I’ve also created an issue on

kotlin-scripts-examples

to ask for documentation on authentication with private repositories https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-script-examples/issues/5 still no luck

hey there @arocnies 🙂

I saw that on discourse yes

I'm struggling with something even more basic, I tried to make a really simple script loader

ok… thank you rubberduckies…

Is there a way to give a root path to the script engine?

I want to use File() but everything is relative to my file package, not to where I run the main script host

ohhh nevermind it is intelliJ refactoring that again changed values in strings…

I have an issue having scripting run in a fatjar (shadowjar)

my META-INF/services/javax.script.ScriptEngineFactory is in there

but the

ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByExtension("kts")

returns null

(it works with the non shadow version

all the dependencies are in "api" and I exclude org.jetbrains.kotlin:.* from minimize

I switched to a BasicJvmScriptingHost() that work

kscript v3.0 has finally arrived with a new kotlin-scripting based dependency resolver and java11 support. See https://github.com/holgerbrandl/kscript/blob/master/NEWS.md#30

Using KTS in Gradle and being able to reliably use autocomplete and source look up is amazing.

Is there a recommended way to find the script path? I found this way:

System.getProperties()["sun.java.command"].toString().split(" ").let {
    it[it.indexOfLast { item -> item == "-script" } + 1]
}

but it’s not handling well escaped spaces + quite verbose. In Python you would find it with

sys.argv[0]

Hello everyone. I'm playing with KTS (main.kts) module.I have a Spring Boot Kotlin app that calls the kts script. Is it possible to pass a parameter from the application to the script?

Hi! Has anyone faced to such a problem: kts scripts doesn’t highlight in Android Studio multiple script definitions are applicable for this script. KotlinSettingsScript is used

I missed the AMA stuff the other day, but doesn't seem like scripting was talked about from what I see. Would be nice to get them more ironed out as scripting support and hot swapping for them would be epic to have working consistently. Right now lots of people I know have issues setting up basic projects that can use Kotlin scripts (sometimes code completion works and other times nothing resolves without build and/or explicit imports) and there seems like too much ambiguity surrounding the difference in .kts files being scripts themselves or just free floating Kotlin code files and then the necessity to define things like .main.kts and their derivatives with handler script extension registers like above. Ideally should a .kts not just be Kotlin script that can be arbitrarily executed by Kotlin classes as a Script without the need for all the boilerplate?

If people want to run Kotlin scripts on GitHub Actions, I asked AND answered it for ubuntu runners: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68206464/how-to-run-a-kotlin-script-on-github-actions/68206465#68206465

What might cause IntelliJ IDEA (latest EAP, 2021.2) to no longer analyze and resolve symbols in a

.main.kts

script? Edit: Opened an issue here: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTIJ-19059 Edit 2: Found a workaround that involves not using EAP to edit Kotlin scripts, added in the issue comment.

because I shared this library in this channel, some people may be interested by the follow-up

Is there any performance difference between the jsr223 engine and BasicJvmScriptingHost?

can I use kotlin-shell in my kotlin script? Just

dependsOn

or?

Hey all! We’ve launched a survey that would help us to prioritize Kotlin Scripting related work. Please share your experience and tell us about your use cases! https://surveys.jetbrains.com/s3/Kotlin-Scripting-Survey-sl

Is it just me or .main.kts support in latest intellij is broken? Whenever I add any dependency to my script, all autocompletion crashes and permanent NoClassDefFound error banner appears at the top complaining that it cannot access google/inject/Provider

+1 I thought it was just me because I was trying to add

mavenLocal

as a repository but I've seen this yesterday

Might as well be the Kotlin IDEA Plugin, I'm using 1.6-RC
