If I add a

js

target to my KMP build, I get the following error:

Build was configured to prefer settings repositories over project repositories

because I have:

repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)

in my

settings.gradle.kts

. I remember this being reported somewhere (Gradle issues, youtrack, etc...), but I can't find it now. Anyone know where it is?

AFAIK Kotlin/JS part adds

ivy

repository for npm dependencies

Got the full message:

Build was configured to prefer settings repositories over project repositories but repository 'Node Distributions at <https://nodejs.org/dist>' was added by unknown code

yes

Oh look I commented on it 😅

You could workaround Kotlin/JS part via this: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/whatsnew16.html#option-to-use-pre-installed-node-js-and-yarn

Is there a plan to resolve it at the plugin level at some point? I can always comment that line out for now.

not in the nearby plans, probably will fix it via https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-51631/Provide-JS-toolchain
