its current effect and reset by calling effect again. Examples of keys include:

  • Observable objects that the effect subscribes to

  • Unique request parameters to an operation that must cancel and retry if those parameters change

DisposableEffect may be used to initialize or subscribe to a key and reinitialize when a different key is provided, performing cleanup for the old operation before initializing the new. For example:

import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable
import androidx.compose.runtime.DisposableEffect
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember

@Composable
fun UserProfile(userRepository: UserRepository, userRequest: UserDataRequest) {
    var userDataState by remember { mutableStateOf<UserDataState>(UserDataState.Loading) }

    // If either the repository or request change, we must cancel our old data fetch
    // and begin a new data fetch. We will cancel the current data fetch if UserProfile
    // leaves the composition.
    DisposableEffect(userRepository, userRequest) {
        val requestDisposable =
            userRepository.fetchUserData(
                userRequest,
                onSuccess = { response -> userDataState = UserDataState.UserData(response) },
                onError = { throwable ->
                    userDataState = UserDataState.Error(throwable.message)
                }
            )

        onDispose { requestDisposable.dispose() }
    }

    // ...
}

A DisposableEffect must include an onDispose clause as the final statement in its effect block. If your operation does not require disposal it might be a SideEffect instead, or a LaunchedEffect if it launches a coroutine that should be managed by the composition.

There is guaranteed to be one call to dispose for every call to effect. Both effect and dispose will always be run on the composition's apply dispatcher and appliers are never run concurrent with themselves, one another, applying changes to the composition tree, or running RememberObserver event callbacks.

DisposableEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun DisposableEffect(vararg keys: Any?, effect: DisposableEffectScope.() -> DisposableEffectResult): Unit

A side effect of composition that must run for any new unique value of keys and must be reversed or cleaned up if any keys change or if the DisposableEffect leaves the composition.

A DisposableEffect's key is a value that defines the identity of the DisposableEffect. If a key changes, the DisposableEffect must dispose its current effect and reset by calling effect again. Examples of keys include:

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun DisposableEffect(key1: Any?, key2: Any?, effect: DisposableEffectScope.() -> DisposableEffectResult): Unit

                onSuccess = { response -> userDataState = UserDataState.UserData(response) },
                onError = { throwable ->
                    userDataState = UserDataState.Error(throwable.message)
                }
            )

        onDispose { requestDisposable.dispose() }
    }

    // ...
}

A DisposableEffect must include an onDispose clause as the final statement in its effect block. If your operation does not require disposal it might be a SideEffect instead, or a LaunchedEffect if it launches a coroutine that should be managed by the composition.

There is guaranteed to be one call to dispose for every call to effect. Both effect and dispose will always be run on the composition's apply dispatcher and appliers are never run concurrent with themselves, one another, applying changes to the composition tree, or running RememberObserver event callbacks.

LaunchedEffect

@Composable
fun LaunchedEffect(block: suspend CoroutineScope.() -> Unit): Unit

When LaunchedEffect enters the composition it will launch block into the composition's CoroutineContext. The coroutine will be cancelled when the LaunchedEffect leaves the composition.

It is an error to call LaunchedEffect without at least one key parameter.

LaunchedEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun LaunchedEffect(key1: Any?, block: suspend CoroutineScope.() -> Unit): Unit

When LaunchedEffect enters the composition it will launch block into the composition's CoroutineContext. The coroutine will be cancelled and re-launched when LaunchedEffect is recomposed with a different key1. The coroutine will be cancelled when the LaunchedEffect leaves the composition.

This function should not be used to (re-)launch ongoing tasks in response to callback events by way of storing callback data in MutableState passed to key1. Instead, see rememberCoroutineScope to obtain a CoroutineScope that may be used to launch ongoing jobs scoped to the composition in response to event callbacks.

LaunchedEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun LaunchedEffect(vararg keys: Any?, block: suspend CoroutineScope.() -> Unit): Unit

When LaunchedEffect enters the composition it will launch block into the composition's CoroutineContext. The coroutine will be cancelled and re-launched when LaunchedEffect is recomposed with any different keys. The coroutine will be cancelled when the LaunchedEffect leaves the composition.

This function should not be used to (re-)launch ongoing tasks in response to callback events by way of storing callback data in MutableState passed to key. Instead, see rememberCoroutineScope to obtain a CoroutineScope that may be used to launch ongoing jobs scoped to the composition in response to event callbacks.

LaunchedEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun LaunchedEffect(key1: Any?, key2: Any?, block: suspend CoroutineScope.() -> Unit): Unit

When LaunchedEffect enters the composition it will launch block into the composition's CoroutineContext. The coroutine will be cancelled and re-launched when LaunchedEffect is recomposed with a different key1 or key2. The coroutine will be cancelled when the LaunchedEffect leaves the composition.

This function should not be used to (re-)launch ongoing tasks in response to callback events by way of storing callback data in MutableState passed to key. Instead, see rememberCoroutineScope to obtain a CoroutineScope that may be used to launch ongoing jobs scoped to the composition in response to event callbacks.

LaunchedEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
fun LaunchedEffect(key1: Any?, key2: Any?, key3: Any?, block: suspend CoroutineScope.() -> Unit): Unit

When LaunchedEffect enters the composition it will launch block into the composition's CoroutineContext. The coroutine will be cancelled and re-launched when LaunchedEffect is recomposed with a different key1, key2 or key3. The coroutine will be cancelled when the LaunchedEffect leaves the composition.

This function should not be used to (re-)launch ongoing tasks in response to callback events by way of storing callback data in MutableState passed to key. Instead, see rememberCoroutineScope to obtain a CoroutineScope that may be used to launch ongoing jobs scoped to the composition in response to event callbacks.

Parameters
noinline factory: () -> T

A function which will create a new instance of T. This function is NOT guaranteed to be called in place.

update: @DisallowComposableCalls Updater<T>.() -> Unit

A function to perform updates on the node. This will run every time emit is executed. This function is called in place and will be inlined.

noinline skippableUpdate: @Composable SkippableUpdater<T>.() -> Unit

A function to perform updates on the node. Unlike update, this function is Composable and will therefore be skipped unless it has been invalidated by some other mechanism. This can be useful to perform expensive calculations for updating the node where the calculations are likely to have the same inputs over time, so the function's execution can be skipped.

content: @Composable () -> Unit

the composable content that will emit the "children" of this node.

ReusableComposition

fun ReusableComposition(applier: Applier<*>, parent: CompositionContext): ReusableComposition

This method is the way to initiate a reusable composition. parent can be provided to make the composition behave as a sub-composition of the parent. If composition does not have a parent, Recomposer instance should be provided.

It is important to call Composition.dispose when composition is no longer needed in order to release resources.

Parameters
applier: Applier<*>

The Applier instance to be used in the composition.

parent: CompositionContext

The parent CompositionContext.

ReusableContent

@Composable
inline fun ReusableContent(key: Any?, content: @Composable () -> Unit): Unit

A utility function to mark a composition as supporting recycling. If the key changes the composition is replaced by a new composition (as would happen for key) but reusable nodes that are emitted by ReusableComposeNode are reused.

Parameters
key: Any?

the value that is used to trigger recycling. If recomposed with a different value the composer creates a new composition but tries to reuse reusable nodes.

content: @Composable () -> Unit

the composable children that are recyclable.

ReusableContentHost

@Composable
@ExplicitGroupsComposable
inline fun ReusableContentHost(
    active: Boolean,
    crossinline content: @Composable () -> Unit
): Unit

An optional utility function used when hosting ReusableContent. If active is false the content is treated as if it is deleted by removing all remembered objects from the composition but the node produced for the tree are not removed. When the composition later becomes active then the nodes are able to be reused inside ReusableContent content without requiring the remembered state of the composition's lifetime being arbitrarily extended.

Parameters
active: Boolean

when active is true content is composed normally. When active is false then the content is deactivated and all remembered state is treated as if the content was deleted but the nodes managed by the composition's Applier are unaffected. A active becomes true any reusable nodes from the previously active composition are candidates for reuse.

crossinline content: @Composable () -> Unit

the composable content that is managed by this composable.

SideEffect

@Composable
@NonRestartableComposable
@ExplicitGroupsComposable
fun SideEffect(effect: () -> Unit): Unit

Schedule effect to run when the current composition completes successfully and applies changes. SideEffect can be used to apply side effects to objects managed by the composition that are not backed by snapshots so as not to leave those objects in an inconsistent state if the current composition operation fails.

effect will always be run on the composition's apply dispatcher and appliers are never run concurrent with themselves, one another, applying changes to the composition tree, or running RememberObserver event callbacks. SideEffects are always run after RememberObserver event callbacks.

A SideEffect runs after every recomposition. To launch an ongoing task spanning potentially many recompositions, see LaunchedEffect. To manage an event subscription or other object lifecycle, see DisposableEffect.

clearCompositionErrors

@TestOnly
fun clearCompositionErrors(): Unit

Clears current composition errors in hot reload mode. Test-only API, not for use in production.

compositionLocalOf

fun <T : Any?> compositionLocalOf(
    policy: SnapshotMutationPolicy<T> = structuralEqualityPolicy(),
    defaultFactory: () -> T
): ProvidableCompositionLocal<T>

Create a CompositionLocal key that can be provided using CompositionLocalProvider. Changing the value provided during recomposition will invalidate the content of CompositionLocalProvider that read the value using CompositionLocal.current.

compositionLocalOf creates a ProvidableCompositionLocal which can be used in a a call to CompositionLocalProvider. Similar to MutableList vs. List, if the key is made public as CompositionLocal instead of ProvidableCompositionLocal, it can be read using CompositionLocal.current but not re-provided.

Parameters
policy: SnapshotMutationPolicy<T> = structuralEqualityPolicy()

a policy to determine when a CompositionLocal is considered changed. See SnapshotMutationPolicy for details.

defaultFactory: () -> T

a value factory to supply a value when a value is not provided. This factory is called when no value is provided through a CompositionLocalProvider of the caller of the component using CompositionLocal.current. If no reasonable default can be provided then consider throwing an exception.

compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf

fun <T : Any?> compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf(defaultComputation: CompositionLocalAccessorScope.() -> T): ProvidableCompositionLocal<T>

Create a CompositionLocal that behaves like it was provided using ProvidableCompositionLocal.providesComputed by default. If a value is provided using ProvidableCompositionLocal.provides it behaves as if the CompositionLocal was produced by calling compositionLocalOf.

In other words, a CompositionLocal produced by can be provided identically to CompositionLocal created with compositionLocalOf with the only difference is how it behaves when the value is not provided. For a compositionLocalOf the default value is returned. If no default value has be computed for CompositionLocal the default computation is called.

The lambda passed to compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf will be invoked every time the CompositionLocal.current is evaluated for the composition local and computes its value based on the current value of the locals referenced in the lambda at the time CompositionLocal.current is evaluated. This allows providing values that can be derived from other locals. For example, if accent colors can be calculated from a single base color, the accent colors can be provided as computed composition locals. Providing a new base color would automatically update all the accent colors.

import androidx.compose.runtime.compositionLocalOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf

val LocalBaseValue = compositionLocalOf { 10 }
val LocalLargerValue = compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf {
    LocalBaseValue.currentValue + 10
}
import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable
import androidx.compose.runtime.CompositionLocalProvider
import androidx.compose.runtime.compositionLocalOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf

val LocalValue = compositionLocalOf { 10 }
val LocalLargerValue = compositionLocalOf { 12 }
val LocalComputedValue = compositionLocalWithComputedDefaultOf { LocalValue.currentValue + 4 }

// In this example `LocalLargerValue` needs to be re-provided
// whenever `LocalValue` is provided to keep its value larger
// then `LocalValue`. However, `LocalComputedValue` does not
// need to be re-provided to stay larger than `LocalValue` as
// it is calculated based on the currently provided value for
// `LocalValue`. Whenever `LocalValue` is provided the value
// of `LocalComputedValue` is computed based on the currently
// provided value for `LocalValue`.

@Composable
fun App() {
    // Value is 10, the default value for LocalValue
    val value = LocalValue.current
    // Value is 12, the default value
    val largerValue = LocalLargerValue.current
    // Value is computed to be 14
    val computedValue = LocalComputedValue.current
    CompositionLocalProvider(LocalValue provides 20) {
        // Value is 20 provided above
        val nestedValue = LocalValue.current
        // Value is still 12 as an updated value was not re-provided
        val nestedLargerValue = LocalLargerValue.current
        // Values is computed to be 24; LocalValue.current + 4
        val nestedComputedValue = LocalComputedValue.current
        CompositionLocalProvider(LocalLargerValue provides LocalValue.current + 2) {
            // Value is 22 provided above
            val newLargerValue = LocalLargerValue.current

            CompositionLocalProvider(LocalValue provides 50) {
                // Value is now 50 provided above
                val finalValue = LocalValue.current
                // Value is still 22
                val finalLargerValue = LocalLargerValue.current
                // Value is now computed to be 54
                val finalComputed = LocalComputedValue.current
            }
        }
    }
}
Parameters
defaultComputation: CompositionLocalAccessorScope.() -> T

the default computation to use when this CompositionLocal is not provided.

currentCompositionErrors

@TestOnly
fun currentCompositionErrors(): List<Pair<ExceptionBoolean>>

Get list of errors captured in composition. This list is only available when recomposer is in hot reload mode. Test-only API, not for use in production.

Returns
List<Pair<ExceptionBoolean>>

pair of error and whether the error is recoverable.

derivedStateOf

@StateFactoryMarker
fun <T : Any?> derivedStateOf(calculation: () -> T): State<T>

Creates a State object whose State.value is the result of calculation. The result of calculation will be cached in such a way that calling State.value repeatedly will not cause calculation to be executed multiple times, but reading State.value will cause all State objects that got read during the calculation to be read in the current Snapshot, meaning that this will correctly subscribe to the derived state objects if the value is being read in an observed context such as a Composable function. Derived states without mutation policy trigger updates on each dependency change. To avoid invalidation on update, provide suitable SnapshotMutationPolicy through derivedStateOf overload.

@Composable
fun Example() {
    var a by remember { mutableStateOf(0) }
    var b by remember { mutableStateOf(0) }
    val sum = remember { derivedStateOf { a + b } }
    // Changing either a or b will cause CountDisplay to recompose but not trigger Example
    // to recompose.
    CountDisplay(sum)
}
Parameters
calculation: () -> T

the calculation to create the value this state object represents.

derivedStateOf

@StateFactoryMarker
fun <T : Any?> derivedStateOf(
    policy: SnapshotMutationPolicy<T>,
    calculation: () -> T
): State<T>

Creates a State object whose State.value is the result of calculation. The result of calculation will be cached in such a way that calling State.value repeatedly will not cause calculation to be executed multiple times, but reading State.value will cause all State objects that got read during the calculation to be read in the current Snapshot, meaning that this will correctly subscribe to the derived state objects if the value is being read in an observed context such as a Composable function.

    CountDisplay(sum)
}
Parameters
policy: SnapshotMutationPolicy<T>

mutation policy to control when changes to the calculation result trigger update.

calculation: () -> T

invalidateGroupsWithKey

@TestOnly
fun invalidateGroupsWithKey(key: Int): Unit

Parameters
key: Int

group key to invalidate.

isTraceInProgress

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun isTraceInProgress(): Boolean

Internal tracing API.

Should be called without thread synchronization with occasional information loss.

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> key(vararg keys: Any?, block: @Composable () -> T): T

key is a utility composable that is used to "group" or "key" a block of execution inside of a composition. This is sometimes needed for correctness inside of control-flow that may cause a given composable invocation to execute more than once during composition.

The value for a key does not need to be globally unique, and needs only be unique amongst the invocations of key at that point in composition.

For instance, consider the following example:

import androidx.compose.runtime.key

for (user in users) {
    key(user.id) { UserPreview(user = user) }
}

for (user in users.filter { isAdmin }) {
    key(user.id) { Friend(friend = user) }
}

Even though there are users with the same id composed in both the top and the bottom loop, because they are different calls to key, there is no need to create compound keys.

The key must be unique for each element in the collection, however, or children and local state might be reused in unintended ways.

For instance, consider the following example:

import androidx.compose.runtime.key

for ((child, parent) in relationships) {
    key(parent.id) {
        User(user = child)
        User(user = parent)
    }
}

This example assumes that parent.id is a unique key for each item in the collection, but this is only true if it is fair to assume that a parent will only ever have a single child, which may not be the case. Instead, it may be more correct to do the following:

import androidx.compose.runtime.key

for ((child, parent) in relationships) {
    key(parent.id to child.id) {
        User(user = child)
        User(user = parent)
    }
}

A compound key can be created by passing in multiple arguments:

import androidx.compose.runtime.State
import androidx.compose.runtime.key
import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember

for (element in elements) {
    val selected by key(element.id, parentId) { remember { mutableStateOf(false) } }
    ListItem(item = element, selected = selected)
}
Parameters
vararg keys: Any?

The set of values to be used to create a compound key. These will be compared to their previous values using equals and hashCode

block: @Composable () -> T

mutableStateSetOf

@StateFactoryMarker
fun <T : Any?> mutableStateSetOf(vararg elements: T): SnapshotStateSet<T>

Create an instance of MutableSet that is observable and can be snapshot.

neverEqualPolicy

fun <T : Any?> neverEqualPolicy(): SnapshotMutationPolicy<T>

A policy never treat values of a MutableState as equivalent.

Setting MutableState.value will always be considered a change. When applying a MutableSnapshot that changes the state will always conflict with other snapshots that change the same state.

produceState

@Composable
fun <T : Any?> produceState(initialValue: T, producer: suspend ProduceStateScope<T>.() -> Unit): State<T>

Return an observable snapshot State that produces values over time without a defined data source.

producer is launched when produceState enters the composition and is cancelled when produceState leaves the composition. producer should use ProduceStateScope.value to set new values on the returned State.

The returned State conflates values; no change will be observable if ProduceStateScope.value is used to set a value that is equal to its old value, and observers may only see the latest value if several values are set in rapid succession.

produceState may be used to observe either suspending or non-suspending sources of external data, for example:

import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.Column
import androidx.compose.runtime.produceState

val uiState by
    produceState<UiState<List<Person>>>(UiState.Loading, viewModel) {
        viewModel.people.map { UiState.Data(it) }.collect { value = it }

    }

produceState

@Composable
fun <T : Any?> produceState(initialValue: T, key1: Any?, producer: suspend ProduceStateScope<T>.() -> Unit): State<T>

Return an observable snapshot State that produces values over time from key1.

producer is launched when produceState enters the composition and is cancelled when produceState leaves the composition. If key1 changes, a running producer will be cancelled and re-launched for the new source. producer should use ProduceStateScope.value to set new values on the returned State.

The returned State conflates values; no change will be observable if ProduceStateScope.value is used to set a value that is equal to its old value, and observers may only see the latest value if several values are set in rapid succession.

referentialEqualityPolicy

fun <T : Any?> referentialEqualityPolicy(): SnapshotMutationPolicy<T>

A policy to treat values of a MutableState as equivalent if they are referentially (===) equal.

Setting MutableState.value to its current referentially (===) equal value is not considered a change. When applying a MutableSnapshot, if the snapshot changes the value to the equivalent value the parent snapshot has is not considered a conflict.

remember

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> remember(crossinline calculation: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> T): T

Remember the value produced by calculation. calculation will only be evaluated during the composition. Recomposition will always return the value produced by composition.

remember

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> remember(
    key1: Any?,
    crossinline calculation: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> T
): T

Remember the value returned by calculation if key1 compares equal (==) to the value it had in the previous composition, otherwise produce and remember a new value by calling calculation.

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> remember(
    vararg keys: Any?,
    crossinline calculation: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> T

Remember the value returned by calculation if all values of keys are equal (==) to the values they had in the previous composition, otherwise produce and remember a new value by calling calculation.

remember

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> remember(
    key1: Any?,
    key2: Any?,
    crossinline calculation: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> T
): T

Remember the value returned by calculation if key1 and key2 are equal (==) to the values they had in the previous composition, otherwise produce and remember a new value by calling calculation.

remember

@Composable
inline fun <T : Any?> remember(
    key1: Any?,
    key2: Any?,
    key3: Any?,
    crossinline calculation: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> T
): T

Remember the value returned by calculation if key1, key2 and key3 are equal (==) to values they had in the previous composition, otherwise produce and remember a new value by calling calculation.

rememberCompositionContext

@Composable
fun rememberCompositionContext(): CompositionContext

An Effect to construct a CompositionContext at the current point of composition. This can be used to run a separate composition in the context of the current one, preserving CompositionLocals and propagating invalidations. When this call leaves the composition, the context is invalidated.

rememberCoroutineScope

@Composable
inline fun rememberCoroutineScope(
    crossinline getContext: @DisallowComposableCalls () -> CoroutineContext = { EmptyCoroutineContext }
): CoroutineScope

Return a CoroutineScope bound to this point in the composition using the optional CoroutineContext provided by getContext. getContext will only be called once and the same CoroutineScope instance will be returned across recompositions.

This scope will be cancelled when this call leaves the composition. The CoroutineContext returned by getContext may not contain a Job as this scope is considered to be a child of the composition.

The default dispatcher of this scope if one is not provided by the context returned by getContext will be the applying dispatcher of the composition's Recomposer.

Use this scope to launch jobs in response to callback events such as clicks or other user interaction where the response to that event needs to unfold over time and be cancelled if the composable managing that process leaves the composition. Jobs should never be launched into any coroutine scope as a side effect of composition itself. For scoped ongoing jobs initiated by composition, see LaunchedEffect.

This function will not throw if preconditions are not met, as composable functions do not yet fully support exceptions. Instead the returned scope's CoroutineScope.coroutineContext will contain a failed Job with the associated exception and will not be capable of launching child jobs.

rememberUpdatedState

@Composable
fun <T : Any?> rememberUpdatedState(newValue: T): State<T>

remember a mutableStateOf and update its value to newValue on each recomposition of the rememberUpdatedState call.

rememberUpdatedState should be used when parameters or values computed during composition are referenced by a long-lived lambda or object expression. Recomposition will update the resulting State without recreating the long-lived lambda or object, allowing that object to persist without cancelling and resubscribing, or relaunching a long-lived operation that may be expensive or prohibitive to recreate and restart. This may be common when working with DisposableEffect or LaunchedEffect, for example:

import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable
import androidx.compose.runtime.DisposableEffect
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember
import androidx.compose.runtime.rememberUpdatedState

@Composable
fun EventHandler(dispatcher: Dispatcher, onEvent: () -> Unit) {
    val currentOnEvent by rememberUpdatedState(onEvent)

    // Event handlers are ordered and a new onEvent should not cause us to re-register,
    // losing our position in the dispatcher.
    DisposableEffect(dispatcher) {
        val disposable =
            dispatcher.addListener {
                // currentOnEvent will always refer to the latest onEvent function that
                // the EventHandler was recomposed with
                currentOnEvent()
            }
        onDispose { disposable.dispose() }
    }
}

LaunchedEffects often describe state machines that should not be reset and restarted if a parameter or event callback changes, but they should have the current value available when needed. For example:

import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable
import androidx.compose.runtime.LaunchedEffect
import androidx.compose.runtime.remember
import androidx.compose.runtime.rememberUpdatedState

@Composable
fun NotificationHost(state: NotificationState, onTimeout: (Notification) -> Unit) {
    val currentOnTimeout by rememberUpdatedState(onTimeout)

    state.currentNotification?.let { currentNotification ->
        LaunchedEffect(currentNotification) {
            // We should not restart this delay if onTimeout changes, but we want to call
            // the onTimeout we were last recomposed with when it completes.
            delay(NotificationTimeout)
            currentOnTimeout(currentNotification)
        }
    }

    // ...
}

By using rememberUpdatedState a composable function can update these operations in progress.

simulateHotReload

@TestOnly
fun simulateHotReload(context: Any): Unit

Simulates hot reload of all current compositions by disposing all composed content and restarting compositions. Calling this method switches recomposer into hot reload mode. Test-only API, not for use in production.

Parameters
context: Any

context for disposal.

snapshotFlow

fun <T : Any?> snapshotFlow(block: () -> T): Flow<T>

Create a Flow from observable Snapshot state. (e.g. state holders returned by mutableStateOf.)

snapshotFlow creates a Flow that runs block when collected and emits the result, recording any snapshot state that was accessed. While collection continues, if a new Snapshot is applied that changes state accessed by block, the flow will run block again, re-recording the snapshot state that was accessed. If the result of block is not equal to the previous result, the flow will emit that new result. (This behavior is similar to that of Flow.distinctUntilChanged.) Collection will continue indefinitely unless it is explicitly cancelled or limited by the use of other Flow operators.

import androidx.compose.runtime.mutableStateOf
import androidx.compose.runtime.snapshotFlow
import androidx.compose.runtime.snapshots.Snapshot

// Define Snapshot state objects
var greeting by mutableStateOf("Hello")
var person by mutableStateOf("Adam")

// ...

// Create a flow that will emit whenever our person-specific greeting changes
val greetPersonFlow = snapshotFlow { "$greeting, $person" }

// ...

val collectionScope: CoroutineScope = TODO("Use your scope here")

// Collect the flow and offer greetings!
collectionScope.launch { greetPersonFlow.collect { println(greeting) } }

// ...

// Change snapshot state; greetPersonFlow will emit a new greeting
Snapshot.withMutableSnapshot {
    greeting = "Ahoy"
    person = "Sean"
}

block is run in a read-only Snapshot and may not modify snapshot data. If block attempts to modify snapshot data, flow collection will fail with IllegalStateException.

block may run more than once for equal sets of inputs or only once after many rapid snapshot changes; it should be idempotent and free of side effects.

When working with Snapshot state it is useful to keep the distinction between events and state in mind. snapshotFlow models snapshot changes as events, but events cannot be effectively modeled as observable state. Observable state is a lossy compression of the events that produced that state.

An observable event happens at a point in time and is discarded. All registered observers at the time the event occurred are notified. All individual events in a stream are assumed to be relevant and may build on one another; repeated equal events have meaning and therefore a registered observer must observe all events without skipping.

Observable state raises change events when the state changes from one value to a new, unequal value. State change events are conflated; only the most recent state matters. Observers of state changes must therefore be idempotent; given the same state value the observer should produce the same result. It is valid for a state observer to both skip intermediate states as well as run multiple times for the same state and the result should be the same.

sourceInformation

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun sourceInformation(composer: Composer, sourceInformation: String): Unit

A Compose internal function. DO NOT call directly.

Records source information that can be used for tooling to determine the source location of the corresponding composable function. By default, this function is declared as having no side-effects. It is safe for code shrinking tools (such as R8 or ProGuard) to remove it.

sourceInformationMarkerEnd

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun sourceInformationMarkerEnd(composer: Composer): Unit

A Compose internal function. DO NOT call directly.

Records the end of a source information marker that can be used for tooling to determine the source location of the corresponding composable function that otherwise don't require tracking information such as ReadOnlyComposable functions. By default, this function is declared as having no side-effects. It is safe for code shrinking tools (such as R8 or ProGuard) to remove it.

Important that both sourceInformationMarkerStart and sourceInformationMarkerEnd are removed together or both kept. Removing only one will cause incorrect runtime behavior.

sourceInformationMarkerStart

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun sourceInformationMarkerStart(
    composer: Composer,
    key: Int,
    sourceInformation: String
): Unit

A Compose internal function. DO NOT call directly.

Records the start of a source information marker that can be used for tooling to determine the source location of the corresponding composable function that otherwise don't require tracking information such as ReadOnlyComposable functions. By default, this function is declared as having no side-effects. It is safe for code shrinking tools (such as R8 or ProGuard) to remove it.

Important that both sourceInformationMarkerStart and sourceInformationMarkerEnd are removed together or both kept. Removing only one will cause incorrect runtime behavior.

staticCompositionLocalOf

fun <T : Any?> staticCompositionLocalOf(defaultFactory: () -> T): ProvidableCompositionLocal<T>

Create a CompositionLocal key that can be provided using CompositionLocalProvider.

Unlike compositionLocalOf, reads of a staticCompositionLocalOf are not tracked by the composer and changing the value provided in the CompositionLocalProvider call will cause the entirety of the content to be recomposed instead of just the places where in the composition the local value is used. This lack of tracking, however, makes a staticCompositionLocalOf more efficient when the value provided is highly unlikely to or will never change. For example, the android context, font loaders, or similar shared values, are unlikely to change for the components in the content of a the CompositionLocalProvider and should consider using a staticCompositionLocalOf. A color, or other theme like value, might change or even be animated therefore a compositionLocalOf should be used.

staticCompositionLocalOf creates a ProvidableCompositionLocal which can be used in a a call to CompositionLocalProvider. Similar to MutableList vs. List, if the key is made public as CompositionLocal instead of ProvidableCompositionLocal, it can be read using CompositionLocal.current but not re-provided.

Parameters
defaultFactory: () -> T

a value factory to supply a value when a value is not provided. This factory is called when no value is provided through a CompositionLocalProvider of the caller of the component using CompositionLocal.current. If no reasonable default can be provided then consider throwing an exception.

structuralEqualityPolicy

fun <T : Any?> structuralEqualityPolicy(): SnapshotMutationPolicy<T>

A policy to treat values of a MutableState as equivalent if they are structurally (==) equal.

Setting MutableState.value to its current structurally (==) equal value is not considered a change. When applying a MutableSnapshot, if the snapshot changes the value to the equivalent value the parent snapshot has is not considered a conflict.

traceEventEnd

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun traceEventEnd(): Unit

Internal tracing API.

Should be called without thread synchronization with occasional information loss.

traceEventStart

@ComposeCompilerApi
fun traceEventStart(key: Int, dirty1: Int, dirty2: Int, info: String): Unit

Internal tracing API.

Should be called without thread synchronization with occasional information loss.

Parameters
key: Int

is a group key generated by the compiler plugin for the function being traced. This key is unique the function.

dirty1: Int

$dirty metadata: forced-recomposition and function parameters 1..10 if present

dirty2: Int

$dirty2 metadata: forced-recomposition and function parameters 11..20 if present

info: String

is a user displayable string that describes the function for which this is the start event.

withFrameMillis

suspend fun <R : Any?> withFrameMillis(onFrame: (frameTimeMillis: Long) -> R): R

Suspends until a new frame is requested, immediately invokes onFrame with the frame time in milliseconds in the calling context of frame dispatch, then resumes with the result from onFrame.

frameTimeMillis should be used when calculating animation time deltas from frame to frame as it may be normalized to the target time for the frame, not necessarily a direct, "now" value.

The time base of the value provided by MonotonicFrameClock.withFrameMillis is implementation defined. Time values provided are monotonically increasing; after a call to withFrameMillis completes it must not provide a smaller value for a subsequent call.

This function will invoke MonotonicFrameClock.withFrameNanos using the calling CoroutineContext's MonotonicFrameClock and will throw an IllegalStateException if one is not present in the CoroutineContext.

withFrameNanos

suspend fun <R : Any?> withFrameNanos(onFrame: (frameTimeNanos: Long) -> R): R

Suspends until a new frame is requested, immediately invokes onFrame with the frame time in nanoseconds in the calling context of frame dispatch, then resumes with the result from onFrame.

frameTimeNanos should be used when calculating animation time deltas from frame to frame as it may be normalized to the target time for the frame, not necessarily a direct, "now" value.

The time base of the value provided by withFrameNanos is implementation defined. Time values provided are strictly monotonically increasing; after a call to withFrameNanos completes it must not provide the same value again for a subsequent call.

This function will invoke MonotonicFrameClock.withFrameNanos using the calling CoroutineContext's MonotonicFrameClock and will throw an IllegalStateException if one is not present in the CoroutineContext.

withRunningRecomposer

suspend fun <R : Any?> withRunningRecomposer(block: suspend CoroutineScope.(recomposer: Recomposer) -> R): R

Runs block with a new, active Recomposer applying changes in the calling CoroutineContext. The Recomposer will be closed after block returns. withRunningRecomposer will return once the Recomposer is Recomposer.State.ShutDown and all child jobs launched by block have joined.

Extension functions

asFloatState

fun State<Float>.asFloatState(): FloatState

Converts a State<Float> (as in, a State of boxed Floats) into a primitive-backed Float. The state will be automatically unboxed to the required primitive type. The returned state is read-only. The returned state will mirror the values of the base state and apply updates in the same way as the receiver defines.

On the JVM, this conversion does not avoid the autoboxing that Float attempts to escape, but instead is intended to allow interoperability between components that use either representation of a state of type Float.

asIntState

fun State<Int>.asIntState(): IntState

Converts a State<Int> (as in, a State of boxed Ints) into a primitive-backed IntState. The state will be automatically unboxed to the required primitive type. The returned state is read-only. The returned state will mirror the values of the base state and apply updates in the same way as the receiver defines.

On the JVM, this conversion does not avoid the autoboxing that IntState attempts to escape, but instead is intended to allow interoperability between components that use either representation of a state of type Int.

asLongState

fun State<Long>.asLongState(): LongState

Converts a State<Long> (as in, a State of boxed Longs) into a primitive-backed LongState. The state will be automatically unboxed to the required primitive type. The returned state is read-only. The returned state will mirror the values of the base state and apply updates in the same way as the receiver defines.

On the JVM, this conversion does not avoid the autoboxing that LongState attempts to escape, but instead is intended to allow interoperability between components that use either representation of a state of type Long.

toMutableStateList

fun <T : Any?> Collection<T>.toMutableStateList(): SnapshotStateList<T>

Create an instance of MutableList from a collection that is observable and can be snapshot.

toMutableStateMap

fun <K : Any?, V : Any?> Iterable<Pair<K, V>>.toMutableStateMap(): SnapshotStateMap<K, V>

Create an instance of MutableMap from a collection of pairs that is observable and can be snapshot.

withFrameMillis

suspend inline fun <R : Any?> MonotonicFrameClock.withFrameMillis(
    crossinline onFrame: (frameTimeMillis: Long) -> R
): R

Suspends until a new frame is requested, immediately invokes onFrame with the frame time in milliseconds in the calling context of frame dispatch, then resumes with the result from onFrame.

frameTimeMillis should be used when calculating animation time deltas from frame to frame as it may be normalized to the target time for the frame, not necessarily a direct, "now" value.

The time base of the value provided by MonotonicFrameClock.withFrameMillis is implementation defined. Time values provided are monotonically increasing; after a call to withFrameMillis completes it must not provide a smaller value for a subsequent call.

Top-level properties

DefaultMonotonicFrameClock

val DefaultMonotonicFrameClockMonotonicFrameClock

The MonotonicFrameClock used by withFrameNanos and withFrameMillis if one is not present in the calling kotlin.coroutines.CoroutineContext.

This value is no longer used by compose runtime.

currentComposer

val currentComposerComposer

TODO(lmr): provide documentation

currentCompositeKeyHash

val currentCompositeKeyHashInt

This a hash value used to coordinate map externally stored state to the composition. For example, this is used by saved instance state to preserve state across activity lifetime boundaries.

This value is likely to be unique but is not guaranteed unique. There are known cases, such as for loops without a key, where the runtime does not have enough information to make the compound key hash unique.

currentCompositionLocalContext

val currentCompositionLocalContextCompositionLocalContext

Returns the current CompositionLocalContext which contains all CompositionLocal's in the current composition and their values provided by CompositionLocalProvider's. This context can be used to pass locals to another composition via CompositionLocalProvider. That is usually needed if another composition is not a subcomposition of the current one.

currentRecomposeScope

val currentRecomposeScopeRecomposeScope

Returns an object which can be used to invalidate the current scope at this point in composition. This object can be used to manually cause recompositions.

Extension properties

recomposeCoroutineContext

@ExperimentalComposeApi
val ControlledComposition.recomposeCoroutineContextCoroutineContext

The CoroutineContext that should be used to perform concurrent recompositions of this ControlledComposition when used in an environment supporting concurrent composition.

See Recomposer.runRecomposeConcurrentlyAndApplyChanges as an example of configuring such an environment.
