FlowMVI v3.3.0-alpha03 Release Notes

Release Date: 2026-01-04 // 5 months ago

  • 🚀 This is a small release that downgrades kotlin to 2.2.21 until https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-83395 is resolved.
    If you target 2.3.0, keep using alpha02. If you face KT-83395 or any other issues, consider alpha03.


Previous changes from v3.3.0-alpha02

  • 🐎 📊 Performance Metrics

    🆕 New artifact: :metrics is here!

    🐎 With FlowMVI in just a 5 lines of code you can now set up metrics collection to understand the performance and usage patterns of your app!

    ⚡️ FlowMVI metrics collect over 66 different stats including speed of intent handling, state updates, error frequencies, data loading delays, bootstrapping time and lifecycle events, and more, then lets you upload to any popular metrics ingestion service such as OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, OpenMetrics etc, and visualize them in dashboards:

    valmetrics=collectMetrics(
    reportingScope=applicationScope
)
reportMetrics(
    metrics=metrics,
    sink=OtlpJsonSink(BackendSink()), 
)

    ⬆️ The debugger IDE plugin and desktop apps have been upgraded to support the ingestion of metrics and also visualize them in a similar way out of the box, with minimal setup required to send metrics to the debugger:

    Screen.Recording.2025-12-14.at.11.06.00.AM.mov

    🐎 Metrics are being benchmarked and are optimized to minimally influence the performance of your business logic, so that you can just plug them in your store configuration once and enjoy the benefits everywhere.

    📚 Get started by reading the documentation

    🚀 New Hooks:

    • onActionDispatch hook will trigger when side-effects are dequeued , as opposed to onAction which triggers when enqueued
    • onIntentEnqueue hook will trigger when intents are enqueued , as opposed to onIntent which triggers when dequeued

    ShutdownContext

    ShutdownContext now implements StoreLifecycle which holds a reference to the last store lifetime. Previously, any lifecycle was
    grabbed from the Store itself which may not be the one that onStop was invoked with. This should improve reliability.

    This may be a behavioral breaking change if you relied on StoreLifecycle inside of onStop. Worth double-checking your onStop hooks to be safe.

    🚢 Other New Stuff

    ⬇️ Note: Debugger of version 3.3.0 may be incompatible with FlowMVI 3.2x and older, downgrade or upgrade one of these to fix.

    • 🔀 Debugger will now merge events from stores if they have the same name
    • ➕ Add debounceIntents decorator
    • ✅ Migrate PluginTestScope to be an interface instead of class.
    • ➕ Add validation to BatchIntentsDecorator modes. Worth re-checking that you don't pass invalid values there before shipping.
    • Each StoreConfiguration now has storeId a unique UUID of the store instance. Using static unique names is now even more important with metrics to aggregate events per-screen reliably.

    🛠 🐞 Bug Fixes

    Important fix : onUndeliveredAction callback wasn't properly wired and was never invoked since 3.1.0, fixed with this release + tests added that should prevent such issues in the future.

    • ➕ add failsafe to debug client store when events can't be deserialized
    • ➕ add failsafe to debug server when events can't be deserialized
    • let StoreConfiguration's state be covariant

    Deps

    • Kotlin 2.3.0-RC3
    • Compose 1.10-rc1
    • Ktor 3.3.3

    ⬆️ Safe upgrade checklist

    • Check onStop callbacks that use StoreLifecycle methods awaitUntilClosed etc for correctness
    • ⬆️ Upgrade debugger IDE plugin
    • Check onUndeliveredAction usages which should now work
    • 🔧 Check batchIntents decorator configuration for validity of passed values
    • 📈 Wire/migrate to onActionDispatch or onIntentEnqueue based on your needs (analytics plugins etc)
