Mark the class as or provide the serializer explicitly.īut I do use When I hover the mouse over it, I see this: Serializer for class ‘Configuration’ is not found. The “decodeFromConfig” fails with the following error: Val envConf = codeFromConfig(typesafeConf) Val typesafeConf = .parseFile(File(“src/env.conf”)) Then I try to extract configuration like this:

Then I defined my data classes and I use “ annotation on them.

I also added the dependency in “buildscript” block:Ĭlasspath(group = “com.typesafe”, name = “config”, version = “1.4.1”)Ĭlasspath(group = “”, name = “kotlinx-serialization-hocon”, version = “1.3.0”) Kotlin(“rialization”) version kotlinVersion So I added the plugin to the “plugins” block: For my project I'm using rialization and the issue at hand will be solved for that converter, but the concept is the same for the others.I want to use kotlin serialization in the build script itself (). The Ktor docs are great as a start and they even show you how to use three built-in converters ( Gson, Jackson and rialization). Eventually you will run into a situation where you need to either customize your serialization logic or provide a serialization implementation for a non-primitive value. The process of turning objects into JSON data is a common task and most of the time it's a non-issue turning an Int into a JSON number is simple, turning a String into a JSON string is simple and so on. If you're into Kotlin and you haven't tried Ktor yet, I highly suggest you try it out. This blog post will focus on an issue I ran into recently concerning to JSON serialization when using Ktor (adding contextual serialization). Ktor is a Kotlin framework for building web applications and HTTP services.
