Description

🎯 The objective

Connect the MessageListFragment and ViewModel to the new data loading mechanisms. This brings the feature to the user by enabling infinite scrolling (lazy loading) and updating the pull-to-refresh logic.

🎒 Resources

ℹ️ List all relevant resources like BugZilla meta bugs, Figma files, Notion links and other files. These can be filled in later.

🦮 Rules of the Road

🟢 In Scope
  • Trigger infinite loading events when the user scrolls near the end.
  • Migrate pull-to-refresh logic to use the RemoteMediator.
🔴 Out of Scope
  • Changes to the Visual Design of the list items (unless loading indicators require it).
🚧 Technical and/or Business Requirements
  • Lazy Loading:
    • The fragment must trigger a load event before the user hits the absolute bottom.
    • Delegate data retrieval to the Remote Mediator via the VM.
    • Design Requirement: May need a design iteration for the "Loading more data" indicator.
  • Pull-to-refresh:
    • Must propagate the refresh request to the VM -> Remote Mediator to fetch new data from remote specifically.
