Is Fleet supposed to handle Kotlin scripts? Like simple *.main.kts files? It looks like it kinda knows it's Kotlin code without any auto completion

[Stylianos Gakis]

If it's not a Gradle project you won't get auto-complete as far as I understood from this https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/FL-22261/Cant-get-fleet-smart-mode-to-autoformat-my-code-nor-provide-any-autocompletion-options

Honestly Amper should have a 1-line configuration which lets you do exactly this in some way, if it doesn't already. Maybe worth a feature request in YouTrack?

Right, I guess Fleet just doesn't know that a single *.main.kts file is an entire project by itself. I'll try the build.gradle.kts workaround, thanks

I've got working sample with *main.kts file without dependencies, but imports don't work.

@file:Repository("<https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/>")
@file:DependsOn("io.ktor:ktor-client-core-jvm:2.1.2")
@file:DependsOn("io.ktor:ktor-client-cio-jvm:2.1.2")

import io.ktor.client.*
import io.ktor.client.engine.*


val client = HttpClient(CIO)

It works for me if you follow the workaround of the linked issue.

Adding an empty build.gradle.kts file and letting Fleet add the gradle stuff by itself?

[ribesg]

Yes. I added all that to .gitignore just like the comment said.

[Stylianos Gakis]

So people who would clone that project would need to specifically open it with Fleet so that it does this work for them too right?
Still don't love this whole experience tbh. Would be much happier with not having to do that.

[ribesg]

It's a workaround, of course it's not a fix. It allows to work on scripts with Fleet if needed.
