Hi there is there alternative to buildKonfig? for multimodular KMM projects?,

currently we are facing issue in multimodular KMM projects

[mbonnin]

I’d encourage you to open an issue in the GitHub repo with your problem. It could potentially help others

[mbonnin]

Otherwise, I’ve used https://github.com/gmazzo/gradle-buildconfig-plugin successfully in the past

[Suresh Maidaragi]

Have used in multi module apps?

[mbonnin]

Can’t remember but most likely yes, most my apps are multi module

Look at https://github.com/fethij/Rijksmuseum/blob/main/core/network/build.gradle.kts#L36

[Farhazul Mullick]

Is it multiplatform type of buildConfig you used on repo fethji/Rijksmuseum

[Farhazul Mullick]

If so how can we change build varients for iOS?

it's multiplatform. You can probably have your fields defined in a commom module and have other module that need it depend on that common module. Make sure to add it as api(project:common) instead of implementation(project:common) and add internalVisibility = false so other modules that depend on it can see the generated class.

buildConfig {
    packageName = "com.example.project"
    useKotlinOutput { internalVisibility = false }
    buildConfigField(
        "String",
        "API_KEY",
        "\"${secretKeyProperties["api.key"]}\""
    )
}
