Faas: Template request: Kotlin with Gradle

[i-walker]

My workflow so far is to have a docker file which builds the gradle project and exposes the binaries to the watchdog.

What are the nessary steps, that faas-cli supports kotlin with gradle?

You can use Faas-cli to generate a new dockerfile template and build your function using Docker, Kotlin and Gradle.

Alternatively you can create a template yourself and submit it to the template store.

You can also extend this third party template https://github.com/napperley/openfaas-kotlin-templates/ from @napperly

Yes, creating a template would be ideal for this.

Is this Kotlin on JVM or "native"?

Kotlin JVM. Ok, I'll look into it. I. get back to you, if I have something working

[alexellis]

@i-walker I don't have anything for you right now, but you can use the Java template since it's geared-up for the JVM and then adapt it for Kotlin:

I would love to contribute for this. Is there some work already done which I can help improve/maintain and release?

[alexellis]

Please take a look at how the Java template works in the openfaas/templates repo, fork it and translate to Kotlin. That's how I'd approach it.

[Gopinathp]

Sure.

[alexellis]

Thanks, it would be great to see what you can come up with.
