Was hoping to see a Ktor HTTP Client library for Linux, aka ktor-client-linux 🙏 ( https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/tree/mpp-client/ktor-client ) but that is missing 🙁.

[gildor]

But ktor-client-cio is a base for future MPP version of ktor-client

[gildor]

For now there is only experimental http-client-common
https://github.com/e5l/http-client-common

[napperley]

That project covers iOS but not Linux (amd64/armv7).

[napperley]

Here is the issue on the Kotlin Native Linux (amd64/armv7) port for the Ktor HTTP client lib: https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/issues/479

[gildor]

I think make sense to open an issue on e5l/http-client-common

[gildor]

Hah, already commented by @e5l
Leonid, what is current plan about ktor http client and http-client-common?
http-client-common eventually will be merged to ktor?
Or will be a separate library, like kotlinx.http-client

[e5l]

http-client-common is the temporary solution, consider to use it if you need client now.
