Hello. I’m updating to kotlin and ktor 1.4.0 but ktor-client-core-native is not available yet. Is there an alternative repository?

[aleksey.tomin]

You have to use io.ktor:ktor-client-curl:1.4.0 instead of.

Nice, thanks for your help 👍

I had have the follow in my source sets:

commonMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-serialization:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-logging:$ktor_version"
    }
}

androidMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-serialization-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-logging-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:$slf4j_version"
    }
}

iosMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-ios:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core-native:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json-native:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-serialization-native:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-logging-native:$ktor_version"
    }
}

Now it’s working removing the native ones for iOS, like this:

commonMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-serialization:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-logging:$ktor_version"
    }
}

androidMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-core-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-json-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-serialization-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:$ktor_version"
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-logging-jvm:$ktor_version"
        implementation "org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:$slf4j_version"
    }
}

iosMain {
    dependencies {
        implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-ios:$ktor_version"
    }
}

But I was not able to find the reason in the documentation

[aleksey.tomin]

For android you have to use OkHttp
io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:1.4.0

[rudolf.hladik]

actually ktor-client-core dependency in common should be enough. read the blogpost about changes in multiplatform https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2020/08/kotlin-1-4-released-with-a-focus-on-quality-and-performance/

[rudolf.hladik]

specify dependencies only once https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/whatsnew14.html#specifying-dependencies-only-once

[aleksey.tomin]

io.ktor:ktor-client-curl and io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp must not be defined in common target 😉

[rudolf.hladik]

those are engines, OP talks about client-core. ktor-client-core has to be defined in common and then you don’t have to define core-native or core-jvm for specific targets.

[aleksey.tomin]

I’ve tried this. On macOS you have to add io.ktor:ktor-client-curl. Without this, build will not work.
