textChanges

Create a InitialValueFlow of text changes on the TextView instance where the value emitted is the current text.

Note: Values emitted by this flow are mutable owned by the host TextView and thus are not safe to cache or delay reading (such as by observing on a different thread). If you want to cache or delay reading the items emitted then you must map values through a function which calls String.valueOf() or CharSequence.toString() to create a copy.

Note: Created flow keeps a strong reference to the TextView instance until the coroutine that launched the flow collector is cancelled.

Example of usage:

textView.textChanges()
    .onEach { text ->
         // handle text
    }
    .launchIn(uiScope)
