SerializationException: can't locate argument-less serializer

I'm creating a Kotlin Multiplatform library; actually I got 3 modules ( common, jvm and js ),

In the classpath I got: classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:${versions.kotlin}"

And in my modules I got:

  • common: "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-runtime-common:${versions.kotlinSerialization}"
  • jdk: "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-runtime:${versions.kotlinSerialization}"
  • js: "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-runtime-js:${versions.kotlinSerialization}"

and apply plugin: 'kotlinx-serialization' ofc.

But when I run this simple test:

@Serializable
data class ASimpleClass( val a: Int )

.

@Test  
fun testingMultiplatformCode_canSerialize() {
    JSON.stringify( ASimpleClass( 1 ) )
}

I got this error:

kotlinx.serialization.SerializationException: Can't locate argument-less serializer for class studio.forface.ktmdb.ASimpleClass. For generic classes, such as lists, please provide serializer explicitly.

I have same result annotating the property "a" ( @SerialName ), which shouldn't require an annotation anyway.

Am I missing something? :/ thanks

The error indicates that serialization plugin was not actually applied.

In your config classpath line:

classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:${versions.kotlin}"

has not applied plugin because it can't infer version from property versions.kotlin. You need to define this value in buildscript block or try inline kotlin version like that

classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:1.3.10"

or use Plugins API. Replace buildscript block in root build.gradle with:

plugins {
    id "kotlinx-serialization" version "1.3.10" apply false
    // ... another plugins
}

And add following to root settings.gradle:

pluginManagement {
    resolutionStrategy {
        eachPlugin {
            if (requested.id.id == "kotlinx-serialization") {
                useModule("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-serialization:${requested.version}")
            }
        }
    }
}

Also, if you are configuring multiplatform project, you likely need to add 'multiplatform' plugin as described in Kotlin docs
