getUserIdOrThrow

Retrieves the authenticated user's ID, or throws if user is not authenticated.

This is a convenience function to get the user ID when authentication is required. If the user ID is empty (not authenticated), this function throws IllegalStateException.

When to Use

• Before operations that require authentication

• In repositories that need the current user ID

• When user ID is mandatory for the operation

Example

suspend fun loadUserData(): Result<UserData> = suspendRunCatching {
    val userId = userPreferencesDataSource.getUserIdOrThrow()
    networkDataSource.fetchUserData(userId)
}
