Is there any way to know, when building shared KMP code as part of iOS build, which build configuration is being used?

[John O'Reilly]

I looked in Platform for example and don't see anything like that (other than say isDebugBinary)

Can pass in properties into the gradle build command which can then be accessed in the same way as anything in the gradle.properties file would be on the KMP side.

We've got this when building the shared framework with KMP_ENVIRONMENT being defined per configuration as a user defined build setting in Xcode.

./gradlew :shared:embedAndSignAppleFrameworkForXcode -Pbuildkonfig.flavor=$KMP_ENVIRONMENT

For use with this library - https://github.com/yshrsmz/BuildKonfig

Thanks @Patrick Cavanagh, that makes sense

[John O'Reilly]

Looks like I can use $CONFIGURATION directly. Though maybe approach of having something like KMP_ENVIRONMENT might be more flexible....are you defining that then in different .xcconfig files?

[Patrick Cavanagh]

Yep, exactly that - separate .xcconfig files per server environment with a variety of things defined.

Most of them we're just populating into the info.plist then accessing at runtime but that one is passed in to help generate the BuildKonfig which has all of the shared config.
