Why can't sbt find my local package - scala

Searching for examples of library use I downloaded this project.
https://github.com/marcusatbang/Hooks
I then moved the build.bat up one directory. Commented out the xsbt-gpg dependency lines in build.sbt and Build.scala since sbt couldn't find the package. I checked the source to comment out any imports of xsbt-gpg -- there were none. ( Surprise! )
So I managed to compile the project. I then did sbt publish-local. find ~/.ivy2 -iname "\*hooks*jar" generated the following line: .ivy2/local/cc.minotaur/hooks_2.9.0/0.1/jars/hooks_2.9.0.jar.
I then entered the examples folder and tried to build the example project.
The build.scala contains the line: libraryDependencies += "cc.minotaur" %% "hooks" % "0.1", and it generates the error: unresolved dependency: cc.minotaur#hooks_2.9.1;0.1: not found
So how do I fix this error? It seems to me it should be finding the hooks jar/

That could be that your resolver doesn't see local directory. Try something like:
val ivyLocal = Resolver.file("local", file(Path.userHome.absolutePath +
"/.ivy2/local"))(Resolver.ivyStylePatterns)
externalResolvers += ivyLocal

It seems to me that you are using two versions of Scala. The one you are generating the jar is 2.9.0 while the one you are using in the example project is 2.9.1. Probably will solve the problem setting the same version in both projects.

I think your scala version is 2.9.1, u have generated jar for version 2.9.0
change your library dependency as mentioned below.
libraryDependencies += "cc.minotaur" % "hooks_2.9.0" % "0.1"
or add scalaVersion := "2.9.0" in your build.sbt file

sbt: set the base-directory of a remote RootProject

Disclaimer: I am new to sbt and Scala so I might be missing obvious things.
My objective here is to use the Scala compiler as a library from my main project. I was initially doing that by manually placing the scala jars in a libs directory in my project and then including that dir in my classpath. Note that at the time I wasn't using sbt. Now, I want to use sbt and also download the scala sources from github, build the scala jars and then build my project. I start by creating 2 directories: myProject and myProject/project. I then create the following 4 files:
The sbt version file:
// File 1: project/build.properties
sbt.version=0.13.17
The plugins file (not relevant to this question):
// File 2: project/plugins.sbt
addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-buildinfo" % "0.7.0")
The build.sbt file:
// File 3: build.sbt
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).
settings(
inThisBuild(List(
organization := "me",
scalaVersion := "2.11.12",
version := "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
)),
name := "a name"
).dependsOn(ScalaDep)
lazy val ScalaDep = RootProject(uri("https://github.com/scala/scala.git"))
My source file:
// File 4: Test.scala
import scala.tools.nsc.MainClass
object Test extends App {
println("Hello World !")
}
If I run sbt inside myProject then sbt will download the scala sources from github and then try to compile them. The problem is that the base-directory is still myProject. This means that if the scala sbt source files refer to something that is in the scala base-directory they won't find it. For example, the scala/project/VersionUtil.scala file tries to open the scala/versions.properties file that lies in the scala base-directory.
Question: How can I set sbt to download a github repo and then build it using that project's base-directory instead of mine's (by that I mean the base-directory of myProject in the above example) ??
Hope that makes sense.
I would really appreciate any feedback on this.
Thanks in advance !
In the Scala ecosystem you usually depend on binary artifacts (libraries) that are published in Maven or Ivy repositories. Virtually all Scala projects publish binaries, including the compiler. So all you have to do is add the line below to your project settings:
libraryDependencies += "org.scala-lang" % "scala-compiler" % scalaVersion.value
dependsOn is used for dependencies between sub-projects in the same build.
For browsing sources you could use an IDE. IntelliJ IDEA can readily import Sbt projects and download/attach sources for library dependencies. Eclipse has an Sbt plugin that does the same. Ensime also, etc. Or just git clone the repository.

IntelliJ 13 with SBT plugin does not recognize Scalding dependency

I am trying to add Scalding 2.10 as a managed dependency via build.sbt like so:
name := "ss"
version := "1.0"
libraryDependencies += "com.twitter" % "scalding_2.10" % "0.10.0"
IntelliJ downloads the jar and adds it as an external library (see screen below) but fails to resolve the com.twitter namespace.
I have tried both invalidating the IntelliJ cache and generating project files via sbt gen-idea but neither solutions have worked. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
The scalding jar file scalding_2.10 has no code in it to compile against. Its just 300 Bytes in size.
The correct dependency I feel should be
libraryDependencies += "com.twitter" % "scalding-core_2.10" % "0.11.1"
As the comment suggest try rm-ing your ivy2 cache, and try sbt gen-idea. If that doesn't work, other things to check:
makes sure you have indeed got the scala plugin installed.
Most likely you're java SDK is not set or pointing somewhere wrong; right click the project dir, click "Open Module Settings", go to SDK and make sure the path is correctly set to the jdk otherwise syntax highlighting will likely break.
To test your deps have been properly pulled in from tinternet, try sbt compile; if it compiles then you should indeed have downloaded the dependency properly.

how to configure 2.9.1 in org.scala-sbt#sbt_2.9.1;0.12.3

I am trying a very simple sbt example; when I compile it with sbt, and always get the following error:
org.scala-sbt#sbt_2.9.1;0.12.3: not found
I found a build.properties file under project folder, where I could change the 0.12.3 part; for example, after I changed it to 0.11.3, it will succeed until another inompatible issue; However, I want to know how to change sbt_2.9.1 to, say, sbt_2.9.2; I don't find a configuration file, and even I update the sbt to the latest version 0.12.3, still no luck.
my build.sbt file:
organization := "com.typesafe.slick"
name := "slick-examples"
version := "1.0.1-RC1"
scalaVersion := "2.10.1"
scalacOptions += "-deprecation"
anyone please help me.
The Scala version sbt is using internally and the one used for your project are totally independent. Which sbt launcher are you using? Make sure you are using an sbt.version property that works for your sbt launcher.
Again, no need to configure the Scala version for your project at that level. Write a build.sbt file and set scalaVersion to, e.g. 2.10.1 (assuming you use sbt 0.12.x): scalaVersion := 2.10.1

How to inform SBT to consume specific scala version for plugins?

Now I somehow messed up my global sbt plugins (~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt). They were always fine retrieved against Scala 2.9.1 which seems to be the version that sbt 0.11.3 wants, and all the plugins (sbt-gpg-plugin, sbt-idea-plugin) are published against 2.9.1.
Now whatever I do, it persistently tries to find them built against 2.9.2:
[warn] Note: Some unresolved dependencies have extra attributes. Check that these dependencies exist with the requested attributes.
[warn] com.github.mpeltonen:sbt-idea:1.0.0 (sbtVersion=0.11.3, scalaVersion=2.9.2)
[warn] com.jsuereth:xsbt-gpg-plugin:0.6 (sbtVersion=0.11.3, scalaVersion=2.9.2)
...
[error] {file:...}default-50be6e/*:update: sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: com.github.mpeltonen#sbt-idea;1.0.0: not found
How can I fix this, so sbt retrieves the plugins for Scala 2.9.1 as before?
For the sake of completeness, this is how my files look after the suggestions:
// project-home/build.sbt
scalaVersion := "2.9.2"
...
 
// project-home/project/plugins.sbt
resolvers += "less is" at "http://repo.lessis.me"
addSbtPlugin( "me.lessis" % "ls-sbt" % "0.1.1" )
scalaVersion := "2.9.1" // "just in case it helps"
 
// ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt
scalaVersion := "2.9.1" // "just in case it helps"
resolvers += "sbt-idea-repo" at "http://mpeltonen.github.com/maven/"
resolvers += Resolver.url( "sbt-plugin-releases", url( "http://scalasbt.artifactoryonline.com/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases" ))( Resolver.ivyStylePatterns )
addSbtPlugin("com.github.mpeltonen" % "sbt-idea" % "1.0.0")
addSbtPlugin( "com.jsuereth" % "xsbt-gpg-plugin" % "0.6" )
What is even worse, the problem persists, even after I removed ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt. So there are no more references (at least visible to me) to either sbt-idea or xsbt-gpg-plugin. Still I cannot compile any project any more, because sbt still tries to find those two plugins. Epic fail.
You could provide the Scala version of plugin. I didn't use ~/.sbt/, but I think it will works too.
The following is my project configuration using Scala 2.9.2 as my project compiler, and using some pluign that are compiled from Scala 2.9.1. Since Scala 2.9.1 and Scala 2.9.2 is binary compatible, I don't encounter any problem yet.
// MyProject/build.sbt
name := "MyProject"
version := "0.1"
scalaVersion := "2.9.2"
The following is plugin configuration:
// File: MyProject/project/plugins.sbt
import sbt._
import Defaults._
resolvers += Resolver.url("sbt-plugin-releases",
new URL("http://scalasbt.artifactoryonline.com/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases/"))(
Resolver.ivyStylePatterns)
// Resolved to:
//
// http://..../com.untyped/sbt-less/scala_2.9.1/sbt_0.11.3/0.4/jars/sbt-less.jar
//
libraryDependencies += sbtPluginExtra(
m = "com.untyped" % "sbt-less" % "0.4", // Plugin module name and version
sbtV = "0.11.3", // SBT version
scalaV = "2.9.1" // Scala version compiled the plugin
)
Some references:
SBT plugins are versioned to the scala version they were built with.
You're not the only one... Again, no answers.
And another case study, this may have answers.
A possibly relevant quote? " Remember to also remove the project/plugins -directory, because if the directory exists, project/plugins.sbt is ignored."
You can also specify sbtVersion and scalaVersion. There is an overloaded addSbtPlugin -
addSbtPlugin(dependency : sbt.ModuleID, sbtVersion : scala.Predef.String, scalaVersion : scala.Predef.String)
Ok, I went back to all the events that could have led to this. And because I found that other projects were still building, I started to understand that the problem with this particular project B was that it appeared that the two plugins were regular dependencies of project A which it depended on.
When sbt refused to acknowledge the presence of the GPG plugin which I uncommented in ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt, I renamed that file to ~/.sbt/plugins.sbt, and back again. That intermediate position somehow meant that the plugins were not any more plugins (despite being added as addSbtPlugin), but regular dependencies for the project A when I publish that.
I tried to find that messed up A's ivy.xml across all known Ivy2 cache directories. It was not possible to find the one that sbt was obviously seeing.
Long story, short answer: I had to bump the version of A artificially to get rid of the wrong ivy.xml cached somewhere in a hidden place. That forced sbt to re-find A with the correct ivy.xml (not depending any more on the plugins).
Now I'm just worried what happens if I put my global plugin settings into place :-#
Future advise: Never ever ever put anything into ~/.sbt/plugins.sbt. If you need sbt to understand that you changed ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt: Reboot your computer. Don't touch any file.

How to get sbteclipse working with Scala 2.9

I am playing with the spray template project and Scala 2.9.0.1.
I want to work with Eclipse and so I've added the following lines to the build.sbt file
of the spray template project.
resolvers += {
val typesafeRepoUrl = new java.net.URL("http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases")
val pattern = Patterns(false, " [organisation]/[module]/[sbtversion]/[revision]/[type]s/[module](-[classifier])-[revision]. [ext]")
Resolver.url("Typesafe Repository", typesafeRepoUrl)(pattern)
}
libraryDependencies <<= (libraryDependencies, sbtVersion) { (deps, version) =>
deps :+ ("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" %% "sbteclipse" % "1.3-RC2" extra("sbtversion" -> version))
}
I always get this error:
com.typesafe.sbteclipse#sbteclipse_2.9.0-1;1.3-RC2: not found
Of course the directory at the typesafe server does not exist. There is only:
http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/com.typesafe.sbteclipse/sbteclipse_2.8.1/
but sbt is trying to get:
http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/com.typesafe.sbteclipse/sbteclipse_2.9.0-1/0.10.1/1.3-RC2/jars/sbteclipse_2.9.0-1-1.3-RC2.jar
I figured out that 2.8.1 is the scala version sbt uses internaly. But my
sbt version (0.10) uses the scala version set in the build.sbt (scalaVersion := "2.9.0-1") to build the url to download sbteclipse.
Does anyone know how to set this up correctly? How do I tell the build.sbt file that I want to use Scala 2.9 but to look for the sbteclipse plugin at the correct URL?
Are there any plans to include something like sbteclipse to the sbt standard distribution? That would be more than welcome and probably help a lot of beginners with Scala, sbt and Eclipse.
Claus
try some thing like "com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse_2.8.1" % "1.3-RC2....."
using "%%" will automicly add scala version to the library name. using "%" will not.
There is also a shorter way to get sbteclipse into use. Create a file ~/.sbt/plugins/plugins.sbt with this content:
addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse-plugin" % "2.1.0")
