Uno Mvux Feed Basics

MVUX Feed Basics — Agent Skill

Workflow

Docs lookup: call uno_platform_docs_search(...) first, then uno_platform_docs_fetch(sourcePath="…") using the sourcePath field from a result (a relative .md path; add the result's anchor for a section). Never pass a URL, a .html link, or a hand-built path.

Step 1: Fetch the Feed Reference Documentation

Search for and fetch the feed documentation:

uno_platform_docs_search("MVUX Feed IFeed async data creation")

Primary documentation pages:

• Feed Reference: external/uno.extensions/doc/Reference/Reactive/feed.md
• Simple Feed How-To: external/uno.extensions/doc/Learn/Mvux/Walkthrough/SimpleFeed.howto.md

Fetch the reference page for complete API details:

uno_platform_docs_fetch(sourcePath="external/uno.extensions/doc/Reference/Reactive/feed.md")

Step 2: Learn Feed Creation Methods

From the fetched docs, the key factory methods on the Feed static class are:

• Feed.Async(...) — from a Task<T> returning method
• Feed.AsyncEnumerable(...) — from an IAsyncEnumerable<T>
• Feed.Create(...) — from a custom async function

Step 3: For Feed Operators (Select, Where)

If the user needs to transform feed data, search for operators:

uno_platform_docs_search("MVUX feed operators Select Where transform")

The feed reference page covers all operators in the "Operators" section.

Step 4: For Feed Refresh / Signal

If the user needs to trigger a feed refresh:

uno_platform_docs_search("MVUX feed refresh Signal trigger reload")

The feed reference page has a section on Signal for manual refresh triggers.

Step 5: For How-To Walkthroughs

For step-by-step examples of showing feed data on the UI:

uno_platform_docs_fetch(sourcePath="external/uno.extensions/doc/Learn/Mvux/Walkthrough/SimpleFeed.howto.md")

This covers binding feed data, showing errors, and using feeds inside DataTemplates.

Key Principles (Stable)

• IFeed<T> is read-only — it cannot be updated from the UI
• Feeds automatically track loading/error/none/value states
• Feeds are stateless — they don't cache values (use IState<T> for caching)
• The service method should accept a CancellationToken parameter for proper cancellation
• Service return types should use ValueTask<T> or Task<T>
• For collections, use IListFeed<T> instead (see uno-mvux-listfeed skill)
