Simple examples that help you get started with Appwrite + Kotlin (=❤️)

This is Appwrite server side integration with Kotlin. For Android integration please look at our Android playground and Android SDK

Appwrite playground is a simple way to explore the Appwrite API and Appwrite Kotlin SDK. Use the source code of this page to learn how to use different Appwrite Kotlin SDK features.

This playground doesn't include any Kotlin best practices, but rather intended to show some of the most simple examples and use cases of using the Appwrite API in your Kotlin application.

• A system with Kotlin 1.4+ or Docker installed.
• An Appwrite instance.
• An Appwrite project created in the console.
• An Appwrite API key created in the console.

1. Clone this repository.
2. cd into to repository.
3. Open the src/main/kotlin/io/appwrite/playgroundforkotlin/Main.kt file found in the cloned repository.
4. Copy your Project ID, endpoint and API key from Appwrite console into Main.kt
5. Run the playground: Kotlin:
   • Execute the command sh gradlew run Docker:
   • Execute the command docker compose up
6. You will see the JSON response in the console.

When connecting to Appwrite from within Docker, localhost is the hostname for the container and not your local Appwrite instance. You should replace localhost with your private IP as the Appwrite endpoint's hostname. You can also use a service like ngrok to proxy the Appwrite API.
