Local

All DSLs support the local run of the application.

It means that the application may be run via a local task in Gradle, and will use Netty for Ktor DSL and Jetty for Kotless DSL. Application will start on port 8080 by default.

Moreover, Kotless local start may spin up AWS emulation, if you enable it. Just instantiate your AWS Service client using override for Kotless local starts:

val client = AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard().withKotlessLocal(AwsResource.DynamoDB).build()

During local run with AWS Emulation, LocalStack will be started and all clients will be pointed to its endpoint automatically.

You may set the configuration of local run in a configuration of plugin extensions:

extensions {
    local {
        //change default local port
        port = 9090
        //enable AWS emulation (disabled by default)
        useAWSEmulation = true
    }   
}
