Depends-Kotlin: A Cross-Language Kotlin Dependency Extractor
Since Google introduced Kotlin as an official programming language for developing Android apps in 2017, Kotlin has gained widespread adoption in Android development. However, compared to Java, there is limited support for Kotlin code dependency analysis, which is the foundation to software analysis. To bridge this gap, we develop \textit{Depends-Kotlin} to extract entities and their dependencies in Kotlin source code. Not only does \textit{Depends-Kotlin} support extracting entities’ dependencies in Kotlin code, but it can also extract dependency relations between Kotlin and Java. The extraction of such cross-language dependencies can help developers understand the migration process from Java to Kotlin. Using three open-source Kotlin-Java mixing projects as our subjects, \textit{Depends-Kotlin} demonstrates high accuracy and performance in resolving Kotlin-Kotlin and Kotlin-Java dependencies relations. The source code of \textit{Depends-Kotlin} and the dataset used have been made available at https://github.com/XYZboom/depends-kotlin. We also provide a screencast presenting \textit{Depends-Kotlin} at https://youtu.be/ZPq8SRhgXzM.
