Not possible to add non-Android module to Android Koin

See original GitHub issue

Hi there! Thanks for your hard work on Koin! Great library. Anyway, I faced an issue, where you force to provide list of AndroidModule’s to Application.startKoin(). Thus it is impossible to provide modules that are built, for example, in data or domain layers, which are usually written without platform dependencies. Briefly looking through your code, I haven’t found any serious reason to force AndroidModule for android artifact. What do you think? This will be a big win, if your android artifact’s startKoin function will accept all descendants of Module.

Hello,

Koin 0.7.0 brings a better DSL and Koin modules won’t have any dependency with Android classes. Up to you to inject Application/Context dependencies or not.

The startKoin() from 0.7.0 will accept Modules as you pointed, allowing to build fully independent modules for Android.

Wait the next days, for the next release (hope to release it before xmas 😃 )
