Is there a way to get the output JS file of a kotlin/js project to run with node?

[Ethan Davidson]

Yes, if you're building with gradle it should be somewhere in the <projectRoot>/build folder. Not sure about the node target but the browser target puts everything in project/build/distribution

[Ethan Davidson]

I think the node package might get compiled to build/js/packages/<project>

Can’t seem to be able to generate that file, I’ve tried both with kotlin 1.4.32 and 1.5.0

Take a look at the project setup docs and see if you're missing something. Can you link to your project or share your build file?

[Martin Feldsztejn]

Yeah, I’ve read it multiple times but I can’t seem to figure out what I’m doing wrong. I’ll update the repo in a bit and post the link

It builds in the $rootProject/build/js/packages/<project>/kotlin , if doesn't help you can use https://github.com/mpetuska/npm-publish plugin, that outputs to $subproject/build/publications/npm/js outputs both typescript's d.ts file (if you're on IR) as well as compiled source 🙂

Eventually I could make it export it to that folder, but its not a single file, if I want to export this I need to get the whole js folder and move it. Unless there is a better way to deploy this into a server

[Animesh Sahu]

The js exported is contained in one single file btw 👀

Not if you have multiple modules that are built locally 😐
