I'm trying to create a relatively simple sbt plugin to wrap grpc-swagger artifact.
Therefore, I've created a project with the following structure:
projectDir/
build.sbt
lib/grpc-swagger.jar <- the artifact I've downloaded
src/...
where build.sbt looks like the following:
ThisBuild / version := "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"
ThisBuild / organization := "org.testPlugin"
ThisBuild / organizationName := "testPlugin"
lazy val root = (project in file("."))
.enable(SbtPlugin)
.settings(name := "grpc-swagger-test-plugin")
According to sbt docs, that's all I have to do in order to include an unmanaged dependecy, that is:
create a lib folder;
store the artifact in there;
However, when I do execute sbt compile publishLocal, the plugin published lacks of that external artifact.
So far I've tried to:
set exportJars := true flag
add Compile / unmanagedJars += file(lib/grpc-swagger.jar") (with also variations of the path)
manual fiddling to libraryDependecies using from file("lib/grpc-swagger.jar") specifier
but none so far seemed to work.
So how am I supposed to add an external artifact to a sbt plugin?
The proper solution to this problem is to publish the grpc-swagger library. If for whatever reason this can't be done from that library's build system, you can do it with sbt. Just add a simple subproject whose only job it is to publish that jar. It should work like so:
...
lazy val `grpc-swagger` = (project in file("."))
.settings(
name := "grpc-swagger",
Compile / packageBin := baseDirectory.value / "lib" / "grpc-swagger.jar",
// maybe other settings, such as grpc-swagger's libraryDependencies
)
lazy val root = (project in file("."))
.enable(SbtPlugin)
.settings(name := "grpc-swagger-test-plugin")
.dependsOn(`grpc-swagger`)
...
The pom file generated for the root project should now specify a dependency on grpc-swagger, and running the publish task in the grpc-swagger project will publish that jar along with a pom file.
That should be enough to make things work, but honestly, it's still a hack. The proper solution is to fix grpc-swagger's build system so you can publish an artifact from there and then just use it via libraryDependencies.

I have a multi-project build.sbt file, with projects like so:
lazy val utils = (project in file("utils"))
.settings(
Seq(
publishArtifact := false
)).[...]
lazy val api = (project in file("api"))
.dependsOn(utils)
.settings(commonSettings: _*)
.enablePlugins(JavaAppPackaging, DockerPlugin)
.settings(publish := {})
.settings(
Seq(
packageName in Docker := "my-api",
dockerBaseImage := "java:8",
mainClass in Compile := Some("com.path.to.Main"),
publishArtifact := false,
unmanagedJars in Compile += file("jars/somejars.jar")
))
API is built on top of Finch framework. I create a docker image for the API using sbt api/docker:publishLocal and then run it locally. However, it seems like the utils subproject classes are not packaged with the final container, and as a result I am getting multiple
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
types of exceptions. For a similar project that doesn't have a subproject dependency, everything runs smoothly and I have no problems.
Am I missing something in the plugin configuration? I thought .dependsOn() should be taking care of providing dependent classes in the project docker image.
Answering my own question, but turns out this is a default behaviour of sbt-native-packager, or rather sbt, when a dependent project has publishArtifact := false setting.
A workaround that worked for me was changing the above to publish/skip := true.
More on this issue can be found here: https://github.com/sbt/sbt-native-packager/issues/1221
Following the hints of the post explaining the basics of migrating to scalajs and this page about cross-compilations, I decided to add cross compilation to my standalone dependency-free scala library by doing the following changes:
I added a file project/plugins.sbt with the content
addSbtPlugin("org.scala-js" % "sbt-scalajs" % "0.6.16")
I added scalaVersion in ThisBuild := "2.11.8" in build.sbt because else just scalaVersion was using 2.10
I also added in the build.sbt the following content to ensure that I can keep the same directory structure, since I don't have any particular files for the JVM or for Javascript:
lazy val root = project.in(file(".")).
aggregate(fooJS, fooJVM).
settings(
publish := {},
publishLocal := {}
)
lazy val foo = crossProject.crossType(CrossType.Pure).in(file(".")).
settings(version := "0.1").
jvmSettings(
// Add JVM-specific settings here
).
jsSettings(
// Add JS-specific settings here
)
lazy val fooJVM = foo.jvm
lazy val fooJS = foo.js
But now, after I published the project locally using sbt publish-local the projects depending on this library do not work anymore, i.e. they don't see the classes that this library was offering and raise errors.
I looked into .ivy2/local/.../foo/0.1/jars and the JAR went from 1MB to 1KB, so the errors make sense.
However, how can I make sure the JVM jar file is compiled correctly?
Further informations
The jar time does not change anymore, it looks like there had been some miscompilation. I deleted the .ivy2 cache, but now sbt publish-local always finishes with success but does not regenerate the files.
Ok I found the solution myself.
I needed to remove the publishLocal := {} from the build, and now all the projects depending on my library work fine.
I'm developing a library that includes an sbt plugin. Naturally, I'm using sbt to build this (multi-project) library. My (simplified) project looks as follows:
myProject/ # Top level of library
-> models # One project in the multi-project sbt build.
-> src/main/scala/... # Defines common models for both sbt-plugin and framework
-> sbt-plugin # The sbt plugin build
-> src/main/scala/...
-> framework # The framework. Ideally, the sbt plugin is run as part of
-> src/main/scala/... # compiling this directory.
-> project/ # Multi-project build configuration
Is there a way to have the sbt-plugin defined in myProject/sbt-plugin be hooked into the build for myProject/framework all in a unified build?
Note: similar (but simpler) question: How to develop sbt plugin in multi-project build with projects that use it?

I have a working example on Github eed3si9n/plugin-bootstrap. It's not super pretty, but it kind of works. We can take advantage of the fact that sbt is recursive.
The project directory is another build inside your build, which knows how to build your build. To distinguish the builds, we sometimes use the term proper build to refer to your build, and meta-build to refer to the build in project. The projects inside the metabuild can do anything any other project can do. Your build definition is an sbt project.
By extension, we can think of the sbt plugins to be library- or inter-project dependencies to the root project of your metabuild.
meta build definition (project/plugins.sbt)
In this example, think of the metabuild as a parallel universe or shadow world that has parallel multi-build structure as the proper build (root, model, sbt-plugin).
To reuse the source code from model and sbt-plugin subprojects in the proper build, we can re-create the multi-project build in the metabuild. This way we don't need to get into the circular dependency.
addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-doge" % "0.1.5")
lazy val metaroot = (project in file(".")).
dependsOn(metaSbtSomething)
lazy val metaModel = (project in file("model")).
settings(
sbtPlugin := true,
scalaVersion := "2.10.6",
unmanagedSourceDirectories in Compile :=
mirrorScalaSource((baseDirectory in ThisBuild).value.getParentFile / "model")
)
lazy val metaSbtSomething = (project in file("sbt-plugin")).
dependsOn(metaModel).
settings(
sbtPlugin := true,
scalaVersion := "2.10.6",
unmanagedSourceDirectories in Compile :=
mirrorScalaSource((baseDirectory in ThisBuild).value.getParentFile / "sbt-plugin")
)
def mirrorScalaSource(baseDirectory: File): Seq[File] = {
val scalaSourceDir = baseDirectory / "src" / "main" / "scala"
if (scalaSourceDir.exists) scalaSourceDir :: Nil
else sys.error(s"Missing source directory: $scalaSourceDir")
}
When sbt loads up, it will build metaModel and metaSbtSomething first, and use metaSbtSomething as a plugin to your proper build.
If you have any other plugins you need you can just add it to project/plugins.sbt normally as I've added sbt-doge.
proper build (build.sbt)
The proper build looks like a normal multi-project build.
As you can see framework subproject uses SomethingPlugin. Important thing is that they share the source code, but the target directory is completely separated, so there are no interference once the proper build is loaded, and you are changing code around.
import Dependencies._
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).
aggregate(model, framework, sbtSomething).
settings(inThisBuild(List(
scalaVersion := scala210,
organization := "com.example"
)),
name := "Something Root"
)
// Defines common models for both sbt-plugin and framework
lazy val model = (project in file("model")).
settings(
name := "Something Model",
crossScalaVersions := Seq(scala211, scala210)
)
// The framework. Ideally, the sbt plugin is run as part of building this.
lazy val framework = (project in file("framework")).
enablePlugins(SomethingPlugin).
dependsOn(model).
settings(
name := "Something Framework",
crossScalaVersions := Seq(scala211, scala210),
// using sbt-something
somethingX := "a"
)
lazy val sbtSomething = (project in file("sbt-plugin")).
dependsOn(model).
settings(
sbtPlugin := true,
name := "sbt-something",
crossScalaVersions := Seq(scala210)
)
demo
In the SomethingPlugin example, I'm defining something task that uses foo.Model.x.
package foo
import sbt._
object SomethingPlugin extends AutoPlugin {
def requries = sbt.plugins.JvmPlugin
object autoImport {
lazy val something = taskKey[Unit]("")
lazy val somethingX = settingKey[String]("")
}
import autoImport._
override def projectSettings = Seq(
something := { println(s"something! ${Model.x}") }
)
}
Here's how we can invoke something task from the build:
Something Root> framework/something
something! 1
[success] Total time: 0 s, completed May 29, 2016 3:01:07 PM
1 comes from foo.Model.x, so this demonstrates that we are using the sbt-something plugin in framework subproject, and that the plugin is using metaModel.
I need to build a single jar, including dependencies, for one of my sub-projects so that it can be used as a javaagent.
I have a multi-module sbt project and this particular module is the lowest level one (it's also pure Java).
Can I (e.g. with sbt-onejar, sbt-proguard or sbt assembly) override how the lowest level module is packaged?
It looks like these tools are really designed to be a post-publish step, but I really need a (replacement or additional) published artefact to include the dependencies (but only for this one module).
UPDATE: Publishing for sbt-assembly are instructions for a single project, and doesn't easily translate into multi-project.

People have been publishing fat JAR using sbt-assembly & sbt-release without issues. Here's a blog article from 2011: Publishing fat jar created by sbt-assembly. It boils down to adding addArtifact(Artifact(projectName, "assembly"), sbtassembly.AssemblyKeys.assembly) to your build.sbt (note that the blog is a little out of date AssemblyKeys is now a member of sbtassembly directly).
For sbt 0.13 and above, I prefer to use build.sbt for multi-projects too, so I'd write it like:
import AssemblyKeys._
lazy val commonSettings = Seq(
version := "0.1-SNAPSHOT",
organization := "com.example",
scalaVersion := "2.10.1"
)
val app = (project in file("app")).
settings(commonSettings: _*).
settings(assemblySettings: _*).
settings(
artifact in (Compile, assembly) ~= { art =>
art.copy(`classifier` = Some("assembly"))
}
).
settings(addArtifact(artifact in (Compile, assembly), assembly).settings: _*)
See Defining custom artifacts:
addArtifact returns a sequence of settings (wrapped in a SettingsDefinition). In a full build configuration, usage looks like:
...
lazy val proj = Project(...)
.settings( addArtifact(...).settings : _* )
...
Hello I have 5 jar files and tried to publish them to a local repository with sbt.
But when I place them in unmanagedBase directory like lib/ they won't get copied with publishLocal. Is there an easy way to include them in the publishing process?
Currently maven has a similar solution here:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-3rd-party-jars-local.html
One option is to define a subproject for each jar that you want published. Have your main project depend on each. Give each subproject an appropriate name, version, and organization. For each subproject, put its jar somewhere not on the classpath and make the output of packageBin be that jar.
For example (sbt 0.13 build.sbt),
lazy val main = project.dependsOn(subA)
lazy val subA = project.settings(
name := "third-party",
organization := "org.example",
version := "1.4",
packageBin in Compile := baseDirectory.value / "bin" / "third-party.jar",
// if there aren't doc/src jars use the following to
// avoid publishing empty jars locally
// otherwise, define packageDoc/packageSrc like packageBin
publishArtifact in packageDoc := false,
publishArtifact in packageSrc := false,
// tell sbt to put the jar on main's classpath
// and not the (empty) class directory
exportJars := true,
// set this to not add _<scalaBinaryVersion> to the name
crossPaths := true
)
This approach allows you to change the jar in subA/bin/third-party.jar and have it be used immediately and a subsequent publishLocal will publish it locally.
If you prefer separately publishing it locally, so that it isn't part of the project, define subA as a standalone project instead.
