android-paging

All examples of the new paging library have been with Room library and Room creates a Data Source for us. In my own case, I need to create my custom data source. Here is a method in my view model class that ought to return the live data. My livedata always returns null.

After a lot of searching, I know its possible with regular adapter, but I have no idea how to do it using Paging Library. I don`t need code just a clue.

I want the new Ad to be loaded and added in RecyclerView as well just like Instagram shows ads in feeds. So if the user scrolls to 200 items, 20 ads will be shown gradually!!. I have read a couple of tutorials but I haven't figured an easy way to do it. Here is my adapter. class RequestsPagedAdapter( private val retryCallback: () -> Unit, private val from: From) : PagedListAdapter<RequestsQuery.Request,

Iʼm fairly new to developing Android apps and Iʼm trying to do everything “the right way.” So right now, Iʼm implementing the new Android Paging Library into my project, where I need to load a list of articles from a network server. I have an ArticlesRepository class that returns an ArticleList class containing instances of ArticleListItem that I would like to display in a RecyclerView. The list of articles is paginated already on the server, so the repository sends a request for the first page and returns an ArticleList with the page property set to 1 and the articles property containing a
