hi all! I’m attempting to implement sticky bucketing on both swift and kotlin SDKs. The function signatures for the three functions in the interface/protocol are not async and do not accept callbacks. This presents problems because our implementation requires fetching the assignments from our API. We’ve already implemented this with the React SDK where the functions are async. Any recommendations?

maybe to wrap the call with async {}

so just write the function to block and then async-ify it within the caller?

GBStickyBucketServiceImp is an example of implementation of sticky bucket service. If it is stored in file it can be read by using buffered reader. Reader#readText() method is usual method (non-suspend)

yes but that’s not our use case. We need cross-platform sticky bucketing which can only be enabled by back-end sticky bucketing. As mentioned, the React SDK provides an async function signature to support this use case. Is there a reason that the mobile SDKs do not?

From the point of view that all SDKs should be the same you are right. Kotlin SDK just doesn't use advantages of asynchronous operations in this place. From SDKs equality point of view it seems like it is not about suspend non-susped but about that the methods should return Deffered

my point is actually from the point of view of needing to support my use case. I’m not an expert on Kotlin async primitives but, at the end of the day, I just need a way to perform an API call and have the

StickyBuckeingService

function wait for the response

to perform an API calls from all of three (getAssignments, saveAssignments, getAllAssignments) ?

yes, that’s right. The assignments are being stored in our backend

The pull request was created according to the issue

thank you!
