Reuse colors in xml while defining Jetpack Compose Theme

Question

I know that with Jetpack Compose I can define colors in Kotlin files. Since I'm migrating an app that used not to use Jetpack Compose, I'd like to keep pointing to the colors in the XML until I get rid of all the places when I'm already using them.

I know that I can use colorResource in a @Composable function but I can't do it when I define the palette in a Kotlin file.

Is it possible to do something equivalent to this?

private val DarkColorPalette = darkColors(
    primary = colorResource(id = R.color.company),
    ...
)

Answer 1

The way I did it is by using @Composable functions even for the definitions of the colors:

@Composable
fun darkColorPalette() = darkColors(
    primary = colorResource(id = R.color.company),
)
