SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a cohesive approach to building and managing infrastructure-related services in Kotlin Multiplatform, removing boilerplate and ensuring consistent lifecycle, configuration, and observability across platforms.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Settings-based configuration: instantiate services from serializable configuration objects, enabling consistent deployments and easy testing.
  • Type-safe data access: generate and consume DataClassPath-based queries for safe, expressive database interactions.
  • Cross-platform service orchestration: unify database, cache, and file-system configurations under a single contract and lifecycle.
  • Health checks and lifecycle management: monitor health, manage connect/disconnect, and support serverless patterns.

Quick Start

Create a ServerSettings instance and initialize a database and cache, then connect them in your application startup.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure infrastructure services in Kotlin Multiplatform projects?▼

Infrastructure services in Kotlin Multiplatform are configured using serialized settings objects. You instantiate services like databases and caches from a ServerSettings instance, ensuring consistent deployments and easy testing across platforms.

How do I manage cross-platform service lifecycles for databases and caches?▼

Cross-platform service lifecycles are managed through a unified Service interface that handles connect and disconnect operations. This provides consistent orchestration across databases, caches, and file systems in Kotlin Multiplatform.

What is the best way to perform type-safe database queries in Kotlin Multiplatform?▼

Type-safe database queries are performed using DataClassPath-based query generation. This mechanism enables safe and expressive data access interactions within your Kotlin Multiplatform service layer.

Can I use health checks and serverless patterns with Kotlin service orchestration?▼

Health checks and serverless patterns are supported during Kotlin service orchestration. The framework monitors service health and manages the connect and disconnect lifecycle to fit serverless execution contexts.

Do I need pluggable implementations for URL-based configuration in Kotlin services?▼

Pluggable implementations are required for URL-based configuration in Kotlin services. This approach satisfies the settings-based configuration model by allowing flexible infrastructure bindings across different platforms.

Why does configuring multiple infrastructure services create boilerplate in Kotlin Multiplatform?▼

Configuring multiple infrastructure services creates boilerplate due to inconsistent lifecycles and configuration models. This Skill removes that boilerplate by unifying service orchestration under a single contract and settings-based configuration.
