The README's "Wiring relays into the store" tutorial used a
per-subscription SubscriptionListener.onEvent callback to feed the
store. EventCollector landed exactly to remove that boilerplate, so
update the example to register one connection-level collector at app
init and stop wiring listeners per subscribe() call.
The "Building a reactive feed UI" example showed project() ->
stateIn(WhileSubscribed) but never opened the relay subscription.
Bind it to the projection's collection lifecycle with .onStart {
client.subscribe } / .onCompletion { client.unsubscribe }, so the
relay subscription's lifetime equals the UI collector's. Also
demonstrate ProjectionState.filterItems for narrowing without a
re-query.
Drop the redundant client.connect() call from the wiring example
and add an explicit note (in both README and CLIENT) that
NostrClient connects on demand from subscribe()/publish() — connect()
is only useful after disconnect().
Other small fixes:
- client.send(...) -> client.publish(...) (the actual API name).
- Rename the variable from `observable` to `db` to match the demoApp
code and the conceptual "this is the local database" framing.
- Wrap the publish path in a viewModelScope.launch so the snippet
is copy-pasteable into a ViewModel.
Companion to the existing RELAY.md, this guide covers the client side:
Ktor WebSocket transport implementation, subscribing to events (Flow
and callback APIs), publishing signed events, filters, key management,
and multi-relay patterns.
