@fboldog: Thanks, cool to hear @hhariri mentioned Kobalt!

@pabl0rg: Interesting, thanks. Maybe my calculations were off. FYI I don’t even specify the jetty dependencies since they already get pulled by

spark-core

.

@cedric cool, not sure why i had to at the time (something was failing if i didnt, but it was months ago)

This is all I have:

"com.sparkjava:spark-core:2.3”

Is it possible to use Kobalt with Android Studio? I realize there is no plugin, but is it possible to generate/update the IDE metadata files (as the plugin presumably does) by hand when the build file changes?

"by hand" == "via the command line"

@michaelsims: I haven’t investigated. It might be very simple (just some metadata in the plug-in to make it visible to AS) or it might take more work since AS is changing the project structure quite a bit.

Ah ok. Thanks much. Hopefully I will get some time to play around with it soon. If so, I'll make sure to report back.

You mean you’d look into making the IDEA plug-in work on AS? (that would be awesome simple smile )

hah no

😞

I guess I made an assumption that the IDE plugin's sync functionality was basically invoking existing logic that could also be invoked via

kobaltw

The way it works: the plug-in forks a KobaltServer then asks it the dependencies of the current build file. The server returns these dependencies in JSON form and then the plug-in modifies the project structure (libraries and modules) with that information.

This is more involved on Android as you know, since there are

aar

and all kinds of other artifacts.

Right

Ok, I see. Thanks for the info.

@cedric: Do you forgot to push retrofit and okhttp libs in https://github.com/cbeust/kobalt-intellij-plugin/tree/master/lib ?

oh

mmh doesn’t seem so, hold on

They are indeed missing

but git is not showing them as not added, weird

😊

maybe .gitignored by accident

yeah .gitignored simple smile

Fixed.

I hope the changes I’m making are not making your life too difficult merge-wise, let me know if it’s the case and I’ll work in a branch until you’re done.

Thx! I’ll try to integrate this change in my branch, because I still use mock instead of kobalt server...

With these changes, you can just launch your own Kobalt server at any time from the IDEA, should make it a bit easier I think

ping me if you get into any problem getting your work done (merging, starting server, whatever)

@dmitry.zhuravlev: Is there something similar to

ProcessBuilder

in OpenAPI? (trying to launch an external process with

ProcessBuilder

is throwing random weird errors)
