Installation

This guide covers adding Kodio to your Kotlin Multiplatform project.

Requirements

Kotlin: 2.2.20 or later
Gradle: 8.0 or later
Android: minSdk 24 (Android 7.0)
iOS: 13.0 or later

Add the dependency

Using Gradle Version Catalog

Add the version and library to your gradle/libs.versions.toml:
[versions] kodio = "0.1.1" [libraries] kodio-core = { module = "space.kodio:core", version.ref = "kodio" } kodio-compose = { module = "space.kodio:compose", version.ref = "kodio" } kodio-compose-material3 = { module = "space.kodio:compose-material3", version.ref = "kodio" } kodio-transcription = { module = "space.kodio:transcription", version.ref = "kodio" }
Add the dependency to your build.gradle.kts:
kotlin { sourceSets { commonMain.dependencies { implementation(libs.kodio.core) } } }

Add directly to your build.gradle.kts:

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain.dependencies {
            implementation("space.kodio:core:0.1.1")
        }
    }
}

Optional modules

Kodio provides additional modules for Compose integration:

commonMain.dependencies {
    // Core (required)
    implementation(libs.kodio.core)
    
    // Compose state holders + AudioWaveform
    implementation(libs.kodio.compose)
    
    // Material 3 UI components
    implementation(libs.kodio.compose.material3)
    
    // Audio transcription (OpenAI Whisper)
    implementation(libs.kodio.transcription)
}

commonMain.dependencies {
    // Core (required)
    implementation("space.kodio:core:0.1.1")
    
    // Compose state holders + AudioWaveform
    implementation("space.kodio:compose:0.1.1")
    
    // Material 3 UI components
    implementation("space.kodio:compose-material3:0.1.1")
    
    // Audio transcription (OpenAI Whisper)
    implementation("space.kodio:transcription:0.1.1")
}

Module overview

Module	Contents	When to use
`core`	Recording, playback, file I/O	Always required
`compose`	`rememberRecorderState`, `rememberPlayerState`, `AudioWaveform`	Compose Multiplatform apps
`compose-material3`	`RecordAudioButton`, `PlayAudioButton`, `ErrorDialog`	Quick Material 3 UIs
`transcription`	`OpenAIWhisperEngine`, `AudioFlow.transcribe()`	Speech-to-text transcription

Verify installation

After syncing Gradle, verify the installation by importing Kodio:

import space.kodio.Kodio
import space.kodio.AudioQuality

suspend fun test() {
    // If this compiles, you're good!
    val recording = Kodio.record(duration = 1.seconds)
}
