Kotlin serialization plugin consists of three parts: a compiler plugin, an IntelliJ plugin and a runtime library. This is the folder with common source for all plugins, IDEA plugin is built from here. Gradle and Maven plugins can be found in libraries
folder.
Compiler plugins are uploaded on bintray: https://bintray.com/kotlin/kotlinx/kotlinx.serialization.plugin
Before all, follow the instructions from root README.md to download dependencies and build Kotlin compiler. (./gradlew dist
)
Plugin works only with IntelliJIDEA 2017.2 and higher.
Make sure you have latest dev version of Kotlin plugin installed.
Run ./gradlew :kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin:dist
. In IDEA, open Settings - Plugins - Install plugin from disk...
and choose $kotlin_root/dist/artifacts/Serialization/lib/kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin.jar
Run ./gradlew runIde
You'll get a fresh copy of IDEA with Kotlin and Kotlin-serialization plugins built from sources.
Run ./gradlew :kotlinx-gradle-serialization-plugin:install
Make all prerequisites from libraries' README.md for Maven projects. Go to $kotlin_root/libraries/tools/kotlin-maven-serialization
