get activity from conductor controller

Question

I'm using conductor and I want to initialize GoogleApiClient in it. As it is told in conductor doc, Conductor is made for replacing a Fragment. In Fragment I can easily get an activity. Is there a way do to that in conductor?

class SignInController : Controller(), GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener {

    private lateinit var mGoogleApiClient: GoogleApiClient
    private lateinit var mFirebaseAuth: FirebaseAuth

    override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup): View {
        val view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.controller_sign_in, container, false)
        val gso = GoogleSignInOptions.Builder(GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN)
                .requestIdToken(view.context.getString(R.string.default_web_client_id))
                .requestEmail()
                .build()
        mGoogleApiClient = GoogleApiClient.Builder(view.context)
                .enableAutoManage(view.context /* I need an activity here */, this /* OnConnectionFailedListener */)
                .addApi(Auth.GOOGLE_SIGN_IN_API, gso)
                .build()

        mFirebaseAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance()

        return view
    }
}

I tried to use a view.context instead of activity but it doesn't work. It requires only FragmentActivty. How to initialize GoogleApiClient inside conductor or to pass it there? I wouldn't like to use DI here.

I found the solution of this issue: It's very simple. The view.context is already the MyActivity and I just need to cast it:

GoogleApiClient.Builder(view.context).enableAutoManage(view.context as MyActivity, this)

You also can get parent activity just by calling getActivity() in your controller
