由于类型不匹配,无法在 Flow 中发出 Either.Left

Cannot Emit Either.Left in Flow because of type mismatch

这里我有一个函数可以获取一些数据。我使用 Either 将数据发送到 ViewModel。

sealed class Either<out L, out R> {
    /** * Represents the left side of [Either] class which by convention is a "Failure". */
    data class Left<out L>(val a: L) : Either<L, Nothing>()

    /** * Represents the right side of [Either] class which by convention is a "Success". */
    data class Right<out R>(val b: R) : Either<Nothing, R>()
}

如何在 catch 块中发出错误数据?

fun getStocksFlow(): Flow<Either<Throwable, List<Stock>>> = flow {
        val response = api.getStocks()
        emit(response)
    }
        .map {
            Either.Right(it.stocks.toDomain())
        }
        .flowOn(ioDispatcher)
        .catch { throwable ->
            emit(Either.Left(throwable)) //Here it shows Type mismatch, it needs Either.Right<List<Stock>>
        }

Flow 在 .map 应用后转换为 Flow<Right<Throwable, List<Stock>>>,因此尝试将 Either.Left 类型的值发送到 Either.Right 流是错误的,因为 Either.Left 没有' 匹配 Either.Right 类型。将 Either.Right(it.stocks.toDomain()) 转换为 Either<Throwable, List<Stock>> 应该可以解决这个问题。
