Thank you, Mr. Peal.

Using mvrx what is the recommended approach for use cases such as "autocomplete edittext" where you want to connect your ui text rx stream with the viewmodel's methods (i.e. taking the advantages of rx operations like debounce etc)

I would recommend just having a text watcher that calls a function on your ViewModel that sets a state property to the CharSequence it emitted. What rx operations would you do on it?

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking to do something like that in the "view" in order to take advantage of Rx's debounce operator that I will make less requests when my autocomplete edittext queries the api
.debounce(500, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)
.subscribe { viewModel.getAddressByPostCode(it.toString()) }

Obviously I need to do write some disposable cancel logic inside fetchAddressByPostCode method in order to cancel earlier api calls
i.e fetchAddressByPostCode logic has
withState {
if (postCode != it.queryText) {

setState {
copy(queryText = postCode)
disposable?.let {it.dispose()}
disposable = repository.getAddress(postCode)
.execute {
copy(addressResults = it)
I hope that is clear. Any thoughts?
