javax.script.ScriptException: Unable to initialize repl compiler

[jayvdb]

I dont have a kotlin/kotlinc intentionally, and would like to use jgo to fetch that on demand. See also scijava/jgo#89

When I try the instructions given at scijava/scijava-common#451 (comment) , I get an error:

$ jgo --repository scijava.public=https://maven.scijava.org/content/groups/public  org.scijava:scijava-common:2.90.3-SNAPSHOT:@ScriptCLI+org.scijava:scripting-kotlin path/to/script.kt
..

That appears to be coming from here : https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/a4ce2ced6d22086da756242ea114183dc702feab/compiler/cli/cli-common/src/org/jetbrains/kotlin/cli/common/repl/KotlinJsr223JvmScriptEngineBase.kt#L104

This happens even if I explicitly add more of the kotlin jars to the jgo cli, like so:

$ jgo --repository scijava.public=https://maven.scijava.org/content/groups/public --additional-endpoints org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-compiler  org.scijava:scijava-common:2.90.3-SNAPSHOT:@ScriptCLI+org.scijava:scripting-kotlin path/to/script.kt

I am wondering if scripting-kotlin might be able to somehow assist with this, possibly by doing the compile first, using https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.kotlin/kotlin-compiler-embeddable ?

[jayvdb]

I am able to get it working with

jgo --log-level=DEBUG --repository scijava.public=https://maven.scijava.org/content/groups/public --additional-endpoints org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-scripting-jvm-host org.scijava:scijava-common:@ScriptREPL+org.scijava:scripting-kotlin 

Should https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.kotlin/kotlin-scripting-jvm-host be added as a dependency?
