libraryDependencies for com.eed3si9n#sbt-assembly;0.13.0: not found

Question

I am building a sbt plugin and want to reference assembly task in the sbt-assembly plugin ( to be dependent on my task)

to do this i need to reference it as a library ( as opposed to a plugin), and somehow sbt is not able to resolve it as a libraryDepdendencies

this is what my sbt looks like

sbtPlugin := true

name := "my-sbt-plugin"

scalaVersion := "2.10.6"

sbtVersion := "0.13.0"

resolvers ++= Seq(Resolver.sbtPluginRepo("releases"), Resolver.sbtPluginRepo("snapshots"))

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.13.0")

the output looks like

answer to this question is below, but only the part that says add plugin directive to build.sbt – Attainment

Answer 1

It is not resolving because you did not specify a scala version. It should be something like:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    "com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly_2.11" % "0.13.0"
)

Or, to automatically get the scala version used in project:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    // notice the double %% here
    "com.eed3si9n" %% "sbt-assembly" % "0.13.0"
)

But, sbt-assembly is not supposed to be installed that way. The docs show that you must add the following line to your project/plugins.sbt instead:

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.2")

---

If developing an sbt plugin, the addSbtPlugin line has to go directly into ./build.sbt.

no luck :(, now its looking for repo.scala-sbt.org/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases/com.eed3si9n/… – Attainment

Apologies - I just tried. It seems the plug-ins are differently resolved, e.g. here. You are right, one has to call addSbtPlugin, but not inside project/plugins.sbt but, for plug-in development, directly in ./build.sbt! Took the liberty to revert your edit. – Horseshoe

@Attainment did you figure out how to resolve this - I've been wasting time on the same thing – Animadvert

@alihaider looks like this answer helped @Attainment to solve his/her problem. Basically, if you are using sbt-assembly plugin, you can add addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.2") to your project/plugins.sbt file, but if you are extending it and your project depends on sbt-assembly internal code instead of its tasks, then you must add addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.2") to build.sbt file. – Frances

thanks @Frances I have tried adding addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.2") to assembly.sbt (as per the sbt site), I tried it in plugins.sbt but neither worked. Can you please refer to a build.sbt and plugins.sbt/assembly/sbt for a project that actually worked? Could it be the scala version I am using (2.11.7) - do I need to downgrade? SBT version I am using is 0.13.9. I posted a question as well in case you wish to answer. https://mcmap.net/q/1172345/-trying-to-use-sbt-assembly – Animadvert

The docs now say one has to add addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.5") to project/assembly.sbt . – Millman

Answer 2

In my case, correcting the sbt assembly version from 14.3 to 14.5 did the trick. Please check what's yours and try that.

So in the project\assembly.sbt , it was like-

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.3")

Then I changed it to-

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.5")

Hope it helps!

Answer 3

It is not resolving for Scala - 2.12.

Add the following line in - project/plugins.sbt -

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.5")
resolvers += Resolver.url("bintray-sbt-plugins", url("http://dl.bintray.com/sbt/sbt-plugin-releases"))(Resolver.ivyStylePatterns)

To find the proper path, try the following -

https://dl.bintray.com/sbt/sbt-plugin-releases/com.eed3si9n/sbt-assembly/scala_<version>/

So, using version 2.12, the resolvable path can be found as below -

https://dl.bintray.com/sbt/sbt-plugin-releases/com.eed3si9n/sbt-assembly/scala_2.12/sbt_1.0/0.14.5/ivys/

Thanks a bunch for this. – Cecrops

Answer 4

In addition to the above suggestions I had to add

resolvers += Resolver.url("bintray-sbt-plugins", url("http://dl.bintray.com/sbt/sbt-plugin-releases"))(Resolver.ivyStylePatterns)

to project/plugins.sbt.

Answer 5

I had the same issues, All I did was, remove the ==>

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" %% "sbt-assembly" % "0.14.5")

line from build.sbt and copied to another file, named assembly.sbt at the same project level, where build.sbt is.

It resolved the error.(After 3 hours of reading all posts on the internet. :-) )
