Jetpack compose – how do I refresh a screen when app returns to foreground

by

I came up with this:

@Composable
fun OnLifecycleEvent(onEvent: (owner: LifecycleOwner, event: Lifecycle.Event) -> Unit) {
    val eventHandler = rememberUpdatedState(onEvent)
    val lifecycleOwner = rememberUpdatedState(LocalLifecycleOwner.current)
    
    DisposableEffect(lifecycleOwner.value) {
        val lifecycle = lifecycleOwner.value.lifecycle
        val observer = LifecycleEventObserver { owner, event ->
            eventHandler.value(owner, event)
        }

        lifecycle.addObserver(observer)
        onDispose {
            lifecycle.removeObserver(observer)
        }
    }
}

It seems to work just fine. But there may be some issues in some cases so be careful.
It is also possible that there is some redundant code.

Usage:

OnLifecycleEvent { owner, event ->
    // do stuff on event
    when (event) {
        Lifecycle.Event.ON_RESUME -> { /* stuff */ }
        else                      -> { /* other stuff */ }
    }
}
