# Implementing Android Code - Bitwarden Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
**This skill provides tactical guidance for Bitwarden-specific patterns.** For comprehensive architecture decisions and complete code style rules, consult `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` and `docs/STYLE_AND_BEST_PRACTICES.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Patterns Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### A. ViewModel Implementation (State-Action-Event Pattern)
|
||||
|
||||
All ViewModels follow the **State-Action-Event (SAE)** pattern via `BaseViewModel<State, Event, Action>`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Requirements:**
|
||||
- Annotate with `@HiltViewModel`
|
||||
- State class MUST be `@Parcelize data class : Parcelable`
|
||||
- Implement `handleAction(action: A)` - MUST be synchronous
|
||||
- Post internal actions from coroutines using `sendAction()`
|
||||
- Save/restore state via `SavedStateHandle[KEY_STATE]`
|
||||
- Private action handlers: `private fun handle*` naming convention
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [ViewModel template](templates.md#viewmodel-template-state-action-event-pattern)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
@HiltViewModel
|
||||
class ExampleViewModel @Inject constructor(
|
||||
savedStateHandle: SavedStateHandle,
|
||||
private val repository: ExampleRepository,
|
||||
) : BaseViewModel<ExampleState, ExampleEvent, ExampleAction>(
|
||||
initialState = savedStateHandle[KEY_STATE] ?: ExampleState()
|
||||
) {
|
||||
init {
|
||||
stateFlow.onEach { savedStateHandle[KEY_STATE] = it }.launchIn(viewModelScope)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
override fun handleAction(action: ExampleAction) {
|
||||
// Synchronous dispatch only
|
||||
when (action) {
|
||||
is Action.Click -> handleClick()
|
||||
is Action.Internal.DataReceived -> handleDataReceived(action)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
private fun handleClick() {
|
||||
viewModelScope.launch {
|
||||
val result = repository.fetchData()
|
||||
sendAction(Action.Internal.DataReceived(result)) // Post internal action
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
private fun handleDataReceived(action: Action.Internal.DataReceived) {
|
||||
mutableStateFlow.update { it.copy(data = action.result) }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:**
|
||||
- `ui/src/main/kotlin/com/bitwarden/ui/platform/base/BaseViewModel.kt` (see `handleAction` method)
|
||||
- `app/src/main/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/ui/auth/feature/login/LoginViewModel.kt` (see class declaration)
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Gotchas:**
|
||||
- ❌ **NEVER** update `mutableStateFlow` directly inside coroutines
|
||||
- ✅ **ALWAYS** post internal actions from coroutines, update state in `handleAction()`
|
||||
- ❌ **NEVER** forget `@IgnoredOnParcel` for sensitive data (causes security leak)
|
||||
- ✅ **ALWAYS** use `@Parcelize` on state classes for process death recovery
|
||||
- ✅ State restoration happens automatically if properly saved to `SavedStateHandle`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### B. Navigation Implementation (Type-Safe)
|
||||
|
||||
All navigation uses **type-safe routes** with kotlinx.serialization.
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Structure:**
|
||||
1. `@Serializable` route data class with parameters
|
||||
2. `...Args` helper class for extracting from `SavedStateHandle`
|
||||
3. `NavGraphBuilder.{screen}Destination()` extension for adding screen to graph
|
||||
4. `NavController.navigateTo{Screen}()` extension for navigation calls
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [Navigation template](templates.md#navigation-template-type-safe-routes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
@Serializable
|
||||
data class ExampleRoute(val userId: String, val isEditMode: Boolean = false)
|
||||
|
||||
data class ExampleArgs(val userId: String, val isEditMode: Boolean)
|
||||
|
||||
fun SavedStateHandle.toExampleArgs(): ExampleArgs {
|
||||
val route = this.toRoute<ExampleRoute>()
|
||||
return ExampleArgs(userId = route.userId, isEditMode = route.isEditMode)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
fun NavController.navigateToExample(userId: String, isEditMode: Boolean = false, navOptions: NavOptions? = null) {
|
||||
this.navigate(route = ExampleRoute(userId, isEditMode), navOptions = navOptions)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
fun NavGraphBuilder.exampleDestination(onNavigateBack: () -> Unit) {
|
||||
composableWithSlideTransitions<ExampleRoute> {
|
||||
ExampleScreen(onNavigateBack = onNavigateBack)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:** `app/src/main/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/ui/auth/feature/login/LoginNavigation.kt` (see `LoginRoute` and extensions)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Benefits:**
|
||||
- ✅ Type safety: Compile-time errors for missing parameters
|
||||
- ✅ No string literals in navigation code
|
||||
- ✅ Automatic serialization/deserialization
|
||||
- ✅ Clear contract for screen dependencies
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### C. Screen/Compose Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
All screens follow consistent Compose patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [Screen/Compose template](templates.md#screencompose-template)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Patterns:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
@Composable
|
||||
fun ExampleScreen(
|
||||
onNavigateBack: () -> Unit,
|
||||
viewModel: ExampleViewModel = hiltViewModel(),
|
||||
) {
|
||||
val state by viewModel.stateFlow.collectAsStateWithLifecycle()
|
||||
|
||||
EventsEffect(viewModel = viewModel) { event ->
|
||||
when (event) {
|
||||
ExampleEvent.NavigateBack -> onNavigateBack()
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
BitwardenScaffold(
|
||||
topBar = {
|
||||
BitwardenTopAppBar(
|
||||
title = stringResource(R.string.title),
|
||||
navigationIcon = rememberVectorPainter(BitwardenDrawable.ic_back),
|
||||
onNavigationIconClick = remember(viewModel) {
|
||||
{ viewModel.trySendAction(ExampleAction.BackClick) }
|
||||
},
|
||||
)
|
||||
},
|
||||
) {
|
||||
// UI content
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:** `app/src/main/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/ui/auth/feature/login/LoginScreen.kt` (see `LoginScreen` composable)
|
||||
|
||||
**Essential Requirements:**
|
||||
- ✅ Use `hiltViewModel()` for dependency injection
|
||||
- ✅ Use `collectAsStateWithLifecycle()` for state (not `collectAsState()`)
|
||||
- ✅ Use `EventsEffect(viewModel)` for one-shot events
|
||||
- ✅ Use `remember(viewModel) { }` for stable callbacks to prevent recomposition
|
||||
- ✅ Use `Bitwarden*` prefixed components from `:ui` module
|
||||
|
||||
**State Hoisting Rules:**
|
||||
- **ViewModel state**: Data that needs to survive process death or affects business logic
|
||||
- **UI-only state**: Temporary UI state (scroll position, text field focus) using `remember` or `rememberSaveable`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### D. Data Layer Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
The data layer follows strict patterns for repositories, managers, and data sources.
|
||||
|
||||
**Interface + Implementation Separation (ALWAYS)**
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [Data Layer template](templates.md#data-layer-template-repository--hilt-module)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
// Interface (injected via Hilt)
|
||||
interface ExampleRepository {
|
||||
suspend fun fetchData(id: String): ExampleResult
|
||||
val dataFlow: StateFlow<DataState<ExampleData>>
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Implementation (NOT directly injected)
|
||||
class ExampleRepositoryImpl(
|
||||
private val exampleDiskSource: ExampleDiskSource,
|
||||
private val exampleService: ExampleService,
|
||||
) : ExampleRepository {
|
||||
override suspend fun fetchData(id: String): ExampleResult {
|
||||
// NO exceptions thrown - return Result or sealed class
|
||||
return exampleService.getData(id).fold(
|
||||
onSuccess = { ExampleResult.Success(it.toModel()) },
|
||||
onFailure = { ExampleResult.Error(it.message) },
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Sealed result class (domain-specific)
|
||||
sealed class ExampleResult {
|
||||
data class Success(val data: ExampleData) : ExampleResult()
|
||||
data class Error(val message: String?) : ExampleResult()
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Hilt Module
|
||||
@Module
|
||||
@InstallIn(SingletonComponent::class)
|
||||
object ExampleRepositoryModule {
|
||||
@Provides
|
||||
@Singleton
|
||||
fun provideExampleRepository(
|
||||
exampleDiskSource: ExampleDiskSource,
|
||||
exampleService: ExampleService,
|
||||
): ExampleRepository = ExampleRepositoryImpl(exampleDiskSource, exampleService)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:**
|
||||
- `app/src/main/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/data/auth/repository/AuthRepository.kt`
|
||||
- `app/src/main/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/data/tools/generator/repository/di/GeneratorRepositoryModule.kt`
|
||||
|
||||
**Three-Layer Data Architecture:**
|
||||
1. **Data Sources** - Raw data access (network, disk, SDK). Return `Result<T>`, never throw.
|
||||
2. **Managers** - Single responsibility business logic. Wrap OS/external services.
|
||||
3. **Repositories** - Aggregate sources/managers. Return domain-specific sealed classes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules:**
|
||||
- ❌ **NEVER** throw exceptions in data layer
|
||||
- ✅ **ALWAYS** use interface + `...Impl` pattern
|
||||
- ✅ **ALWAYS** inject interfaces, never implementations
|
||||
- ✅ Data sources return `Result<T>`, repositories return domain sealed classes
|
||||
- ✅ Use `StateFlow` for continuously observed data
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### E. UI Components
|
||||
|
||||
**Use Existing Components First:**
|
||||
|
||||
The `:ui` module provides reusable `Bitwarden*` prefixed components. Search before creating new ones.
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Components:**
|
||||
- `BitwardenFilledButton` - Primary action buttons
|
||||
- `BitwardenOutlinedButton` - Secondary action buttons
|
||||
- `BitwardenTextField` - Text input fields
|
||||
- `BitwardenPasswordField` - Password input with show/hide
|
||||
- `BitwardenSwitch` - Toggle switches
|
||||
- `BitwardenTopAppBar` - Toolbar/app bar
|
||||
- `BitwardenScaffold` - Screen container with scaffold
|
||||
- `BitwardenBasicDialog` - Simple dialogs
|
||||
- `BitwardenLoadingDialog` - Loading indicators
|
||||
|
||||
**Component Discovery:**
|
||||
Search `ui/src/main/kotlin/com/bitwarden/ui/platform/components/` for existing `Bitwarden*` components. See **Codebase Discovery** in `CLAUDE.md` for search commands.
|
||||
|
||||
**When to Create New Reusable Components:**
|
||||
- Component used in 3+ places
|
||||
- Component needs consistent theming across app
|
||||
- Component has semantic meaning (accessibility)
|
||||
- Component has complex state management
|
||||
|
||||
**New Component Requirements:**
|
||||
- Prefix with `Bitwarden`
|
||||
- Accept themed colors/styles from `BitwardenTheme`
|
||||
- Include preview composables for testing
|
||||
- Support accessibility (content descriptions, semantics)
|
||||
|
||||
**String Resources:**
|
||||
|
||||
New strings belong in the `:ui` module: `ui/src/main/res/values/strings.xml`
|
||||
|
||||
- Use typographic apostrophes and quotes to avoid escape characters: `you'll` not `you\'ll`, `“word”` not `\"word\"`
|
||||
- Reference strings via generated `BitwardenString` resource IDs
|
||||
- Do not add strings to other modules unless explicitly instructed
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### F. Security Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**Encrypted vs Unencrypted Storage:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [Security templates](templates.md#security-templates)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
class ExampleDiskSourceImpl(
|
||||
encryptedSharedPreferences: SharedPreferences,
|
||||
sharedPreferences: SharedPreferences,
|
||||
) : BaseEncryptedDiskSource(
|
||||
encryptedSharedPreferences = encryptedSharedPreferences,
|
||||
sharedPreferences = sharedPreferences,
|
||||
),
|
||||
ExampleDiskSource {
|
||||
fun storeAuthToken(token: String) {
|
||||
putEncryptedString(KEY_TOKEN, token) // Sensitive — uses base class method
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
fun storeThemePreference(isDark: Boolean) {
|
||||
putBoolean(KEY_THEME, isDark) // Non-sensitive — uses base class method
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Android Keystore (Biometric Keys):**
|
||||
- User-scoped encryption keys: `BiometricsEncryptionManager`
|
||||
- Keys stored in Android Keystore (hardware-backed when available)
|
||||
- Integrity validation on biometric state changes
|
||||
|
||||
**Input Validation:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
// Validation returns boolean, NEVER throws
|
||||
interface RequestValidator {
|
||||
fun validate(request: Request): Boolean
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Sanitization removes dangerous content
|
||||
fun String?.sanitizeTotpUri(issuer: String?, username: String?): String? {
|
||||
if (this.isNullOrBlank()) return null
|
||||
// Sanitize and return safe value
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Security Checklist:**
|
||||
- ✅ Use `@EncryptedPreferences` for credentials, keys, tokens
|
||||
- ✅ Use `@UnencryptedPreferences` for UI state, preferences
|
||||
- ✅ Use `@IgnoredOnParcel` for sensitive ViewModel state
|
||||
- ❌ **NEVER** log sensitive data (passwords, tokens, vault items)
|
||||
- ✅ Validate all user input before processing
|
||||
- ✅ Use Timber for non-sensitive logging only
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### G. Testing Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**ViewModel Testing:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Template**: See [Testing templates](templates.md#testing-templates)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
class ExampleViewModelTest : BaseViewModelTest() {
|
||||
private val mockRepository: ExampleRepository = mockk()
|
||||
|
||||
@Test
|
||||
fun `ButtonClick should fetch data and update state`() = runTest {
|
||||
val expectedResult = ExampleResult.Success(data = "test")
|
||||
coEvery { mockRepository.fetchData(any()) } returns expectedResult
|
||||
|
||||
val viewModel = createViewModel()
|
||||
viewModel.trySendAction(ExampleAction.ButtonClick)
|
||||
|
||||
viewModel.stateFlow.test {
|
||||
assertEquals(EXPECTED_STATE.copy(data = "test"), awaitItem())
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
private fun createViewModel(): ExampleViewModel = ExampleViewModel(
|
||||
savedStateHandle = SavedStateHandle(mapOf(KEY_STATE to EXPECTED_STATE)),
|
||||
repository = mockRepository,
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:** `app/src/test/kotlin/com/x8bit/bitwarden/ui/tools/feature/generator/GeneratorViewModelTest.kt`
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Testing Patterns:**
|
||||
- ✅ Extend `BaseViewModelTest` for proper dispatcher management
|
||||
- ✅ Use `runTest` from `kotlinx.coroutines.test`
|
||||
- ✅ Use Turbine's `.test { awaitItem() }` for Flow assertions
|
||||
- ✅ Use MockK: `coEvery` for suspend functions, `every` for sync
|
||||
- ✅ Test both state changes and event emissions
|
||||
- ✅ Test both success and failure Result paths
|
||||
|
||||
**Flow Testing with Turbine:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
// Test state and events simultaneously
|
||||
viewModel.stateEventFlow(backgroundScope) { stateFlow, eventFlow ->
|
||||
viewModel.trySendAction(ExampleAction.Submit)
|
||||
assertEquals(ExpectedState.Loading, stateFlow.awaitItem())
|
||||
assertEquals(ExampleEvent.ShowSuccess, eventFlow.awaitItem())
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**MockK Quick Reference:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
coEvery { repository.fetchData(any()) } returns Result.success("data") // Suspend
|
||||
every { diskSource.getData() } returns "cached" // Sync
|
||||
coVerify { repository.fetchData("123") } // Verify
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### H. Clock/Time Handling
|
||||
|
||||
All code needing current time must inject `Clock` for testability.
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Requirements:**
|
||||
- ✅ Inject `Clock` via Hilt in ViewModels
|
||||
- ✅ Pass `Clock` as parameter in extension functions
|
||||
- ✅ Use `clock.instant()` to get current time
|
||||
- ❌ Never call `Instant.now()` or `DateTime.now()` directly
|
||||
- ❌ Never use `mockkStatic` for datetime classes in tests
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern Summary:**
|
||||
```kotlin
|
||||
// ViewModel with Clock
|
||||
class MyViewModel @Inject constructor(
|
||||
private val clock: Clock,
|
||||
) {
|
||||
val timestamp = clock.instant()
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Extension function with Clock parameter
|
||||
fun State.getTimestamp(clock: Clock): Instant =
|
||||
existingTime ?: clock.instant()
|
||||
|
||||
// Test with fixed clock
|
||||
val FIXED_CLOCK = Clock.fixed(
|
||||
Instant.parse("2023-10-27T12:00:00Z"),
|
||||
ZoneOffset.UTC
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference:**
|
||||
- `docs/STYLE_AND_BEST_PRACTICES.md` (see Time and Clock Handling section)
|
||||
- `core/src/main/kotlin/com/bitwarden/core/di/CoreModule.kt` (see `provideClock` function)
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Gotchas:**
|
||||
- ❌ `Instant.now()` creates hidden dependency, non-testable
|
||||
- ❌ `mockkStatic(Instant::class)` is fragile, can leak between tests
|
||||
- ✅ `Clock.fixed(...)` provides deterministic test behavior
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
## Bitwarden-Specific Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**General anti-patterns are documented in CLAUDE.md.** This section covers violations specific to Bitwarden's State-Action-Event, navigation, and data layer patterns:
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER update ViewModel state directly in coroutines**
|
||||
- Post internal actions, update state synchronously in `handleAction()`
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER inject `...Impl` classes**
|
||||
- Only inject interfaces via Hilt
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER create navigation without `@Serializable` routes**
|
||||
- No string-based navigation, always type-safe
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER use raw `Result<T>` in repositories**
|
||||
- Use domain-specific sealed classes for better error handling
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER make state classes without `@Parcelize`**
|
||||
- All ViewModel state must survive process death
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER skip `SavedStateHandle` persistence for ViewModels**
|
||||
- Users lose form progress on process death
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER forget `@IgnoredOnParcel` for passwords/tokens**
|
||||
- Causes security vulnerability (sensitive data in parcel)
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER use generic `Exception` catching**
|
||||
- Catch specific exceptions only (`RemoteException`, `IOException`)
|
||||
|
||||
❌ **NEVER call `Instant.now()` or `DateTime.now()` directly**
|
||||
- Inject `Clock` via Hilt, use `clock.instant()` for testability
|
||||

## Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
For build, test, and codebase discovery commands, see the **Codebase Discovery**, **Testing**, and **Deployment** sections in `CLAUDE.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
**File Reference Format:**
|
||||
When pointing to specific code, use: `file_path:line_number`
|
||||
|
||||
Example: `ui/src/main/kotlin/com/bitwarden/ui/platform/base/BaseViewModel.kt` (see `handleAction` method)

|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
This skill captures **Bitwarden-specific patterns** that distinguish this codebase:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **State-Action-Event ViewModel pattern** - Synchronous state updates via `handleAction()`
