Is there a way to download all dependencies for Android before the build with Kotlin Script Gradle? I'm trying to pre-cache all my dependencies nightly to speed up our CI builds.

I think kscript had a way of doing this: https://github.com/kscripting/kscript#deploy-scripts-as-standalone-binaries but not the built in .kts scripts...I usually used kscript for CI builds but the wrapped executable is fairly large.

Hello there 🤩 How to send function as a parameter to Fragment with newInstance Approach is there a way to send function as a parameter into bundle ?

Do we have a place to quickly dry test coroutines/flow code, just like Kotlin playground? Spinning up a new project with coroutine dependency every now and then is exhausting.

Hi, I just wrote another article on Medium about Jetpack Compose. I’d really love your feedback

Is there a android api level vs java version map? I see library beginning to bump to jvm target 11, I bumped my as well

tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).configureEach { task ->
    task.kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = "11"
    }
}

and it seems to work no problem, so..what's the catch?¨'

Please suggest any proper way of setting elevation and shadows to a composable in Jetpack compose. Also, Please suggest the right approach to design instagram like comments UI with endless nested comments and replies. Also, pls share a detailed PDF notes to master Kotlin Android and Kotlin development.

Today's woes 😅😅 I've created an android library, here's the thing, this library requires a cpp .a library file in order to build successfully, which should not be declared in the library but in the project adding it as a dependency. Leads?

Hello I have bellow Button :

<Button
    android:id="@+id/profileButton"
    android:layout_width="28dp"
    android:layout_height="28dp"
    android:layout_marginStart="200dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="7dp"
    android:background="@drawable/round_corners_avatar"
    android:text="AL"
    android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
    android:onClick="profileBtnClicked"
    android:textSize="16sp" />

I would like to change the

android:layout_marginStart

parameter based on the information i receive from

resources.displayMetrics.density

However I do not know how to access marginStart parameter programatically. Any clues would be much appreciated.

I'm trying out AS flamingo and updated to AGP

8.0.0-beta01

. now I have to use the correct import for the R class when a resource is in a different module. is this intended? normally, one can use the R of the current module and get access to all other resources in all other modules automatically. it's now

com.example.text.R.string.

instead of

R.string.

(with

import com.example.ui.R

)

Hi guys, Anyone can help me on

Flow

or

Channel

in kotlin? I want to build a

Queue

for commands. Thanks

Sorry if this is not a strictly Kotlin question, but I don’t know a better place to ask it (if you do, please let me know). It’s about the new predictive back gesture API, which in Android 14 it’s going to enabled by default. Can anyone explain what’s going to happen if such API is not implemented by an app, will the Back button stop working or will the behavior of the app stay the same?

Hello team! Does twitter has any official Android SDK for oAuth?

Hello, I’m queuing network requests when device is offline in db and service picks it up and runs when device comes online. I was using rx java before, I moved whole thing to coroutines now and facing some issues which is blocking other network call until all my queued requests are complete. say, If I have 1000 requests queued and when I run it on dispatcher.io using limitedParallelism(5) it blocks other network calls that happens from app. Can someone please help . You can find the code snippet below.

withContext(dispatchers.network.limitedParallelism(5)) {
            async { //build queuedrequest list }
            queuedRequests.awaitAll() 
            // then I process the request.
}

Android Service calls the above code snippet

scope = CoroutineScope(<http://dispatchers.io|dispatchers.io> + SupervisorJob())

// Then
scope.launch { 
// calling the above code in repository  
}.launchIn(scope)

Hello I am trying to upgrade Groovy to KTS in an multi-module Android project. But I keep seeing this error and don’t receive any auto suggest and corrections. Can someone explain me or provide me links to read?

An Android question, not Kotlin specific: What do I use to be able to write non-UI tests that run on JVM? I don’t want to have to create an activity like Roboelectric examples suggest. I don’t want a UI test — I just don’t want to have to mock platform dependencies.

Does anybody know if there is a queue to get Google app published and reviews?

after updating my project to Kotlin 1.8.0 I'm getting the following build error:

Execution failed for task ':app:kaptGenerateStubsDebugKotlin'.
> 'compileDebugJavaWithJavac' task (current target is 1.8) and 'kaptGenerateStubsDebugKotlin' task (current target is 17) jvm target compatibility should be set to the same Java version.
  Consider using JVM toolchain: <https://kotl.in/gradle/jvm/toolchain>

but my Gradle config is:

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
kotlinOptions {
    jvmTarget = "1.8"
}

so I'm not sure where target 17 is setup, has somebody experienced the same error?

Hey Dev's, I have a profile button in my

Icon(imageVector = , contentDescription = null)

to the initials of the username? Thank you.

Hello. Why most of mobile developers use Flutter instead of Kotlin Multi-platform? Is Kotlin Multi-platform worse than Flutter?

Code generation for mapper functions (or a best effort) when classes are similar, is there already a AS plugin for that?

@Composable fun BottomStrip() { Row(modifier = Modifier .fillMaxWidth() .height(70.dp) .background(color = colorResource(id = R.color.cgux_background_grey)), horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.End, verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically) { Image( painter = painterResource(id = R.drawable.cgux_ic_keyboard_16), modifier = Modifier .width(36.dp) .height(36.dp) .border(BorderStroke(1.dp, colorResource(id = R.color.cgux_primary_500_base))) .padding(5.dp) .clickable {}, contentDescription = "Expandable Image", colorFilter = ColorFilter.tint( colorResource(id = R.color.cgux_primary_500_base)) ) } }#compose #android #kotlin

Hi all, I have a composable function as above . My idea is to align image to right of Row with some padding on all sides of Image. I also have to create border around image , which I did using border modifier. The problem I'm facing is when I set border to Image , the padding is lost which means I don't see padding for Image. Image touch right end of the screen. Is there a way we can have padding for border as well. #compose #android #kotlin

Hi all, I am facing one problem in compose where if I change the input text to some format then set it to the field on onValueChange the cursor position is not placed in the right position meaning . I want the cursor position every time at the end of the string . @Composable

val textState = mutableStateOf("")
OutlinedTextField(
    value = textState.value,
    onValueChange = {
          textState.value = convertToTSP(it)
        })


fun convertToTSP(val:String){
return (NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.getDefault()) as DecimalFormat).apply {
            val tsp = "##,###.##"
            applyPattern(tsp)
        }.format(value.toDouble())
}

While doing like this my cursor is not placed at the end of the string every time. Instead it placed around somewhere middle in between the string. I've also tried VisualTransformation for this but It cause one more issue where on tap on anywhere in the textfield my cursor is not moving anywhere other than the end of the text. Is anyone faced these similar issue? Please let if there any ways to solve this issue. Thanks in Advance #compose #android

Is it possible to test views with integration tests (using Robolectric) or do I need to write UI tests? Could I in theory create a Binding for the View and unit test it that way?

Hi guys, ios has the api devicecheck that returns a token with 2 binaries that you could set, it allows for example to know if a device has already received a promotion if will return the same value even when app has been reinstated. Is there any equivalent on android
