Hi all, does anyone have any experience with moving the kmm module outside of the app directory. In my case, my app is in main -> fixture -> android/ios. and the module is in mmain -> kmm -> kmmtestmodule The pod istall and import works fine, but xcode build fails and I cant call any functions from the kotlin pod.
Xcode Build Error:

build.gradle.kts' line: 3

* What went wrong:
Plugin [id: 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.multiplatform'] was not found in any of the following sources:

- Gradle Core Plugins (plugin is not in 'org.gradle' namespace)
- Plugin Repositories (plugin dependency must include a version number for this source)

You may have a line that define the multiplatform plugin version in the app?

[Tarika Chawla]

this is the line `

kotlin("multiplatform")

I tried changing to id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.multiplatform") but thats not working either

[Tarika Chawla]

tried adding the version too but then it gives me another error that I cant specify the version twice

[Grégory Lureau]

I'm thinking about a dependency for the multiplatform plugin in your buildscript

[Tarika Chawla]

can you explain that a bit more?

[Grégory Lureau]

Well in my case I use gradle kts, and I've a buildSrc/build.gradle.kts dependency to :

implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlinkotlin gradle plugin1.5.31")

That's the kotlin version source right there.

If this is somewhere in the app but not in the lib maybe it's conflicting in some ways (pure speculation, sorry 🙂)

[Tarika Chawla]

ahh! I dont have that in my dependencies in my module's build.gradle.kts file. Let me try adding that

[Tarika Chawla]

I added this to my module's build.gradle.kts file but thats not helping. After sync> pod install > build still failed

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.2")
        classpath("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.30")
    }
}

If it's open-source, I may have a look in the next hours. (If not, it's a bit tricky to me to help without code.)

[Tarika Chawla]

its not open source unfortunately. But this does seem like a path I can dig further. I will keep you posted.
