Scala code build with sbt assembly , failing - scala

Question

I am using sbt 0.13.7 and Scala 2.11.4 on a Windows machine to compile my code into a fat jar, that I eventually want to run on a Linux machine.
Below is my build.sbt file:
import AssemblyKeys._
name := "Simple Project"
version := "1.0"
organization := "com.myorg"
scalaVersion := "2.11.4"
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
// Spark dependency
"org.apache.spark" % "spark-core_2.10" % "1.2.0" % "provided",
// Third party libraries
"net.sf.jopt-simple" % "jopt-simple" % "4.3",
"joda-time" % "joda-time" % "2.0"
)
libraryDependencies += Defaults.sbtPluginExtra("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.7.2", "0.11.2", "2.9.1")
// This statement includes the assembly plugin capabilities
assemblySettings
// Configure jar named used with the assembly plug-in
jarName in assembly := "my-project-assembly.jar"
// A special option to exclude Scala itself form our assembly jar, since Spark
// already bundles Scala.
assemblyOption in assembly := (assemblyOption in assembly).value.copy(includeScala = false)
The error I am facing is:
build.sbt:16: error: type mismatch;
found : Seq[sbt.Project.Setting[_]]
required: sbt.internals.DslEntry
assemblySettings
^
[error] Type error in expression
Project loading failed: (r)etry, (q)uit, (l)ast, or (i)gnore?

Answer 1

Are you using sbt-assembly 0.12.0? If so, you don't need assemblySettings any more since it's an auto plugin.
Edit:
You have to include
addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.12.0")
in project/*.sbt like project/assembly.sbt, not build.sbt.
