Do you have a JVM module that depends on a JS one? That's not supposed to be possible, right?

[coder82]

it is possible... i do it...

[coder82]

the js part produces a bunch of js files which are in the jar... the they are loaded from the jar itself, the whole webapp is a jar with .class and .js in their respective packages

[napperley]

I concur with coder82, and would add that generated JS files from the Kotlin JS transpiler can also be included in the JAR along with Java class files.

[karelpeeters]

Ah that's a different kind of dependency then, I though your Java code would actually try to use the JS code.

[coder82]

ok that ofc no, what I do is: I use these js files inside the jar and put them in the resources dir within the jar so that the webserver serves my static files from there

[coder82]

like this I can pass js files through all jar dependencies automatically reusing gradle dependency handly, and at the end I bundle all of them with webpack

[coder82]

I do this so that I can destructure my projects in modules, so that I have one module with core common functionality and other modules which use those functionalities

[coder82]

so on and so forth, quite handy

[karelpeeters]

Right, that does make sense.
