Kotlin

Kotlin export lets you generate Kotlin-ready source code from grid data.

What is Kotlin Data Output?​

AnyWayData can export each row as either:

  • an anonymous map
  • a named data class instance

Rows are wrapped in either listOf(...) or arrayOf(...).

How is Kotlin output different from JSON?​

JSON is a language-neutral data format.

Kotlin output uses Kotlin syntax directly, including:

  • val variable assignment
  • map rows with "key" to value
  • optional data class definition and instance rows
  • Kotlin-safe identifier handling (keyword escaping with backticks)
  • normalized PascalCase class names for generated data classes

AnyWayData Support for Kotlin​

AnyWayData currently supports exporting data to Kotlin format.

See Kotlin Options for configuration details.

Unit Test Code Generation​

You can also generate data-driven test scaffolding for Kotlin using frameworks: kotest, junit5-kotlin, spek.

For more information, see Unit Test Code Generation.
