The Ktor 2.0 tests environment and its testApllicationn and externalServices is a great improvment ! Unfortunately I have a problem to test external services with timeouts. I don't know if I miss something or if it is a bug.

package com.example

import io.ktor.client.*
import io.ktor.client.plugins.*
import io.ktor.client.request.*
import io.ktor.http.*
import io.ktor.server.application.*
import io.ktor.server.response.*
import io.ktor.server.routing.*
import io.ktor.server.testing.*
import kotlin.test.Test
import kotlin.test.assertEquals


fun Application.configureRouting(httpClient: HttpClient) {
    routing {
        get("/test") {
            httpClient.get("<http://fake.site.io/toto>") {
                timeout {
                    requestTimeoutMillis = 100
                }
            }
            call.respondText("Hello World!")
        }
    }
}


class ApplicationTest {
    @Test
    fun testRoot() = testApplication {

        val myClient = createClient {
            install(HttpTimeout)
        }

        application {
            configureRouting(myClient)
        }

        externalServices {
            hosts ("<http://fake.site.io>") {
                routing {
                    get("/toto") {
                        call.respond(HttpStatusCode.OK)
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        myClient.get("/test").apply {
            assertEquals(HttpStatusCode.OK, status)
        }
    }
}

When I execute this code, I receive this exception.

I know official swagger support is on the horizon but, in the mean time, I made this plugin to generate route definitions automatically https://github.com/tabilzad/ktor-docs-plugin

Hei, Just curious why content is marked as internal ? When used together with ResponseObserver, Then I have to use OptIn internal api annotation. I use ResponseObserver to log response body. I donot want to use bodyAsChannel, as it may contain modified response. https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/blob/main/ktor-client/ktor-client-core/common/src/io/ktor/client/statement/HttpResponse.kt#L55-L56

Hello, just a quick question did the CIO Client got moved in 2.0? I just migrated from 1.6.7, and the import

import io.ktor.client.engine.cio.CIO

now show an error. I have

implementation("io.ktor:ktor-client-core:2.0.2")

in the commonMain dependencies of my KMM app, but after looking into the related jar downloaded by Gradle it appear to now be empty.

hello, maybe someone can help me with understanding how to send templates via apache commons email here are details https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72558558/ktor-send-email-with-html-template Thanks in advance!

I am trying to upgrade our code to ktor-client 2.0.2, but getting into a weird situation. ContentNegotiation works and sends JSON (setBody(someMap)) on a POST, but the server rejects it (works fine in previous version 1.x). I have turned on full logging, and the only difference I can see is that in the new version the Content-Length header is not set... Any idea why? I think this migt be the issue, but can't really find a way to "trigger" or set it...

Hi, I'm working with WebSockets at the moment and can't manage to detect closing frames. This is what the documentation says:

When handling a session, you can check a frame type, for example:

• Frame.Text is a text frame. For this frame type, you can read its content using Frame.Text.readText().

• Frame.Binary is a binary frame. For this type, you can read its content using Frame.Binary.readBytes().

• Frame.Close is a closing frame. You can call Frame.Close.readReason() to get a close reason for the current session.

Use the close function to send a close frame with the specified reason.

I need to remove my Connection instance from a set, when the channel is closed. But in this code the cleanup is never called, when the other side uses the close function:

try {
    for (frame in session.incoming) {
        when (frame) {
            is Frame.Text -> {
                // ...
            }
            is Frame.Close -> {
                // Do cleanup
            }
            else -> {}
        }
    }
} catch (e: ClosedReceiveChannelException) {
    println("onClose ${session.closeReason.await()}")
    // Do cleanup
} catch (e: Throwable) {
    println("onError ${session.closeReason.await()}")
    // Do cleanup
}

So how do I react to closing frames correctly?

Hey! 🙂 I'm wondering how I can iterate over incoming websocket messages while using serialization as shown here?

for (frame in incoming) {
            val data = receiveDeserialized<Data>()
            println(data)
        }

This is pretty much what I'd like to do, but the

for (frame in incoming)

part already consumes data from the queue, so I'm kinda confused how to properly iterate over it

This has me confused. I just started a new ktor project and this was amongst the things that I got as part of the ktor project generator page. Apparently intellij doesn’t recognize

startsWith

as a method that can be called on a string 😮 Any clues?

How can I disable hostname verification with Ktor CIO Client ? With Okhttp I could just do this but haven't found the solution for CIO:

HttpClient(OkHttp) {
            engine {
                config {
                    hostnameVerifier {
                            _, _ -> true
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Hi folks. I want to upload a huge multipart file to my server via Ktor Client. Any ideas or tips? The file is considered to be larger than 2GB.

What is the default request timeout for a Ktor client instance which does not have the timeout feature installed?

Hello guys i use koin for my depedency injection.i have heard that there is an issue with ktor 2.0, has the issue been resolved or i should stick to ktor 1.6.8?

I use Ktor 1.6.8 and to work in parallel (multiple NSThreads) on iOS I call my httpClient.get() inside a

CoroutineWorker.withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {}

block. I use the

IosClientEngine

for my HttpClient. In normal conditions it works fine, but in a CoroutineWorker context I get

kotlin.native.concurrent.FreezingException: freezing of InvokeOnCompletion@e9e588[job@149d2c8] has failed, first blocker is BlockingCoroutine{Completing}@e5b248

Because it's not production ready I can't really use the new memory model yet. So I need to solve it with the old one and CoroutineWorker. How do I need to wrap my KTor HttpClient calls?

The migration docs for 2.x say that I can receive an arbitrary object with (something like)

val customer: Customer = client.get("<http://localhost:8080/customer/3>").body()

and I'm assuming this works for post too, but whatever I do I can't find a way to do this in commonMain of a KMM app. Does this need to be platform specific? I've got the content negotiation plugin loaded into the HttpClient, and imported into the class making the call, it just complains that "body" is an unresolved reference. Can someone point me in the right direction, please.

I’m curious how to potentially have “nested” authentication configurations. The use-case is a user authenticates with OAuth2 and then store the session information. Then within a session authenticated route, allow the user to authenticate with OAuth2 using a different provider to perform actions on their behalf. The only way I’ve found is to manually perform the OAuth2 flow with a session authenticated route rather than being able to use the oauth2 authentication plugin.

Which kotlin version is ktor-client:2.0.2 compatible with? Getting weird linxX64 curl engine linking errors with K1.7.0

Are you having memory leakage problems with ktor?

is there any convenient way to download a huge file with Ktor using OutputStream? The file is considered to be larger than 2GB. I previously asked almost the same question

Hello friends I'm writing my first ktor plugin for GraphQL Kotlin which is very nice, apart from the initial setup which is very not nice. It's my first ktor plugin, any feedback ? https://github.com/jmfayard/graphql-kotlin/blob/ktor-plugin/examples/server/ktor-s[…]/com/expediagroup/graphql/examples/server/ktor/GraphQLModule.kt

Is there a good pattern anyone uses to test mocking both successful and error responses from a server when testing a client? So you’d normally have something like:

val mockHttpClient = HttpClient(MockEngine) {
    engine {
        addHandler { request -> {
            when (request.url.encodedPath) {
                "url1" -> respond(someSuccessResponse)
            }
        }
    }
}
val client = MyClient(mockHttpClient)
...

but I want to be able to test how

MyClient

handles different kinds of responses when hitting

url1

, but the mock engine config is fixed…is there a good way to be able to change it to simulate different responses?

Hello team, While upgrading another of our projects from Ktor V1 to Ktor V2, we noticed that a couple of our integration tests were failing... After doing an investigation and comparing the behaviour between Ktor V1 and Ktor V2 we noticed that some of the mockks are no longer working as expected. I wonder if this is an issue with Ktor or if there was any behaviour change that I couldn’t find. Apparently the

testApplication

starts a separate Classloader where the mocked classes/objects are not visible. Is this expected?

Hello team, am new to mongodb and am using it for my ktor project. How can i return the inserted document back to client after insertion. I need the doc to store it in room

Hi, after trying to upgrade from

my tests using

externalServices

started failing. Any experience of that kind?

Hi, I reported this https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTOR-4297/aSocket-for-Native-Linux-is-leaking-if-host-and-port-is-unreachable and this https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTOR-4298/embeddedServer-CIO-for-Native-Linux-with-[…]-serialization-kotlinx-json-seems-to-be-leaking-for-every regarding memory leaks some time ago, I can't publish my code into production, because the host also declines hosting the docker images because of leak detection as well, is something being done about this? Can I supply more information to help out?

If I have a length-prefixed protocol, how can I use bytepacketbuilder to first build a temp packet, then count the length and then really write it ?

Trying to run KTor server on Android setup to use a Unix Domain Socket so that I can expose it as a Tor HiddenService. It's working now using HTTPS, but it looks like unix domain sockets are Java16+ only? Any chance there could be some wedge in there to use either

android.net.LocalSocket

-OR-

java.net.UnixDomainSocketAddress

?

One question for the team: our vulnerabilities scanner reports that we have quite some libs in

2.0.1

that are very outdated, and that impose security risks. Will this be addressed?

After updating our Ktor webservice from Ktor 1.6 to 2.0, we've been having troubles to get the CORS plugin to handle preflight requests correctly. Basically, OPTIONS requests will always be answered with a 405 Method Not Allowed no matter what you do, unless you explicitly specify the options route in your routing plugin. This seems to not be a problem with the CORS plugin itself, but rather a side effect of this issue being solved, which prevents the CORS plugin from ever being called for OPTIONS requests to a route where no options handler is installed, but another method handler exists. Is there a recommended workaround for that? The only solution I've found so far that fixes this for all routes without specifying an explicit options handler for each one individually is adding this generic catch-all handler to the top level routing:

options("{...}") { }

But that feels like a hack, and I'm not even sure it doesn't produce unwanted side effects, even though CORS seems to work correctly with it. Isn't there a way to let CORS handle preflight requests fully automatically without having to add this?
