Hey everyone, I am working on kmp project and want to create a custom gradle convention plugin for setting up compose multiplatform UI testing. But I don't know how to add below dependencies because we cannot directly reference the

compose.uiTest

compose.desktop.currentOs

. Any ideas how to do that??

Copy code

commonTest.dependencies {
            @OptIn(ExperimentalComposeLibrary::class)
            implementation(compose.uiTest)
        }

        desktopTest.dependencies {
            implementation(compose.desktop.currentOs)
        }

I have a dependency on a file-based jar

implementation(files("libs/slf4j-android-1.6.1-rc1.jar"))

that I want to exclude from

configuration.testImplementation { exclude("org.slf4j"}

but it doesn't seem to work. mockk is complaining that

Log.i

isn't a mock object

👋 Hey all i've noticed this cool feature `TYPESAFE_PROJECT_ACCESSORS`which is in experimental from Gradle 7.0 Are there any downsides in enabling this? Is team considering to move this feature to stable sometime?

I'm working on a custom Gradle setup using Kotlin DSL, and while exploring the nowinandroid project—specifically the convention/build.gradle.kts and libs.versions.toml files—I noticed an inconsistency in how plugin IDs are accessed from the

libs.versions.toml

version catalog in the

build-logic:convention

module.

I'm using kotlin 2.1.20 and gradle 8.10, getting this error, have any idea how to resolve this?

Copy code

plugins -> kotlin("multiplatform") version "2.1.20"
kotlin {

    jvm {
        binaries {
            executable {

            }
        }
    }
    js(IR) {
        binaries.executable()
        browser {
            commonWebpackConfig {}
        }
    }
.....

e: 'java' Gradle plugin is not compatible with 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.multiplatform' plugin. Consider adding a new subproject with 'java' plugin where the KMP project is added as a dependency. e: 'application' (also applies 'java' plugin) Gradle plugin is not compatible with 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.multiplatform' plugin. Consider the new KMP/JVM binaries DSL as a replacement: https://kotl.in/jvm-binaries-dsl

Calling for help. While building project got compilation warning

Copy code

Detected a @Composable function that overrides an open function compiled with older compiler that is known to crash at runtime. Consider recompiling the dependency with a newer compiler version (>= 2.1.20) to get correct behavior

But these 2 modules (dependent and dependency) are compiled with the same version of Kotlin Compose compiler 2.2.0-Beta1 I've made the small reproducer for this warning: https://github.com/hondogo/CustomKotlinCompilerPluginFailureRepro/tree/compose-version-warning I'd appreciate any help, thanks!

Hi everyone, I am creating a reusable ui-testing module for a KMP project but facing some problems with

compose.uiTest

dependency. I added this dependency in the

ui-testing

module like this. But it has no effect on the module(home) where I implemented

ui-testing

module. However, it works when I defined below dependency directly in the home module. Could anyone please help me with this?

Copy code

commonTest.dependencies {
    @OptIn(ExperimentalComposeLibrary::class)
    api(compose.uiTest)
}

Declarative Gradle EAP 3 webinar is going live in 30 minutes - https://gradle.com/events/Declarative-Gradle-developer-first-approach-to-Gradle-builds-04-25/ It is not exactly Kotlin specific, but the Declarative Gradle syntax is inspired by Kotlin, and there are already experimental software types for Kotlin and KMP projects

Hello! Is

com.android.kotlin.multiplatform.library

incompatible with

applyDefaultHierarchyTemplate

? I used the following code:

Copy code

kotlin {
    @OptIn(ExperimentalKotlinGradlePluginApi::class)
    applyDefaultHierarchyTemplate {
        common {
            group("java") {
                withAndroidTarget()
                withJvm()
            }
        }
    }
}

But it doesn't seem to work,

androidMain

is not successfully included in

javaMain

. I can't import the dependencies added to

javaMain

androidMain

Copy code

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        getByName("javaMain").dependencies {
            implementation(libs.jna.platform)
        }
    }
}

Am not able to run unit tests with using

./gradlew test

from the command line... Using

Gradle 8.14

wrote a kts project and whereas it was working before in my macOS based command line:

Copy code

./gradlew clean test
Reusing configuration cache.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 750ms

Am able to run my tests from IntelliJ but this is all it does?

With the new DSL for launching JVM apps, is there a way to run proguard on the jar for launch and distribution? Looking at the DefaultKotlinJvmBinariesDsl source, I’m not sure the necessary hooks are currently public (e.g.

jarTask

) although I wanted to see if someone else has explored this. I’ve got a working series of custom tasks for building a fat jar, then a proguard jar from the fat jar, and was curious if this new DSL could simplify things down.

Are we supposed to be able to declare Kotlin multiplatform targets in convention plugins? It seems to work for js, wasmJs, and native targets. But fails for jvm and android targets.

Hi Community, I've a small doubt regarding Gradle dependencies. Please have look at it 🙂 If I created a module say

testing

and add some dependencies in the

commonMain

source set:

Copy code

commonMain.dependencies {
            @OptIn(ExperimentalComposeLibrary::class)
            api(compose.uiTest)
        }
        desktopMain.dependencies {
            api(compose.desktop.currentOs)
        }

And implements this module into another module, i.e.,

home

module in the

commonTest

source set:

Copy code

commonTest.dependencies {
            implementation(projects.uiTesting)
        }

Will the dependencies added in the

commonMain

inside

testing

module included into the build-artifact/APK?

The documentation here shows that I can add dependencies simply by doing the below (Which is what I’ve had for quite a long time).

Copy code

kotlin {
  sourceSets {
    commonMain.dependencies { }
  }
}

However in Kotlin 2.1.20 (Multiplatform) it shows this lint warning under the

dependencies

text > Suspicious receiver type; this does not apply to the current receiver of type NamedDomainObjectContainer. This will apply to a receiver of type NamedDomainObjectProvider, found in one of the enclosing lambdas. Make sure it’s declared in the right place in the file. What should be the approach here instead? It seems like the documentation should be updated

Hello Everyone 🙂 I wanted to ask about declaring test dependencies as

api

instead of

implementation

When we define some test-dependency for a module, eg - testing
, like this:

Copy code

commonTest.dependencies {
    api(compose.uiTest)
}

Then we cannot access that dependency in a module where I'm implementing

testing

module. However, using api should make the dependency transitive but it didn't. Is it a bug or a feature? Because I can easily access the dependency if I define it inside

commonMain

source-set using

api

. Please let me know if anyone face this issue and how to deal with it. Thanks :)

If I try to use the Antlr Gradle plugin with the Multiplatform plugin I cannot build since it applies the Java Library plugin. What's the solution here?

Setting

yarn.downloadBaseUrl = null

got deprecated in KGP 2.1. It instructs to use

yarn.downloadBaseUrlProperty

instead, but that is internal. 😕

Hi I am encountered multiple issues with azure gradle plugin https://github.com/microsoft/azure-gradle-plugins I am able to work with v 1.13.0 however this does not have support for Managed Identity (MSI azure functions deployment). If I start upgrading to later version I encounter various issues, in the 1.16.1 I am not able to build and getting Jackson incompatibility errors. Does anyone know if there is support for Azure Managed Identity in 1.16.1 and has that working?

Hi all, I'm hoping someone with Kotlin/Gradle experience can answer my question. Context: my project is still on Kotlin

1.9.24

due to some internal dependency limitations. Question: If I include a 3rd-party dependency that upgrades

org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib

2.0.21

(as can be seen by running

./gradlew :app:dependencies --configuration releaseRuntimeClasspath

) , is that going to cause problems at either compile time or runtime?

I have a multiplatform project where in one of the modules I use some features that need an

--add-opens

argument. As such, I have a few questions about this: • How can I add this JVM argument to the tests in this module? • Is there a way to get the module to add this parameter to some global list of arguments so all other modules that depend on this one doesn't have to explicitly add this argument to their JVM arguments?

I'm in a multimodule project. I have a JVM-only project, and I want to depend on a sibling multiplatform project.

implementation(project(":foo"))

doesn't seem to work. Any tips?
