This is the repository for http://kotlinlang.org[Kotlin] language support for http://vertx.io/docs[Vert.x 3].

The following modules are available in this project:

• vertx-lang-kotlin contains extension functions for the majority of Vert.x libraries.
• vertx-lang-kotlin-coroutines contains coroutines support for https://vertx.io/docs/vertx-lang-kotlin-coroutines/kotlin/[Vert.x].

=== Extending Vert.x for Kotlin

Kotlin extensions are developed in this link:vertx-lang-kotlin/src/main/java/io/vertx/kotlin[directory].

For instance vertx-core extensions are in the io.vertx.kotlin.core package, etc...

Extensions needs to be tested and link:vertx-lang-kotlin/src/main/asciidoc/index.adoc[documented].

=== Bumping Kotlin version

There are a couple of rules to follow before increasing the project versions:

• If changing one between kotlin and kotlinx.coroutines version, make sure that all transitive dependencies, like kotlin-stdlib, still match between the two versions.
• If changing the kotlin version, open a PR also on https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-codetrans[vertx-codetrans]

Kotlin evolves fast, so just change the project versions, test it, and shot a PR.
