Using WorkManager
WorkManager is a Jetpack library for background operations that can be delayed and can run based on the constraints you set. It is ideal for doing something that must be run but can be done later or at regular intervals, regardless of whether the app is running or not.
You can use WorkManager to run tasks such as fetching the data from the network and storing it in your database at scheduled intervals. WorkManager will run the task even if the app has been closed or if the device restarts. This will keep your database up to date with your backend.
You can add WorkManager to your project by adding the following code to your app/build.gradle file dependencies:
implementation 'androidx.work:work-runtime:2.7.1'
WorkManager can call the repository to fetch and store data from either the local database or the network server.
Let’s try adding WorkManager to an Android project.
