Another question about integrating Three.js. I found a very useful JS object in the library, but the problem is that it is not present in the final min.js module. For JS people recommend to do it like that: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46362627/use-convexgeometry-in-npm-version-of-three. Is it possible to do it in kotlin-js?

You can import declarations from JavaScript modules using @JsModule annotation [https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/js-modules.html#jsmodule-annotation]

I believe in your case it would look like:

@JsModule("three/examples/js/geometries")
external object ConvexGeometry

Thanks. I will try it.

@altavir Which declarations you use for Kotlin/JS?

[altavir]

@turansky What do you mean by declarations?

[turansky]

I mean Kotlin declarations

[altavir]

Still not sure, what do you mean. A recommended by @Svyatoslav Kuzmich [JB] I try to use @JsModule for module declarations. In some cases I use require, but I still have a little understanding about how they interfere.

Do you use https://github.com/Pozo/threejs-kotlin?

[Svyatoslav Kuzmich [JB]]

@JsModule does require under the hood. It just helps you to use static types with declarations coming from JS modules.

@turansky I've worked and updated https://github.com/markaren/three.kt, but I am open to suggestions
