Is there a way to publish dokka javadoc for native/js library?

[Kamil Doległo]

There isn’t unfortunately. That’s because dokka do not have its own javadoc format, it internally uses the HTMLDoclet from your JDK

[Joffrey]

@Kamil Doległo Is your answer specifically for the javadoc output format? I thought Dokka 0.10.0 supported multiplatform, so it must be able to output some doc in JS and Native, right?

[Kamil Doległo]

Yes, sure. My answer was only about javadoc, all the other output formats should work with every platform

[Big Chungus]

Are there plans to create some dokka format that we could publish with our MPP libraries and get those recognised by gradle/intellij?

[Joffrey]

Cool! I'm just starting to set up publishing for one of my mpp project, and I'm facing issues with the docs (javadoc jars are necessary to publish to maven Central, but I guess any jar with some docs in it should do, doesn't have to be javadoc per se). Since it's a multiproject build with some mpp subprojects and 1 JVM and 1 JS subproject, things are a bit complicated :)

@Big Chungus I haven’t head of such plans, but I’m not the right person to ask. There was an issue two years ago about that though (https://github.com/Kotlin/dokka/issues/215). I’ll try to find out if anything has changed

[Kamil Doległo]

@Joffrey Good luck then! If you have any questions you can ask here or DM me 😉

[Joffrey]

Thanks a lot! The error I can't manage to get rid of is a ZIP file error on the JS subproject: https://travis-ci.org/joffrey-bion/krossbow/jobs/620861213#L1116
Do you have any idea about why it's even trying to unzip a js file?

[Joffrey]

(the link doesn't scroll to the proper line because the output is collapsed, maybe it's a bug in Travis CI, but you can actually see the error L.1116 of the log)

[Joffrey]

I'll actually ask the question in a separate thread
