Add on-demand Apple compile CI job (label-triggered) - #241
Merged
Conversation
The ubuntu-only ci.yaml cannot build the iOS/macOS targets — Kotlin/Native does not cross-compile them off a Mac — so Apple was exercised only at publish time. Add a macOS job that compiles every Apple target (main + test) on demand: apply the `ci-apple` label to a PR, or trigger it manually. Gated on the label so ordinary pushes don't spend macOS minutes.

Reviewed to tier-1 standard. Clean infra addition: single-file CI workflow, correct label-gated trigger, macos-latest runner, JDK 21 temurin + setup-gradle + konan cache all matching ci.yaml conventions, 5 Apple targets compiled (main+test) with no simulator required. No secrets, no publish automation, no scope creep. All 6 CI checks green including the apple job itself (5m26s on macos-latest). Approving.

What
Adds
.github/workflows/ci-apple.yml— a macOS CI job that compiles every Apple target (iOS + macOS, main + test source sets) across all modules.Why
The existing
ci.yamlruns onubuntu-latestand builds only jvm + linuxX64 + apiCheck + compiler tests. Kotlin/Native can't cross-compile Apple targets off a Mac (kotlin.native.enableKlibsCrossCompilation=false), so iOS/macOS were compiled only at publish time on the macOS runner — a blind spot where an Apple-only breakage (e.g. a missing/misplacedactual) wouldn't surface until release. This closes that gap on demand.Trigger
Gated on a
ci-applelabel (orworkflow_dispatch) so ordinary pushes don't spend macOS minutes:ci-applelabel to a PR that touches Apple sources, orCompiles (does not link/run) so it needs no simulator; it resolves expect/actual and catches source-level breakage.
This PR is itself labeled
ci-appleto smoke-test the workflow against currentmain.
