How to Set Up and Use Galway Bus

The Galway Bus project is a Kotlin Multiplatform application that provides real-time Galway city bus schedule and location information across Android, iOS, and macOS using a single shared codebase. It serves as a production-quality reference implementation of modern Kotlin Multiplatform architecture, combining Jetpack Compose on Android, SwiftUI on iOS, Ktor for networking, SQLDelight for the database layer, and Koin for dependency injection. Developers studying Kotlin Multiplatform patterns, shared business logic, or native UI integration across Apple and Android platforms will find this a well-structured open-source example.

Prerequisites

JDK 17 or later installed
Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA with the Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile plugin
Xcode 15+ (for iOS and macOS targets)
A Google Maps API key (GOOGLE_API_KEY) for maps functionality
Gradle 8.x (included via Gradle wrapper in the repo)

Clone the repository

Clone the GalwayBus project to your local machine.

git clone https://github.com/joreilly/GalwayBus.git
cd GalwayBus

Configure your Google Maps API key

Create a local.properties file in the project root and add your Google Maps API key. This key is required for the map view that shows bus locations.

# local.properties
GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_google_maps_api_key_here

Open in Android Studio

Open the project in Android Studio. Let Gradle sync complete. The IDE will detect the Kotlin Multiplatform configuration automatically.

Run the Android app

Select an Android emulator or physical device and run the androidApp module from Android Studio.

./gradlew :androidApp:installDebug

Run the iOS app

Open the iosApp/iosApp.xcodeproj (or .xcworkspace) in Xcode and run on a simulator or device. The shared Kotlin code is compiled as a native framework.

open iosApp/iosApp.xcodeproj

Galway Bus Examples

Project structure overview

Key modules in the GalwayBus Kotlin Multiplatform project.

{
  "shared": "Common Kotlin code: data models, repositories, Ktor networking, SQLDelight DB",
  "androidApp": "Android app with Jetpack Compose UI",
  "iosApp": "iOS/macOS app with SwiftUI UI",
  "local.properties": "GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_key_here"
}

Key dependencies in the shared module

The shared module uses these KMP-compatible libraries for networking, database, and DI.

- Ktor Client: HTTP networking to fetch bus schedule data
- SQLDelight: Multiplatform SQLite database for caching bus data
- Koin: Dependency injection shared across Android and iOS
- KMP-NativeCoroutines: Bridges Kotlin Coroutines/Flow to Swift async/await
- Kotlinx Serialization: JSON parsing for bus API responses

Troubleshooting Galway Bus

Map view shows blank or crashes on launch

Ensure GOOGLE_API_KEY is set correctly in local.properties. The key must have the Maps SDK for Android and Maps SDK for iOS enabled in the Google Cloud Console.

Gradle sync fails with 'KMP plugin not found'

Install the Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile plugin in Android Studio via Settings > Plugins > Marketplace. Also ensure your JDK is set to version 17 or later in Project Structure > SDK Location.

iOS build fails with framework linking errors

Run './gradlew :shared:assembleDebugXCFramework' first to build the shared framework before opening Xcode. Ensure your Xcode version is compatible with the Kotlin version specified in the project's gradle/libs.versions.toml.
