Build License

sbt-fresh is a plugin for sbt to scaffold an opinionated fresh sbt project: it creates an sbt build according to established best practices, creates a useful package object for the root package, initializes a Git repository, creates an initial commit, etc.

Notice: The build definition created by sbt-fresh is incompatible with the -Yno-adapted-args scalac option.

Requirements: sbt 1.0 or higher

Add sbt-fresh to your global plugins definition, which most probably resides under ~/.sbt/1.0/plugins/plugins.sbt:

addSbtPlugin("de.heikoseeberger" % "sbt-fresh" % "<latest-version>")

You can define the following settings in your global build definition, which most probably sits at ~/.sbt/1.0/build.sbt:

import de.heikoseeberger.sbtfresh.License  // Only needed for `freshLicense` setting

freshOrganization     := "doe.john"        // Organization – "default" by default
freshAuthor           := "John Doe"        // Author – value of "user.name" system property or "default" by default
freshLicense          := Some(License.mit) // Optional license – `apache20` by default
freshSetUpGit         := false             // Initialize a Git repo and create an initial commit – `true` by default

Other settings which probably shouldn't be set globally:

freshName := ??? // Name – name of build directory by default; doesn't make much sense as a permanent setting

In order to scaffold a fresh sbt project, just start sbt in an empty directory. Then call the fresh command, optionally passing one or more of the following arguments (hit tab for auto completion) which override the respective settings:

  • organization
  • name
  • author
  • license
  • setUpGit

Example:

sbt> fresh license=bsd3 setUpGit=false setUpTravis=false

The following values are available for the license argument:

  • apache20
  • agpl3
  • bsd2
  • bsd3
  • gpl3
  • lgpl3
  • mit

Layout

sbt-fresh creates a project with the following layout:

+ .gitignore
+ .scalafmt.conf
+ build.sbt                      // build settings
+ LICENSE                        // license file (Apache by default)
+ NOTICE
+ project
--+ build.properties             // sbt version
--+ plugins.sbt                  // sbt-git, sbt-header, sbt-scalafmt
+ README.md
+ src
--+ main
----+ scala
------+ package.scala            // type aliases repointing `Seq` and friends to immutable
