Is Kotlin Native ready for CLI tools development ?

• kscript

  7 2,040 1.7 Kotlin

  Scripting enhancements for Kotlin

  

I am surprised not to see any mention of kscript https://github.com/holgerbrandl/kscript

• kotlinx.coroutines

  59 12,710 8.9 Kotlin

  Library support for Kotlin coroutines

  

Coroutines are not built for arm (and other libraries). Maybe I am overestimating the importance of this, but I would absolutely want to run my CLI tools on machines like the raspberry pi!

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• kotlinx-cli

  8 893 4.9 Kotlin

  Pure Kotlin implementation of a generic CLI parser.

  

There is https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx-cli but you'll have to weigh this against quality and completeness of third party efforts as you've already discovered (in any case you'll probably need multiple libraries).

• cobra

  129 35,891 7.8 Go

  A Commander for modern Go CLI interactions

My go-to for CLI tools nowadays is Golang with cobra

• ionos-dyndns

  1 1 0.0 Kotlin

  dyndns daemon for ionos domains

Hey! I am currently investigating the current state of Kotlin for such tools/applications. I, therefore, created a sample dyndns cli tool for my webhoster (see https://github.com/sellmair/ionos-dyndns) as example/dogfooding project.

• okio

  15 8,659 8.9 Kotlin

  A modern I/O library for Android, Java, and Kotlin Multiplatform.

  

No "official" files API available for native right now. However, this okio implementation looks really, really cool already: https://github.com/square/okio/issues/797#issuecomment-748781380

• kotlin-shell

  2 136 0.0 Kotlin

  Tool for performing shell-like programing in Kotlin

Kotlin-shell looks pretty interesting too: https://github.com/jakubriegel/kotlin-shell

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• maven-mvnd

  82 2,741 7.1 Java

  Apache Maven Daemon

  

Maven is slow, but hopefully mvnd can fix that.
