I am trying to generate external Declaration for a NPM package but it is giving errors But when I tried the same with dukat@next version it worked Tell me either how can I include my generated declarations to my kotlinJs project or how can I update to dukat@next in IDE to automatically generate declarations and use it
I am expecting for dukat to generate my Declarations and i can work with my npm module
CodePudding user response:
The Kotlin/JS Gradle plugin configures the version of Dukat via an extension on the root Gradle project (even if the root project does not have the Kotlin/JS plugin applied).
The latest version of Dukat can be found on npmjs.com. Right now, the latest version is 0.5.8-rc.4-dev.20221020
// build.gradle.kts
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.targets.js.nodejs.NodeJsRootExtension
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.targets.js.nodejs.NodeJsRootPlugin
rootProject.plugins.withType<NodeJsRootPlugin> {
configure<NodeJsRootExtension> {
versions.apply {
dukat.version = "0.5.8-rc.4-dev.20221020"
}
}
}
There are actually a lot of versions that can be configured. The full list (for Kotlin v1.8.0) can be viewed in NpmVersions.kt
I wouldn't rely on Dukat too much though. It's still highly experimental, and is updated rarely. Further development has been postponed a number of times. It rarely generates correct code, but it can be used as a good starting point (read more).
