I am starting to doubt whether Jetpack Compose is a step forward or backwards. It is really starting to get on my nerves , i was excited as building the UI is handsdown simple and quick but man the navigation is a mess specially with the bottomsheet. I mean now i have to worry about back handling too.

Hello everybody, Iam developing KMM used by iOS and Android client. I need to use websockets there.Do you have experience with any library which works both for iOS and Android part? Thanks

Trying to parse with Kotlin DateTime the following string:

2024-06-04T15:36:13Z

using the following pattern:

val PATTERN = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssX"

    @OptIn(FormatStringsInDatetimeFormats::class)
    val dateTimeFormat = LocalDateTime.Format {
        byUnicodePattern(PATTERN)
    }

    override fun deserialize(decoder: Decoder): LocalDateTime {
        return LocalDateTime.parse(decoder.decodeString(), dateTimeFormat)
    }

Getting the following error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: A UTC-offset-based directive X was used in a format builder that doesn't support UTC offset components

I just watched the presentation on the new Rich Errors language feature. Since

?

and

!!

will be used as well for error types, how are we going to differentiate between null and error in a function returning a nullable type?

fun foo() String? | SomeError

I was surprised this wasn’t addressed at all in the talk. Are we supposed to either write functions with error union types OR functions returning nullable without error union types? What about generics versions of this? A

null

can be a valid successful response

I register a custom task in root-level build.gradle.kts:

tasks.register<ExampleTask>("example")

abstract class ExampleTask : DefaultTask() {
    @TaskAction
    fun initialize() {
        println("Hello World")
    }
}

But when I run it

./gradlew example

I got:

Could not create task :example
    Could not create task of type ExampleTask
        Class Build_gradle.ExampleTask is a non-static inner class.

What do I miss? Thanks

Can anyone recommend a documentation generator for Kotlin code, such as sphinx for python?

In compose (Android), I have multiple instances of a ViewModel each with a unique key. This is working fine. However, when I try to retrieve all the instances with

Koin.getAll()

always a single new instance is returned (and none of the existing instances). Is this a bug, or is there another way to do this?

I'm not sure why this happened out of seemingly nowhere, but whenever I click the green arrow to run a test, all I see is "Nothing here". I also keep getting this error.

I'm having problem configuring

HttpRequestRetry

correctly. This is the current configuration:

fun HttpClientConfig<*>.configureRetries(
        methods: List<HttpMethod> = listOf(
            HttpMethod.Get,
            HttpMethod.Put,
            HttpMethod.Delete
        )
    ) {
        install(HttpRequestRetry) {
            retryIf(10) { request, response ->
                if (request.method in methods) {
                    response.status.value in listOf(502, 503, 504)
                } else {
                    false
                }.also {
                    if (it) {
                        println("Retry request because of status ${response.status.value}")
                    }
                }
            }
            retryOnExceptionIf(10) { _, cause ->
                if (cause is CancellationException) {
                    return@retryOnExceptionIf false
                }
                val shouldRetry = when (cause) {
                    is HttpRequestTimeoutException,
                    is ConnectTimeoutException,
                    is SocketTimeoutException,
                    is java.net.SocketTimeoutException,
                    is java.net.SocketException,
                    is java.io.EOFException -> true

                    is java.io.IOException -> cause.message == "HTTP/1.1 header parser received no bytes"
                            || cause.message == "chunked transfer encoding, state: READING_LENGTH"

                    else -> false
                }
                if (shouldRetry) {
                    println("Retry request because of exception $cause")
                } else {
                    println("Don't retry request because of exception $cause")
                }

                shouldRetry
            }
            exponentialDelay()
        }
    }

However in our production environment requests fail without being retried, with an

java.io.IOException: chunked transfer encoding, state: READING_LENGTH

error. Neither

Retry request because of exception $cause

nor

Don't retry request because of exception $cause

is printed in the console, so it looks like the exception isn't catched at all by

HttpRequestRetry

. We are using the

Java

client and making a GET requests. Ktor version is

2.3.7
