doesnt look like it with some not-so-in-depth debugging

When following setup tutorial for intellijIdea https://ktor.io/quickstart/intellij-idea.html I saw a strange behavior: Step 6 declares this: Wait a few seconds for Gradle to run, and you should see a project structure like the following (with a few other files and directories): And structure must be like this: But actually Idea doesn't create a source sets files and directories.

When I'm trying to create fatJar by using

com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins:shadow:

I found in docs two different lines to applying this plugin: 1)

apply plugin: 'com.github.johnrengelman.plugin-shadow'

here https://ktor.io/servers/deploy.html#fat-jar-gradle 2)

apply plugin: "com.github.johnrengelman.shadow"

here https://ktor.io/quickstart/docker.html#package-an-application-using-gradle What the diferences between them? with second line I succesfully create a fatJar - this is definitely true. ) with first line yesterday I had a problems - but it is not exactly. Message about it I write earlier https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0A974TJ9/p1524754499000390

Documentation section of deploying to heroku https://ktor.io/servers/deploy.html#heroku does not say anything about modifying build.gradle to add this line of code

task stage(dependsOn: ['shadowJar'])

Newbie user can stuck with it a little bit) more info here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/deploying-gradle-apps-on-heroku#verify-that-your-build-file-is-set-up-correctly

Who can help me with deploying to heroku? I can't understand why it not work. project here https://github.com/nailgilaziev/wsUpper I try to run it locally via comands:

./gradlew stage
heroku local web

And it works. App available on localhost:8080 After pushing to heroku via

git push heroku master

it says that all is okay and write to console this: https://afternoon-sierra-23732.herokuapp.com/ deployed to Heroku I tried to modify

application.conf

and change port to 80 and 8080 vice versa. none of the options helped. And now I can't understand what are I'm doing wrong.

Hi there. Is it possible to configurate/simulate a slow server response for the whole ktor project?

Hello, are there any good example ktor apps?

Is there an intuitive way to use the

Sessions

feature with

Authentication

?

authenticate {
            location<Manual> {
                authenticate("kchatAuth1") {
                    get {
                        call.respondText("Success")
                    }
                }
            }
        }

I only get the

ApplicationCall

object once I'm already inside of the

get {...}

and at that point checking to see if there's an existing session is too late

I'm using Locations with a form,

method=get

. I can't create the URL with

locations.href

because I don't have the

GET

parameters, they're filled in by the form. Is there a better way of doing this, or is it just an edge case and I'm better leaving it as a hard-coded string?

Would people be interested in a session storage implementation backed by redis? I needed it for a project, but I don't mind open sourcing it. (Unlike the example in https://ktor.io/features/sessions.html, it has tests, and is non-blocking.)

I know it's not necessary to run the app since the previous steps are working fine

When starting a server with port = 0, is there a way to tell what random port it ends up binding to?

Hello everybody! Is it possible to use Ktor to build a SOAP client?

Also, is there a sample for doing a file download w/ it (or even better

recieveFile

in response object...)?

Hello, I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I fail to understand if I can use ktor to make a website? All the examples I see are just returning plain text to requests, while a website would be made of many HTML files. I think I'm looking for a PHP replacement but am very confused with all the things I am finding. I just want to make a website, but using Kotlin instead of PHP. Is ktor what I'm looking for? If not what is?

or is there a way for me to add new file-ending --> mimeType mappings without modifying the source?

does Ktor plan to support graphql

Hm.. Can not believe it is impossible to set custom headers for HTTP client 🙂 I try elaborate my issue. So, I play with this code:

val response = client.call("some/url") {
        contentType(ContentType.Application.Json)
        method = <http://HttpMethod.Post|HttpMethod.Post>
        headers = HeadersBuilder ()
        body = data
    }

But compiler climes "Val can not be reassigned" against

headers

. So. how are you settings custom client headers?

haven't tried it or looked too much in depth yet, but do the ktor client libraries support talking to unix sockets?

Hello, I'm having a weird issue with sessions. They work fine when I use the in-memory storage, but when I switch to directory storage my requests start crashing with

java.util.NoSuchElementException: No session data found for id

, no code in the stack trace is my code so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

Is there a reason why

ApplicationConfigValue

only has the

getString

function and not the

getInt

,

getLong

, etc from hocon's

Config

class?

I'd like to observe the outcome of the Authentication feature and set a header accordingly so that the front-end can keep track of whether or not the back-end thinks that there is an authenticated user. (I can't just rely on 401, etc, because some endpoints work with and without an authenticated user.) I can set response headers inside a `SessionAuthenticationProvider`'s

validate

, but that only applies when a session is present, so it won't get hit on a request with no session or an invalid session cookie. What would be a better place to apply the header that can access

call.authentication.principal()

or equivalent, yet will also get called on requests without sessions, etc?

Hey! the ktor gson module only responds with application/json when the client asks for it. Is there a way to change this behavior?

Do you install Locations?

I needed CSRF protection for a Ktor service, and didn't find anything out there, so I made a little library. https://bitbucket.org/marshallpierce/ktor-csrf/src/master/ I'm not sure I'm wiring it into the pipeline correctly; does this look right? https://bitbucket.org/marshallpierce/ktor-csrf/src/3ff20b83033890facd74e4983829e287841e6533/src/main/kotlin/org/mpierce/ktor/csrf/CsrfPrevention.kt#lines-41

The actual response to the request is sent immediately, the delayed query doesn't affect anything other than the database

Question: when trying the Chat sample application using two browsers in the same computer, I get messages sent only to one of such browsers
