5. Connect your queries to your UI


In this chapter, you are going to display a list of Sites in a LazyColumn.

Configure LaunchListAdapter

In LaunchList, declare a list of LaunchListQuery.Launch, initialized as empty:

app/src/main/java/com/example/rocketreserver/LaunchList.kt
@Composable
fun LaunchList(onLaunchClick: (launchId: String) -> Unit) {
var launchList by remember { mutableStateOf(emptyList<LaunchListQuery.Launch>()) }

LaunchListQuery.Launch is a typesafe generated model from your LaunchList. .

Make a UI for the items

Update the LaunchItem composable to pass it a LaunchListQuery.Launch and display the id:

app/src/main/java/com/example/rocketreserver/LaunchList.kt
@Composable
private fun LaunchItem(launch: LaunchListQuery.Launch, onClick: (launchId: String) -> Unit) {
ListItem(
modifier = Modifier.clickable { onClick(launch.id) },
headlineText = {
// Mission name
Text(text = "Launch ${launch.id}")
},

Use the data in the list

Fill launchList with the data from the response, and use it in the LazyColumn:

app/src/main/java/com/example/rocketreserver/LaunchList.kt
@Composable
fun LaunchList(onLaunchClick: (launchId: String) -> Unit) {
var launchList by remember { mutableStateOf(emptyList<LaunchListQuery.Launch>()) }
LaunchedEffect(Unit) {
val response = apolloClient.query(LaunchListQuery()).execute()
launchList = response.data?.launches?.launches?.filterNotNull() ?: emptyList()
}
LazyColumn {
items(launchList) { launch ->
LaunchItem(launch = launch, onClick = onLaunchClick)
}
}
}

Note: the .filterNotNull() is necessary because the schema defines launches as a list of nullable Launch objects.

Test your query

Hit the Run button. You now have a UI connected to your GraphQL queries 🚀

A basic list

It looks a bit plain, though. Next, you'll add more info to the list to make it look nicer!
