I’m trying to respond with JSON while following with these dependencies on my project . However I cannot import ContentNegotiation . Am I missing a dependency?

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

How does your build.gradle file looks like? The following setup works for me:

ext.ktor_version = "1.6.7"

dependencies {
    implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib"

    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-core:$ktor_version"
    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-netty:$ktor_version"
    implementation "ch.qos.logback:logback-classic:1.2.3"
    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-serialization:$ktor_version"

    testImplementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-test-host:$ktor_version"
    testImplementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-test"
}

@Aleksei Tirman [JB] implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib" is the only thing i’m missing and it’s not mentioned in the tutorials

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

Btw, the ContentNegotiation is from io.ktor.features package.

[Alexander Suraphel]

How do i install that please?

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

Do you mean to install the ContentNegotiation plugin?

[Alexander Suraphel]

yes it’s not mentioned anywhere in: https://ktor.io/docs/creating-http-apis.html

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

There are links for the template and final projects at the top

I tried to do import io.ktor.features.* but the package is not in my classpath

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

Could you please share an archive with your project?

[Alexander Suraphel]

My ktor version is 2.0.0-beta-1 if that helps

[Alexander Suraphel]

just followed the wizard

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

Then you should consult docs for 2.0.0.

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

The documentation you mentioned is for version 1 of Ktor

[Alexander Suraphel]

Got it

Thanks

[Alexander Suraphel]

One more thing @Aleksei Tirman [JB] I don’t know which install to import. There are a lot of options!

[Alexander Suraphel]

install(ContentNegotiation)

[Alexander Suraphel]

i retyped it and IntelliJ inferred it was from io.ktor.server.application
