SBT - Dependency missing - scala

I did few changes in build.sbt files of working project. After changes I did sbt clean update it working fine. But While running sbt clean compile it showing compilation errors regarding squants package.
My build.sbt contains
"com.squants" % "squants_2.10" % "0.2.3" % Compile,
And I took the dependency graph tree "dependencyBrowseGraph". It not showing anything regarding squants package. What can I try to resolve this?

It happen because of missing squants library in one of the modules in same project.

Scala "not found: object com" - should i really add entry in build.sbt if there are no other dependencies?

I have created basic Scala Play application with https://www.playframework.com/getting-started play-scala-seed. This project compiles and runs with sbt run. But I have another Scala project that compiles and runs and which I have submitted to my local Ivy repository with command sbt publishLocal. This other project was saved at C:\Users\tomr\.ivy2\local\com.agiintelligence\scala-isabelle_2.13\master-SNAPSHOT as a result of this command.
Then I imported (exactly so - imported, no just opened) my Play project in IntelliJ and I used Project - Open Module Settings - Project Settings - Libraries to add com.agiintelligence jar from my ivy2 location. After such operations IntelliJ editor recognizes com.agiintelligence classes. That is fine.
But when I am trying to run my Play application with sbt run, I experience the error message not found: object com that is exactly when compiling import com.agiintelligence line in my Scala controller file of Play application.
Of course - such error has been reported and resolved with, e.g. object play not found in scala application
But that solution suggests to append build.sbt file. My build.sbt file is pretty bare:
name := """agiintelligence"""
organization := "com.agiintelligence"
version := "1.0-SNAPSHOT"
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(PlayScala)
scalaVersion := "2.13.5"
libraryDependencies += guice
libraryDependencies += "org.scalatestplus.play" %% "scalatestplus-play" % "5.0.0" % Test
// Adds additional packages into Twirl
//TwirlKeys.templateImports += "com.skaraintelligence.controllers._"
// Adds additional packages into conf/routes
// play.sbt.routes.RoutesKeys.routesImport += "com.skaraintelligence.binders._"
My Play application contains (as can bee seen from the IntelliJ project pane) some tens of 'external libraries' (it shows my com.agiintelligence jar as well), but why should I add my own ivy2 library in build.sbt file if no other libraries are listed here? What is different with my library? It is on my computer, in the repository as expected already?
Of course, I can try to add it build.sbt and issue sbt update and see what happens, but I can not understand this logic? Can someone explain it and provide some clue to intelligible solution of my error message?

Those are probably just transitive dependencies of your Play dependency, that is why sbt downloaded all of them and put them in your classpath so you could use them without you needing to tell it about them; because the pom of Play already did.
It is not that the build tool or the IDE magically added all those dependencies for you because they read your mind and magically understood you wanted them. And that for some reason the magic stopped working for your own library.
Why it is not sufficient to list it Project-Setting--External Libraries in IntelliJ only?
That is sufficient for the IDE to work, but not for the build tool. The build tool is independent of the IDE; it doesn't know about it. sbt just knows about the dependencies you configured in your definition file.
Even more, you should always configure your dependencies on your build tool and then import that in the IDE; rather than the opposite. IDEs are graphical tools, so their state can not be committed, can not be shared, can not keep track of changes, can not be used in CI / CD environments; additionally, different teammates may want to use different IDEs.
I resolved the error message by adding line in build.sbt file
libraryDependencies += "de.unruh" %% "scala-isabelle" % "master-SNAPSHOT"
and by subsequent run of sbt update.
Error is solved, but the main question still stand - why I had to do this? Why there are tens of dependencies that are not listed in build.sbt and why should I list my dependency in build.sbt and why it is not sufficient to list it Project-Setting--External Libraries in IntelliJ only?
OK, comment by #Luis_Miguel_Mejía_Suárez gave the explanation, that comment is the actual and expected answer to my question.

Running sbt with Wartremover

I'd like to check the code of my whole project with wartremover and sbt.
I've added addSbtPlugin("org.brianmckenna" % "sbt-wartremover" % "0.13" to plugins.sbt, but don't know what to do next.
I don't get any output from wartremover with sbt run and sbt compile.
Like said in the documentation, you will need to configure the linter:
wartremoverErrors ++= Warts.unsafe
With sbt >= 0.13.5 and the auto plugin feature, that's all. I get compilation errors with the examples as soon as I add the line above.

Using sbt 0.13.1, tests won't compile using the generated externalIvyFile

For our Scala development we currently use ivy + ant, but we are also trying to use sbt for our development workflow. This would be for the continuous incremental compilation when not using an IDE.
sbt uses ivy, so in theory this should work. But when using an ivy external file the tests won't compile.
To reproduce this you can even use the generated ivy.xml file from any sbt project.
Here are the steps to reproduce the error on a sbt project with tests,
from the sbt console run deliverLocal (deliver-local in previous versions of sbt)
copy the generated ivy file into your project home and rename it to 'ivy.xml'. From my understanding using this file should be equivalent to declaring the dependencies in build.sbt.
edit the build.sbt, add externalIvyFile() on one line and then comment all dependencies declarations
in the console, run reload, then test
compile will run just fine, but test will fail at compile time. None of the dependencies will be honoured, not even the production code of the current project.
What am I missing?
In my case it worked with the following build.sbt:
externalIvyFile()
classpathConfiguration in Compile := Compile
classpathConfiguration in Test := Test
classpathConfiguration in Runtime := Runtime
You just need the extra three lines in the end. Here is a link for more info: http://www.scala-sbt.org/release/docs/Detailed-Topics/Library-Management.html#ivy-file-dependency-configuration
Look for the Full Ivy Example. I hope it helps!
EDIT: Just to be complete - here is what pointed me to the above link: https://github.com/sbt/sbt/issues/849.

How to build a jar file out of github project in sbt to be used in a scala program

I am trying to use scala to access Amazon's DynamoDB and found this great package on github https://github.com/piotrga/async-dynamo
so I downloaded the code as a zip file , unzipped it and then did "sbt clean test" and getting the following error
error sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: asyncdynamo#async-dynamo;1.6.0: not found
Questions : is this the correct way to generate a jar file that I can include in my Scala program or is there a better way?
thanks in advance.
EDIT:
just for the benefit of others, the SCALA SBT documentation provides lots of information regarding the build process.
Instead of generating a jar file, you can just run 'sbt publish-local' and then include the lines for the managed dependency in the other project.
Sbt/ivy will see you have the artifact that way you don't need to add the jar to the other project which is much cleaner.
Then for example if you need to update the other project you don't need to replace the jar again - just publish-local again and clean and run your other project!
You are not the only one to have problems with this it seems, see github issues page:
https://github.com/piotrga/async-dynamo/issues
The command 'sbt clean test' will run the tests sbt detects. If you want a .jar file you could use 'sbt clean package', which produces a .jar in the target/ folder.
I cloned the repo and was able to run sbt package after changing release.sbt a bit. I had to change the 'publishTo'-variable as it seemed to depend on the repository creators local environment variable, so I just commented it away.
I did not get the dependency problem, so I suppose it is correctly declared. The tests it tries to run do fail though, but sbt package compiles produces the .jar just fine.
EDIT: As Matthias Schlaipfer pointed out in the comments, the more elegant way(and much easier) would just be to add this as an depency in your build.sbt. From the readme, this is what you need to add:
resolvers += "piotrga" at
"https://github.com/piotrga/piotrga.github.com/tree/master/maven-repo"
libraryDependencies += "asyncdynamo" % "async-dynamo" % "1.6"

Maven SBT dependency artifacts?

I manage my project using Maven and SBT at same time. The reasons for this are:
Intellij IDEA cannot import SBT
project.(idea-sbt plugin doesn't
work very well)
I don't know how can get sources and
javadocs from SBT.(I'd like to see any answers about this)
The problem is I don't know how to let Maven download SBT dependency. I search through maven repository and couldn't find anything about sbt. I wanna use Maven or SBT to manage all the jars in my project.
If you put a pom.xml to the root of your project, it will be recognized by SBT. When you specify no managed dependencies in the project definition, SBT relies on Maven dependencies.
As it said in SBT doumentation,
sbt performs this dependency handling
when the update action is executed. By
default, sbt does not update your
dependencies before every compilation,
but only does so when you execute
update. sbt supports three ways of
specifying these dependencies:
* Declarations in your project definition
* Maven POM files
* Ivy configuration and settings files
Maven knows nothing about SBT as of now (at least, I've not heard about any plugins so far), so, the best you can do to manage your project both in Maven and SBT, is to generate POMs by SBT. See SBT to Maven Converter for more details.
idea-sbt plugin works great for me with IDEA 10 - all it's really intended to do is open an SBT shell within the IDE and it does that well enough.
A plugin you should look into if you're interested in getting the Maven out of your build is sbt-idea plugin ( https://github.com/mpeltonen/sbt-idea ). This is a great plugin that generates IDEA files from an SBT project. It couldn't be easier to use. At an SBT prompt, run the following commands:
*sbtIdeaRepo at http://mpeltonen.github.com/maven/
*idea is com.github.mpeltonen sbt-idea-processor 0.3.0
update
idea
Note the asterisks - they should be included.
At this point, you can open your project in IDEA. It won't complain about the SBT dependencies. Any time you add new dependencies to your project file, simply run the 'idea' command again to tell IDEA about it. I do that in the SBT window provided by idea-sbt.
As far as getting sources and docs with dependencies, you can do something like this (from the SBT docs):
val sc = "org.scalacheck" % "scalacheck" % "1.5" withSources()
There is a corresponding withJavadoc() method. Hope that helps.
