Before wasting time, can I use Ktor in a watchOS app/target?

Ktor client with iOS engine works for me in a watchOS app

Interesting. May I ask how your gradle is set up? I am using cocoapods integration, which calls the gradle process, passing in the Xcode params. I have something like this:

val buildForWatchARM = project.findProperty("kotlin.native.cocoapods.target") == "watchos_arm"
    if (buildForWatchARM) {
        watchosArm32("watchos32")
        watchosArm64("watchos64")

        val watchosMain = sourceSets.maybeCreate("watchosMain")
        sourceSets["watchos64Main"].dependsOn(watchosMain)
        sourceSets["watchos32Main"].dependsOn(watchosMain)

    } else {
        watchosX64("watchos") // simulator
    }

and then a section like so:

val watchosMain by getting {
            dependencies {
                implementation("io.ktor:ktor-client-ios:$ktorVersion")
            }
        }

but when I try to build the framework within AS, I get errors like so:

Could not resolve io.ktor:ktor-client-core:1.6.0.
...
No matching variant of io.ktor:ktor-client-core:1.6.0 was found.

Maybe the new

watchosX64

target is not supported yet in Ktor

Good point. I am trying simulator first.

I have all Ktor code in an appleMain source set which is shared between ios and watchos

good idea. will look into how to share them. thanks for the help!

Great! Upvoted.

Haha unfortunately that's not as easy as this PR

That does look pretty cool. Have to get into it. I might look into doing a macOS SwiftUI version of our app, then at least I can use the shared code compiled as a pure macOS framework.
