Save Serializables in Shared Preferences with Kotlin and GSON [Android]

AppExtensions.kt

@Throws(JsonIOException::class)
fun Serializable.toJson(): String {
    return Gson().toJson(this)
}

@Throws(JsonSyntaxException::class)
fun <T> String.to(type: Class<T>): T where T : Serializable {
    return Gson().fromJson(this, type)
}

@Throws(JsonIOException::class)
fun SharedPreferences.Editor.putSerializable(key: String, o: Serializable?) = apply {
    putString(key, o?.toJson())
}

@Throws(JsonSyntaxException::class)
fun <T> SharedPreferences.getSerializable(key: String, type: Class<T>): T? where T : Serializable {
    return getString(key, null)?.to(type)
}

MyRepository.kt

class MyRepository(application: Application) {

    private val sharedPreferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(application)

    fun getMySerializable(): MySerializable {
        return sharedPreferences.getSerializable("MySerializable", MySerializable::class.java)!!
    }

    fun putMySerializable(o: MySerializable) {
        sharedPreferences.edit().putSerializable("MySerializable", o).apply()
    }

}

MySerializable.kt

data class MySerializable(val id: Int, val name: String) : Serializable

Glad to hear that. (Y)
