Can I get the serializer for type

Entity<T>

? Assuming T is @Serializable, how do I write

Json.encodeToString(T.serializer(),entity)

? Ideally without reflection because presumably kotlinx.serialization does it without reflection?

I believe the intended method is by using SerializersModule, but

T

can’t be type-erased

import kotlinx.serialization.KSerializer
import kotlinx.serialization.modules.SerializersModule
import kotlinx.serialization.serializer

val serializersModule = SerializersModule {  }

fun <T> failure() {
  // Cannot use 'T' as reified type parameter. Use a class instead.
  val serializer: KSerializer<T> = serializersModule.serializer<T>()
}

inline fun <reified T> reified() {
  val serializer: KSerializer<T> = serializersModule.serializer<T>()
}

These are big methods, I don't think inline is an option. I shall do more reading.

there is a non-inline

SerializersModule.serializer(KType)

function

I wonder how KTor handles it... Lots to learn! I'll be back...
