Refresh in paging 3 library when using RxJava

Question

homeViewModel.pagingDataFlow.subscribe(expensesPagingData -> {
                expenseAdapter.submitData(getLifecycle(), expensesPagingData);    
            }, throwable -> Log.e(TAG, "onCreate: " + throwable.getMessage()));

// ViewModel

 private void init() {
        pagingDataFlow = homeRepository.init();
        CoroutineScope coroutineScope = ViewModelKt.getViewModelScope(this);
        PagingRx.cachedIn(pagingDataFlow, coroutineScope);

    }

// Repository 
    public  Flowable<PagingData<ExpensesModel>> init() {
            // Define Paging Source
            expensePagingSource = new ExpensePagingSource(feDataService);
            // Create new Pager
            Pager<Integer, ExpensesModel> pager = new Pager<Integer, ExpensesModel>(
                    
                    new PagingConfig(10,
                            10,
                            false, 
                            10, 
                            100),
                    () -> expensePagingSource); // set paging source
    
            // inti Flowable
            pagingDataFlow = PagingRx.getFlowable(pager);
            return pagingDataFlow;
        }


I have tried to invalidate still not working.
 public void invalidatePageSource() {
        if (expensePagingSource != null) {
            expensePagingSource.invalidate();
        }
    }

When refreshing the adapter using expenseAdapter.refresh() An instance of PagingSource was re-used when Pager expected to create a newinstance. Ensure that the pagingSourceFactory passed to Pager always returns a new instance of PagingSource. This my floawable object which I am using to get data.

Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

So instead of

val pagingSource = PagingSource()

return Pager() {
   pagingSource
}.flow

Use this

return Pager() {
   PagingSource()
}.flow

Basically it helps store the reference of paging resource which is later used by adapter to call invalidate on it when you call refresh().
