05/26/2020, 11:44 PMoh maybe the new thing is only really visible to people who have written their own infix operators.
Just thought I should make a little noise because it looks like it's been awful quiet in here.

05/27/2020, 6:16 PMtrue, I am basically the only one writing :D
robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:16 PMare you interested in using the infix API? Let me know in case you need help

keturn
05/27/2020, 6:21 PMthank you, but no, I don't plan to. I'm fine with keeping my `.`s

robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:22 PMgood good, what is the thing you miss most in api-fluent? Any feature wishes?

05/27/2020, 6:25 PMI'm actually only just now returning to kotlin after quite some time away. So I don't have anything in the way of case studies to report.
I just saw I was still joined to this channel, and remembered liking atrium as one of the better options when I was checking things out a few years back.

05/27/2020, 6:26 PMotherwise let me know, I seldom get a feature wish which is kind of strange 😄

05/27/2020, 6:27 PMthe biggest thing on my wishlist is https://github.com/bnorm/kotlin-power-assert
which I believe you've had a look at

robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:31 PMI have seen this project and I might use similar techniques in the future to simplify feature assertions and give additional hints but I don't intend to have power-asserts as in spock
robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:32 PMwell... the additional hint could be similar actually

05/27/2020, 6:40 PMThe main things which hinders me to go down this path currently are:
• it requires an extra gradle plugin (so all people using maven could probably not benefit)
• as far as I remember even an intellij plugin (though I cannot see anything like that in the project readme)
• I am not sure if it works with the JavaScript target as well
• the IR is not stable yet (last time I checked not even experimental)
• and time ⌚

05/27/2020, 6:43 PMhmm, if IR is an attempt to give a common representation to all the multiplatform targets, there's a chance it could work for js? but yes, certainly lots of unknowns at this stage

robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:44 PMI would hope so, now I remember, KLib (Kotlin Library Format) will become experimental with kotlin 1.4
robstoll
05/27/2020, 6:45 PMand I guess the included IR as well
