External declarations for Kotlin/JS

This repository contains sources of external declarations for Kotlin/JS. The repository is no longer supported and signatures are no longer updated.

How to use?

Bintray

All libraries are available in the maven repository https://jcenter.bintray.com/ with group id kotlin.js.externals and artifact id kotlin-js-<library-name>.

To use declarations from a library foo, you need to add this repository to your repository list for your build tool, and then add a dependency to kotlin-js-foo.

Gradle:

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    compile "kotlin.js.externals:kotlin-js-foo:$foo_version"
}

Maven:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>kotlin-js-externals</id>
        <name>Kotlin/JS externals</name>
        <url>https://jcenter.bintray.com</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>kotlin.js.externals</groupId>
        <artifactId>kotlin-js-foo</artifactId>
        <version>$foo_version</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

NPM

All libraries are available on npmjs.com under @kotlin-externals scope with the original name. To install declarations for the library foo you must use @kotlin-externals/foo:

npm install --save-dev @kotlin-externals/foo

How to choose version number?

For a JavaScript library of version X.Y.Z, use an external declarations library with latest X.Y version.

Sidenote:

This version scheme is required in order to:

• Obtain simple mapping to/from original library version.
• Have the ability to update external declarations (a version of external declarations library must have some part independent of a version of the original library).
• Not use pre-release versions by default (see https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/semver#prerelease-tags).
• Follow the three number Semver/NPM restriction.

How to contribute?

• Report any issues you find in existing declarations.
• Or fix them and send a Pull Request.
• Request declarations that are missing.
• Or create them yourself and send a Pull Request.

How to write declarations?

To write declarations from scratch or to improve existing declarations you have to read about external modifier and JS interop annotations.

The simplest way to get external declarations is converting TypeScript declarations (d.ts) to Kotlin using Dukat.
