Making external data identifiable

[JaapWijnen]

I have an array of objects that I get from an api that I download at some point in my TCA app. Now these objects arent Identifiable by themselves, but I want to display a list of navigationlinks linking to a detail page of each individual object. So in order to keep swiftUI happy I need to give them an ID which I'd do through my environment which contains a var uuid: () -> UUID The thing is I can't put these objects in an IdentifiedArrayOf or IdentifiedArray since they're not Identifiable nor have a keypath to an ID (the requirements for the IdentifiedArray initializers.
I'm thinking however would it be an option to give some more api to an extension of Array where the element is Identified. Then I can just map over my objects to wrap them in an Identified struct and supply that with my env.uuid
(Identified has an initializer init(value: Value, id: (Value) -> ID)
This could be done by just matching the api of IdentifiedArray in an extension or extracting that out to a protocol and conform both IdentifiedArray and [Identified] to that same protocol. Any thoughts on this? Maybe this is not such a good idea and I should approach my problem in an entirely different way? Let me know! :)
