Kotlin Phoenix

See API reference: https://ajacquierbret.github.io/kotlin-phoenix

This project is aimed to allow developers to work with Phoenix Channels in Kotlin Multiplatform projects, and is composed of several modules:

• A modern Kotlin Multiplatform Phoenix Channels client, built with coroutines.
• Adapters designed for specific GraphQL clients (e.g. Apollo Client) allowing them to handle subscriptions via Phoenix Channels

As of now, this project is still experimental and should NOT be used in production. Please feel free to contribute and to share feedbacks and issues.

Modules

• Kotlin Phoenix Client
• Kotlin Phoenix Adapters

Installation

Add the mavenCentral repository

// build.gradle.kts

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}

Add the kotlinphoenix dependency in commonMain source set.

// shared/build.gradle.kts

sourceSets {
  val commonMain by getting {
    dependencies {
	implementation("io.github.ajacquierbret:kotlinphoenix-$moduleName:1.0.3")
    }
  }
}

Usage

See each module's documentation for example usages.

Roadmap

• Fork and re-design the JavaPhoenixClient library in order to build a Multiplatform library (at least iOS & Android), using OkHttp for Android and NSUrlSession for iOS
• Switch all the JavaPhoenixClient library callbacks to a coroutine based approach
• Publish this brand new library as Kotlin Phoenix Client on Github and Maven
• Create a PhoenixNetworkTransport adapter for Apollo Kotlin using Kotlin Phoenix Client, which will be available in the same repo, but inside another module.
• Clean both module's code and add detailed comment blocks
• Host Dokka generated API reference on Github Pages
• Write and host proper documentation
• Refactor Presence with coroutines and suspending functions
• Mock a simple Phoenix server & test the Kotlin Phoenix library
• Encourage the community to contribute to the project

Contributing

I strongly believe that this library will be useful to a lot of Kotlin developers wishing to create engaging Phoenix Channels experiences on many platforms !
