With ktor-client 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 in a multiplatform project, the package io.ktor is unresolved, both in the base gradle build and in IntelliJ.

Hello, I have a weird problem with

HttpClient

class in IntelliJ Idea .. it is marked in red like if it was an error, but all compiles ok and intellisense works too. any ideas? 😕 I am using gradle

Should I be using kotlinx.serialization for server side serialization / deserialization? I'm not seeing a kotlinx.serialization

ContentNegotiation

feature for kotlinx.serialization. Has anyone benchmarked it against jackson?

can i use the test host directly without using

withTestApplication

?

The ktor documentation mentions not using

watchPaths

for production for performance reasons. Is there a flag to indicate production use, or do I need to provide an if block, and provide an empty list for

watchPaths

in production?

Hey there, I’m a bit new to the world of running JVM apps on the server. I’m setting up a docker-compose.yml file and was looking around for a standardized directory to mount my volume in the linux container. For example PHP: uses

/var/www/html

Node: uses

/var/app

is there a standard or recommended practice for ktor apps?

I’ve never understood why applications don’t use the

/srv

directory defined by the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard) since 2004 which most Linux distros follow

/srv

contains site-specific data which is served by this system.

Hi! I'm using ktor on Android to server a simple webpage. It works... except in release mode (with proguard enabled) only part of the file is served, and then I see an exception in the logs. After googling a bit, I've tried to add some proguard rules, but it didn't change anything. Also the stacktrace is very cryptic (see thread below).

📣 Kotlin (and ktor) team went on New Year holidays, which are somewhat long here. We will get back to work Jan, 9. I hope that people can help each other here as much as possible 🙂

Also, from auth examples

authentication {
    basic/digest("someName") { ... }
}
...
authenticate("someName")

why on earth not use static typing and symbol resolving? For instance:

val someAuth = basicAuth { ... }
...
authenticate(someAuth) { ... }

anybody know what origins are enabled by default when one does

install(CORS)

?

hey guys, I'm gonna continue my last thread some how about how structure a backend (REST api) application with ktor or let's say with kotlin. I tried to read kotlin conf backend and I see a normal php application is much more organized and structured than what I can see in KotlinConf app. the question is how do you feel about it. is there anybody in here who is going to develop a complete application with ktor or kotlin? to me it seems ktor needs a boilerplate or something to be more structured with a comprehensive web application

How would I go about streaming an octet-stream to a file with ktor-client-okhttp?

Anybody knows how you can still accept content-type text/plain after installing content negotiation with jackson? Right now I have

install(ContentNegotiation) {
            jackson {

            }
}

but then I get unsupported media type when posting with text/plain. Would like to support both of these formats as default …my google wizardry is starting to drain 😞

I’m running in to some unexpected behavior with ktor-client where I make a request that receives a couple of 302 redirections, some of which set cookies. However the cookies are not being set which leads to the final request failing because it needs the cookies. When setting breakpoints it only appears as though the HttpCookies client-feature is only updating cookies when the final response is received rather than also on the redirections. Is this intended behavior? If so is there an easy way to tell the cookies feature to update on redirects? I’m using the okhttp engine in case it’s relevant.

I tried to upload an image to the server with ktor-client. But it lacks

Content-Length

. May I know how can I put it in please?

When can we expect a production usable version of the Coroutine IO client for Postgres? I see only the shell at https://github.com/ktorio/ktor-clients. Is this project not being developed any more?

a questino about https://ktor.io/servers/deploy/packing/fatjar.html - Is it really necessary to apply the plugin ‘application’ when you are building a fat jar?

What would be a recommended way of handling that (client side)

We would be happy to fix it, if you have any idea

Could we have a ktor eap release with kotlin 1.3.20-eap ? Would be so helpful 🙏

I'm trying to use a local copy of https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/blob/master/ktor-server/ktor-server-core/jvm/src/io/ktor/http/content/OutputStreamContent.kt in ktor CIO client code. However, my client often freezes when writing to the

OutputStream

, with the stack:

My call to

OutputStream

for testing is simply

write(bytes)

where bytes is a

ByteArray

.

A bit stuck with OAuth. Even with

error

in URL getting infinitely redirected to OAuth provider and back. What am I doing wrong?

Hi! I'am trying to use io.ktor:ktor-client-logging on multiplatform project, and it fails to build. On ./gradlew clean android:app:installLocalDebug it shows KotlinConfApi.kt: (6, 40): Unresolved reference: DEFAULT KotlinConfApi.kt: (7, 40): Unresolved reference: LogLevel KotlinConfApi.kt: (8, 40): Unresolved reference: Logger KotlinConfApi.kt: (9, 40): Unresolved reference: Logging But in IJ imports are ok I got KotlinConf sample and added dependency as shown on https://ktor.io/clients/http-client/features/logging.html

When is

ktor-client-curl

going to be published?

Hi all is there a way to use some sort of alias for

@Location

query parameters?

Gradle deps:

//ktor-client
	implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core:$ktor_version"
	implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-apache:$ktor_version"
	implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json:$ktor_version"
    testCompile "io.ktor:ktor-server-test-host:$ktor_version"

@e5l The docs don't indicate anything different... https://ktor.io/clients/http-client/features/json-feature.html, where are the new dependencies?

What is the recommended ktor way of returning different set of data depending on who is logged in? E.g. when requesting a user object if I am the owner of it to return everything and when I am not the owner to just return some information. In the past I would have used JSON Views (I use Jackson) but I don't think there is currently a way to use JSON Views with ktor
