Is it worth putting a... what's the word, um, convenience getter (? I can't think of it - but what I'm after is syntactic sugar!) on this so we can just call MessagingModuleConfiguration.getLanguage() or something?
Same for anything else that calls MessagingModuleConfiguration.getShared().getPrefs() before it's final "give me the thing".
It looks like you have this further down where you just call context.prefs.<something> - is that the same thing?

Yeah, though ideally this is injected, I'll see if I can do that.
haha, yeah context.prefs should be the same thing, but again, if prefs is injected, that's more correct.
I'll look into it.

If we're not using this code maybe remove?

eek, find and replace fixed the commented code 🤔
I'd be tempted to delete.

Out of curiosity, why do you reckon it might be 604,800,000... that's oddly specific, isn't it?
Ah, it's 1 week in milliseconds. Can we use something like 1.weeks.inWholeMilliseconds instead?

totally, that's 604_800_000 x thinking.
Although... I could add a courtesy Pref with an Converter to get/set Durations directly... 🤔

Should we make this a static class and just access it without the new?

It's more correct to instantiate, as it needs prefs. I could make this thing get injected itself... and inject its members...

Prefclass that encapsulates a preference key, its type and default value all in one place.Flowto observe changes to shared preferencesWhy add Pref? Pref is a place to put all of the important info about a preference and adds a degree of type-safety
name
default value
the type is implied by the default (or if the default is null)
Then when we get/set/observe it the type is enforced. The only way to mess it up is if the name of the pref is reused with another type, even in the past... maybe it'd be an idea to wipe all prefs we don't declare... 🤔 that'd be safer.
Why delete the static methods?
The static methods were not mockable
The static methods would create/find/fetch a new SharedPreferences for each call. slow? expensive? probably.
Why remove the interface?
The interface served no purpose as there was no alternative implementations,
the implementation was not in a separate module, it was in the same file.
Why add StateFlows to prefs?
StateFlow has a present value,
StateFlow emits changes
